The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 86
No matter what was said or done now, Emma would just take it as an attempt to hide the truth.After about 40 minutes, a message from Chester popped up, "Come downstairs."It was short and straightforward.Seeing Giselle get up, Emma waved her off generously before she could even speak. "Go ahead. Go fly into your lover's arms."Giselle was at a loss for words. Sometimes, she thought that it'd be nice if some people weren't able to talk.Chester was leaning against the hood of his car downstairs, his black trench coat accentuating his tall figure. He only lifted his slightly lowered head when he heard footsteps.Underneath his dark, messy hair was a face with refined and attractive features. His gold-framed glasses added an air of grace and classiness to him.Suppressing the look of amazement in her eyes, Giselle politely asked, "Mr. Fordham, is there something you need from me?""Uncle Richard asked me to come pick you up."Giselle fell silent.Richard did say that he would g

"Giselle Stone, I've really underestimated you!"Jonathan wrapped his arms around Giselle's slim waist from behind, his low, husky voice carrying a hint of restrained anger.Giselle jumped from shock, causing the flashlight in her hand to drop to the ground and roll off to the side.The large hand around her waist was impossible to ignore."Now that Hector doesn't want you anymore, you go after my uncle? Aren't you a little too shameless, Giselle?"The two of them had appeared together in front of him more than once.He had previously suspected their relationship but quickly dismissed the idea. In his mind, Chester and Giselle were people from two different worlds—they couldn't possibly be together.However, seeing the two of them get out of the car together shook his belief, making him irritated and furious.When he saw Giselle head to the wine cellar alone, he followed her without a second thought.After sending the housekeeper away, it was just him and Giselle there.As Gi

Vivian blinked innocently, wearing an expression that made her look as if she were truly concerned for Giselle.In an instant, everyone's gazes at the table turned toward Giselle.The bewildered Giselle questioned, "I'm pregnant?"She was single. Even if she wanted to be pregnant, it was impossible to do it alone.However, Vivian's words reminded her of the message she received a few days ago. Now that Giselle put two and two together, the answer was obvious."Yeah. Did you forget, Gigi? That night, you bought that thing at the pharmacy. Lindsay and I saw you."With Jean present, Vivian called Giselle by her nickname. Vivian wasn't the least bit bothered by how appalling it sounded.Giselle frowned with disgust, whereas Vivian began her offensive again. "But you and Jon are no longer together. Does that mean that the child—"She didn't get to finish her sentence as Jean sharply scolded her, "Vivi! Don't spout nonsense!"Everyone present was smart enough to understand that Vivi

Richard turned to Jean. "I know you young people still want to focus on your careers, but I'm old now and can't handle their matters anymore!"On the whole, Jonathan was more well-behaved than Vivian.At least he wasn't wayward. If he became a spoiled playboy who only cared about enjoying himself, Richard would probably kick him out of the family on the spot.As for Vivian, Richard had already done everything he could as the grandfather of a young woman. It was hard to handle her rebellious phase.Since she was still young and her behavior could be corrected, Richard selfishly hoped that Jean could put her career on hold and spend time with her.After dinner, Jean asked Giselle to see her in the study.She took a palm-sized box out of the drawer and handed it to Giselle. "Sorry for only giving you your 25th birthday present now, Gigi."Giselle instinctively declined, but Jean firmly insisted she accept it."I know all about the ridiculous things Jonathan did. You've made the ri

Giselle and Jean had just reached the staircase when they ran into Jonathan—what a coincidence.After what happened in the wine cellar, the sight of Giselle reignited Jonathan's barely suppressed anger. His narrow eyes were bloodshot, his brow furrowing with hostility.The calm Giselle was a stark contrast to his demeanor.Even though Jean wasn't aware of what had happened between them, her instincts told her it couldn't be anything good.Jonathan didn't say a word to Giselle.Upon spotting Charlotte in the living room, he immediately strode toward her.Seeing him walk away, Jean frowned."Jonathan!" The moment Charlotte spotted Jonathan, her face lit up with joy, her features coming alive with excitement. She looked every bit like a young woman in love.Jonathan's presence finally alleviated some of the awkwardness in the atmosphere.Giselle and Jean walked over a moment later.As Giselle didn't see Chester around, she subtly let out a sigh of relief."Hello, Mrs. Lawson."
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 91
"As long as I'm alive, Charlotte will never be a part of the Lawson family! If you insist on marrying her, you can get out too!" Richard said.These words instantly wiped away the brief joy on the faces of the Grants. Their expressions darkened almost simultaneously.Richard's statement turned their visit that evening into a pathetic display of self-delusion.The Lawson family clearly looked down on them, yet here they were, desperately ingratiating themselves.Even though they were furious, the Grants dared not voice their anger. They were mindful of the Lawson family's status in Seaworth City.Jean remained silent, evidently in agreement with Richard.Tears quickly formed in Charlotte's eyes, but she stubbornly held back. There was a hint of a sob when she said, "Jonathan, don't argue with your grandpa because of me. I'm okay…"Her good girl act came again.Giselle wanted to leave but also wanted to stay and watch the drama unfold.With the Lawson family present, the Grants

