Chapter 256

Author: DuckDuckJoe
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 answered the call, and she could hear the sound of a commotion."You little brat. Don't you know whose territory you're on?""It's the Fordham's. What about it? Are you going to tell on me?"I'd like to see for myself if you even have the chance to!""You'd better not run away!"Giselle looked at the caller ID first. She then frowned. "Lindsay?"There was no answer. All she could hear was muffled noise in the background.Giselle did not hang up the phone. Instead, she went to look for Chester.Her arrival came as a surprise to him as Chester was just about to send her a text message. She arrived even before he hit send.At this very moment, he was the only person inside the ward."My dear—" Chester had just called when an eager Giselle interrupted him, saying, "Mr. Fordham, do you have Tony's contact?"If she remembered correctly, Tony was an accomplished hacker. She urgently needed someone with this set of skills to help her locate Lindsay's location.It did not ta

    Giselle ignored Tony's commentary and urged him to call the police.Tony replied, "Chet's already reported it to the police. He even called for backup."Hopefully, Lindsay could hang in there until they arrived. But why did it have to be that place again? Tony had an older brother who also had something happen to him at this very place.Someone had impaled him in the chest with a steel pipe. When he was sent to the hospital, they could not save him and pronounced him dead.For the Quinton family, that day felt like hell had descended on Earth.Back when he still had an older brother, Tony could do whatever he wanted. But now that his brother was gone, and his parents were getting older, the Quinton family needed an heir.There was no one else but Tony who could assume the position as the heir of the Quinton family. Thus, he gave up his passion and learned how to manage his family's business.Now, Lindsay was inside that very factory.They had no intel on the exact situation. Al

    With an innocent expression on his face, Tony raised his hands and mouthed, "It wasn't me." He did not even move an inch."Who's there? Little brat, let's see how well you can hide! No one will come here to save you even if you were to scream your lungs out!"Giselle silently withdrew her gaze and unwittingly clenched the steel pipe tightly in her hands. Tony did the same. They held their breaths as the burly men shone their flashlights in their direction.The shadows on the ground were inching closer.Tony took a deep breath. He was so nervous that his palms began sweating. Right when he had decided to swing the steel pipe, the man's comrade yelled, "Boss! We got her! She's been hiding in here!"The extremely loud knocking sound made the hair on their arms stand.Lindsay had been hiding inside a large pipe. She had bent her knees and shrunk herself into a ball. Her face instantly turned pale. Her shoulders were stained with blood, and her breathing had become weak.The big men

    As the engine roared to life, the scenery outside blurred into a continuous stream. Tony looked out the window, appearing despondent.After Giselle plugged in her phone to charge it, she asked, "Do you… know about Lindsay now?"When they'd stepped into the factory earlier, she'd noticed something wrong with Tony.He clenched his fists, and his knuckles turned pale from the pressure. Forcing a smile, he pretended to be relaxed. "I'm actually fine. It's just my brother… He was stabbed to death here."After Tony's older brother, George Quinton, was stabbed to death, the scene kept replaying in Tony's mind like a never-ending nightmare. For a year, Tony had to rely on medication to continue living. Whenever he couldn't sleep, he would take sleeping pills and melatonin. It only got better after some time.Giselle apologized and stopped asking further questions. It would be forgivable to ask about someone's hurtful past by accident. But if she kept prying after learning what happened,

    Vivian and Lindsay weren't really best friends. After what happened at the hospital last time, their relationship had begun to change. Although they were in the same class at school, they had never sought each other out at all.Vivian never wanted to lose a friend like Lindsay. After all, Lindsay was the only one who Vivian could share her feelings with. Most importantly, Lindsay only liked girls! Since their interests were different, they could avoid liking the same person.So, when Vivian learned that Lindsay was hurt and hospitalized, she skipped school the next day to go to the hospital. Vivian arrived with a fruit basket and some gifts, and the visit started peacefully. However, she accidentally said something to infuriate Lindsay.Vivian's face fell as she looked at the glass shards on the ground. As the daughter of the great Lawson family, she had her own pride to defend."Stop being so arrogant, Lindsay! I've come all the way here to visit you, and this is how you thank me,

    "Vivian, did your brother forget to tie you up at home? Is that why you're here barking at someone else?"Giselle was subtly calling Vivian a bitch. Since they already had a grudge between them, it only became worse after Giselle said that. So, Vivian redirected all the anger she had for Lindsay toward Giselle and glared at her."Giselle! You sure like appearing before me, don't you? You can say whatever you want, but you'll never be able to marry into the Lawsons again!"Vivian had spent a lot of money to learn more about Giselle's sudden change in personality. From what she heard, Giselle was just playing hard to get to gain more attention. After that, Vivian analyzed the situation herself and realized that was exactly what was happening.She didn't believe anyone would be able to change that drastically unless Giselle had been putting on an act the whole time. However, it was clear to Vivian that Giselle wasn't acting as she didn't think Giselle was capable of doing such a thing

    Giselle started coughing violently when she heard that. After all, it was shocking to hear a young lady like Lindsay tell her to get married.Giselle thought her relationship with Chester was a well-kept secret, but it seemed to her that everyone had already found out about it.Her relationship with Jonathan was a thing of the past, and Chester was now her official boyfriend."Even if he's not around, no one will dare bully me."Giselle had already thought about it a long time ago. Wealth and power would always be important in modern society. She might not be able to have both of them, but she had nothing to worry about by herself. If she needed help, she could just ask the people around her for backup.People would often say that one shouldn't mess with a lunatic, and there was a valid reason for that.Lindsay didn't believe that Giselle didn't have special feelings for Chester. Despite being a young lady herself, Lindsay was actually more mature than anyone could've imagined. T

    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. Chester Fordham.Jonathan couldn't bear hearing this name.As soon as he heard this name, he would immediately recall the words Giselle said. "Well, obviously I'm after his body."Absol

    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 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.

    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
