Chapter 249

Author: DuckDuckJoe
It was unclear when Chester had woken up. His face was still extremely pale. With dark eyes, he stared at Harry.

At that, Harry shuddered. "C-Chet, why didn't you say anything if you're up?"

It was horrifying! Thankfully, he didn't have any heart illness. Otherwise, he would have suffered from cardiac arrest then and there.

Chester lowered his head and coughed. Because of that, his wound was affected. His face then turned even paler.

Giselle quickly reached out to rub his chest. "Are you alright?"

Although her voice was cold, there was concern behind it. Chester was easily moved by this. With a hoarse voice, he answered, "It only hurts a little. Don't worry."

Giselle pressed the bell at the head of the bed. A few minutes later, Hector and the medical team entered the ward.

Harry and Giselle went outside to give the doctors and Chester some privacy. It was only then that Harry let out a sigh of relief.

Upon seeing Harry's behavior, Giselle smiled. Aside from their first meetin

    Linda shouted at Wendy and Anthony like the shrewish woman that she was. Because she hadn't been maintaining her face with treatments for half a month, her old age was evident, and her face was distorted. She didn't look like a pampered, wealthy woman at all.Previously, Charlotte had accompanied Linda to the hospital for a follow-up checkup. When Linda fainted out of anger, the doctor said that she had breast hyperplasia and that she should have checkups regularly. Such a major issue was out of her expectations. Yarick wasn't Sebastian's son, after all! So, how could she tolerate it? Of course, she couldn't. She directly dragged Charlotte to look for Wendy. Without giving anyone a chance to react, she slapped Wendy hard across the face.Harold, who was standing to the side, had a ghastly expression on. He scolded in a low voice, "Linda, that's enough!""Enough? Harold, are you protecting your mistress' son? Don't forget who helped you resolve Grant Group's financial crisis with f

    That crisp sound of a slap brought existing resentment to new heights.With the exception of Giselle and Emma, almost everyone else was startled by this sudden turn of events.Charlotte, who had just been slapped, was in utter disbelief as she held a hand to her cheek. Her face became increasingly flushed, and the throbbing pain made her feel even more humiliated.Wendy recovered from the shock and muttered, "Gigi…"Giselle loosened her hold on Wendy. With a nonchalant attitude and an icy cold gaze, she looked at Charlotte as if she was an ant."Think of it as a free facial massage. You're welcome."Some people could never say anything nice, so something had to be done.Charlotte had always been such a person. While her parents and brother would always spoil her, Giselle would never.Charlotte was just picking on those weaker than her.She could see that Wendy was a softie who was an easy target. That was why she went all out and used harsh words, verbally abusing her.It was

    Arriving at this thought, Giselle took a glance at Anthony's charming face out of the corner of her eyes. She could only think about what a waste it was; she did not say anything out loud. Once again, Giselle placed her attention back on the four Grants in front of her. Having been provoked incessantly, Harold's hand began to rise with intent. However, he saw the nurse approaching with a team of security personnel. He had no choice but to lower his hand.The nurse had come over to tell them off sternly for having caused a commotion."I don't care if you have unfinished business or family drama that hasn't been resolved. This is a hospital! The patients and their family members need to rest. If you're going to fight, please take it outside. Otherwise, I'm going to have these guards take you out."The hospital was a sacred place. It was not some random place where they could just wreak havoc and leave.The nurse had also been observing in secret. It was obvious that the Grants ha

    Meanwhile, after doing the checkup at Chester's ward, Hector had everyone leave the room. Then, he pulled a chair over and sat by the bed."Chet, you should stop running around and just rest. Otherwise, Giselle's gonna run away with some other guy, and when that time comes, you won't even be able to chase after her."His wound kept getting torn open. It was undeniable that Chester was a ruthless person.As a doctor, Hector only spoke the truth. He did not exaggerate one bit.The wound was already in a compromised position. If the recovery period was prolonged and the wound was not healed, there could be irreversible consequences. He did not want to be held responsible for this.Hector managed to secure a cold look from Chester, but he was already used to this. He took this opportunity to tell Chester about the things that happened with Wendy and the rest. He might not be entirely sure of the exact details, but his intuition told him that there had to be an astronomical secret in

    The day after, Anthony intended for Sebastian to catch him coming out of Wendy's room. He had initially expected Sebastian to kick up a huge fuss. He did not expect Sebastian to keep it all to himself.Everything was out of Anthony's expectations. It was not until Wendy gave birth to Yarick that Anthony realized he'd messed up his plans. He had secretly done a paternity test and found out that Yarick was his biological son.It was obvious that Sebastian knew about this as well. However, he still chose not to say anything and decided to just pretend that Yarick was his son.Suddenly, the sound of a slap was heard. This time, it was not from Giselle.It was a slap from Wendy to Anthony. Everything became silent.Anthony prodded his inner cheek with the tip of his tongue. His eyes were lowered as he said nothing.With a trembling voice, Wendy yelled angrily, "You're a monster!"Her perfect life had been completely ruined by Anthony! It was the Grants that he had enmity with, so why

