The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 33
The surrounding fell into an eerie silence, all attention now focused on Giselle and Jonathan.As Giselle looked down at the check on the ground, Jonathan spoke again. "Don't you just want money? Take the check and leave with your so-called friend."After the incident at Lawson Manor, Jonathan had nothing but disdain for Giselle. Seeing her face again sparked a surge of anger within him.The murmurs from the crowd rose in volume, but Giselle paid them no mind. At the next moment, she bent down and picked up the check.Emma panicked. "Gigi—"Before she could say anything more, Giselle's next action silenced her.With a swift motion, Giselle tore the check into pieces.Jonathan's face darkened immediately. His fists were clenched so tightly they cracked. "Giselle Stone!""I'm not deaf, Mr. Lawson. Keep your voice down."As she spoke, she tossed the shredded pieces of the check into the air and watched them fall like confetti.Jonathan had never been so publicly insulted.His r

When Giselle heard the news, she had just accompanied Emma out of the emergency room.Emma's face was pale, with sweat beading on her forehead. She leaned heavily against Giselle.One moment, she was full of energy, arguing with people, and the next, she was struck with a severe case of gastroenteritis."Ems, you should take tomorrow off and rest at home," Giselle suggested.Emma weakly agreed and trailed behind Giselle toward the infusion room. "Phil deserved it. He really lucked out. He didn't even die."Emma continued complaining while Giselle occasionally agreed with her. Once Emma was settled, Giselle planned to buy some water.She walked to the vending machine and bought two bottles of water. After paying, she felt a shadow loom behind her."Giselle, do you have something to do with Phil's incident?" It was Jonathan, who had just come out of Charlotte's ward.He and Phil were close. The police had already questioned him.With so many suspicious details, Jonathan had a gu

Jonathan had never forgotten about the dress. Every time he thought about it, it made him feel incredibly disgusted."Jonathan Lawson! Just keep your mouth shut if you can't speak properly!" Giselle snapped. She looked at him as if he were trash."What's wrong? Am I right? Did I hit a nerve?" Jonathan was certain that Hector was the one who gave Giselle the dress.His handsome features were shadowed by a sharpness that made it hard for anyone to believe these two had been in a relationship for seven years.Hector silently clicked his tongue in distaste. He said, "Don't be a hypocrite, Jonathan."Years ago, when Jonathan had offered to fund Charlotte's education, it had stirred quite a controversy within their circles.Charlotte's face alone told Hector everything he needed to know—she was far from innocent. Yet Jonathan had fallen for her.Hector didn't inquire too deeply into how their relationship had developed. He just felt Jonathan must have been starving for women.He had

"Is there something you need from me, Mr. Shaw?" Giselle asked."There is, actually," Hector replied honestly. "Remember I mentioned in my text yesterday that my friend's friend is upset, and I asked you what my friend should do to make up for it?"Giselle nodded."So, what should he do?" Hector was genuinely seeking advice.He had no experience in this area, and he truly didn't know why Julia Jameson was upset.Whenever he asked, she denied it, but the tone of her replies had changed drastically. She was cold and distant, unlike her usual warm self, who would reply with emojis.Hector couldn't figure it out.Could it be her time of the month? He recalled that Julia's period should have ended a few days ago.For the first time, the usually carefree Hector had trouble sleeping for several nights.Giselle replied, "For something like this, you need to handle it based on the situation. Write down what happened and send it to me. If you can, include some background on both of you.

