Chapter 204

Penulis: DuckDuckJoe
Everything Finley said made sense, and her lackeys agreed with every single word she uttered. However, Chester didn't care at all. He stood in front of Giselle and coldly looked at Finley. It was obvious that he was standing on Giselle's side.

When Finley noticed that, she felt more and more suffocated.

"Why should I do that for you? Are we even that close?" He sounded extremely cold when he spoke in his deep voice.

The color drained from Finley's face altogether. Since they weren't that close, she meant nothing to him at all. So, he didn't hold back as he humiliated her.

Finley had never been humiliated so badly before. Everyone at the laboratory knew how much she liked Chester, and her family had a close relationship with his. Because of that, no one would've expected Chester to say that they weren't close at all.

Chester wasn't planning on protecting Finley's dignity, so he continued, "Besides, Ms. Giselle here isn't just a random person. She's my woman. Do you have any proble

    Suddenly, a shadow fell over Giselle, and she looked up. "Mr. Fordham."The way he stood over her made her feel a little pressured. She felt even more embarrassed when she thought about the inappropriate scenes in her mind. As if he had noticed this, Chester crouched in front of her, his head at the same level as her neck."Ms. Stone, can you help me with something?"His deep dark eyes were like vortexes that could suck her in. Giselle nervously clenched her fists, but she didn't outwardly show how she felt at all.Her long eyelashes were like feathers, covering half of her beautiful eyes. Chester could see his own reflection in her eyes."With what?" she asked."There's a thread caught under this button. Can you help me untangle it?"He was wearing a thin shirt under his jacket. The button on his collar was undone, and his fair skin could be seen. As he said, there was a white thread looped under the button. Since the button was located right under his neck, it was difficult fo

    Giselle was rendered speechless, and her face became bright red. She didn't stand up immediately. Instead, she whispered while in Chester's embrace, "Mr. Fordham, please don't move. My legs are numb, and I need to rest for a while."She hated how the human body worked as it embarrassed her greatly. She figured Chester would disinfect his whole body when he returned home later based on how germaphobic he was.After five minutes, Giselle hurriedly stood up with her head lowered, trying to hide how much she was blushing. Meanwhile, Chester was in a great mood at that moment. He tidied his messy hair and said, "Let's forget it if we can't untangle it. It doesn't matter."After that, they never mentioned what happened again. Giselle let out a long breath of relief, and she only managed to calm down when they left the laboratory.…Meanwhile, Finley had just returned to the Stone residence. She was feeling both infuriated and aggrieved at the same time. Only Moira Hart, Harry and Finl

    Anyone could see through Finley's intentions. Ever since her confession was rejected, she was aware that the Stones opposed her wish to be with Chester.In fact, every member of the family would talk to her in private, trying to change her mind. They hoped she would like someone else instead of waiting for Chester, someone who would never come to like her. Even now, they were still adamant about it.Moira didn't answer Finley's question right away. Instead, she tried to change the subject. Unexpectedly, Finley was stubborn and wanted to get her answers.Feeling helpless, Moira said, "Finley, we can't force a relationship. Forgive me for being blunt, but Chester doesn't like you at all."Chester was aloof, and he wasn't even close with his family, let alone someone else. A healthy relationship should work both ways. So, even if Finley managed to force him to be with her, she still wouldn't be happy.As a mother, Moira didn't want to see Finley digging a grave for herself. Since the

    Moira handed Finley a tissue and said, "Finley, listen to me. Just forget about Chester."As long as Chester didn't like Finley, they would never be together.…Chester made a reservation at a fancy restaurant in the center of Seaworth City. Upon entering the building, a waiter led them to their room. Their private room was located on the third floor, and they could see the astonishing night view through the window.Chester took off his jacket and casually hung it on the rack before pulling out a chair for Giselle like a gentleman. Then, they sat opposite each other.It was so quiet in the room that the sudden notification on Giselle's phone sounded alarming. Giselle looked down at Emma's message. Emma had sent her a location and some pictures, saying, "Gigi, this restaurant has great food. Let's come here together tomorrow!"Emma's location overlapped with Giselle's as they were at the same restaurant that night. After Giselle sent her current location to Emma, the latter sent a

