The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 217
Five minutes later, Hector stood back up and said calmly, "From what I can tell, Chet's brain was probably injured from the impact. That's why his memories are in a mess right now."Jean frowned and asked, "Then, what should we do?" She thought it was ridiculous for Chester to mistake his former niece-in-law for his wife."I can't promise you when he'll recover, but a messed up memory won't impact his life that much." Right after Hector said that, Jonathan glared at him and asked, "Are you saying that he might not regain his memory ever again?"Clearly feeling the hostility coming from Jonathan, Hector said with his eyebrows raised, "I didn't say that. However, we doctors aren't gods, and we'll have to leave this to fate. He might get better in a short while or a few years—no one can say for sure."With that, the whole ward fell into silence.Jean had a throbbing headache, and she rubbed her eyebrows, feeling exhausted. Since things had already turned out that way, there was no po

Chester lay on the hospital bed with white gauze wrapped around his head. His face looked pale, and his eyes were dark. Compared to his usual noble appearance, he looked more fragile at the moment.Giselle couldn't help thinking about what he told her before he passed out that day. "Don't worry, Gigi."With that sentence from him, she couldn't reject any request from him at all, even if it was something trivial like feeding him apples. So, she cut the apple into smaller pieces and used a fork to feed him.Since Chester had just woken up, he couldn't eat too much. So, even if he insisted on eating more, she would say no. Chester had no choice but to give up, and Giselle ended up finishing the rest of the apple slices.After a few minutes, Giselle returned to the bedside after washing her hands. She couldn't help wondering how Chester thought they first met now that his memories were all mixed up."Mr. Fordham, do you… do you still remember where we first met?"Chester looked away

However, after investigating for so long, they still couldn't find any clues.The driver that caused the crash died on the spot, and the autopsy concluded that he was drunk driving. The driver also had a simple background. His parents were dead, and he had always been aloof. He didn't have any friends in Seaworth City and lived in a run-down basement.There was no way he would have anything to do with a perfect man like Chester, let alone have a grudge against the latter.Chester narrowed his eyes slightly as he already had a suspicion in his mind. "There was a guy named Joshua Mandell in the laboratory previously. He ran away after stealing some lab result data. I went abroad last time because of this."After Chester caught Joshua, he punished the latter for a while. However, Joshua managed to escape when Chester wasn't paying attention. According to Chester's investigation, Joshua had a special relationship with Charlotte.If the car crash this time had something to do with him,

Silence ensued on the call as Emma's question stumped Giselle. Was Chester faking his amnesia? Giselle figured he had no reason to do that.When Giselle didn't say anything, Emma became anxious. "Hey, Gigi! Are you listening?""Yeah." Giselle returned to her senses, but her mind was in a mess. So, she couldn't answer Emma's question for the time being. In order to stop Emma from talking about it, Giselle changed the subject."Is Linda still visiting your company recently?"The Grants were in a mess at that moment as Harold's affair had already proven to be true. As for having an illegitimate son, the Grant family wasn't sure about it just yet. They had no evidence, and there was no way Harold would admit it that easily.In the eyes of the law, if Linda wanted to get a divorce, Harold would be the one at fault. Thus, he would be on the losing side when splitting their assets. He had worked hard on his company for more than half of his life, so he would never give half of their asse

Giselle shifted to a more comfortable position. Since she was bored, she scrolled through Charlotte's profile on the live streaming platform and watched the latter's live stream.Charlotte had exquisite makeup on, and she had luxurious-looking bookshelves behind her, making her look extremely classy. Seeing how great she was doing at that moment made Giselle think that someone was behind Charlotte's success.Giselle didn't think Charlotte was smart enough to upgrade her setup so suddenly. After all, from what Giselle could remember, Charlotte was a stingy person. It might have to do with Charlotte's upbringing, but she was really calculative when it came to spending money.Thus, even after she returned to her actual family, she still couldn't get rid of that habit. When Giselle was kicked out of the Grant family back then, Charlotte came up with the idea to make Giselle pay them for taking care of her.Charlotte didn't make it too obvious and beat around the bush. However, she dema

