Chapter 331

Auteur: DuckDuckJoe
It was destined to be one hell of an evening.

Lyla was rushed to the emergency room. When she was hurled onto the stretcher, her exposed skin was visibly filled with rashes.

It looked like… an allergic reaction. But she did not even eat any tomatoes.

People began questioning things in silence.

The hospital was less crowded at night, thus it was very quiet. The air was filled with the smell of disinfectant.

Moira waited anxiously outside the emergency room, pacing back and forth.

Meanwhile, Jackie calmly informed the rest of his family. After everything was done, he went over to comfort Moira.

"Lyla will be fine."

Holly chimed in and said, "Lyla has survived so much hardships. She will definitely be fine this time as well."

Although Holly looked calm on the surface, she felt extremely uneasy on the inside.

If something really happened to Lyla, then everything she had planned would go down the drain.

She was too careless tonight. She should have kept a close eye on what Lyla

    Why didn't they become professional actors when they had such great acting skills? They could easily be the next one to receive an annual salary of a million dollars.Why waste the effort and struggle with playing mind games here? It had to be tiring.Giselle stared at Holly with a sardonic gaze, making her squirm in her seat. Fortunately for her, the emergency room lamp went out, followed by the doors opening. A doctor in a white coat walked out.Jackie went up to him and asked, "How's my sister, doctor?""It's fortunate that she got here in time. As family members, you should always keep in mind the patient's allergies. Her body's already weak. She can't withstand any distress."The truth had been revealed. Lyla was allergic to prawns.Soon, she was sent to the VIP ward for observation and rest. The Stone family had been busy the entire evening, so they collectively became exhausted both physically and mentally.Giselle used this moment to excuse herself.Moira had Jackie sen

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    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

    "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.

    An hour later, the car arrived at Lawson Group.The sky looked gray and hazy, while the air was hot.It was now lunchtime, so there were a lot of people going in and out of the building. Giselle texted Chester, letting him know that she had arrived.At the same time, Jonathan, in his sleep-deprived state, was staring at his phone. The expression on his face was so dark that Rick, his assistant, was trembling with fear when he came in to brief Jonathan on his schedule. He did not even dare to breathe."M-Mr. Lawson…""This had better be important!"Jonathan was like an explosive that could detonate any second.Rick gulped. "Mr. Lawson, I've notified the board that the meeting will be held at the conference room at 2:00 pm…"His voice trailed off at the end.With a loud bang, Jonathan threw his phone to the ground.When it crashed onto the floor, the screen shattered into pieces.That immediately shut Rick up.Ever since Jonathan had returned from the hospital, his temper had

    It was the weekend today, so the café was crowded.The chaos swallowed the woman's voice. Nevertheless, Giselle could still hear her clearly.She paused for a moment to ruminate on the things the woman had just said.Her husband had an affair, and the mistress happened to be a very cunning person. More importantly, the woman's daughter was on the mistress' side.To be hit with betrayal on both sides knocked the wind out of her. Every day, the woman had been drowning in her own tears.Judging from her mental state, depression seemed imminent.Giselle took a sip of her coffee before she asked with a calm tone, "The reason you've approached me is because you want to get back together with your husband and daughter, is that it?"In the public's eye, Giselle was someone who helped mend relationships. In fact, she was a professional who had been mending relationships for a long time.One could just search her name on the internet and find nothing but positive reviews.A majority of

    Giselle only went home after it turned dark outside.Penny had transferred some money to Giselle and thanked her once again for today.Penny texted, "I'm not sad at all anymore. If you hadn't gone with me today, I think I would've already died from frustration." As for the aftermath of the storm, Eugene took care of everything. Every single penny that she had spent on Zayn would be retrieved through legal means.Giselle replied, "You're welcome."Only after that did she have the time to check out the link Yvette had sent to her.It was about the incident from earlier today. Videos from the live stream had gone viral.Obviously, it was not from her own live stream but a third party's.Her fans, who had gone down to the location, had captured everything on camera. There was an explosion of comments beneath related videos.One of the videos was of Jonathan. It had been edited to look like he was the hero coming to his damsel's rescue.With the accompaniment of some background

