Chapter 119

Penulis: DuckDuckJoe
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.

    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

    When Giselle finally caught up with Jean, everything was already over. Charlotte ran past her while crying with her face covered.Then, Giselle looked at Jean and the gloomy Jonathan. The relationship between the mother and son was tense. Since Jean was often busy with work, they weren't close to begin with. Because of Charlotte, they became even more distant from each other."Mrs. Lawson."Jean could tell from Giselle's gaze that she was worried, so she shook her head and said, "I'm alright."After that, Jean coldly looked at Jonathan. "I don't care what reasons you might have in the future. Stay away from Charlotte from now on!"Charlotte's shameless acts humiliated Jean to no end, and the latter couldn't figure out why Jonathan would like someone like that. After all, how could Charlotte ever compare to Giselle? They were two completely different women, and he just had to pick the worst one!Jean was truly infuriated this time as she found her son's poor judgment embarrassing.

    Jean was dumbfounded. She couldn't believe Chester would call Giselle in the middle of the night. To her, Chester was always cold and aloof, keeping a distance between himself and everyone else. Regardless of gender, that was how he treated everyone around him.Jean couldn't help thinking about the time when she asked him to send Giselle home previously. Back then, he didn't reject the request as well. From what Jean could tell, something fishy was going on.Giselle answered the call in front of Jean. "Hi, Mr. Fordham.""I just heard that you're at the police station. Is that true?"Giselle kept quiet for a moment. She was surprised by how quickly he had received the news. Of course, she knew it had to be Jim who told him about it. When Sebastian was at the station previously, Jim was the one who called Chester to back her up.Giselle lowered her gaze and answered with a light hum. When she felt Jean's gaze on her, she simply said she was about to head home."Let me pick you up."

    Chris continued with another message. "I wasn't doing it on purpose. I was drugged."When he first saw the footage, he felt a little excited. However, when he saw Giselle kicking him in the crotch, the excitement immediately went away. Even when he was sending the message, he could still feel the pain in his lower body. That was the biggest humiliation of his life!Had he been hurt beyond saving, he would never let her go, even if she was innocent! There was no way he would take the initiative to apologize to her like that."Sure. I'll forget about it this time. However, I think you should cut down on your erotic fantasies, Mr. Barton."As Giselle sent that message, she remembered what had happened back then, and she had goosebumps all over her body. She knew he was drugged. However, she wasn't the one who did it, so she could do whatever she had to. After all, she couldn't possibly let him do whatever he wanted to her.When Chris read her message, he suppressed his anger. He only

    Giselle tapped into the news to check it out. Then, a video clip showed up—the same one that led to Charlotte's bullying online. However, the context of the story had changed.She didn't have the patience to go through all the texts. Fortunately for her, someone in the comment section had summarized it."Let me summarize it for everyone. I'm sure everyone is aware of identity theft, right? The woman who splashed the coffee stole the other woman's life as the daughter of a rich family."Giselle's identity had been exposed on the internet. With Charlotte's notorious reputation, their names were ranked high on the trending list.For more than 20 years, Giselle enjoyed the wealthy life that should've belonged to Charlotte. On the contrary, Charlotte had a difficult life. In order to survive, she had to work while she studied. She was the prime example of an inspirational woman.With that, Charlotte's reputation improved a little, and the people online were enjoying the gossip as it un

    Giselle calmly spun the pen in her hand. The light shining from the side highlighted her fair skin beautifully. Those who were attracted to her beautiful hand were incredibly pleased by what they were seeing."How else would I view it? By relaxing in my chair, of course," she answered.With that, the comments became lively again."Well, that was anticlimactic.""Madam, since there's nothing else for you to do now, why don't you analyze those two people's personalities?""I have a feeling that something fishy is going on. Everyone knows that Charlotte has the Grants supporting her."Giselle wasn't planning on going into the details. She had been feeding the flame for three days and had gathered a lot of evidence.She didn't even have to guess how smug the Grants were at that very moment. She wanted them to feel arrogant for the time being. That way, their fall from grace would have a greater impact later.Once Giselle became ruthless, no one could stand in her way."If you real

    Prejudice aside, Jonathan thought Chester was way out of Giselle's league. After all, she was beautiful but didn't have a matching identity. So, even if he saw them kissing, he still thought it was only a fluke.Jonathan thought that Giselle was doing this to piss him off. After all, she was so deeply in love with him. Thus, he didn't see how she could fall in love with someone else in such a short time.It also didn't seem like Chester was being sincere toward her. When they were studying, Chester would get revenge for her whenever she was bullied. However, he wasn't doing anything about her being bullied online at that moment. It proved to Jonathan that Chester was just messing around with Giselle!The more Jonathan thought about it, the more it made sense to him.He held his phone and quietly waited for Giselle's response. Just then, Rick entered the room. "Mr. Lawson, you have an online meeting in ten minutes. Would you like to get ready in the meeting room now?"A few minutes

