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

    Linda stared angrily at Giselle, believing that she still hadn't given up on Jonathan. "Giselle, listen here. You're not even qualified to marry into the Lawson family. Do me a favor and quickly get lost! Don't even think about bothering Lottie and Jonathan!"As she spoke, she approached Giselle and grabbed her hand.Since Sebastian was by her side today, she was full of confidence. She was determined to humiliate Giselle the same way she did to her last time.A group of passersby started to gather around them, curious about the drama that was unfolding.Giselle coldly watched as Linda got closer and closer to her. Seeing her contorted expression made Giselle's stomach churn.When Linda reached out to her, Giselle threw what she was holding out. The hot oatmeal spilled from the plastic container. Linda screamed as it burned her hands, and red welts started appearing.Sebastian immediately stepped forward and held onto Linda's shoulder. His handsome face stared darkly at Giselle.

    Was it meaningful to have that kind of relationship? However, one thing that had to be said was that it was quite nice to have someone like Giselle as a wife. Even when her husband was indulging himself outside, she didn't dare to say anything against it.Jonathan didn't answer Larry and simply watched the video again.Larry couldn't help but ask again, " Jon, you don't think Giselle will go look for your grandfather, right?""I don't know."His answer stopped Larry from asking any more questions. He rubbed his nose and said, "Come on. I'm not asking too many questions. "Anyway, be careful of Giselle. She's a complete lunatic! She can't stand seeing others do better than her. She must have instigated the divorce between Emma and me."Just the mention of this got Larry all fired up. Which man was truly innocent when it came to messing around? He didn't do anything out of line, yet in the end, he got beaten up, and his wife ran off.Larry gritted his teeth in seething anger.Jon

    Emma magnified a photo of Charlotte's face. She was covered in tears and snot, and both her cheeks were severely bruised and beaten. This situation couldn't be simply described as disgraceful."I really enjoyed watching this today. Charlotte was just born to get beaten up. She deserves it for leading young women astray!" Emma exclaimed.She suddenly felt as though the heavy feeling on her chest had lightened, and her frail body seemed to have gotten some relief.She turned the photo of Charlotte's face into a sticker and said, "Gigi, if Charlotte harasses you again in the future, just send this sticker to her!"Giselle silently saved it. After arriving at the hospital lobby, she asked Emma, "What's Yvonne's mom's background?"Considering that Charlotte was the precious daughter of the Grant family, it would make no sense if the other party had no prominent background and yet still beat Charlotte to that extent. Giselle certainly didn't believe that.Emma lay back in bed and said,

    "Charlotte urged Yvonne to elope and run away with someone. She almost made a mistake. Mrs. Sullivan was just teaching her a small lesson, yet you're threatening her? How interesting," Giselle mocked.Sebastian clenched his fists tightly after hearing what Giselle said. His expression was tense and sullen.Giselle acted as if she hadn't seen him and continued speaking despite the pressure emanating from him. "You can sue them this time, but what about the next time? Given that Charlotte's values are twisted beyond belief, there's sure to be endless trouble in the future."Oh, and let's not forget. She even encourages young women to have children out of wedlock."She guessed that her blind assumption would probably become the truth in the future based on Charlotte's current actions during this period.Charlotte would either get beaten up or scolded along the streets. She was practically born to be a punching bag.Giselle sighed internally and gave Charlotte a few slaps in her mind

    The expression on Finley's face stiffened, and her pupils dilated immediately. Finley didn't expect to hear the name she hated the most from Caroline's mouth. After suffering multiple losses because of Giselle, Finley would react to her name by instinctively feeling disgusted.Finley suddenly looked pale and terrible, causing Caroline to gently ask, "What's wrong, Finley? Do you feel unwell?"Finley clenched her fists tightly and forced herself to take a deep breath. Then, she put on a fake relaxed smile and managed to look elegant. "I'm fine, Mrs. Fordham. I do have a friend who's quite close with Giselle."The unexpected answer made Caroline exchange glances with Zachary. "Oh?""But… I don't think that's true anymore. After all, they had a little conflict between them. If I talk about it, we might get too emotional."Finley was being smart about it, as she couldn't badmouth Giselle directly. If she wanted to do it, she would have to find a scapegoat. That way, if her plan failed

    Giselle followed Hector outside the ward, and the nurse sensibly left them alone to check on the other patients.Hector then said, "Giselle, I have some relationship-related issues that I need to ask you about."It had been a month or two since they last talked about it, and it seemed to Giselle that his relationship with Julia had gotten worse. Julia had used up all of her leave days at the hospital, and her IP address showed that she was overseas.Hector felt frustrated because of it. If it weren't for Chester's accident, Hector wouldn't have returned to work so soon. Upon returning, he had to personally deal with all the work that had been piling up. Once he started getting busy, he couldn't even have a proper meal, let alone coax Julia.After hearing about his predicament, Giselle tried to find a suspicious loophole."When did you last see her?""It was around two weeks ago. I was drunk back then, and my friend called her for me so that she could pick me up."Hector tried hi

