Chapter 66

Author: DuckDuckJoe
Giselle was certain that Yvonne's mother had not divorced and was still desperately clinging to their broken family. Yvonne was the only thing holding it together.

"I'm already 22. I dyed my hair, and do you know what she called me? She called me a whore…"

Four hours later, Giselle and the others arrived at the Seaworth City Police Station.

As soon as they got out of the car, a middle-aged woman rushed forward and slapped Yvonne across the face.

"So, you're finally willing to come back! Why didn't you die out there with your useless father?" she shouted, her chest heaving with rage as she hurled insults at Yvonne.

Everyone around them fell silent.

Giselle frowned. She stepped forward and stood protectively in front of Yvonne.

Yvonne clutched her reddened cheek, her short hair falling over her face, obscuring her expression.

"I fed you, clothed you, and raised you just so you could run off with those men? Yvonne, can't you think?"

The woman continued her tirade. She even re

    "Ms. Stone." His voice was clear and rich. It cut through the sound of the rain and lingered in her ears.Chester stood at the bottom of the stairs, his umbrella tilted forward, signaling for Giselle to come down and join him.Giselle paused, lost in thought. When had she become this close with Chester? Was it normal for a friend to come out in the rain and pick her up like this?An answer was almost on the tip of her tongue, but she forced herself not to overthink it. She and Chester were two parallel lines, destined never to meet.Chester was the heir to a prestigious family, so he had encountered many types of women before. On top of that, she had once been his nephew's fiancée. That made it even less likely for them to get together.Even if they did, others would surely gossip about her behind her back. They would say, "Giselle couldn't marry Jonathan, so she married his uncle!" It was scandalous just thinking about it.Giselle quickly pushed these absurd thoughts aside.

    To be honest, Vivian held a grudge against Richard. Although she was his biological granddaughter, Richard chose to dote on an outsider instead. What was so special about Giselle? She was nothing more than a child with an unknown parentage!Vivian thought Richard had become senile. He couldn't even tell right from wrong anymore.That was why she had decided to visit only Jonathan today. If it hadn't been for Jonathan asking her to visit Richard, she probably would have found an excuse to leave. A grandfather who favored outsiders wasn't worth her time!Reluctantly, she had come, but to her surprise, Chester was there as well. Chester simply acknowledged her with a soft sound, not even sparing her a glance. Vivian had grown used to this.Her uncle had been working on his research abroad for years. She had only seen him a handful of times in her life. She had heard plenty of rumors about Chester, and with those rumors in mind, she subconsciously feared him. She tried to ent

    "Chester is a good judge of character. If it doesn't work out, I can have him look into a few solutions…"Giselle felt a bit embarrassed.Chester, however, quickly caught on to what Richard was suggesting. Richard wanted him to introduce someone to Giselle.Chester walked over without showing any emotion and casually took Richard's book out of his hands. "Uncle Richard, it's getting late. You should get some rest," he said.Richard chuckled. "Chester, surely you know some single young men? Pick someone with good character and introduce him to Gigi."Giselle quickly interjected, "Grandpa, really, there's no need. I'm not looking for a relationship right now…""No introductions," Chester said, and Giselle's words trailed off with that firm response.He didn't even bother with being polite and had rejected the idea outright. Even Richard was surprised by his decisiveness.Richard didn't ask any further questions and simply watched as Giselle and Chester left.Afterward, though, h

    It was supposedly to protect Giselle's reputation.Charlotte couldn't believe that someone as graceful and impeccable as Chester could fall for someone so far beneath him. Giselle was just a nobody!Charlotte clenched her teeth, her beautiful features contorting with frustration. "That's impossible! Giselle is nothing but a seductress! She couldn't marry my brother, so now she's targeting my uncle! How disgusting can she be?" Vivian cursed angrily for a long time. She only stopped when her throat became dry.She suddenly remembered something. "Charlotte, I forgot to tell you something. Giselle is pregnant with my brother's child!"The news hit like a bombshell, and Charlotte nearly dropped her phone. She fought to steady her trembling hands. "Giselle is pregnant with Jonathan's child? No, that can't be true!"Vivian thought that Charlotte was sad, judging from her reaction. She could tell that Charlotte had feelings for Jonathan, but because of Giselle, Charlotte had been forced