Giselle was left speechless, thinking how Chester's aloof image was completely destroyed now that his memories were in disarray. Although he was only calling her dear by text, she could practically hear it. Suddenly, she felt uneasy and didn't know how to reply to him.Just as she was hesitating, Chester's video-call came in. She answered it after switching to her phone's back camera. The footage on her phone shook a little before she saw Chester's pale dashing face appear on the screen.After her experience with him last time, she was now calmer. It was as if she had grown immune to his appearance."Hey, dear." His attractive voice came through the speaker and echoed in the huge living room. It was windy outside, and the sound of waves crashing could be heard. Neon lights shone brightly from the cityscape. Giselle ignored the weird feeling in her heart and calmly answered with a hum.Chester couldn't help looking happy when he received a response from Giselle. Since he didn't have

Looking at the call time of an hour, Chester smiled a little, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow over his eyes. He habitually took a screenshot and hid the name before uploading the picture online with the caption, "Good night."His last post on social media was less than a month ago. It might be a long time for most people, but this was Chester. He never uploaded a single post in the past, and he only started doing it a lot after meeting Giselle.The first comment came from Sam. Sam: "Were you in a video call with Giselle? Have you guys made that much progress? As expected from you, Mr. Fordham!"Hector: "It looks like someone is going to be heartbroken."Harry: "I was wondering why Giselle's line was busy when I tried calling her. So, she was on a video call with you, huh? Let's plan this out. Next time, call her when I'm done playing video games with her. I need to rank up before the season ends!"Chester didn't reply to any of the comments except for Harry's. "Scram."…

Right after Joshua said that, the whole room fell silent. Everyone was shocked to hear that Chester had always liked his own nephew's fiancée, and they wondered if that was how wealthy people had fun.They wanted to gossip, and they secretly paid more attention to the conversation without showing it on their faces.Jonathan narrowed his eyes in hostility, and Joshua was satisfied by everyone's reaction. Joshua happily leaned back in his chair and looked so smug that anyone would want to beat him up."Mr. Lawson, you know how I used to work at your uncle's laboratory, right? I was even an important employee there, so I know a lot of things that you don't."Of course, Jonathan knew that. When he first started talking business with Joshua, Jonathan had someone look into his background. All the information he could gather easily was what Joshua wanted him to see. To get more information about Joshua, Jonathan had to spend more effort on it.At first, he didn't know what was going on b

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

When they were at the hospital the other day, Chester made Vivian feel awfully stressed. This uncle of hers was way too overprotective of Giselle.If Jonathan were to lay a finger on Giselle, Chester would definitely hunt him down. And when that time came, the fact that she twisted the truth would be revealed.Vivian gritted her teeth. The fear she felt outweighed her reasoning. Without a second thought, she rushed over."Jon, stop!"Vivian held onto Jonathan's arm. The blood vessels in his knuckles popped as he squeezed every word out with restraint. "Let go."This was the first time that Vivian had ever seen Jonathan like this. She clenched down on her molars and cried out, "No!"The siblings' double act was absolutely comedic in Giselle's eyes. She rubbed her wrist which had turned red from Jonathan's grip. Then, she turned on her heels, wanting to leave.Jonathan jerked free from Vivian's grasp, stretching out his hands as he tried to grab onto Giselle once again.However,

"Giselle, I need to ask you something."The two looked at each other. One had an indifferent expression while the other looked like they could barely tolerate this request.Giselle tried to free herself but her wrist remained firmly locked in his grip. The heat between them instinctively triggered a visceral sense of disgust in her.Her stomach churned violently, and her expression went dark. "Let go."Jonathan kept his stare on her with eyes that were deep and enigmatic. "If I don't—" Before he could even finish his sentence, he suddenly gasped in pain.Giselle did not care if she hurt him. She had swiftly raised her knee and went for his groin. Even though Jonathan reacted in time, she was too fast for him to avoid the blow entirely.The anger in his eyes surged. He gritted his teeth and exclaimed, "Giselle Stone!"This "new" Giselle felt extremely foreign to Jonathan.The Giselle he remembered was someone gentle and caring. There was never a time she would be this violent.
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 338
The moment Giselle heard Jonathan call out her name in full, a look of surprise flashed across her eyes. Had he recovered his memories?Giselle scoffed. "Am I wrong? Mr. Kendrick is asking Harry to pretend that he has feelings for Vivian and to wait until the exams are over to talk about it. Isn't he asking the kid to lie?"Harry has made it crystal clear that he has no feelings for Vivian. A clear rejection is the best solution. You're afraid that Vivian's state of mind might be affected, but what about Harry's?"Every word was carefully chosen.Even though Greg did not explicitly say it, Giselle understood his underlying intention without misconstruing anything.Harry clapped his hands as sparkles danced around his eyes. "You got it! I don't like Vivian. I don't like her now and I certainly won't like her in the future!"Vivan was not his type to begin with. What's more, after learning about the things she had done to Giselle, the chances of him liking Vivian were even slimmer

