Chapter 97

Penulis: DuckDuckJoe
Everyone understood the words, but somehow, when strung together, they didn't make sense anymore.

"Did he save your life or something?" This was the phrase Giselle had asked repeatedly.

She swallowed her frustration at the caller's naive words before saying, "He went out with another woman before breaking up with you. It shows that he clearly didn't respect you or value your feelings. If he truly loved you, he would have respected you and upheld the boundaries of a relationship."

The commenters instantly agreed with her.

"Madam is absolutely right. Don't be foolish, girl. We don't need useless men."

"While you're here moping around, he's already enjoying himself with someone new."

"No need to win him back. There are plenty of men out there. DM me, and I'll introduce you to some hot guys!"

The woman in the call started crying. "But I really like him…"

"Liking him alone isn't enough. If you lower yourself to beg for reconciliation, you're just degrading yourself," said Giselle.

    Giselle remained expressionless, though she felt the urge to laugh.Then, she typed a reply. "You already said she's your ex. Whoever she's with now has nothing to do with you. So, I suggest you mind your own business."Yesterday, in the Lawson family's wine cellar, she had used Chester to ruthlessly provoke Jonathan. She even boldly declared she'd make him call her Aunt Giselle.For someone as prideful as Jonathan, such humiliation was unbearable. He was so furious he skipped dinner entirely.Later, without consulting Richard or anyone else, he impulsively decided to get engaged to Charlotte. Of course, there was an element of spite involved."She can't be with my uncle!"The thought of meeting her in the future and being forced to call his ex his aunt made Jonathan feel suffocated.The image of Giselle kissing Chester remained vivid in his mind.How bad was it? It made him dream of the two kissing right in front of him at night. And after the kiss, they interlocked their fing

    "It has nothing to do with Lottie," Jonathan finally said.He downed drink after drink, his dark and oppressive demeanor making it impossible for anyone to provoke him.Oddly enough, he felt that it was a little quieter than when he was alone despite the crowded setting.Larry drank a few glasses with him. Then, out of nowhere, he heard Jonathan ask, "Larry, what would you do if your ex got together with your uncle?"Larry's brain didn't process the question. Ex? Uncle? Together?"Jon, you must be drunk. What kind of nonsense are you saying…""Answer me." The commanding tone swallowed the rest of Larry's words."If my ex got together with my uncle? I would probably laugh my head off."My uncle is a gambler and a womanizer. If she chooses him, isn't that just self-torture? If my ex found someone worse than me, I would joke about it for the rest of my life."…Meanwhile, Emma transferred the one thousand dollars to Giselle's account.Then, she texted Giselle. "Gigi, that was b

    "Hi, do you have any candles?"Under the bright light, the teenager stood tall with a healthy complexion. Even though his features were still youthful and soft, there were already hints of captivating charm.His dark eyes carried a faint uneasiness, and his tightly clenched fingers had turned pale.Giselle retracted her scrutinizing gaze. "The property management is staffed 24/7. You can just call them if there's a power outage."Faced with a male stranger knocking on her door late at night, Giselle remained highly vigilant.Then, she stepped back. She was about to close the door when the boy suddenly fell forward with a loud thud, landing flat on his face.Giselle was shocked. Was her new neighbor trying to scam her?She called for an ambulance and crouched down to turn him over, bending her finger to check if he was breathing. There was a faint, warm flow. He was alive.Giselle let out a sigh of relief and leaned against the doorframe, waiting for the ambulance. After som

    Harry held on as long as he could and knocked on Giselle's door before he eventually blacked out.She must have gotten quite a scare. It was rare for Harry to do a self-reflection and be annoyed at himself.He wanted to get down from the bed. As he tore the blanket off, he felt a man's hand press him back down.Confused, Harry lifted his head and asked, "Chet?""She didn't come."Those three words instantly made Harry downcast.With a calm expression, Chester asked, "Do you know her?""No. We met for the first time today."Having said this, Harry scratched his head and added, "She just feels familiar."He was not sure why either. …Chester left only when the assistant arrived. A text message from Giselle soon appeared on his phone.Gigi: "Is he okay?"Chester: "He's fine. His hypoglycemia was acting up."Only then was Giselle relieved.Everyone slept peacefully that night.When she woke up, Charlotte's name was the most-searched name on Twitter.After scanning through

