The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 171
Jonathan was dealing with the wound on his shoulder in the treatment room. Beside him, Charlotte stood silently, her heart aching as she gazed at the deep, angry gash."It was all my fault, Jonathan. You wouldn't have gotten hurt if I had pulled you back in time." She blamed herself, guilt weighing heavily on her shoulders as she spoke. There were tears in her eyes, but they didn't fall. At that moment, she knew perfectly well that she would only annoy him by crying.It would be fine to use tears sometimes to improve their relationship. However, when they faced difficulties, she had to be strong. That was the only way she could achieve her goals.Jonathan's face was pale and covered in sweat. "It's not your fault." Jonathan felt frustration building within him as he spoke. He figured if someone had to be blamed, it would be his instinctive reactions.Charlotte said, "I've already told my brother to deal with it. We should never let extremists like them go that easily!"After ten

Jonathan stayed silent for a long while after hearing Jean's question. He didn't answer her until they entered the elevator together."Charlotte and I are just friends," he said solemnly. He had never thought about marrying Charlotte—even in the past. After learning what had happened, the chances of that happening were even slimmer."Friends, huh?" Jean frowned deeply when she heard that. "Do you really think you two are just acting like friends?"She had personally seen how they interacted with each other many times. No matter how Jean looked at it, they definitely didn't seem like platonic friends. Instead, they looked more like a flirtatious couple.Jonathan was already in the wrong for being so close to another woman when he had a fiancée. Could he still not understand the unspoken rules of a relationship when he was already in his 20s?There was no way Jean would believe that. Surely he was pretending to be dumb while enjoying the thrill of flirting with someone else. With th

Giselle ended the call right away, not giving Chester a chance to react. Her heart was still racing, and she only calmed down after she chugged a glass of water.Suddenly, she received a message from Chester."Rest early. Good night."That wasn't the first time he had wished her a good night. Still, it felt like it had been months since he started doing that. He would consistently send those two words to her every night without fail. At first, she chose to ignore him. However, she found herself replying to him once in a while."Good night."After putting her phone aside, she went to wash up. When Giselle returned, she noticed she had some missed calls. It was from the same number, and they had called her 15 times. She wanted to ignore it, but the number called again for the 16th time. So, Giselle answered it and put it on loudspeaker."Giselle." It was a familiar voice, and she froze while drying her hair. Suddenly, she realized who it was—Sebastian.Giselle had blocked his numb

Soon, three days had passed.Giselle had just finished livestreaming. Just as she was going through some footage to find some editable clips, Harry came knocking on her door. He was in his school uniform and looked the picture of youth. However, he had a gloomy expression on his face."Giselle, you have to help me. If you don't, I might not be able to see the sun again. I'm sure you wouldn't want anything to happen to me, right?" He explained his predicament with exaggeration. Then, he put his hands together and looked at Giselle with a pleading gaze—almost like a pitiful puppy.Giselle tossed him an apple and asked, "Well, tell me what happened first.""I'm in 12th grade, right? There's a parent-teacher conference at school tomorrow. However, I did badly in my tests this time, so I'm scared to tell my parents about it."Everyone from the Stone family was intelligent, and Harry was no exception. However, when it came to his studies, he wasn't as quick on the uptake. Instead, he

Jasmine had taken a picture in the exact same spot as Chester.When Harry visited Tony previously, he'd heard some gossip. One of them was how Jasmine liked Chester. Of course, Chester didn't reciprocate her feelings. As a matter of fact, she was basically harassing him.Harry thought she harbored wishful thinking for wanting someone out of her league. He wondered if she didn't realize that herself."Jasmine?" Giselle thought the name was familiar. After Harry explained who Jasmine was, Giselle finally recalled who she was. It was the lady who had spent millions to buy Giselle's apartment.Back then, Jasmine wanted to get closer to Chester by being his neighbor. Unexpectedly, he immediately sold his house when she bought the place. When she learned about it, Jasmine was infuriated.Harry chuckled. "Don't worry, Giselle. Chet will never like someone like her. She'll only make him hate her by being so clingy."In his opinion, Giselle was the only one who was worthy of being Chester

When Harry last saw Finley, it was months ago.She had just returned to Seaworth City from abroad and said she was going to stay for good this time. Everyone knew the reason behind this decision. After all, it was no secret that she had feelings for Chester. Although she was already 26 years old, she still made herself available for him. Thus, she stood out among the women her age.The Stones had tried talking sense into her, telling her to like someone else and that she could never be with Chester. Alas, she had been trying to win his heart for ten years. If it were possible, he would've opened up to her already.While Harry was still covered in sweat and unsure of what to do, Finley had already spotted him. She raised her hand to wave at him."Harry!" He showed a hideous smile as he approached them awkwardly. Then, he stood next to Giselle and greeted Finley. "Hey, Finley…"Upon noticing a figure next to her, Giselle finally removed her earbuds. "Hey, Harry."She hadn't hea

When Finley was gone, Harry finally let out a breath of relief."Giselle, she isn't my actual sister, and there's nothing special about our relationship."The conference hadn't officially started yet, so Harry brought Giselle on a tour of the school. As the main high school in Seaworth City, every facility there was top-notch. It was exactly how Giselle remembered it.At that moment, there were a lot of people in the field. Since classes were over, most Seaworth High students would gather there. Giselle stood by the entrance and stared at the field for a while before following Harry to their next location.They eventually arrived at a glass greenhouse with an open roof. There were various plants housed there, and it was built for students to take a rest.Harry said excitedly, "Giselle, it's incredibly comfortable to sleep here!""It sounds like you skip classes a lot by sleeping here." Giselle exposed his secrets immediately with one sentence, and he started blushing right away.