The night was deepening, and the parking lot was silent except for the sound of cicadas and the approaching footsteps of a man.The sudden sound made Giselle tense. She clenched her fists and turned, only relaxing when she saw it was Chester."Sorry, did I scare you?" Chester apologized when he noticed the tension in her expression."It's fine." Giselle waved it off. She looked up and met his gaze. "Mr. Fordham, why are you in the hospital this late? Is your stomach bothering you again?"Under the dim streetlight, she could clearly see Chester's pale face. His chiseled features made him look almost ethereal."No, I came to find Hector." Chester had already prepared a suitable reason for his visit while waiting.Hector worked at the hospital, and they were good friends. This made him a perfect excuse.Chester's true purpose had always been Giselle."Oh," came Giselle's simple response, and the atmosphere became subtly awkward.Chester smiled faintly. Suppressing the glint in hi

Giselle's and the Grant family's current situation was entirely Charlotte's own doing."I'm not sure. Did something happen between Gigi and him?" Charlotte pretended not to know, but her face twisted with jealousy.Jonathan responded absently, "Nothing…" He subconsciously lifted his gaze, and the rest of his words faded into silence.The rage in his eyes surged again, so crimson it made one instinctively feel a sense of fear.From his position, he could see most of Giselle's face. She was standing with a man who wasn't Hector, in a posture that looked intimate and affectionate."Jonathan? Is something wrong?"Charlotte's anxious voice snapped him back to reality.Jonathan didn't explain, instead offering a few vague responses before hanging up the phone. When he looked up again, there was no sign of Giselle and the man.…After Giselle picked up Emma, her heart was still racing. Her mind replayed the moment when Chester had gotten so close to her."Don't move. There's a bug i
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 39
In the dimly lit stairwell, Giselle was held by Chester's burning hand around her waist. Their bodies were pressed together, and their breaths intertwined.On the wall, their shadows overlapped, creating an air of intimacy."Gigi, help me take off my glasses." Chester's hoarse, pleasant voice carried a hint of gentle coaxing. As he kissed her collarbone, his warm breath sent shivers down her spine.Giselle's long lashes fluttered lightly. Her fair arms draped over his broad shoulders, and a soft moan slipped from her lips.Her mind was in disarray. She did whatever Chester said.As she removed his glasses, the barrier between them was gone. Chester's kiss grew even more daring.Slowly, he moved upward, and Giselle surrendered to his tenderness.Suddenly, another person burst into the stairwell. "Giselle! You whore! How dare you seduce my uncle?" Jonathan's expression was like that of a husband catching his wife cheating on him.…Giselle immediately jolted awake. Her hai
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 40
With the ten million dollars Giselle had managed to get from Jonathan, she now had a total of 16 million.She had initially planned to split the ten million with Emma, but the latter refused to take a cent.Emma's exact words were, "You keep it. Do I look like I need money? After divorcing Larry, we split the assets down the middle. If you'd known me sooner, Jonathan would've had it worse!"Giselle reluctantly accepted the money. She decided to donate half of the ten million, under both her and Emma's names, to poverty-stricken areas in the mountains. After all, one should do some good deeds.She cleaned the house while waiting for a response from the companies. She applied to nine different companies, but eight rejected her.The reason was always the same. "Our boss had someone read the company's fortune. We can't sign the contract with anyone named Stone."Giselle had expected this, but luckily, the first company she applied to passed her through smoothly. She could sign the co

Giselle continued the live stream for another two hours before she ended the session.Yvette passed the notepad with the lady's contact over to Giselle. "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. A look of concern was written all over Moira's face as she worried about Penny.Penny glanced at her phone. There was no new notification yet.She was feeling uneasy. Because of her boyfriend, she had not had proper sleep for two nights. Even if she did

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. Why are you still not breaking up with him? Are yo
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 347
Half an hour ago, Charlotte was already getting ready for bed when a man suddenly barged into her ward.That man said that he was going to take her to see someone.When she realized that the person he wanted her to meet was Jonathan, she became overcome with fear and staggered a few steps backward, refusing to comply.The incident from the other day left an indelible shadow on her soul.She still wanted to live.Meanwhile, Jonathan really wanted to kill her.The caretaker smiled and said, "Ms. Grant, I'm just notifying 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. She took her phone out and

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. When you get home, try not to let water come in con

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
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 343
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
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 341
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
