Chapter 110

Author: DuckDuckJoe
Giselle was stunned.

It took a moment before she pretended to smile calmly and said, "I see you as a friend of mine. Isn't it normal for me to be concerned about you?"

Her facial expression might not have given anything away, but her palms were sweating profusely.

Chester was giving her too much pressure, especially considering the fact that they were now in the cramped carriage of her car.

Giselle hurriedly rolled down the windows. She could finally breathe when the night breeze blew into the car.

"Is that so?"

She heard his three-worded retort. Giselle could not make out the emotions in his tone. It had even become too overwhelming for her to look directly into Chester's eyes.

She tried her best not to let her mind wander into the forbidden zone.

Nodding, she said, "Yes."

Eventually, she became worried that she was being too blunt and making him feel awkward.

Imitating Tony, she countered, "Do you not see me as a friend?"

Chester could see that Giselle was trying to dive

    "Well, I think it's nice to stay here. To be honest, I kinda like Giselle as well," said Harry. Chester turned around and looked at him with a narrowed, hostile gaze. He was already in his pajamas."Oh?" said Chester.Harry was so carefree that he didn't notice how the mood had shifted. He went to the fridge to grab two bottles of water and said, "When I first saw Giselle, I started taking a liking to her. There's something familiar about her."The way he liked Giselle was different from Chester's. He just wanted to know her better, so he subconsciously took the initiative to talk to her over the past few days.Harry had nothing to hide from her at all and would speak his mind freely. The stories he had were endless as well. He even told her everything about the Stones without holding back. Although they were only strangers who had only met three times, Harry wasn't keeping his guard up at all."Chet, I know you meant well, but I've decided to stay here. I just have to wake up 30

    "Why is Giselle dressed so gorgeously today? Something's wrong!" said Harry.Chester looked at Harry after hearing that. His gaze flickered a little before turning cold and calm again. Then, he said, "Stop overthinking it."After all, Giselle was so beautiful that no one would be able to look away from her, even if she didn't have any makeup on.After Chester walked out of the elevator, Harry hurriedly caught up to him. "Oh, you have to believe my instincts on this, Chet!"The lady who was standing next to Giselle was her best friend, right? Since today's a Monday, she clearly has work to do. However, that lady was dragging Giselle somewhere else. According to my experience throughout the years, they must be on their way to see someone!"Harry was analyzing the situation clearly, and Chester stopped in his tracks after hearing that."They're seeing someone?""That's right! Giselle's single, isn't she? Maybe that lady is introducing a guy to her…" Harry was extremely focused as h

    Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind Giselle. "Quentin, is that really you? When did you come back?"The voice sounded familiar, and Giselle instinctively tightened her grip on her cup. She lowered her complicated gaze.Charlotte gleefully approached them. When she noticed the confusion on Quentin's face, she confidently introduced herself. "It's me—Charlotte! Charlotte Grant?"Quentin continued scanning her with his gaze before finally remembering something about her. Back then, Charlotte was still a poor but hardworking student. She was strong and persistent. Even when other people came after her, she would never admit defeat.There was a reason why he remembered that particular thing about her.When he came out of the library once, he heard her saying indignantly, "First of all, my name is Charlotte Grant! Secondly, I'm busy, so stop with these idiotic games of yours. Last but not least, stop thinking you can do whatever you want just because you're rich!"The memory of the a

    The onlooking crowd didn't dare utter a single word. Most of them were recording the scene on their phones, and their gazes made Charlotte feel uneasy.Giselle calmly put down the empty cup and said, "I guess we're even now."Charlotte clenched her fists tight, and her trembling shoulders betrayed how angry she was. When she heard other people mockingly chuckle at her, she felt more devastated."She deserves it! Why did she have to destroy someone else's relationship at such a young age? Maybe she'll learn her lesson now!""Don't you think she looks like a livestreamer? The one that urged someone else to get pregnant out of wedlock!""Oh! You're right! Isn't she Charlotte Grant?""I finally understand why she could say something so wrong with so much confidence now! She's just a bitch!"With her identity exposed, Charlotte was criticized even more now. The criticisms were loud, and someone even went out to borrow a megaphone to insult her family.Giselle was pleased by this. On

    Giselle had never really thought about how she would deal with Charlotte at all. When she broke up with Jonathan, she didn't even blame Charlotte. If Jonathan really loved Giselle to begin with, then Charlotte's trick never would've worked.Jonathan's indifference was the reason why their relationship ended abruptly. Even if Charlotte hadn't been in the picture, someone else would've eventually caused the breakup.Giselle was just glad that she didn't realize it only after they had gotten married. Since she discovered the truth before it came to that, it was something worth celebrating.After Giselle returned to her senses, she calmly said, "She wants to marry into the Lawsons, right?"Chester considered this for a moment before saying, "You might not be able to marry Jonathan, but we can at least make her call you Aunt Giselle."Giselle wasn't prepared for what he just said, and she was so surprised that she choked on her spit. She bent over as she coughed nonstop, and her eyes