Vivian and Jonathan were standing in the distance, and they both looked distracted."Jon, I told you not to come. After all, it's just a parent-teacher conference. You don't have to waste your time here." After saying that, Vivian pouted.Normally, she would hire someone to pretend to be her parent. Since she was the daughter of the great Lawson family, the teachers would turn a blind eye to it. However, to Vivian's surprise, Jonathan showed up today without an invitation.When he arrived at the school's entrance, he called her right away and told her to bring him inside. Thinking about how she was ranked second last in her test, she could feel her head throbbing.Vivian didn't like to study. Since her family had enough money for her to spend until the day she died, she didn't see why she had to study so hard. If she couldn't get into a good university in the country, she figured she could just pay to study abroad.As for her future career, she could just join Lawson Group and ask

Polygamy wasn't allowed at all in Caldora."I know. We're not getting legally married, so it's not against the law.""Please, don't make things harder for Madam. Who could even give you advice on something like this?""Today's stream has really been an eye-opener.""If you want to be the first on the wedding night, couldn't you have discussed it with the other woman? Worst case, draw lots! If you're still unhappy, fight it out.""Where's the wedding tomorrow? I wanna watch the drama in person.""This stream's been recorded! If you just joined, check my page. Everyone has got to see this madness."Giselle's viewers were something else.Not only had they recorded the live stream in real time, but they also managed to piece together enough clues to figure out which hotel was booked for tomorrow's wedding.Giselle watched the flood of comments for a while.After a moment, she said, "Since you're already fine with two women sharing one husband, what difference does it make who's f

"Hi, Madam. I'm really troubled by something right now. My ex-husband is getting married tomorrow. I'm going to marry him alongside another woman. How do I ensure he chooses to spend the wedding night with me first?"The confused female voice rang clearly in everyone's ears.Everyone, including Giselle, was left dumbfounded. The live stream chat fell into dead silence.Moments later, it exploded with a flurry of activity."Wait, your ex-husband's getting married? You're marrying him alongside another woman? And you want to be the first to consummate the marriage?""Has the world gone completely mad? The only thing I haven't seen at this point is a ghost.""If this isn't scripted... Ma'am, you've got one hell of a mindset.""So, polygamy has made a comeback? Hey man, start a seminar. I'll listen to everything you say!""What kind of brainwashing is this? Madam, snap her out of it! Don't embarrass us women like this!""Some of us don't even have a wife, and this guy's marrying t

Chester looked into Giselle's eyes as he raised the corners of his lips slightly. "You're my wife. You can do whatever you want."After his last accident, he had taken advantage of the situation with Giselle under the pretext of amnesia. He would call her his "wife" or "Gigi" interchangeably.Until now, he had not had the time to come clean to her about this. Chester needed more time.Giselle was overwhelmed by the sudden profession of love.For some reason, her entire body suddenly felt warm. She looked away quickly, rolled down the car window, and let the wind blow upon her face. It was only then that her pounding heart settled into a calm rhythm.Chester caught everything from beside her.A trace of delight flashed across his eyes at the speed of light. When their gaze met again, however, it had disappeared without a trace.Chester decided to take it slow and easy.He straightened up and said, "A new restaurant recently opened in the suburbs. Should we go there for lunch?"

"You don't have to explain anything. Me and Jonathan? We're just aunt and nephew to each other."You're trying to ask him out, aren't you? When you finally win him over, don't forget to address me as Aunt Giselle, okay?"It was a soul-crushing blow.Giselle used their unique relationship as an opportunity to attack them without mercy!The greatest part about this was that they could not do anything to her.Charlotte's and Jonathan's expressions matched, which was a rare sight. Jonathan clenched his teeth in anger. His eyes hardened as he said, "Giselle, you're truly something else!"She knew to hit where it hurt. How did he not know that Giselle had this side to her?Giselle feigned humility. "You're too kind."The whole fiasco between the trio was becoming something of a movie to the passersby. Even when lunchtime was almost over, they were reluctant to leave.Some really were born with the talent to gossip.If they had to choose between money and gossip-worthy news, they

One could easily find Giselle's, Chester's, and Jonathan's names online through related keywords.The news came from an insider, so the credibility was 99.99%.The atmosphere between the two became heated.When Jonathan finally managed to suppress his negative emotions, Giselle's phone rang. Instantly, his heart skipped a beat. Alarm bells started to ring in his head.Sure enough…"I'm sorry, Chester. I forgot that you're no longer at Lawson Group."Giselle addressed Chester affectionately without any hesitation.She did this on purpose, of course.Jonathan was rendered speechless. He was so mad that he could even kill someone right now.But when Jonathan recalled his mother's admonition after his fight with Chester, he did his best to hold his anger back.From the phone, Chester could be heard saying, "Just stay there. I'll come over right now."When the call ended, Giselle could hear Jonathan's sneer. "Do you have to get on my nerves, Giselle?"His resentment was as cle

Jonathan was practically running on autopilot mode as his legs carried him toward Giselle.Meanwhile, Giselle was waiting for Chester's reply.All of a sudden, a shadow loomed over her, followed by a familiar voice that called, "Gigi."Both of them were good-looking people. Their standing side by side drew many people's attention.Passersby—including the employees—looked in their direction. They had even slowed down subconsciously as they walked by, just to catch a glimpse.Giselle's gaze went from casual to chilling in a split second.There was coldness hidden in her eyes, and a look of vexation settled on her face.Giselle took two steps away from him, putting some distance between them.Jonathan felt like someone was gripping his heart tight, making him feel suffocated.Dismay instantly replaced the feeling of excitement he had felt earlier. He stared at Giselle with woeful eyes. "Gigi…"Giselle did not buy into his words and pitiful act.She grunted. "Jonathan, is this h

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
