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

"Gigi, can we talk in private somewhere?"…The nanny Sebastian had arranged for Yarick was currently taking care of the child. She took him to the nearby mall for some fun.Meanwhile, Giselle and Wendy arrived at a dessert shop that was decorated adorably. Usually, there would be a lot of patrons at the place. However, most people chose to stay home today because of the rain.Giselle and Wendy found a table in the corner, and the latter ordered two cups of hot chocolate.

    After Sebastian finished shouting, the entire hall fell silent.What did he just say? That the reason Wendy wanted a divorce from him was to go look for the man from that night?Wendy's eyes widened in disbelief. "A man?"Sebastian was her first love. Throughout the past 20 years, Sebastian was the only man for her. How could he say that she had some other man? This was a great insult to her!With a loud smack, Sebastian was slapped across the cheek.This blow had unintentionally dragged him back to his senses. As he watched the tears falling incessantly down his wife's cheeks, panic took over him.Sebastian loosened himself from the grip of the two policemen who were restraining him and hurriedly reached out, wanting to hold Wendy in his arms.

Please hear me out…"Yarick did not understand what had just happened. All he knew was that his parents

    Anthony had to have done this to avenge Wendy. The relationship between the two was a mystery to Giselle. However, she could not speculate. Otherwise, it would reflect poorly on Wendy."You're just an outsider, Giselle. This has nothing to do with you!"What happened did not matter to Sebastian. Giselle simply had no right to stick her nose into their business.Giselle was not upset at all. She clicked her tongue twice before saying, "Did I say anything? Stop being so desperate! Why? Do you see yourself as a coward as well?"Sebastian did not hold back as he yelled, "Giselle Stone!"Jim was the first to chide him. "Mr. Grant, this is the police station. Do mind your volume!"It could be said that they favored Giselle. How dare Sebastian yell at the apple of their eye? Now they had no choice but to use their power on him.Sebastian's frustration only deepened, and his expression became dark. He clenched his fists tightly as he tried to control his anger.Meanwhile, Wendy went

It wouldn't be surprising if Fred had come across it.Fred shook his head. "I can't tell you."He knew Chester would be offended if he spilled the beans.Giselle was confused. Why couldn't he tell her? Was it too awkward to explain?Fred kept quiet, and Giselle didn't press him further. She was here to gather information about Anthony, after all. Once that was done, she didn't intend to linger and interrupt the father-son reunion.As she left the office, she found Danny still waiting outside. "Detective Stone." Danny turned to her.

    Sebastian was nothing but a coward.Emma despised men like him the most. Who was he planning to protect if he couldn't even protect his wife and child? They sneered at Sebastian.Just as Wendy was about to call the police, her phone rang."Hello, is this Ms. Scott? This is the Seaworth Police Department. Mr. Grant has been arrested as a suspect for assault," said the caller.Mr. Grant? Wendy was confused about who the officer was referring to. Sebastian was with her, so who could this "Mr. Grant" be? Only Giselle figured out who it was. After the call ended, Giselle said, "It's Anthony."Sebastian knew who Anthony was. For the past two weeks, their household had been filled with Harold and Linda's constant arguments.Anthony's name kept coming up in their disputes, as Linda was sure Anthony was Harold's illegitimate son. She also warned Sebastian to watch out for the man.Anthony wasn't just here to meddle. He was here to fight for the family inheritance.If he was Harold

    Yarick drank his orange juice, the corners of his mouth stained with ketchup.Hearing Giselle's question, he thought carefully for a moment. "Dad is nice to me."Just as Giselle and Emma thought they were overthinking, Yarick added, "Dad buys me whatever I want. But he never hugs or kisses me unless I ask him to. Mom says it's because Dad is too tired."Never initiating affection. That was weird. But why exactly…Giselle felt she needed to investigate this further. She checked her watch and decided it was time to take Yarick back to the hotel.When they returned, the argument between Wendy and Sebastian seemed to have ended.Sebastian was stood by the window, smoking a cigarette, while Wendy sat on the couch, holding back tears.Seeing Yarick come back, Wendy forced a smile. "Yarick, you're back? Come here."Yarick instinctively sensed Wendy's sadness. He nestled in her arms, rubbing his cheek against hers, showing a sensitive side beyond his age. He was a sweet child.