    Giselle returned home to change out of her wet clothes. She slipped into a pair of jeans that made her legs look longer. She also had on a short T-shirt that complemented her fair skin and slim waist. Her long hair cascaded down her back, creating a striking contrast against her skin that was undeniably captivating.As Giselle grabbed herself a cup of water, she saw the trending news online. As she had expected, the crowd from earlier had uploaded the videos they'd taken. Since Charlotte was already infamous, the news skyrocketed in under an hour.Despite the noise in the video, the footage was crystal clear. Everything Charlotte did and the expression she had on her face could be seen clearly. When the people online saw how much her personality had changed, they wondered if she had split personalities."She really didn't have to do that toward the end. It looked so fake!""I knew she wasn't as innocent as she looked. All the other woman did was state the truth, and it was enough

    Jean invited Giselle for dinner at a peaceful restaurant. There was a small stage in the center of the hall, where someone was playing the violin. The restaurant only had one floor, and the private room was located at the end of the hallway. The decorations were simply stylish and exquisite.When Giselle reached the restaurant, Jean was already in the private room. The latter was 46 years old. That said, she looked like she was in her 30s at most due to her meticulous skincare routine. She had aged well throughout the years, and there were no signs of aging on her face at all.When she heard the doors open, Jean looked up and saw Giselle. The cold gaze she previously wore warmed up a little."Oh, you're here, Gigi. Here! Have a seat."Giselle greeted Jean politely before taking a seat in front of her.Jean asked the waiter for the menu and handed it to Giselle. "There's no need for formalities with me. Have a look at the menu and see what you'd like to eat."Some of the dishes

    Jean continued, "I've already told Vivi that she's not allowed to hang out with Charlotte anymore."Charlotte was the beginning of Jean's bad luck. Not only did she bring misfortune to Jonathan, but she also led Vivian astray.Jean frowned deeply as her eyes flashed with disgust, betraying how she truly felt."It's right to have her stay away from Charlotte." Giselle agreed with that decision. As she had expected, there were still decent people in the Lawson family.Although it was too late for Jonathan to turn over a new leaf, there was still a chance for Vivian as long as they did their best with her now. If it was impossible, then Giselle would respect her choice for what it was and say nothing more.After staying silent for a moment, Giselle asked, "Mrs. Lawson, I'm sure you didn't invite me for a drink just to talk about this, right?"Jean met Giselle's calm eyes and was stunned for a brief moment. Then, she nodded. "You sure are smart, Gigi."She had always treated Giselle

    Half an hour ago, Charlotte was already getting ready for bed when a man suddenly barged into her ward.That man said that he was going to take her to see someone.When she realized that the person he wanted her to meet was Jonathan, she became overcome with fear and staggered a few steps backward, refusing to comply.The incident from the other day left an indelible shadow on her soul.She still wanted to live.Meanwhile, Jonathan really wanted to kill her.The caretaker smiled and said, "Ms. Grant, I'm just notifying you. I wasn't asking for your input."Charlotte clenched her hands into fists. The wound that had finally healed tore open once more.The pain made her face turn pale, while the fear caused her entire body to tremble.The caretaker continued, "Ms. Grant, there's no need to be afraid just yet. I forgot to tell you one thing. Mr. Lawson—your dearest Jonathan—has lost part of his memories. He no longer remembers you."Hearing this, Charlotte froze for a moment.

    Caroline said, "I will tell Jean about this. You haven't done anything wrong." She had also heard of Jonathan and Giselle's history.As a woman herself, she could empathize with Giselle the most.She, too, had her partner commit adultery but had instead become the one who was labeled the adulterer. Just the thought of it was aggravating!Caroline said, "If you ever find yourself having to fight him again, just remember to stop before he becomes a cripple."Chester answered, "Okay."Meanwhile, on the other side of town, Jonathan was lying in the hospital, drowning in a haunting nightmare. Vivian stood to the side, mumbling something to Jean. Eventually, Jean interrupted her and said, "That's enough. I'll be here. Go home now. You have school tomorrow."Jean was exhausted. Tons of things had been going on at the research institute recently, and Jonathan had only added more to her plate. Couldn't he just let her catch a break?Jean rubbed her temples. She took her phone out and

    Meanwhile, Giselle had just found the first-aid kit and sat next to Chester.The light in the living room was a warm orange, softening the hardened knots between Chester's forehead. He removed his jacket, leaving only a thin shirt on. "This might hurt, so bear with me."Jonathan really did not hold back one bit. Chester's skin was already fair. The contrast only made the purplish bruise even more striking and distressing.Giselle and Chester were growing nearer to each other.They were in such close proximity that he could take in the fragrance of her shampoo.Her attention was on the corner of his lips. She had cotton dipped in iodine to clean the dried blood on the area of the wound.Chester's breathing suddenly came to a halt.His Adam's apple bobbed slightly. His breath was warm, and his gaze was deep.After a while, Giselle retreated to her original position. As she kept the first-aid kit away, she said, "It's done. When you get home, try not to let water come in con

