Chapter 182

Penulis: DuckDuckJoe
Giselle was currently in a private room. She had no idea what Vivian and the rest were thinking of her or what they were saying.

Harry excitedly ordered all the signature dishes the restaurant had to offer and said, "Giselle, what else would you like to eat? Feel free to order anything you want! It'll be my treat today!"

He had successfully averted a crisis. Since his family hadn't contacted him yet, he was certain that they didn't know about the parent-teacher conference. As for Finley, from what he knew about her, she wasn't loosely lipped. If she did say anything about it, he would cause a scene!

As he pushed the menu toward Giselle, he still hadn't figured out how Finley found out about the event. After all, she couldn't have suddenly cared about him. The terrifying thought made him shudder, and he shook his head to erase the idea.

"These will be enough." Giselle and Harry had similar tastes. They both loved spicy food and disliked anything sour.

    Right after Finley sent that message, she received a notification."You have been removed from the group."She was confused at first. Then, when she realized that Harry had kicked her out, she scoffed in anger. Vivian was sitting next to her and immediately realized something was wrong. She hurriedly asked, "Finley, you look terrible. Are you feeling unwell?"When Vivian spoke, the other people at the table turned to look at Finley at the same time. Finley tightened her grip on her phone before looking at Jonathan. "Mr. Lawson, I have a question, but I'm not sure if I should ask you about it.""Go ahead.""What's Giselle's relationship with your uncle?"From what Finley had heard, Giselle was once Jonathan's fiancée, and they were in love for seven years. Jonathan and Giselle grew up together and had a strong bond. However, they later split up and went their separate ways.When Finley saw Harry's messages, her heart sank. Upon finding out that Giselle's relationship with Chest

    Thinking that another person was eyeing Chester, Finley's face fell, and she clenched her fists tightly. She knew a man like him would have a lot of admirers.Back when they were still studying, his desk would always be full of confession letters. Wherever he went, there would be people confessing to him as well.At first, Finley felt insecure. But after seeing him reject everyone, she stopped worrying about it. Since he wasn't even interested in someone as impressive as her, she figured she didn't need to waste her time being jealous of people who couldn't compare to her.She stayed strong throughout the 26 years of her life, and Chester remained her favorite person in the world. She wouldn't marry anyone else but him.Finley once tried to skip a grade so that she could be his classmate. However, as soon as she successfully did it, he left. She could never keep up with him. Consequently, all she could do was admire him from behind.She only managed to talk to Chester a little thr

    "I'm sorry," Giselle instinctively apologized.Chester didn't say anything in response. All he could focus on was the subtle scent coming from her. His gaze darkened, and he hurriedly looked downward, suppressing the sudden feelings within him.Seeing how intimate they looked, Jasmine was infuriated. Her face distorted in anger, and she couldn't feel any pain when she dug her nails into her palm."Giselle, why are you here?" she asked.Giselle was so dumbfounded that she almost rolled her eyes. "Shouldn't I be the one asking you that? We were having lunch here, so what were you doing standing outside? I didn't know you enjoyed eavesdropping, Ms. Sinclair."That last sentence caught Jasmine by surprise, and she glared at Giselle. Her sources didn't tell her that there was another woman with Chester. When she confessed to him outside the toilet last time, she heard him saying that he had a girlfriend. He even pulled someone into his embrace.However, Jasmine was too drunk to see th

    Giselle and Finley stood face to face, and the latter looked terrible. She was looking at Giselle with a gaze full of hostility.Surprised, Harry asked, "Finley, why are you here?"When she saw the innocent, dashing face, Finley felt frustrated. She suppressed her anger and said coldly, "I'm having lunch with Vivi and the rest."After saying that, she asked back, "Why didn't you answer when I called you?"She didn't dare interrogate Chester, worried that she might dislike her for it. Regardless of the circumstances, she was still the only woman who was able to stay by his side for so long.Although Chester didn't reply to her messages, he still hadn't deleted her as a friend yet. That proved to her that she still had a place in his heart. After she was done comforting herself, her frown slowly eased up."Did you call me?" Harry sounded surprised. He took out his phone and noticed the screen wouldn't turn on. So, he shrugged helplessly and said, "See, Finley? I wasn't ignoring you

