Chapter 113

Author: DuckDuckJoe
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 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

    Meanwhile, Charlotte and Jonathan were at Paradise Club. Charlotte was wearing a long white dress, while he was in a suit. She mindlessly walked beside him and looked hesitant."Jonathan, why don't I head back first? It might be inconvenient for me to be around while you're in a meeting."After she left the cafe miserably that afternoon, Charlotte hurriedly returned home to change into a new set of clothes.She gritted her teeth in great hatred, but she couldn't do anything about Giselle. The videos taken in the cafe were spreading all over the internet. Sebastian was upset at her for the first time because of this, and he lectured her with suppressed anger.Charlotte felt aggrieved, but she couldn't talk about it with anyone. Harold would be out the whole day, and she wouldn't see him for a while.As for Linda, no one knew what she was up to recently. She looked anxious, and when Charlotte asked about it, Linda would tell her to stay out of an adult's business.Charlotte didn'

    Jonathan's gaze fell on Giselle, who was standing next to Jean.Giselle calmly looked into his eyes. It was a familiar gaze, but there was no love for him anymore. That was something Jonathan had known for a long time, and he couldn't help clenching his fists tightly."Why can't I be here?" Jean coldly looked at him. As his mother, she managed to stop him from talking to Giselle for the time being."I'm just saying that it isn't appropriate for you to be here."Paradise Club was a proper place of business. However, most of its patrons were powerful businessmen, and it was rare for women to be there. Clearly, Jean and Giselle stood out amongst the crowd"Why can't I bring Gigi here when you can bring Charlotte here?"Jonathan didn't expect Jean to bring up Charlotte so suddenly, and his frown deepened. Bringing Charlotte was a last-minute decision, but Jean was acting as if she already knew it would happen a long time ago.Feeling suspicious, Jonathan looked at Giselle once more.

    It was Chris who pulled Giselle into the room, and he pinned her against the door frame. When she smelled the alcohol on his warm breath, she felt incredibly uncomfortable."So, you're the one they sent, huh?"Giselle was confused when she heard that. After all, he was the one who dragged her into the room. She didn't understand why he would say that. She almost chuckled in anger as her eyes widened incredulously.It was dark in the room, and there was only a single mood light in the corner."They have good taste this time." Chris sounded satisfied as he spoke in a hoarse voice. Just as he was about to kiss Giselle, she suddenly kicked him in the crotch with a raised knee.His pained scream filled the entire room. It hurt so much that the lust he was feeling as a result of the drugs he'd taken was fading away slowly.Chris fell and curled up on the ground. Giselle looked down at him and heard some footsteps approaching from behind. Then, the person in charge of Paradise Club open

    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.

    The moment Giselle heard Jonathan call out her name in full, a look of surprise flashed across her eyes. Had he recovered his memories?Giselle scoffed. "Am I wrong? Mr. Kendrick is asking Harry to pretend that he has feelings for Vivian and to wait until the exams are over to talk about it. Isn't he asking the kid to lie?"Harry has made it crystal clear that he has no feelings for Vivian. A clear rejection is the best solution. You're afraid that Vivian's state of mind might be affected, but what about Harry's?"Every word was carefully chosen.Even though Greg did not explicitly say it, Giselle understood his underlying intention without misconstruing anything.Harry clapped his hands as sparkles danced around his eyes. "You got it! I don't like Vivian. I don't like her now and I certainly won't like her in the future!"Vivan was not his type to begin with. What's more, after learning about the things she had done to Giselle, the chances of him liking Vivian were even slimmer

    Jonathan's towering figure emerged in the doorway.Instead of his usual formal suit, he was dressed in a hoodie and cropped pants.To put it simply, he looked like a mannequin. His handsome face was as cold as ice, making him look unapproachable. As his eyes swept across the room, he suddenly paused when his gaze fell upon Giselle.The hand by his side instinctively clenched. It seemed like he did not expect to find Giselle here.He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but was reminded of the ignored text and what Vivian had told him.He pursed his lips for a moment, forcing the words back down. "Now that we have everyone's guardians here, let's talk about what happened earlier today."Greg Kendrick, the homeroom teacher, pushed his glasses up and cleared his throat before continuing, "I understand how kids your age are going through a phase where you yearn for the opposite gender, but this is the time to be focusing on your studies.

    Even Hector was startled by the absurdity of his own thoughts. He did not dare to venture further.Chester texted back, "Though you won't, I will."The five words almost made Hector's jaw drop to the floor. Did Chester just say he would be the Stones' matrilocal son-in-law?Hector was wondering if he had read the text wrongly. He rubbed his eyes and found that the text remained unchanged.He immediately replied, "Chet, are you serious?"Unfortunately, Chester had already gone offline and did not reply to his last text message.…The next day, Giselle met up with several more candidates who came in for the job interview.During the last round of interviews, she had her eye on a 22-year-old candidate who was a young woman with a rounded face. She wore rectangular-framed glasses with her dark hair tied back into a neat ponytail. She was a person of few words but did things quickly and efficiently. Her sparkling eyes looked full of vigor as well.These were the qualities Giselle

    The temperature kept rising within that confined space.Giselle stared back at Chester with her big, doe eyes. They sparkled in the night, and her red lips were slightly parted, looking every bit an mesmerizing enchantress.Chester, who was already deeply in love with Giselle, found himself unable to resist it.His long lashes drooped, casting shadows over his eyes.The hand by his side curled up in restraint. His dark pupils were bottomless as he looked at her, much like the deep sea.Chester's voice was hoarse as he forced out, "What question?""How are you so confident that I am the Stone family's child?"He was even more sure of it than she was.The paternity test report had also stated that she had no blood relation to the Stone family. But Chester remained adamant that she was.Chester responded eloquently, "I trust my intuition."Their eyes locked mid-air. Hidden tensions simmered.A brief moment later, Giselle flashed a faint smile and arched a brow as she asked, "Bu