    Giselle only answered the call after waiting for a short while more. "Mr. Fordham, why'd you call so late at night?" she asked.After hearing her cold voice come through the receiver, Chester felt his racing heart calm down. He swallowed hard, and his Adam's apple bobbed. His voice sounded deep and magnetic as he asked, "Are you still mad?"His words left Giselle feeling stunned. A look of surprise appeared in her eyes, and her hand that held the phone slowly clenched, and veins appeared underneath her skin.Did Chester purposely come to explain things to her because he knew she was mad about what he said?Giselle replied slowly, "I'm not mad."Anyway, she and Chester could only be considered friends at the most. Plus, she knew she was quite sensitive as a person. Chester didn't need to apologize to her deliberately.Even when she was with Jonathan, her sensitive behavior was never fully reassured.Chester's behavior caused Giselle to feel an unfamiliar emotion, one that she h

    Additionally, Charlotte was about to marry Jonathan. If she was shown to have a poor reputation, wouldn't she get showered with endless criticism?"Ah… If it weren't for someone having Charlotte's back, she would've gotten thoroughly chewed out this time," Emma said, sneering disdainfully over the phone.Giselle brushed it off and said, "She still has many opportunities to get beaten and scolded."Charlotte could have lived a prosperous and fulfilling life for the rest of her life, but she wasn't satisfied and insisted on stirring up trouble. As long as it belonged to Giselle, Charlotte would try her best and stop at nothing to snatch it away from her.Such clown-like behavior wasn't worth Giselle wasting her time on. After chatting for a while more, Giselle received a message from the property agent. They said that the condominium she previously commissioned off for sale had already been bid on by a buyer for the price of four million dollars.Giselle felt quite satisfied with

    "What did you say? Not selling it anymore? Giselle, don't you lack money? What are you pretending for?" Jasmine jeered. When she heard that Giselle wasn't selling the condominium anymore, she immediately lost her composure."Who said I lacked money?" Giselle retorted.She managed to extort several million dollars from Jonathan, and with her income she earned from livestreaming, she could indulge in any luxury she wanted.Giselle continued to taunt Jasmine. "You're a wealthy heiress. Why do you insist on buying a second-hand condominium? Did your family go bankrupt?" "You're the one that's bankrupt! Giselle, you just can't stand to see others doing better than you! It's no wonder Jonathan doesn't want you anymore!" Jasmine snapped.Jasmine was hot-tempered, and coupled with her opinion of Giselle, she easily exploded at the slightest provocation.Giselle remained calm. Compared to her, Jasmine looked like a loud-mouthed commoner from the streets.This scene was beyond the proper

    This conclusion surprised Giselle greatly. She left after saying goodbye to the property agent.Just then, the property agent lowered his head to respond to a message and suddenly exclaimed, "Why is Mr. Fordham from next door also selling his condo?"…Giselle got ready to head home. Just when she reached downstairs, Emma suddenly called. In a very anxious tone, she asked, "Gigi, are you free now? Can you come to the hospital?"Giselle quickly drove to the hospital.Emma lay weakly on the hospital bed. There was no trace of blood on her face, making her very pale.She was fine when they called in the morning, but then she suddenly started bleeding heavily when she went to the bathroom. As it was her first time encountering this situation, Emma had panicked. The first person she thought of was Giselle."The doctor said it isn't a big deal. It's just an infection," Giselle comforted Emma. She was used to seeing Emma acting decisively and swiftly, so it was surprising to see her

    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.

    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.

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?

"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.

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.

    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.