    In Giselle's cold eyes, there was nothing but indifference and annoyance."Gigi, I'm in pain…"Jonathan stared at her, the emotions in his eyes flickering back and forth. His weak and vulnerable tone was completely different from the violence he portrayed earlier.He was now trying to use pity to get Giselle to sympathize with him.Jonathan thought that if Giselle still loved him, then he would let everything go.Unfortunately, reality was more cruel than he imagined. Giselle's expression did not even waver.In an instant, the asphyxiating heartache turned into a wild beast, ruthlessly tearing him apart.Jonathan's arm fell to his side helplessly. Suddenly, he staggered backward as if his soul had left him, no longer behaving as arrogantly as he had before.He should be fuming. And Giselle should also be taught a lesson.But Jonathan could not do it.He loved Giselle so much, so why was she doing this to him?"Jon? Jon, what's wrong…"Vivian looked at Jonathan, who was obvi

    Jonathan called Chester by his first name. He was not even willing to address him with due respect.Jim sensed the gravity of the situation and immediately had the other officers leave the room, giving the two some privacy.With the sound of the door locking, the atmosphere in the entire room fell below freezing temperature.With tensions running high, nobody dared to even breathe.Jonathan stood in their way, his tall stature overwhelmingly intimidating.As he stood face to face with Chester, their imposing presence seemed to match evenly.Jonathan looked like fireballs were about to shoot out of his eyes while the latter's eyes were as calm as a still, bottomless abyss, ready to erase his opponent's existence without leaving so much as a single trace.Vivian was so overwhelmed that her tears wouldn't come. She was really afraid that Jonathan would beat Chester up.The current situation was way more serious than her writing a love letter to her classmate."Why should I give y

    Jim handled everything professionally."Jon…" Vivian reached out, tugging at Jonathan's sleeve. "Don't let mom know. She's going to be so mad."Vivian knew Jean's temper all too well. If she had not been afraid of Jean finding out about her love letter to Harry, Vivian would not have made Jonathan come pick her up from school.But if Jonathan had not come, the consequent chain of events would not have happened.Jonathan exuded an intimidating energy as he remained silent.Meanwhile, Giselle wasn't the least bit bothered.Harry was the same. After all, he had only done what he did to stand up for Giselle. Even if his family members were to come bail him out, none of them would be mad at him."Ms. Stone."Jim turned toward Giselle and said, "You may have Mr. Fordham come get you."Mr. Fordham. Chester Fordham.Jonathan couldn't bear hearing this name.As soon as he heard this name, he would immediately recall the words Giselle said. "Well, obviously I'm after his body."Absol

    She was after his body. Giselle was going after Chester for his body.Jonathan completely lost all of his sanity when he heard those words, delivering another blow to the board.He could not be bothered about the excruciating pain coming from his knuckles. Through gritted teeth, he demanded answers from Giselle."You've slept with Chester?"Before Giselle could even respond, Harry, who had just returned from retrieving his phone, ran over at full speed.Without any explanation whatsoever, he punched Jonathan in the face."Now that I'm here, don't even think about hurting Giselle!"As someone young, tall, and one who worked out daily, Harry's one punch broke the skin on the corner of Jonathan's mouth.The piercing pain made Jonathan give up all his reasoning.Immediately, the two men broke into a fight.Vivian scrambled to get up from the floor, looking miserable. She wanted to pull them apart but was afraid she might get injured in the process.As such, she just glared at Gi

    When they were at the hospital the other day, Chester made Vivian feel awfully stressed. This uncle of hers was way too overprotective of Giselle.If Jonathan were to lay a finger on Giselle, Chester would definitely hunt him down. And when that time came, the fact that she twisted the truth would be revealed.Vivian gritted her teeth. The fear she felt outweighed her reasoning. Without a second thought, she rushed over."Jon, stop!"Vivian held onto Jonathan's arm. The blood vessels in his knuckles popped as he squeezed every word out with restraint. "Let go."This was the first time that Vivian had ever seen Jonathan like this. She clenched down on her molars and cried out, "No!"The siblings' double act was absolutely comedic in Giselle's eyes. She rubbed her wrist which had turned red from Jonathan's grip. Then, she turned on her heels, wanting to leave.Jonathan jerked free from Vivian's grasp, stretching out his hands as he tried to grab onto Giselle once again.However,

    "Giselle, I need to ask you something."The two looked at each other. One had an indifferent expression while the other looked like they could barely tolerate this request.Giselle tried to free herself but her wrist remained firmly locked in his grip. The heat between them instinctively triggered a visceral sense of disgust in her.Her stomach churned violently, and her expression went dark. "Let go."Jonathan kept his stare on her with eyes that were deep and enigmatic. "If I don't—" Before he could even finish his sentence, he suddenly gasped in pain.Giselle did not care if she hurt him. She had swiftly raised her knee and went for his groin. Even though Jonathan reacted in time, she was too fast for him to avoid the blow entirely.The anger in his eyes surged. He gritted his teeth and exclaimed, "Giselle Stone!"This "new" Giselle felt extremely foreign to Jonathan.The Giselle he remembered was someone gentle and caring. There was never a time she would be this violent.