    Everyone there knew who Jonathan was, but it was not the right timing. Other than Charlotte, no one went up to greet him."Jonathan…" Charlotte extended her arms and cried out piteously.Instantly, Jonathan frowned. A trace of disgust flashed across his eyes. He took a step back to avoid Charlotte's hand.Her expression froze instantaneously.Jonathan then said, "Ms. Grant, please. Have some self-respect."These words took everyone, including Giselle, by surprise. Everyone knew about the little 'situation' between Jonathan and Charlotte. It was just that nobody had dared to talk about it behind their backs due to Jonathan's background. All this while, Jonathan had intimately addressed Charlotte. Why did he suddenly address her as 'Ms. Grant' today? Did the two fight? This was the first guess that popped up in everyone's mind. Charlotte looked at Jonathan in disbelief as she whined, "Jonathan…"A few minutes ago, she had sent Jonathan a text message. She had asked him to come

    Giselle had learned from Charlotte to gloat over the other party's misfortune. Emma joined in on the fun as well. Instantly, Charlotte's face became flushed. She felt so humiliated that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She did not expect Jonathan to find out about such a private matter.Giselle Stone must have been the one to reveal her secret! She must have been jealous that Charlotte had taken her place in the Lawson family. She must have not been able to bear the fact that Charlotte was living her best life!It was as if laser beams were about to shoot out of Charlotte's eyes. She was so mad that her head began spinning. Her entire body started to tremble."Jonathan, don't buy into Giselle's lies. It's not what you think. Hear me out…" After barely calming down, Charlotte anxiously tried explaining herself to Jonathan. There was no emotion on his stern face. The way he looked at her was terrifyingly cold. Sebastian stood up at this moment, wanting to advocate for hi

    "Jonathan, I'm sorry. If I did anything to upset you, I'll apologize. Please don't be like this…" Charlotte's tears were falling even more intensely.Ever since her transformation, she had made herself out to be the ultimate beauty. But after the slap and splashing of the drink on her face, her teary face looked a little funny.A trace of repulsion flashed across Jonathan's eyes. "Ms. Grant, there are a lot of people here. Are you sure that you want me to expose all the things you've done?" His deep voice pressed down on Charlotte like a huge mountain.She had sent Jonathan the text message so that he would come to defend her. It was not so that he could destroy her reputation and status!Charlotte had become afraid. She began trembling all over before she ran away in tears.With one of the main protagonists gone, the topic of discussion shifted back to Wendy and the rest.While the entire fiasco with Charlotte was happening, Wendy had already made up her mind.She wiped the tea

    Giselle did not even care to learn how they managed to convince Charlotte to join them.None of it mattered anymore. Their plan was about to fail, after all. Did she seem that weak to them?While she was still deep in thought, there was suddenly the sound of someone kicking at the door. In the midst of that chaos, the sharp voice of a woman could be heard, saying, "Chester, I saw Giselle and Jonathan enter this room with my own eyes!"The door swung open.The bed inside was a mess, but there was no one there.Disarrayed footsteps headed toward the bathroom. Just like that, a group of people appeared in front of Giselle.Finley, who was the leader of the pack, was stunned when she saw that Giselle was still neatly dressed.This was different from what she had imagined!The calm look on Giselle's face did not look like that of someone who had just finished doing the deed. On the other hand, Jonathan, who was lying in the bathtub… looked extremely miserable.The media who had bee

    The room was dimly lit.There was a thick scent of incense in the air. It did not take many inhalations before Giselle started to feel her body getting warm. She quickly covered her nose.Using the only source of light, she squinted her eyes and moved forward.Within seconds, the rough breathing of a man appeared next to her ear.The shadow on the wall was approaching her. When his hand was about to reach her, Giselle dodged to the left with one swift movement, leaving Jonathan embracing the air."Gigi…" The hoarse voice was laced with a hint of lust.The man tugged at the button of his collar as he approached Giselle once again. He was burning all over. It felt like he was being roasted from the inside. He was gradually losing his ability to think rationally.All he could see was the thin figure in front of him.Giselle was left speechless.They had cast a spell on this miserable man because they were not able to do it to her?There was no denying it.

    Angela, Finley, and Charlotte were rendered speechless.This explained why Giselle was able to make so many enemies. Just that mouth of hers could make people abhor her with a burning passion.What now? If Giselle did not go over, they would not be able to carry out their plan!The trio was beginning to grow anxious.Luckily enough, Giselle could sense their desperation. Being merciful, she said, "I mean, I won't go with you unless…"She was undoubtedly baiting them. There was a flash of malice in Angela's eyes as she gritted her teeth and asked, "Unless what?""Unless you let me play with your spell bugs."The moment she finished talking, the lights in the corridor suddenly came back on.Angela's face was as pale as death. How did Giselle know that she practiced witchcraft? She must be trying to trick her!Angela's petite body trembled. Still, she tried her best to maintain a calm composure."W-What spell bug? I don't know what you're talking about…""Oh, really? Then expla