    The next morning, Giselle headed to the hospital after she was done washing up. The scabs from her injuries were starting to fall off, and the stitches were breaking apart too. She was well on her way to a full recovery.As for Chester, most of his injuries were superficial. The worst injury he had was around his stomach. When the car flipped, a sharp object pierced into his flesh. Fortunately, it didn't injure any of his vital organs. If it had gone a little deeper, he wouldn't have survived.When Giselle arrived at the hospital, Jean was talking to Chester about Joshua. The police had interrogated Joshua the whole night, but he didn't reveal anything of importance. Instead, he kept insisting that he didn't know the driver and that he didn't hire anyone to attempt homicide.Chester had already expected Joshua to be this shameless. He leaned back against the hospital bed with a cold look on his pale face. Then, he lowered his gaze to cover the frustration in his eyes."He's not goi

    From what Jonathan could remember, Giselle and Chester never interacted with each other in the past. Since the Grants and Lawsons had a marriage arrangement, Jonathan grew up with Giselle. He knew everyone she had met and befriended with.Chester had been doing his research overseas for the past few years, and he seldom came back to the country. Even when he did come back, he would leave as soon as he returned. So, there was no way for Giselle to interact with him at all.Suddenly, Jonathan realized he had forgotten something important. When they were in university, Giselle went abroad as an exchange student. If he remembered correctly, she seemed to have gone to the country where Chester was situated."Before I left, I entered Chester's office once, and he had a photo of a woman on his desk. When I returned to the country, I realized that woman was your ex-fiancée, Giselle."No one in their right mind would have a photo of their nephew's fiancée on their desk, so Chester clearly h

    Right after Joshua said that, the whole room fell silent. Everyone was shocked to hear that Chester had always liked his own nephew's fiancée, and they wondered if that was how wealthy people had fun.They wanted to gossip, and they secretly paid more attention to the conversation without showing it on their faces.Jonathan narrowed his eyes in hostility, and Joshua was satisfied by everyone's reaction. Joshua happily leaned back in his chair and looked so smug that anyone would want to beat him up."Mr. Lawson, you know how I used to work at your uncle's laboratory, right? I was even an important employee there, so I know a lot of things that you don't."Of course, Jonathan knew that. When he first started talking business with Joshua, Jonathan had someone look into his background. All the information he could gather easily was what Joshua wanted him to see. To get more information about Joshua, Jonathan had to spend more effort on it.At first, he didn't know what was going on b

    Looking at the call time of an hour, Chester smiled a little, and his long eyelashes cast a shadow over his eyes. He habitually took a screenshot and hid the name before uploading the picture online with the caption, "Good night."His last post on social media was less than a month ago. It might be a long time for most people, but this was Chester. He never uploaded a single post in the past, and he only started doing it a lot after meeting Giselle.The first comment came from Sam. Sam: "Were you in a video call with Giselle? Have you guys made that much progress? As expected from you, Mr. Fordham!"Hector: "It looks like someone is going to be heartbroken."Harry: "I was wondering why Giselle's line was busy when I tried calling her. So, she was on a video call with you, huh? Let's plan this out. Next time, call her when I'm done playing video games with her. I need to rank up before the season ends!"Chester didn't reply to any of the comments except for Harry's. "Scram."…

    Giselle was left speechless, thinking how Chester's aloof image was completely destroyed now that his memories were in disarray. Although he was only calling her dear by text, she could practically hear it. Suddenly, she felt uneasy and didn't know how to reply to him.Just as she was hesitating, Chester's video-call came in. She answered it after switching to her phone's back camera. The footage on her phone shook a little before she saw Chester's pale dashing face appear on the screen.After her experience with him last time, she was now calmer. It was as if she had grown immune to his appearance."Hey, dear." His attractive voice came through the speaker and echoed in the huge living room. It was windy outside, and the sound of waves crashing could be heard. Neon lights shone brightly from the cityscape. Giselle ignored the weird feeling in her heart and calmly answered with a hum.Chester couldn't help looking happy when he received a response from Giselle. Since he didn't have

    Giselle shifted to a more comfortable position. Since she was bored, she scrolled through Charlotte's profile on the live streaming platform and watched the latter's live stream.Charlotte had exquisite makeup on, and she had luxurious-looking bookshelves behind her, making her look extremely classy. Seeing how great she was doing at that moment made Giselle think that someone was behind Charlotte's success.Giselle didn't think Charlotte was smart enough to upgrade her setup so suddenly. After all, from what Giselle could remember, Charlotte was a stingy person. It might have to do with Charlotte's upbringing, but she was really calculative when it came to spending money.Thus, even after she returned to her actual family, she still couldn't get rid of that habit. When Giselle was kicked out of the Grant family back then, Charlotte came up with the idea to make Giselle pay them for taking care of her.Charlotte didn't make it too obvious and beat around the bush. However, she dema

    Silence ensued on the call as Emma's question stumped Giselle. Was Chester faking his amnesia? Giselle figured he had no reason to do that.When Giselle didn't say anything, Emma became anxious. "Hey, Gigi! Are you listening?""Yeah." Giselle returned to her senses, but her mind was in a mess. So, she couldn't answer Emma's question for the time being. In order to stop Emma from talking about it, Giselle changed the subject."Is Linda still visiting your company recently?"The Grants were in a mess at that moment as Harold's affair had already proven to be true. As for having an illegitimate son, the Grant family wasn't sure about it just yet. They had no evidence, and there was no way Harold would admit it that easily.In the eyes of the law, if Linda wanted to get a divorce, Harold would be the one at fault. Thus, he would be on the losing side when splitting their assets. He had worked hard on his company for more than half of his life, so he would never give half of their asse