    The cherry tomatoes on the plate looked bright red.Giselle froze with the utensils in her hands and looked surprised. "How did you know?"It was an uncommon allergy, but she wouldn't be surprised if the people closest to her knew about it. Quentin, however, had only met her a couple of times, and they couldn't even be considered friends yet. So, it was really puzzling.The other three people in the room looked at Quentin at the same time. Among the three of them, Chester's gaze looked the most hostile.Still, Quentin was calm, a faint smile playing on his dashing and elegant face."I saw you during the last school anniversary dinner." Worried that Giselle might think he was obsessed with her, he added, "You're the first person I know to be allergic to tomatoes, so it's hard to forget."He went to the same university as her and had secretly noticed her for a long time now. Giselle was like a shining star with an outstanding background and looks. Even though she had a boyfriend ba

    Emma knew Chester liked Giselle, but she couldn't figure out if Quentin felt the same way. After all, Quentin never explicitly showed that he wanted to pursue Giselle.The five people left the restaurant one after another. Maddie hesitated for a long while before standing in front of Giselle. Maddie's eyes were lit up brightly, and she was finally back to her energetic self."Gigi, I really want to thank you this time. If it weren't for you, my life would've been ruined. I'm leaving Seaworth City tomorrow, so I'll get you a gift next time."Without a bastard constantly gaslighting her, Maddie looked more like a woman her age and was delighted about it. Giselle had really helped her a lot this time.Even though she said she didn't want to care about Maddie anymore, Emma still couldn't bring herself to hate the latter. The cousin she grew up with suddenly dated someone incompetent, and Emma had been feeling hopeless about it.Quentin stood next to Emma and the rest, ignoring Chester

    The ambulance siren echoed through the night. Chester was lying on a stretcher with his eyes shut, and his body was covered in blood. The doctor and nurses yelled as they hurriedly made their way to the emergency room, "Get out of the way!"Soon, news of Chester getting hurt started to spread like wildfire. Every media outlet reported it on their platforms, and it became the most trending news in no time."Breaking news! The great Fordham family's son was reportedly in an accident. His fate remains unknown!"The comments section was full of conspiracy theories."My guess is that someone is trying to seek revenge. After all, why would their car flip for no reason? The grudges wealthy families have are just too terrifying!""Did Chester mess with someone?""People sure are petty nowadays, and they would kill someone else for close to anything. Please don't die, Chester! You're so dashing and valuable to this world.""I was there just now and shocked to my core. I don't think he wa

    "Giselle, what's the point of standing here like this? Are you hoping to break Uncle Chester's heart by letting him see you in this state? Stop daydreaming."Although Jonathan didn't want to say that, he still did in the end—and it really stung. Feeling uneasy, he turned his head away and looked upset.Jean had to hold the urge to slap him, and she continued persuading Giselle. "Gigi, listen to me and get your wounds treated first. I'll keep an eye out over here. If anything happens, I'll let you know first, alright?"Giselle looked at the sign over the operation room and took a deep breath. "Alright." Then, she walked toward the other end of the hallway. After she walked a distance, Jonathan caught up with her.He had a taste of her verbal attack before, so he hurriedly said, "I'm only following you because my mom is forcing me, so don't overthink it." After saying that, he kept his mouth shut. That also wasn't what he really wanted to say.Giselle shot a glance at him and didn't

"Do I have to add her on WhatsApp?"Giselle shook her head. "Nope, I'll handle this. You can pack up and get off work now."After Yvette had left, Giselle ate some food before she added the lady to her WhatsApp contacts.Meanwhile, at the Stone residence, Moira was having a conversation with her niece."How's everything, Penny? Has the livestreamer agreed to go with you?The huge living room was brightly illuminated.The theme of the interior design was simple luxury, and the paintings on the walls were extremely tasteful.Moira sat on the couch as she held Penny Stone's hand.