    Finley took a step forward. "Chester…""Ms. Sinclair, I'm sure we're not that close, correct?" Finley could tell he was annoyed at that moment. Her face became pale immediately as she said, "Please don't say that, Chester. We've known each other for a long time now."To be specific, she started noticing him when she started high school. Back then, she had already decided that she would marry him and be the great Mrs. Fordham.She was still a young woman at the time, and when she told her family about it, they liked the idea. That said, they later started to talk her out of it, and she didn't know why. They told her there were a lot of great men in the world and that she shouldn't be too hung up on Chester.Her family even introduced Jonathan to her. However, they both had someone else in their hearts, so they tacitly avoided talking about getting into a relationship. They didn't even contact each other that much, so it wouldn't be farfetched to say that they weren't even friends.

    "No! Absolutely not! Chet would always ignore Finley!" Harry explained anxiously while waving his hands in the air, worried that Giselle might misunderstand the situation.He seldom saw Finley and Chester hanging out alone. The last time this happened was a few years ago. It was New Year's Day, and the Stones were visiting the Fordhams for the holidays. Back then, Chester had just returned to the country, so he was at home too.Finley was the picture of passion around him, but he was always cold toward her. He never even gave her a chance to be alone with him. Conversely, he rejected her displays of affection without hesitation.Chester was a role model to Harry, and the latter was determined not to follow in Sam's footsteps! Sam was nice to every woman he met. He was basically a playboy!"Giselle, you don't have to believe in everyone you meet, but you have to trust Chet. He's the best guy in the world!"Then, Harry started bragging about Chester. The way he exaggerated when he d

    However, the man before her was Chester. Giselle looked straight into his eyes. He wasn't avoiding her gaze, so she figured he wasn't lying. With that, the last hint of frustration in her heart was gone completely.Chester stood up straight and opened the door like a gentleman. "It's cold outside, Ms. Stone. Why don't we talk in the car?"The backseat of the luxurious car was spacious, and he sat opposite her. He crossed his legs and had a thin laptop on his knees. After rubbing the bridge of his nose, he put his glasses back on. As the light from the laptop's screen reflected on his glasses, she couldn't see his eyes clearly.In an instant, all they could hear in the car were their quiet breaths and the keys clacking on Chester's laptop.Giselle couldn't help looking at him, and various weird thoughts came to her mind. She even started to think about some embarrassing things that she had tried so hard to forget. She hurriedly looked away and forced the memory out of her mind."

    There was no emotion in Chester's deep voice. He looked out the window at a black Maybach that was stopped near them. The number plate of the car was special, and it showed how well-respected the person inside the car was. It was the car Jonathan drove around the most.Chester coldly looked away. He didn't care that Jonathan was there, nor did he wonder why his nephew was there at that hour.Meanwhile, Vivian and Jonathan were sitting side by side in the Maybach. Finley and Lindsay weren't around as they had gone their separate ways after leaving the restaurant.Vivian rubbed her eyes in a daze. When she realized they weren't at the Lawson residence, she asked while half-awake, "Jon, why are we here? Mom told us to be home early…"When she saw how cold Jonathan looked, she didn't know what was on his mind. He kept gazing darkly at the building their car was facing. Larry had told him that this was where Giselle was staying.If Jonathan remembered correctly, Chester had bought a un

    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?

    These five minutes were unusually agonizing for the netizens who were waiting restlessly for the tea.At long last, footsteps could be heard approaching from behind. Penny clenched her fists tightly. She tried to calm her erratic heart that pounded against her chest.Her face was ashened."Penny, I'm here! Hey, why didn't you tell me you were bringing your friends along? I would've gotten two more cups of coffee."The bright cheerful voice of a man was approaching. Only when he had stepped in front of her did he realize that Penny had company. Next to her were two unfamiliar faces.One of them looked to be in her 30s.