    The crowd was frantic.A tumult of screamings and shoutings bombarded their ears. Chester's voice was swallowed whole by the clamor of the crowd.Giselle moved forward with the flow of the crowd.There was only darkness ahead. Everyone skimmed the walls as they walked. There was a faint source of light in front of them.Before Giselle could even suppress her annoyance, a hand suddenly grabbed onto her wrist.The palm of this person's hand was slightly calloused. Her skin became a little sore from the slight abrasion.It was the hand of a woman.Giselle did not struggle against the woman grabbing her. Instead, she let her pull her forward.They were headed in the opposite direction from everybody else.During this time, Giselle had a sudden moment of clarity.The faint light allowed her to recognize the back and gait of the person in front of her. It revealed the fact that this woman was Angela.Still, Giselle remained unperturbed.As they went up the stairs, the noise and c

    "Mr. and Mrs. Stone, this is my sister, Lyla."Lyla tried her best to smile. In a very soft voice, she greeted, "Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Stone."Jackie had notified his family members in advance. But now that the actual person was standing in front of them, both Eugene and Moira were surprisingly calm.In short, Lyla felt like a total stranger to them.On the other hand, Giselle seemed profoundly familiar.After having compared the two, both Eugene and Moira kept their true feelings concealed.The news of them finding their long-lost biological daughter had not been made public. They had initially planned to announce the news at the charity banquet.However, they were now having second thoughts."Let's talk about this again when your brother and the others arrive."Upon hearing these words, the smile on Holly's face visibly stiffened. Things were not going according to plan.If she had it her way, the Stones would now be making the public announcement that Lyla was their eldest d

    When Giselle was kicked out of the Grants' house, she had nothing to her name.Now, she seemed to be shamelessly clinging onto Jonathan, someone who had everything. Charlotte hated Giselle's guts.How could she, after leaving the Lawsons' world in shambles, be living her best, carefree life?Giselle should be having the worst, most miserable life in the slums! She should be trampled underneath Charlotte's feet forever!In stark contrast to Charlotte's rage, Giselle was much calmer.Giselle looked askance at Charlotte. With a cold and calm demeanor, she said to Charlotte, "We'll see."With the three women embroiled in the same drama, she was curious to see what interesting events would unfold.Just like that, Giselle disappeared from their sight.Finley stared at Charlotte with disapproval and said, "Wasn't what you just said to Giselle an indirect reminder?"When they first met, she had thought that Charlotte was a smart person. However, as Finley got to know her better, she r

    As the head of the Lawson family, Jonathan found himself at the center of media attention, especially after Giselle and Chester's public display of intimacy at the gala. "Mr. Lawson, who is your date for tonight? Do you have any comments on your ex-fiancée, Ms. Stone?" "How do you feel about your ex and your uncle attending the gala together?" "Mr. Lawson, would you give them your blessings if they were to marry?" "Mr. Lawson…" The relentless questioning further agitated Jonathan, who was already in a foul mood. Just then, a photographer shoved a camera right in his face. Jonathan's eyes narrowed dangerously. He suddenly grabbed the camera and smashed it to the ground.The reporters fell silent. Jonathan ignored their stares and strode into the venue, his eyes scanning the place for Giselle and Chester. Despite his search, he constantly found himself intercepted by others. …In a corner of the venue, Charlotte stood alone with a wine glass in hand. As the

    Giselle had only met a few members of the Stone family. The first was Harry. Despite meeting for the first time, it felt as if they had known each other for ages. Many others had also commented on how much she resembled the Stones.Giselle was always curious but never felt the need to find her biological family.Now that Chester had brought it up, Giselle found herself deep in thought. Chester quietly texted on his phone.After a while, he asked again, "Gigi, would you mind if I arranged a DNA test?" They would know if Giselle was the long-lost daughter of the Stone family once the results came back. The daughter they had searched for all these years might have been right in front of them all along. Giselle remembered Harry saying that Lyla's DNA matched the Stone family's. But the documents Chester had shown her… Something was amiss. Lyla and Holly definitely had ulterior motives for infiltrating the Stone family. Thinking of Harry's smile, Giselle agreed to Che

    Chester said, "Harry accidentally spilled water on the guest bed. It's pouring outside… Can I stay at your place tonight, Gigi?"Harry grumbled to himself but eventually gave in, thinking about the money Chester had promised him. "It's all my fault! Giselle, you should let Chet stay the night." Giselle was silent. Something felt off, but she couldn't bring herself to say no. After a moment, she stepped aside. "Come in." Harry also tried to follow them inside, but Chester stopped him. "Head home now. You still have school tomorrow." Chester was firm.Harry was speechless. How could someone be so quick to burn bridges after crossing them? How despicable! After the door closed, Harry turned away and immediately pulled out his phone to vent in their group chat. "Chet is unbelievable! He used his money to force me to act alongside him! Do I look like that kind of person?" Sam: "Did you take the money?"Harry: "Hmph! I maxed out my card. Might as well take it if it's free!"