    In the past, Jean had reminded Jonathan more than once to keep his distance from Charlotte, but those words fell on deaf ears every single time. He never took her words seriously.It was too late for regrets now.Jonathan lowered his head. With a pair of sad eyes and a dejected voice, he mumbled, "I've said it before, Mom. I won't have anyone as my wife if it's not Giselle."His only wish was to marry Giselle. But everyone was telling him that he had cheated on her.Jonathan found it hard to believe that he would cheat on her. He was certain that there had to be some kind of misunderstanding.And the missing piece to this puzzle was none other than that woman named Charlotte. Jean, Francis, and Martha remained silent. Jonathan was hopelessly in love with Giselle. But if he was so madly in love with her, why did he cheat on her?And if he was not madly in love with her, then why had he not gotten over her yet?But wait. The reason he was still not over her was mainly due to t

    It was merely a second ago when Giselle had told him to keep a distance from her, yet she was now in his car voluntarily.Jonathan did not move an inch. He still had his back against the inside of the car door as he faced Giselle, intently looking at her."Women are really fickle. Giselle must still have feelings for me. She's just too proud to admit it," he thought to himself.As for the rumors about her and Chester, they might just be putting on an act.Giselle did not know that Jonathan was in the process of gaslighting himself. When she noticed that he was not about to drive any time soon, she frowned and said, "If you're not going to drive, scram."Only then did Jonathan fix his position. He started the engine, and they headed for the hospital.At first, he was in a joyous mood. He tagged behind Giselle upon arrival at the hospital. It was not until he had reached a ward and saw who was seated on the hospital bed that his expression turned sullen.Giselle had gotten into

    "When did Giselle become so… violent?" Jonathan pondered.What had she gone through in the past eight years?For once, Jonathan was perplexed. In his memories, Giselle and him were childhood sweethearts who grew up together. Since kindergarten, they were always in the same class.As they began spending more time with each other, the budding romantic feelings gradually snuck up on him.In his mind, Giselle had always been someone demure and considerate. When had she ever shown him this violent side of her?There was one incident that left a deep impression in Jonathan's mind. It was during their senior year.Giselle had been picked on by people from other schools. The moment he heard about this, he became so furious that he stormed over to the other school right away to fight them.If Giselle had always been such a violent person, why was she even picked on in the first place?Jonathan stared at Giselle with deep contemplation.Giselle stared back at him. "Fancy getting your as

    When Penny was done speaking, she directed her gaze toward Lana. "I guess it's time for you to look in the mirror and see for yourself how much of a slut you are!"Lana's makeup had melted off completely. The more she wiped her face, the more her makeup smudged, making her look like a comical clown.Her bare face was already on the less fortunate side. Some people were just ugly both on the outside and on the inside.Lana was livid. She shoved Zayn's hands away and immediately reached out, wanting to grab Penny by the face. "You're just jealous because Zayn likes me. Yeah, you're better than me in every way, but what's the use of that? The woman Zayn loves is me, not you."You got it right. I like going after men who are already taken, and Zayn knows this as well. It's precisely because of this that he asked you out!"I'm sure you don't know anything about this, but every penny that you gave him, he would use it to buy me gifts. On Valentine's Day, you failed to go on a date wit

    Water was dripping from Giselle's face.Lana caught Giselle off guard, so the latter could not dodge in time.The fringe on Giselle's forehead was soaked. Strands of wet hair stuck to her porcelain white skin as water dripped down her face, falling onto the floor."I don't even know you, woman. What makes you think you have the right to slander me? Are you out of your mind?" Lana exclaimed in anger.Moira was sitting next to Giselle, so it was inevitable that some water got onto her.Without caring about herself, she quickly pulled a napkin out and wiped the water off Giselle's face. She felt a surge of anger in her heart.She was about to berate Lana when Giselle suddenly got up from her seat, filled the cup in front of her with water, and threw it at Lana's face.Lana screamed. With the racket she was making, the entire situation became chaotic.This particular moment happened to be captured by the local fans.The live stream chat box was in a frenzy, and the audience wished

    Zayn had come with a business partner today. It was because of Penny that he asked said business partner to give him an extra 30 minutes. He needed to get some stuff sorted out. Only then would he sign the contract.Who knew Penny would just sit there and not say a word after having him come all the way?Didn't she say that she was going to shop for a house today?Why wasn't she saying anything?Zayn cracked open the cup's lid and handed it over to Penny. "Penny, didn't you ask me to come check out a house with you? When I came earlier, I noticed the door to the adjacent building was still open. Why don't we go there now?"Just like that, the flurry of comments started up again."They really have it all thought out. Shopping for a house? Why? So that you and your lover can pick one out together?""This cheap leech of a bastard! Those who're going in person, can you all give him a good beating? I need to vent or I might die of cardiac arrest.""What a shameless jerk!"The cha
