Chapter 199 - 197: Upcoming Graduation II (1/2)

Chapter 199 - 197: Upcohed "That's the probleed Personally, I rather not irls do not have the right to vote or sue, at least we can still work and own property before e it will be most terrible Once married, it's like we cease to exist We become one person with the husband, whoever that bloke would be, and thereafter everything we do would be under the man's direction"

Geoffrey cleared his throat, not liking where the conversation is heading His intended was also in the room, and he knew that she was into her career What if this scares her off?

However, Joan, a real fe "Here's more Once married, ill be under the complete and total supervision of the husband Not only will he have control of all our possessions,that we can't even own soe, he will even have total control of our body Gods, ould be prevented fro, and will forever be condemned to a life of inescapability dependent on our husband's inco nice to say and would just like to express soest that you just keep it to yourself" Douglas rudely interjected

"I have never been so thankful that I live in Guiea and not in Eulio, you pompous arse" Joan answered just as rudely

"I pity the wolas wanted to rebut but everyone was glaring at him "I just said that because if any other were to hear you express those thoughts, you could be brought to trial"

There was an aard silence after that exchange

Mary and Gina did not think much about it because they were nor wrong with society

Serena on the other hand understood too well the status of feainst it, it's just that she knew that change would not happen until a few more decades The best that ladies like her can do was to ensure that they find a good husband If not, then perhaps they should just poison the husband or get rid of him in his sleep

"I personally have seen that woreat job in opening the eyes of our generation Thus, I ae will happen, perhaps not now, but sometime in the future" Leonard expressed

"Wow, Leo, you're so drealas almost wanted to blurt, 'says the adopted child', but just kept his mouth shut

"When it comes to this, I think Windsor is the most advanced That's why I like it here" Joan responded

Geoffrey did not express his opinion He acknowledges the fact that women are just as capable, like how he sees Serena However, with regards to woht, he was neutral

"I believe that our talk is already veering to the side of political so I would like to end our'we are the world' to else, then theis adjourned"

Thewas not the correct venue for their topic earlier Thus, they did not talk anymore and stood to leave the room

Serena too quickly moved so that she can escape from Geoffrey, but he, as always, was a step ahead of her

"Serena, please wait a moment" He called

Everyone looked at theed Joan blushed She coot about it because most of the time they don't act like it, or at least Serena doesn't act like it

When everyone left the roo the conversation earlier, I don't want you to thinkā€¦" Geoffrey explained

Honestly, Serena could care less about what he wanted to say It's not like she will really ht that she can use that topic to her advantage This way, she can successfully get him off her back in the meantime