    Children had incredibly sharp memories. By the age of three or four, they could already remember certain events.Yarick was now five years old. Although he seemed cheerful and lively, he kept many thoughts to himself.As they walked to the elevator, Yarick wiggled in Giselle's arms. "You can put me down. I'm heavy."Giselle told him he wasn't heavy but still respected his wishes and gently put him down.Holding his hands on either side, Giselle and Emma walked alongside him. Yarick kept his head lowered, his sadness written plainly on his face.Once out of the elevator, Yarick looked up at Giselle. "Giselle, are Dad and Mom fighting because of me?"Judging from the question, it was clear that Sebastian and Wendy had frequently quarreled even while they were abroad.Emma and Giselle exchanged glances before they began comforting him."Yarick, you're such a sweet boy! Your parents love you so much. There's no way they would fight because of you. Don't overthink it. Come on, we'll

    The familiar voice and tone—it was Anthony. Giselle calmly ended the call, logged into her email, and found the email Anthony sent. She tentatively opened it. At the top of the email was a photo. After skimming through the text below, Giselle quickly understood the situation."What is it, Gigi?" Emma asked curiously.Giselle handed her phone over. "It seems to be information about the thugs from earlier."But how did Anthony have this information? The question lingered until Sebastian arrived, breaking the tense silence."Wendy! Are you alright? Were you hurt? How's Yarick?" Sebastian looked disheveled, his face tinged with worry. He grabbed Wendy by the shoulders, scanning her and the surroundings.However, his expression darkened when he saw Giselle."What are you doing here?" His accusatory tone angered everyone present. Wendy tried to hold herself back but failed. "Sebastian Grant! Giselle is my friend. Watch your tone!"Giselle had gone from being Wendy's sister-in-

    "Why not?" Giselle frowned.She looked at Wendy seriously. "This isn't about you or Yarick. You and Sebastian aren't divorced yet, so he's still your husband and Yarick's father. You've been hurt, and he has the right to know and resolve this issue."Even if they were divorced, Sebastian was still responsible. He was the one who offended these people. Why should his wife and child pay the price? This was ridiculous.Wendy fell silent. Her hands fidgeted as she struggled with her thoughts. After a moment, she accepted Giselle's suggestions. Under the watchful eyes of both Giselle and Emma, Wendy called Sebastian for the first time in days.The phone rang for a while before it was answered. Sebastian's stern voice soon came through. "Have you changed your mind?"Sebastian believed Wendy was just throwing a tantrum by staying outside. On top of that, his work had been keeping him busy, leaving him with no time to coax her.Charlotte had warned him to not coddle women or they would b

    Giselle hurried to the hotel where Wendy was staying. When she arrived, Emma was already there.Yarick was in Emma's arms, his eyes puffy from crying. The moment he saw Giselle, he struggled against Emma to get down. Emma set Yarick on the ground, and he immediately ran toward Giselle."Giselle." He looked up at her with teary eyes, "The bad guys hurt Mom."Half an hour earlier, a group of thugs had barged in and started smashing the room. In the chaos, Wendy was accidentally elbowed in the nose. She was now in the bathroom, trying to stop the bleeding.Emma had come by to speak to Wendy and learn more about her situation, only to witness the mayhem. Fortunately, she managed to snap a picture of one of the intruders.Giselle glanced at the photo and shook her head. "I don't recognize him." She bent down and picked up Yarick before giving him a piece of candy to comfort him.Yarick held the candy tightly and turned toward the bathroom. "Mom was hurt. I want to give the candy to
