The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 25
Giselle had come to return Jonathan's black card. She had packed up and cleared out everything at home. She was planning to sell the condominium as soon as she found herself a place to stay.However, as soon as she set foot inside Lawson Manor, the first thing she heard was "I got bitten by a kitten."Who got bitten by a kitten?Giselle's brain malfunctioned for a short while before she finally understood what Chester had meant. Her gaze landed on the bite mark on Chester's arm. Then, she immediately flushed red.Seeing this, Jonathan understood everything at once. He was seething with rage. He glared angrily at Chester and gritted his teeth. "Uncle Chester, you already have a partner. Shouldn't you stay away from other women?"The last time he went to Chester's house, he'd hear a woman coughing and also saw the women's shoes at the door. Everything showed that Chester was not single.Chester clicked his tongue and looked at the furious Jonathan with a confused look. "Oh, so yo

Giselle had used up a majority of her savings in her past relationship.As of now, the only money she had to her name was whatever payment Emma had settled. So, Giselle was going to have to spend frugally before she found herself a stable job.Land was precious in Seaworth City, so it was only natural that it was a very expensive place to rent. Also, Chester came from a wealthy background. Whatever friends he had would have to be from the same level as he was.Giselle could sense something fishy from the get-go. Without even looking at the rental price, it didn't make sense that wealthy people like Chester's friend would want to rent their places out."It's a seaside villa. The rental is 300 dollars a month."Giselle was speechless. She was now more sure than ever that something fishy was going on.How could a seaside villa only be rented out for 300 dollars a month? Did Chester think she was just born yesterday?300 dollars wouldn't even get her a grass hut in Seaworth City.A

The screen showed someone's dating app profile with a full page of text in the introduction part.Giselle gave the long text a quick once-over and managed to catch the most important part. The paragraph said that both parties were to continue keeping their finances separate and pay for everything separately even after their marriage.Was this prospect even worth considering after reading this term?Giselle asked, "Are you sure this person is trying to score a date instead of a roommate?"She was a relationship counselor. However, people usually misunderstood and thought that she was a matchmaker.At first, Giselle would explain the differences between being a relationship counselor and a professional matchmaker. However, when people started paying her to be a matchmaker, Giselle just shrugged and accepted her fate.After all, both jobs were kind of related to each other anyway. There wasn't too much of a difference.Emma clicked her tongue and said, "I can already see how stingy

Hector knew that the people from the elite social circle wouldn't dare to talk bad about Chester behind his back. However, that didn't mean they would spare Giselle from their mockery and ridicule.He knew they would think Giselle got together with Chester through questionable means. They would deem her shameless for trying to get Chester to support her. In other words, only Giselle would be on the losing end of this situation."There's no hurry," Chester said, his voice low. He then took a sip of coffee and said, "I was the one who liked her first. I won't allow anyone to hurt her with their words."Giselle only deserved nice things, after all."So you're planning to lure her into your trap very slowly? Aren't you worried that someone will get to her before you've even reached your goal?""That's impossible," Chester said with much certainty.Hector continued running his big mouth. "Why is it impossible? Giselle's taste in men is quite terrible, after all. Why else would she i

Giselle nearly thought that she'd heard Chester wrongly. She'd seen landlords raise their prices at the second inquiry—never before had she heard of one who'd insist on the same low rent.Who was the crazy one here? Herself or Chester?Chester continued, "My friend only needs 300 dollars. If he receives too much money, his numbers won't tally, and he'll need to answer to his wife."He spoke so calmly and matter-of-factly that he didn't look like he was lying. Although what he said was ridiculous, Giselle couldn't help but wonder if it could be a real offer.After all, who said that rich, wealthy people couldn't be afraid of their spouses?Giselle forced herself to believe Chester for the time being. If she were to reject him again, then she would be the one who didn't know what was good for her. After all, she didn't have plans to leave Seaworth City at the moment.Giselle signed the contract that very night. Hector was the acting landlord, and his head was still in a blur when h

The weather was close to 90 degrees Fahrenheit outside. Giselle didn't really plan on going out.Still, she decided to meet Emma for breakfast. She then brought her tablet over to the beanbag couch and sat down, facing the rippling blue sea from beyond the floor-length windows.She took a photo of the scenery outside the window and uploaded it to her social media account.The first person to like the photo was Chester. Giselle stared at his name for a long while. It wasn't until Emma suddenly messaged her with a livestream video link that she suddenly snapped back to her senses.Emma was in the livestream video, answering the audiences' questions on the screen. Giselle looked through the questions and saw that most of them were related to divorce."…Make sure to compile all evidence of our husband cheating on you. Then, get a good lawyer who will fight for all your rights. Illegitimate children have the right to inherit the family's wealth. This is protected by law."Giselle watc

