The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 12
Jonathan scrutinized Chester's face as he spoke. His gaze was sharp and probing.He couldn't reach Giselle, and neither could the Grants. That was why he'd decided to try his luck with Chester. Giselle had left with him yesterday, after all.This had grated on Jonathan's nerves. He couldn't understand it—didn't Giselle know that she needed to maintain boundaries? Even if they were already broken up, wasn't she slapping him in the face by spending time with Chester? She knew he didn't like his uncle.Chester clearly sensed Jonathan's hostility, but it didn't bother him. He leaned back leisurely, his gaze calm as he faced the latter. "Do I need to report to you on who I spend time with and who I'm close to?"Jonathan was no match for him, whether in terms of status or capabilities. The former clenched his fists, the veins in his forehead throbbing as he suppressed his anger. "She's my fiancée, Uncle Chester.""You two have already broken up," Chester said calmly.Jonathan felt like

Jonathan's eyes glinted when he saw the caller ID. Then, he stood up. "If you can reach Giselle, tell her that running away isn't going to resolve anything."Larry was the second son of the Barton family. Now that he'd ended up in the hospital, there was no way the Barton family would let the matter slide so easily. That was why Jonathan was looking for Giselle. He could help her resolve this issue as long as she gave in and backed down.Giselle only came out of the room when she heard Jonathan leave. Chester's expression was still cold. "Did you hear everything?""Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop," she said, looking at him. "If Jonathan asks you about me again, you can just tell him we don't know each other well."He narrowed his eyes, a little displeased to hear that. It was hard to tell how he felt as he said, "I don't like lying, though."Giselle was taken aback by his words. However, Chester had no plans to reveal his true intentions so soon. He wanted to take things slow. H

Emma brought Giselle to the top bar in Seaworth City. She was evidently a regular there.As soon as they entered the private room, they were greeted by dozens of young men with different personalities and styles. It went without saying that they all looked good.Giselle said nothing, but Emma generously told her to pick first. "We're in the same boat, Ms. Stone. There's plenty of fish in the sea, so don't obsess over that one dumb fish. Pick whichever guy you like—everything is on me tonight."With her words, the men started showing what they were capable of. Giselle was at a loss for words. After a while, she held a hand to her forehead and said, "I'm not picking a gigolo, Ms. Jones.""Come on now. They're just here to drink with you and alleviate your boredom," Emma said.Giselle was insistent on her rejection, so Emma gave up. The private room was a lot more spacious after Emma dismissed the men.Giselle started pouring the drinks. She downed hers, which surprised Emma. "I wou

Someone asked about the situation with Larry. Jonathan narrowed his eyes and said, "Whoever's caused the problem will have to deal with the fallout themselves."He wanted to see how long Giselle could hold out when she had no one to rely on in Seaworth City. As long as she was obedient, he didn't mind putting a roof over her head and giving her some help. They'd been together for seven years, after all. He didn't think she could sever their ties so easily.Unless… Jonathan thought about the gown Giselle had worn to Richard's birthday celebration. His annoyance surged. Who the hell had given her the gown?The others in the room shut up when they sensed his irritation.Outside, Giselle leaned against the wall, thinking about the conversation she'd just heard. Once upon a time, she'd considered these people her friends. Now, they were badmouthing her behind her back. It was revolting.She didn't stay there any longer—the conversation had destroyed her good mood. She went to the restr

The man eyed Giselle lecherously. She recognized him—he was Phil Cross, one of Jonathan's good friends. She'd already forgotten about this, but his words reminded her.Phil wanted to get in her pants but had never dared to do anything about it because he feared retribution from Jonathan. The only time he'd expressed his desire was when Jonathan had brought Charlotte with him to a charity dinner.Phil told Giselle that Jonathan wasn't in love with her anymore and advised her to switch to someone else. He also told her he was willing to take her as his lover despite having a fiancée.Giselle had turned him down and fallen out with him."Does Jonathan know about this?" Giselle asked, trying to stay calm. She quickly tried to devise a plan to get away.There were three men in the room. If Emma weren't drunk, they would stand a chance of getting away. However, Emma was fast asleep now. Giselle would have a hard time fending the three men off, especially if she needed to protect Emma.