Jonathan's towering figure emerged in the doorway.Instead of his usual formal suit, he was dressed in a hoodie and cropped pants.To put it simply, he looked like a mannequin. His handsome face was as cold as ice, making him look unapproachable. As his eyes swept across the room, he suddenly paused when his gaze fell upon Giselle.The hand by his side instinctively clenched. It seemed like he did not expect to find Giselle here.He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but was reminded of the ignored text and what Vivian had told him.He pursed his lips for a moment, forcing the words back down. "Now that we have everyone's guardians here, let's talk about what happened earlier today."Greg Kendrick, the homeroom teacher, pushed his glasses up and cleared his throat before continuing, "I understand how kids your age are going through a phase where you yearn for the opposite gender, but this is the time to be focusing on your studies. "The college entrance examinations

Even Hector was startled by the absurdity of his own thoughts. He did not dare to venture further.Chester texted back, "Though you won't, I will."The five words almost made Hector's jaw drop to the floor. Did Chester just say he would be the Stones' matrilocal son-in-law?Hector was wondering if he had read the text wrongly. He rubbed his eyes and found that the text remained unchanged.He immediately replied, "Chet, are you serious?"Unfortunately, Chester had already gone offline and did not reply to his last text message.…The next day, Giselle met up with several more candidates who came in for the job interview.During the last round of interviews, she had her eye on a 22-year-old candidate who was a young woman with a rounded face. She wore rectangular-framed glasses with her dark hair tied back into a neat ponytail. She was a person of few words but did things quickly and efficiently. Her sparkling eyes looked full of vigor as well.These were the qualities Giselle

The temperature kept rising within that confined space.Giselle stared back at Chester with her big, doe eyes. They sparkled in the night, and her red lips were slightly parted, looking every bit an mesmerizing enchantress.Chester, who was already deeply in love with Giselle, found himself unable to resist it.His long lashes drooped, casting shadows over his eyes.The hand by his side curled up in restraint. His dark pupils were bottomless as he looked at her, much like the deep sea.Chester's voice was hoarse as he forced out, "What question?""How are you so confident that I am the Stone family's child?"He was even more sure of it than she was.The paternity test report had also stated that she had no blood relation to the Stone family. But Chester remained adamant that she was.Chester responded eloquently, "I trust my intuition."Their eyes locked mid-air. Hidden tensions simmered.A brief moment later, Giselle flashed a faint smile and arched a brow as she asked, "Bu

Based on Vivian's understanding of Jonathan, she knew he would definitely hunt that bastard down to fight him tooth and nail.But in this case, that "bastard" was none other than their uncle!If rumors were to spread about a nephew beating his uncle up, they would definitely become the joke of the town!Vivian's eyes were bloodshot. Her mind felt like a tangled mess, and she could not seem to straighten her thoughts out.Chester held Giselle's hand. Then, they walked past Vivian.Before leaving, he coldly said to her, "Wait here. I'll have someone come pick you up."If Vivian wasn't Jean's daughter, Chester would not even bother looking out for her.Vivian could only watch helplessly as the two left.Of all times, Jonathan chose this moment to send her a message."Vivi, you said that Gigi cheated. Is Uncle Chester the guy she cheated on me with?"The fact that he could ask this question meant that he had already asked around.What's more, everyone already knew about Chester

How could she not panic? Vivian had just badmouthed Giselle in front of Jonathan.Who could have known that she would bump into the protagonist immediately after?Vivian tried to pretend that she did not see her. She quickened her steps, wanting to slip out of the hospital, but Giselle happened to look up and see her.Their eyes instantly met.At that moment in time, it felt as if everything in the world had become quiet.Vivian tightened her grip on her bag strap. Suddenly, she flew into a rage out of humiliation, and her cheeks turned red, like a ripe apple.She glared fiercely at Giselle.Giselle, however, only felt perplexed.Sure enough, if she were to compare Vivian with Lindsay, the latter was more likeable.Giselle looked away in a bored manner, with no intention of talking to her.But Vivian felt offended instead.Following the twisted logic of "I can ignore your existence but you aren't allowed to do the same to me", she stomped over to Giselle angrily.As soon as