Linda stormed into the room, fuming with rage. The moment she spotted Giselle, she slapped her across the face without hesitation.But things didn't go as Linda had expected. Giselle quickly grabbed her wrist, stopping another slap.The pain twisted Linda's face in discomfort. There was no trace of the elegant, high-society lady she usually prided herself on."Giselle Stone! Are you trying to pick a fight? You hit Lottie, and now you want to hit me?"Linda had come to defend Charlotte. After Giselle blocked all their contacts, Linda had to resort to hiring a private detective to track her down. Finally catching her, she had driven through several red lights to get there.But Giselle stood there, calm and composed, despite all the insults and rants from Linda. She shoved Linda's hand away. Her eyes narrowed with a sharp, mocking gaze as she said, "You should take your meds before you leave, Mrs. Grant."The best kind of insult was one without curse words.Linda's impulsive sl
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 32
Linda swiped her arm across the table to knock everything to the floor. Soup splattered everywhere, even staining Giselle's pants.Emma, standing by the door, narrowly avoided the mess."Giselle Stone! Without the Lawson family backing you, you're nothing! If I were you, I'd keep my head down and play nice. If it weren't for Lottie's generosity, do you think you could still stay in Seaworth City?"Charlotte's whole persona was that of an innocent, sweet, kind lady. After being away for over 20 years, she was still magnanimous toward the person who stole her life. Everyone praised her for having a heart of gold. Giselle couldn't stand people like that.She clicked her tongue. "Who says I can't find a new backer now that the Lawson family's out of the picture?"For a few seconds, silence fell. Then Linda snarled, "You shameless bitch! Who'd even want you?"Her insults grew nastier by the second.Emma was about to snap, but Giselle beat her to it. She picked up a used napkin from

Giselle had just come out of the bathroom when she received this text message.Her long black hair was wet, hanging behind her back as water droplets fell to the ground.The white bathrobe was loosely wrapped around her body, revealing her delicate, fair skin. Her skin was as white as snow, so much so that it was almost dazzling.Chester was asking her how she was planning to deal with Charlotte.Since laws had to be abided by, getting her killed was out of the question.Besides, Giselle did not think death was the best punishment.The most painful form of torture would be to reduce someone to a point where they begged to be killed.Charlotte had the privilege of enjoying a life of luxury and wealth for over two decades as the fake heiress of the Grant family.People often said that going from rags to riches was easy, but going from riches to rags was hard.There was no way the Grants would be able to make a comeback. Presently, they were inundated by a mountain of debt. If no

The feeling of wanting to escape but not being able to was agonizing.After a while, Angela mustered the courage and said in a trembling voice, "We live in a c-civil society. I could sue you. My husband's from the Lawson family. You can't afford to cross—""Your husband?" Jean could not help but interrupt when she heard those two words.The piercing cold glare in her sharp eyes was comparable to Chester's.There was no doubt that they were siblings."Angela, the divorce certificate hasn't been issued, which means he isn't your husband yet."Knowing Jean's personality, there was absolutely no chance she would get back together with Perry.But that did not stop her from feeling annoyed by Angela.Angela's face instantly turned pale. She bit the bullet and said, "Perry no longer loves you. There's no future for you two, even if you don't get a divorce.""If I don't get the divorce, you'll never be able to be his official wife."Jean hit where it hurt.She had always been strong

Everyone in the room tensed up upon the sudden mention of Giselle's name.Harry did not think much of it. "Giselle's super nice! The first time we met, she saved my life. If it wasn't for her, none of you would be able to see me today!"He might have exaggerated the story a little. Still, it was evident that Harry liked Giselle a lot.Eugene and Moira knew Harry well. He was a good judge of character. Anyone he claimed to be a good person would turn out to be as such.What's more, seeing Giselle for the first time gave them a sense of familiarity that could not be put into words.Those eyebrows were impeccably refined.It was certainly genetics at work.If not for Lyla and the paternity test report, they might have truly believed that Giselle was their actual child without hesitation.With her hands hidden behind her back, Holly secretly clenched her fists. For a moment, darkness flashed through that gentle expression of hers.It was not until she heard Jackie's voice next to

Charlotte even tried to act pitiful to gain Jonathan's sympathy.It was just too bad that Jonathan had already seen her for who she truly was.With the aphrodisiac taking over his entire body, Jonathan bit Charlotte's lips like an irrational beast.Charlotte kept fighting against him.With her airway cut off, Charlotte's face turned bright red. Just as her struggle against Jonathan was starting to wane, Jonathan suddenly got up and left her.Some of his sanity had returned. With a loud bang, Jonathan locked himself inside the bathroom.He turned on the faucet and let the ice cold water fill the bathtub. Then, he submerged himself into the water, trembling from head to toe.His palm had been cut open. Drops of blood that were eerily red swirled in the cold water.He could not touch Charlotte.Because Giselle would not want him then.Even though Jonathan was thinking rationally right now, the intense heat he was feeling inside his body had not been doused by the cold water.

Did Giselle just ask Charlotte to "do it"?Giselle was clearly trying to set up a trap for her!Although the proposal was enticing, Charlotte could not help but hesitate and feel wary because she had been ensnared in many compromising incidents before.She found it hard to believe that Giselle would be so magnanimous as to let her have Jonathan instead.It just seemed a little fishy!Before Charlotte could even say anything, Jonathan—with red-rimmed eyes and on the brink of losing his sanity—growled, "Get out! Touch me and you're dead!"Charlotte was stunned. She had never seen Jonathan like this before.Tears welled up in her eyes. "Jonathan…"As Charlotte cried his name out, she tentatively reached out to touch Jonathan on the arm. The moment her fingertip touched the corner of his shirt, he roared so loudly that Charlotte immediately shrunk back in fear."Get out!"Jonathan swept his arm across the table, sending everything crashing to the floor. He then staggered to get u

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 and her friends
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 304
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