    At first, Yvette had not yet familiarized herself with the work and made a few minor mistakes.After Giselle pointed them out and corrected her, she no longer made the same mistakes. All in all, she was a sharp one.Giselle ended Yvette's probation early and hired her as a full-time employee.Today, while it drizzled outside, Yvette sat at her desk as she cleared Giselle's inbox and uploaded new posts. Meanwhile, Giselle sat in one corner and did her livestream.The number of viewers on the top-right corner of the screen was consistent. Overall, it stabilized at more or less a hundred thousand. "I had a fight with my significant other last night. He called me a drama queen who's hard to please. But I've always been clear about what I want. And when I do, he would say I'm making a mountain out of a molehill and wants me to not be so 'dramatic.'"The comment section went berserk."He's already said such hurtful things to you.

I wasn't asking for your input."Charlotte clenched her hands into fists. The wound that had finally healed tore open once more.The pain made her face turn pale, while the fear caused her entire body to tremble.The caretaker continued, "Ms. Grant, there's no need to be afraid just yet. I forgot to tell you one thing. Mr. Lawson—your dearest Jonathan—has lost part of his memories. He no longer remembers you."Hearing this, Charlotte froze for a moment.

    Caroline said, "I will tell Jean about this. You haven't done anything wrong." She had also heard of Jonathan and Giselle's history.As a woman herself, she could empathize with Giselle the most.She, too, had her partner commit adultery but had instead become the one who was labeled the adulterer. Just the thought of it was aggravating!Caroline said, "If you ever find yourself having to fight him again, just remember to stop before he becomes a cripple."Chester answered, "Okay."Meanwhile, on the other side of town, Jonathan was lying in the hospital, drowning in a haunting nightmare. Vivian stood to the side, mumbling something to Jean. Eventually, Jean interrupted her and said, "That's enough. I'll be here. Go home now. You have school tomorrow."Jean was exhausted. Tons of things had been going on at the research institute recently, and Jonathan had only added more to her plate. Couldn't he just let her catch a break?Jean rubbed her temples.

    Meanwhile, Giselle had just found the first-aid kit and sat next to Chester.The light in the living room was a warm orange, softening the hardened knots between Chester's forehead. He removed his jacket, leaving only a thin shirt on. "This might hurt, so bear with me."Jonathan really did not hold back one bit. Chester's skin was already fair. The contrast only made the purplish bruise even more striking and distressing.Giselle and Chester were growing nearer to each other.They were in such close proximity that he could take in the fragrance of her shampoo.Her attention was on the corner of his lips. She had cotton dipped in iodine to clean the dried blood on the area of the wound.Chester's breathing suddenly came to a halt.His Adam's apple bobbed slightly. His breath was warm, and his gaze was deep.After a while, Giselle retreated to her original position. As she kept the first-aid kit away, she said, "It's done.

    In Giselle's cold eyes, there was nothing but indifference and annoyance."Gigi, I'm in pain…"Jonathan stared at her, the emotions in his eyes flickering back and forth. His weak and vulnerable tone was completely different from the violence he portrayed earlier.He was now trying to use pity to get Giselle to sympathize with him.Jonathan thought that if Giselle still loved him, then he would let everything go.Unfortunately, reality was more cruel than he imagined. Giselle's expression did not even waver.In an instant, the asphyxiating heartache turned into a wild beast, ruthlessly tearing him apart.Jonathan's arm fell to his side helplessly. Suddenly, he staggered backward as if his soul had left him, no longer behaving as arrogantly as he had before.He should be fuming. And Giselle should also be taught a lesson.But Jonathan could not do it.He loved Giselle so much, so why was she doing this to him?"Jon? Jon, what's wrong…"Vivian looked at Jonathan, who was obvi

    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.

    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