    Feeling perplexed, Giselle frowned."The Grant family clothed and fed you. We have never mistreated you, have we? Who gave you the right to do this?"This inquisition was laced with insurmountable anger.Sebastian looked at the descending curve on the computer screen. He was livid.He had been overwhelmingly busy these few days.Before Brady's incident, the company had already been under malicious attack by some parties.First, their plan was leaked. Then, their key employees were poached.Bad things happened one after another. For the finale, the incident involving Brady took the cake.The products he endorsed were getting boycotted by buyers nationwide. They demanded a return and refund of their money.They refused to use the products that a scumbag endorsed, fearing that karma would prevent them from finding their significant others in the future.That was just pure nonsense! Sebastian had just taken over the family's business but now had a mountain of problems to deal w

    Giselle and Harry took this opportunity to get each other's contact details.The 18-year-old teenager was very friendly.There would always be a reason for him to text her every day. This was especially so after learning that she was acquainted with Chester. In fact, he was dying to gossip about it.Harry: "So Giselle, how'd you and Chester meet?"Harry: "Giselle, just tell me, pretty please? I know a secret about him."Harry: "I promise you, it's a TOP secret!"Chester's secret? There was no doubt that Giselle had taken the bait Harry cast.Her understanding of Chester was merely surface-level. She could not obtain much information about him on the internet.Giselle: "I'm not that close with Chester. The first time we met was when I was an exchange student abroad."That was not a lie. She sat on the beanbag with her head lowered while she typed away.Giselle: "It's your turn now. So what's that little secret of his?"Harry: "Chet's almost 30 and he's never been in a relatio

    Emma had sent a picture to Giselle.Emma: "Gigi, look. Is this your adoptive father?"Giselle enlarged the photo. It was evident that the photo had been taken in secret. The picture was dark. A man's silhouette could be vaguely seen with the help of the streetlight. He was embracing a woman tightly.Giselle: "Where was this taken?"Emma: "I went back to the law firm in the evening to take some documents. When I came out, I saw a man and a woman sneaking around. The man looked familiar."Giselle understood everything. When she pieced the incident outside the study together with this, it was apparent that Harold had been unfaithful for many years.Giselle saved the photo, already thinking of the perfect timing for the exposé.Considering how the Grant family had tormented her for many years, it would be disingenuous to say that there was zero resentment.Giselle never claimed to be a saint. She lived by a tit-for-tat principle.For her, there was nothing left in the Grant fami

    Hector was sincerely seeking advice from Chester.Chester, however, was rendered speechless. He should not have come this evening.Chester simply said, "Self-assurance. She would not marry Jonathan."He was being honest. After learning that Giselle was his nephew's fiancée, Chester had people look into the matter.It was around that time that he found out about the suspicious relationship between Jonathan and Charlotte.There were no grounds for a platonic friendship between a poor female college student and the son of the Lawson family.The current situation turned out to justify his suspicion at the time.Hector retorted, "How could you be so sure? Even if she didn't marry your nephew, she could end up marrying someone else!"A beautiful and outstanding woman like Giselle would always have someone pursuing her.If it was not for Giselle being a lovestruck fool, she would probably already have had hundreds of boyfriends.Even when he was doubted, Chester was not angry.Lang

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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

    These five minutes were unusually agonizing for the netizens who were waiting restlessly for the tea.At long last, footsteps could be heard approaching from behind. Penny clenched her fists tightly. She tried to calm her erratic heart that pounded against her chest.Her face was ashened."Penny, I'm here! Hey, why didn't you tell me you were bringing your friends along? I would've gotten two more cups of coffee."The bright cheerful voice of a man was approaching. Only when he had stepped in front of her did he realize that Penny had company. Next to her were two unfamiliar faces.One of them looked to be in her 30s. She exuded elegance and looked like someone of a prominent status.The other one looked like she was in her 20s and was really stunning.Amazement flashed across Zayn Carter's eyes before he quickly recomposed himself.While he was looking at Giselle and the others, they were also studying him.His eyebrows were well-defined, and he had broad shoulders and a sl