Phil looked at Giselle smugly. "Save your energy, Giselle. Even the most arrogant of people will beg like dogs once they've had that!"She felt horrible. She snarled and shouted, "You're committing a crime, Phil!"He burst into laughter as if he'd heard a joke. It took him a while to stop. "Do you have anything to prove that this is a crime? I haven't done anything to you."The drug he'd fed Giselle couldn't be detected by any professional equipment after eight hours. Even if Giselle were to sue him for sexual assault, he had a video to show that she'd willingly given herself to him. He could even use it against her.Phil started fantasizing about how it would feel like to sleep with her. He couldn't be hasty, though. He wanted to wait until she started begging him like a dog. He wanted to stomp all over her pride and dignity.As time passed, the drug started taking effect. Giselle felt a wave of heat wash over her. She clenched her fists, trying hard to remain lucid. "You're desp

Chester stepped on Phil's right hand while the latter watched in horror. He forced the bloody palm onto the floor before grinding it.Phil's tortured cries filled the room, making the server outside shudder. He couldn't help thinking about how ruthless Chester was.Chester's eyes glinted maliciously behind his glasses. Phil's pleas fell on deaf ears. Even he couldn't bear to touch a hair on Giselle's head, yet a scumbag like Phil dared to covet her. The more Chester thought about it, the more intense his desire to murder became."I was wrong, Mr. Fordham! I-I had no idea Giselle was yours… Please, let me go!" If Phil had known about this, he wouldn't have dared do anything to Giselle. Heck, he would've gone for Emma instead of Giselle!His survival instinct won out over everything else, leaving him incapable of wondering what Chester and Giselle had to do with each other. All he knew was that he didn't want to die!"It looks like you don't need your mouth, either." Chester took of

Chester grabbed Giselle's roaming hands and forced her to face him. He asked, "Who am I, Gigi?"Who was he?Giselle was lost for a moment. Then, the heat took over her again. "Jonathan…"The rest of the sentence was incoherent, but mentioning that name itself was enough to make Chester's expression darken."…I'm so hot," she mumbled.If she hadn't brought up Jonathan's name, Chester would probably have been willing to help her cool down before they reached his villa. Now, however…He wrapped his coat around her again and had the driver turn the A/C to the lowest. "Hang on."The driver sped up; the amorous atmosphere had dissipated.Giselle felt tormented. She wanted to break free of Chester's hold but was too weak. Ultimately, she bit his arm, almost as if venting her frustration.He frowned, his expression grim. But when he looked at her face, he couldn't help softening. "Jonathan's unworthy of you, Gigi."…As soon as Chester and Giselle arrived at his villa, Hector, who w

This meant that the current Jonathan believed that Giselle and he were still together, and he was still madly in love with her.But that did not matter.A cynical smirk appeared on Giselle's face before she emptied another can of beer.Emma was no longer surprised. "Post-traumatic amnesia, PTA for short. I had a client like this once." She continued, "The married couple was in the same situation as you are now. They were both high school sweethearts, but the man ended up having an affair."A common phenomenon in today's society.As a lawyer, Emma had come across many such cases.Looking back at it now, it all felt quite surreal. "The man was in an accident, which led to his PTA. His affair was completely wiped from his memory. He only remembered being deeply in love with his wife, and they got back together in the end."That said, Emma had no clue as to whether it was truly a happy ending. Giselle said, "I'll never get back with Jonathan. Not even in a million years."Even

The person standing at her door was none other than Jonathan Lawson, who still had his hospital gown on. His face was pale, and his forehead tightly knitted.The moment he saw that it was Giselle, a spark of surprise flashed across his dark pupils."Gigi!"He reached out, wanting to hold Giselle's hand, but was immediately met by the woman's retreat. In that doe eyes of her was pure repugnance.Jonathan's hand instantly froze mid-air.His pupils constricted. Oddly, a sense of unfamiliarity washed over him as he stared at Giselle's face.But they had been just fine yesterday. Jonathan was confused.Ever since he woke up, everything around him felt strange.Everyone looked so much older, including himself. The youthful look had faded from his face, making him look more like a grown-up.Even Giselle looked different from what he remembered.Jean had told him that he and Giselle had already broken up and that he shouldn't go looking for her.But Jonathan found it ridiculous.He

Emma and Giselle spent most of the evening talking about the Lawsons. Only a small fraction of the time was spent discussing the Stones.Rumor had it that the Stones found their long-lost daughter. As for why it had not been announced yet, the rumors varied.Even after listening to the rumors from her colleagues the entire day, Emma was not able to get a clear picture. This was why she decided she might as well look for Giselle to have an in-depth discussion the entire night."Yeah. The results of the paternity test are out. I'm not related to the Stones." Giselle said this with an indifferent expression on her face.She took a sip of the beer. It burned a little as it traveled down her throat.For a while, Emma was stunned. "Not related? That's impossible. You look just like them…"Even though she had never met Lyla before, her sixth sense as a woman told her that Giselle was the real heiress of the Stones."There are so many people in this world who look alike. Would you say t