Chester's black coat was draped over his arm. He was wearing a white shirt.With broad shoulders and a narrow waist, his unbuttoned collar added a casual and slightly languid air.Before Jean could say anything, Chester stopped right in front of Giselle.His eyes lowered, and his long lashes cast faint shadows on his cheeks. Then, he said in a crisp, cold tone, "Ms. Stone, let's go. I'll take you home."Jean was slightly surprised. She hadn't told him, but Chester had already volunteered to take Giselle? Since when was her younger brother so enthusiastic about helping others?Jean didn't have time to dwell on it and simply reminded them, "Be careful on the way. Gigi, text me when you're home."Giselle obediently agreed and forced herself to follow Chester out. The cool breeze outside blew away the heat from her flushed face, clearing her thoughts considerably.A black luxury car was parked in the courtyard. Chester opened the car door for her. When Giselle bent down to get in, h
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 93
From getting to know Brady to falling in love, it seemed to be just Lily's one-sided infatuation.She was eleven years older than Brady. Back then, she was a highly sought-after screenwriter in the industry, while Brady was just a newbie starting out.She was attracted to his looks, and Brady went along with her desires. Their secret relationship had initially been based on a sugar mommy and sugar baby dynamic. But it evolved into what appeared to be a normal romance after Brady gained fame.From that point on, their roles reversed.Brady became so busy that he was barely around, sometimes not meeting her for half a year. This made Lily become insecure. She lost herself and became increasingly obsessive.But her tears had already dried up. Now, she was numb, like a lifeless puppet.At the moment, Giselle said, "Expose everything Brady has done."Lily never thought that her relationship of more than 20 years would end so bitterly. It felt like a thousand needles piercing her soft

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. On the other hand, Jonathan, who was lying in the bathtub… looked extremely miserable.The media who had bee

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. He was burning all over. It felt like he was being roasted from the inside. He was gradually losing his ability to think rationally.All he could see was the thin figure in front of him.Giselle was left speechless.They had cast a spell on this miserable man because they were not able to do it to her?There was no denying it. Angela and her friends
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 304
Angela, Finley, and Charlotte were rendered speechless.This explained why Giselle was able to make so many enemies. Just that mouth of hers could make people abhor her with a burning passion.What now? 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? I don't know what you're talking about…""Oh, really? Then expla

The crowd was frantic.A tumult of screamings and shoutings bombarded their ears. Chester's voice was swallowed whole by the clamor of the crowd.Giselle moved forward with the flow of the crowd.There was only darkness ahead. Everyone skimmed the walls as they walked. There was a faint source of light in front of them.Before Giselle could even suppress her annoyance, a hand suddenly grabbed onto her wrist.The palm of this person's hand was slightly calloused. Her skin became a little sore from the slight abrasion.It was the hand of a woman.Giselle did not struggle against the woman grabbing her. Instead, she let her pull her forward.They were headed in the opposite direction from everybody else.During this time, Giselle had a sudden moment of clarity.The faint light allowed her to recognize the back and gait of the person in front of her. It revealed the fact that this woman was Angela.Still, Giselle remained unperturbed.As they went up the stairs, the noise and c

"Mr. and Mrs. Stone, this is my sister, Lyla."Lyla tried her best to smile. In a very soft voice, she greeted, "Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Stone."Jackie had notified his family members in advance. But now that the actual person was standing in front of them, both Eugene and Moira were surprisingly calm.In short, Lyla felt like a total stranger to them.On the other hand, Giselle seemed profoundly familiar.After having compared the two, both Eugene and Moira kept their true feelings concealed.The news of them finding their long-lost biological daughter had not been made public. They had initially planned to announce the news at the charity banquet.However, they were now having second thoughts."Let's talk about this again when your brother and the others arrive."Upon hearing these words, the smile on Holly's face visibly stiffened. Things were not going according to plan.If she had it her way, the Stones would now be making the public announcement that Lyla was their eldest d

When Giselle was kicked out of the Grants' house, she had nothing to her name.Now, she seemed to be shamelessly clinging onto Jonathan, someone who had everything. Charlotte hated Giselle's guts.How could she, after leaving the Lawsons' world in shambles, be living her best, carefree life?Giselle should be having the worst, most miserable life in the slums! She should be trampled underneath Charlotte's feet forever!In stark contrast to Charlotte's rage, Giselle was much calmer.Giselle looked askance at Charlotte. With a cold and calm demeanor, she said to Charlotte, "We'll see."With the three women embroiled in the same drama, she was curious to see what interesting events would unfold.Just like that, Giselle disappeared from their sight.Finley stared at Charlotte with disapproval and said, "Wasn't what you just said to Giselle an indirect reminder?"When they first met, she had thought that Charlotte was a smart person. However, as Finley got to know her better, she r

As the head of the Lawson family, Jonathan found himself at the center of media attention, especially after Giselle and Chester's public display of intimacy at the gala. "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. Just then, a photographer shoved a camera right in his face. Jonathan's eyes narrowed dangerously. He suddenly grabbed the camera and smashed it to the ground.The reporters fell silent. Jonathan ignored their stares and strode into the venue, his eyes scanning the place for Giselle and Chester. Despite his search, he constantly found himself intercepted by others. …In a corner of the venue, Charlotte stood alone with a wine glass in hand. As the

Giselle had only met a few members of the Stone family. The first was Harry. Despite meeting for the first time, it felt as if they had known each other for ages. 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. But the documents Chester had shown her… Something was amiss. Lyla and Holly definitely had ulterior motives for infiltrating the Stone family. Thinking of Harry's smile, Giselle agreed to Che

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. Might as well take it if it's free!"
