The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 224
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
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 225
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

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

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 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
The Sweetest Revenge Chapter 229
Finley knew Chester had serious germaphobia, and she wondered why he didn't find Giselle to be dirty and disgusting. She then thought about how traditional the Fordhams were and wondered if they really could accept a relationship like that.She wanted to see the Fordhams make things hard for Giselle. After all, Finley couldn't understand why someone who wasn't as impressive as her could easily get something she couldn't get her hands on. To her, Giselle wasn't worthy in the slightest."Zach, do you think Chester will be angry if we talk to Giselle ourselves?""Angry, huh? Even if he does get upset, he'll need to endure it! If he dares throw a tantrum, I'll give him a piece of my mind!"Zachary was a perfect example of a man who loved his wife too much. As long as Caroline was there, everyone else would have to keep their distance, even their children. If they hadn't gotten pregnant with Chester back then, Jean would've been the only child in their lives.Finley continued standin

Giselle was being herself and didn't try to be humble just because of who Caroline and Zachary were. Chester's parents exchanged pleased glances.If Chester really liked Giselle, they wouldn't mind having her around. After all, as parents, they wished to see their son have a successful career and a family of his own.Since they gave birth to Chester at an old age, he was able to have whatever he wanted while growing up. That said, they didn't know what went wrong as he turned out to be aloof. He would always keep his distance from everyone and never made his parents worry.The only thing they were worried about was his marriage. Chester was almost 30 years old now, but he had never been in a relationship. When they asked if he had anyone he liked, he would always say he wanted to focus on his career and work in the laboratory.When he graduated from university, he went to another country by himself. Throughout those years abroad, he almost never touched the Fordhams' assets. Ever

Finley forced a smile. She put down the bowl and then turned around to meet Chester's indifferent gaze."Ches—Mr. Fordham." She corrected herself in time.Finley knew Chester would go after her family if she called him by his name."I saw your parents taking Giselle away when I came over," Finley said. As she finished, she noticed a change in Chester's expression. Her heart tightened at the sight. She watched as Chester pulled the IV needle out of his hand and got out of bed. His recklessness stunned her.She trembled as she asked, "I'm curious, Mr. Fordham. What do you even like about Giselle?"She couldn't understand. Not now, not ever.Giselle was an orphan. How could she compare to her? Finley couldn't wrap her head around how she lost to someone like Giselle."Do you need a reason to like someone?" Chester didn't want to argue with her.His mind was plagued with worries about Giselle being mistreated by his parents. He called both of them, but neither answered. It felt l

Charlotte still wasn't about to give up. However, Chester's patience had already run out. He suddenly stood up and strode toward her.Charlotte instinctively swallowed hard and stepped back. Her back hit the cold door, and her palms were slick with nervous sweat.She held her breath. "M-Mr. Fordham..."Chester extended his hand, voice sharp and commanding as he said, "Hand it over."Panic instantly surfaced on Charlotte's face. Her eyes darted around as she didn't dare meet his eyes.She tried to play dumb. "W-What do you mean?"Chester said flatly, "If you still want to survive in this city, I suggest you cooperate."The moment he finished speaking, that suffocating silence returned, cold and heavy.Charlotte's back was soaked in cold sweat. Her hands trembled uncontrollably.Chester caught every subtle expression on her face.Two minutes passed.Unfazed, Chester pulled out his phone and started dialing for someone."I-I'm sorry, Mr. Fordham!" Charlotte panicked and blur

"M-Mr. Fordham." Charlotte walked into Chester's office under immense pressure, careful with every step she took.Faced with the stunningly handsome man before her, there was not a single trace of desire in her eyes. Compared to Jonathan, Chester was far more terrifying.Yet, deep down, she couldn't help but feel jealous of Giselle.Why did Giselle get to enjoy such special treatment? She was just a fake heiress who had taken someone else's place!Charlotte often found her thoughts spiraling every night.Did Giselle pull a trick of some sort to steal her rightful place? Otherwise, how could she have screwed up so badly?Chester's cold gaze swept past her like she was barely worth looking at. It was as if even one glance in her direction would disgust him.Chester asked, "Do I know you?" His deep voice was full of impatience.Charlotte, trembling with fear, clenched her palms and forced a smile that looked worse than if she'd been crying."Mr. Fordham, I know it was you who tol

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