It had been almost a year since Chester returned to the country. Hence, it was odd for Jonathan to have asked Chester that question. Later, it was the doctor's explanation that unraveled the confusion that he and Jean had."It seems like he has amnesia."Chester pondered further, an inexplicable look flashing in his eyes. The term "amnesia" did not seem appropriate in this context.Jonathan did not forget anyone. He just had his memory reset to the time he was 18 years old.Back then, the love Jonathan and Giselle shared was for the movie screens, and everyone envied them.Giselle's brows furrowed. "Amnesia?"All Angela did was slip him a few love bugs. What did she do to make him lose his memories?Unless… Jonathan was putting on an act."Yeah. The doctor said that it was trauma-induced. They're not sure when he will recover."Giselle did not linger on this question any further.Chester continued, "Oh, another thing. The paternity test results are out."As soon as he sa

Chester did not elaborate further.This made Harry itch with curiosity.Giselle pushed back her live broadcast work and agreed to go with them.Harry pestered Chester like an annoying pest, but Chester remained tight-lipped, his face cold and stern."Chet, just tell me already!"With Harry's persistent pestering, Chester became annoyed and said, "It's the first day of school, and you're itching to get a day off, are you?"It was way past the new year.The seniors were all going back to school and preparing for the brutal examination that was to come in June.Harry was not the least bit concerned.Since he could not get good grades for the life of him, he thought he might as well find some other way to make a living. Harry could find out where his passion lay and how he would turn it into a career. Fortunately, he had a few older brothers. Otherwise, he would surely have suffered a great deal!Harry immediately pulled a long face. "Chet, can you not rub salt on my wound?""

With the sudden mention of Jonathan's name, Giselle narrowed her eyes."What about him?"Jean was silent for a moment. There seemed to be a lot on her mind as she recalled how Jonathan looked when he woke up.After a brief moment, she said, "You'll know when you see him."It wasn't that Jean didn't want to tell Giselle. She simply did not know how to.After all, the fact that he was suffering from memory deterioration was simply too inconceivable.The doctor said it did not affect his intelligence, only that his memory had regressed to a certain age. As for how long it would take to recover, the doctors were not able to give a definite answer.With Jean hanging up the phone, Giselle had a bad feeling.Nevertheless, she did not give it much thought.After all, she and Jonathan had completely fallen out. It would be downright brazen of him to get any nearer to her.Giselle turned off the lights and went to bed.…The next day, her phone was bombarded with missed calls once ag

Harry: "How'd you know that? Lyla will be using the guest room for the time being as her room's not quite ready yet."The paternity test results for Lyla and the Stones were already out. Logically speaking, Harry should be busy catching up on all the lost time with Lyla. However, for some reason, he just could not bring himself to do that.What's more, Harry would feel uncomfortable anytime he was with Lyla.Being the carefree person he was, Harry had never given much thought to these details. Ultimately, it all came down to the fact that they had hardly spent time together. As such, it was only natural for them to feel distant from each other.But Harry had forgotten something.He'd felt a strong sense of familiarity upon his first meeting with Giselle.Harry: "It's quite late now, so why aren't you asleep yet? Are you thinking about what happened with the Lawsons today?"The matter regarding Jonathan might not have been spread online, but those who went to the charity banq

Giselle had just come out of the bathroom when she received this text message.Her long black hair was wet, hanging behind her back as water droplets fell to the ground.The white bathrobe was loosely wrapped around her body, revealing her delicate, fair skin. Her skin was as white as snow, so much so that it was almost dazzling.Chester was asking her how she was planning to deal with Charlotte.Since laws had to be abided by, getting her killed was out of the question.Besides, Giselle did not think death was the best punishment.The most painful form of torture would be to reduce someone to a point where they begged to be killed.Charlotte had the privilege of enjoying a life of luxury and wealth for over two decades as the fake heiress of the Grant family.People often said that going from rags to riches was easy, but going from riches to rags was hard.There was no way the Grants would be able to make a comeback. Presently, they were inundated by a mountain of debt. If no

The feeling of wanting to escape but not being able to was agonizing.After a while, Angela mustered the courage and said in a trembling voice, "We live in a c-civil society. I could sue you. My husband's from the Lawson family. You can't afford to cross—""Your husband?" Jean could not help but interrupt when she heard those two words.The piercing cold glare in her sharp eyes was comparable to Chester's.There was no doubt that they were siblings."Angela, the divorce certificate hasn't been issued, which means he isn't your husband yet."Knowing Jean's personality, there was absolutely no chance she would get back together with Perry.But that did not stop her from feeling annoyed by Angela.Angela's face instantly turned pale. She bit the bullet and said, "Perry no longer loves you. There's no future for you two, even if you don't get a divorce.""If I don't get the divorce, you'll never be able to be his official wife."Jean hit where it hurt.She had always been strong