    In the past, Jean had reminded Jonathan more than once to keep his distance from Charlotte, but those words fell on deaf ears every single time. He never took her words seriously.It was too late for regrets now.Jonathan lowered his head. With a pair of sad eyes and a dejected voice, he mumbled, "I've said it before, Mom. I won't have anyone as my wife if it's not Giselle."His only wish was to marry Giselle. But everyone was telling him that he had cheated on her.Jonathan found it hard to believe that he would cheat on her. He was certain that there had to be some kind of misunderstanding.And the missing piece to this puzzle was none other than that woman named Charlotte. Jean, Francis, and Martha remained silent.

    It was merely a second ago when Giselle had told him to keep a distance from her, yet she was now in his car voluntarily.Jonathan did not move an inch. He still had his back against the inside of the car door as he faced Giselle, intently looking at her."Women are really fickle. Giselle must still have feelings for me. She's just too proud to admit it," he thought to himself.As for the rumors about her and Chester, they might just be putting on an act.Giselle did not know that Jonathan was in the process of gaslighting himself. When she noticed that he was not about to drive any time soon, she frowned and said, "If you're not going to drive, scram."Only then did Jonathan fix his position. He started the engine, and they headed for the hospital.At first, he was in a joyous mood. He tagged behind Giselle upon arrival at the hospital. It was not until he had reached a ward and saw who was seated on the hospital bed that his expression turned sullen.Giselle had gotten into

    "When did Giselle become so… violent?" Jonathan pondered.What had she gone through in the past eight years?For once, Jonathan was perplexed. In his memories, Giselle and him were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Since kindergarten, they were always in the same class.As they began spending more time with each other, the budding romantic feelings gradually snuck up on him.In his mind, Giselle had always been someone demure and considerate. When had she ever shown him this violent side of her?There was one incident that left a deep impression in Jonathan's mind. It was during their senior year.Giselle had been picked on by people from other schools. The moment he heard about this, he became so furious that he stormed over to the other school right away to fight them.If Giselle had always been such a violent person, why was she even picked on in the first place?Jonathan stared at Giselle with deep contemplation.Giselle stared back at him.

    When Penny was done speaking, she directed her gaze toward Lana. "I guess it's time for you to look in the mirror and see for yourself how much of a slut you are!"Lana's makeup had melted off completely. The more she wiped her face, the more her makeup smudged, making her look like a comical clown.Her bare face was already on the less fortunate side. Some people were just ugly both on the outside and on the inside.Lana was livid. She shoved Zayn's hands away and immediately reached out, wanting to grab Penny by the face. "You're just jealous because Zayn likes me. Yeah, you're better than me in every way, but what's the use of that? The woman Zayn loves is me, not you."You got it right. I like going after men who are already taken, and Zayn knows this as well. It's precisely because of this that he asked you out!"I'm sure you don't know anything about this, but every penny that you gave him, he would use it to buy me gifts. On Valentine's Day, you failed to go on a date wit

    Water was dripping from Giselle's face.Lana caught Giselle off guard, so the latter could not dodge in time.The fringe on Giselle's forehead was soaked. Strands of wet hair stuck to her porcelain white skin as water dripped down her face, falling onto the floor."I don't even know you, woman. What makes you think you have the right to slander me? Are you out of your mind?" Lana exclaimed in anger.Moira was sitting next to Giselle, so it was inevitable that some water got onto her.Without caring about herself, she quickly pulled a napkin out and wiped the water off Giselle's face. She felt a surge of anger in her heart.She was about to berate Lana when Giselle suddenly got up from her seat, filled the cup in front of her with water, and threw it at Lana's face.Lana screamed.

    Zayn had come with a business partner today. It was because of Penny that he asked said business partner to give him an extra 30 minutes. He needed to get some stuff sorted out. Only then would he sign the contract.Who knew Penny would just sit there and not say a word after having him come all the way?Didn't she say that she was going to shop for a house today?Why wasn't she saying anything?Zayn cracked open the cup's lid and handed it over to Penny. "Penny, didn't you ask me to come check out a house with you? When I came earlier, I noticed the door to the adjacent building was still open. Why don't we go there now?"Just like that, the flurry of comments started up again."They really have it all thought out. Shopping for a house? Why? So that you and your lover can pick one out together?""This cheap leech of a bastard! Those who're going in person, can you all give him a good beating?
