Chapter 246

Author: DuckDuckJoe
Chester was like a god to everyone. He could be looked at but couldn't be reached. They weren't on the same level.

Harold thought that he had heard it wrong. Giselle's husband was Chester? That was impossible. It had to be a lie.

Giselle cared a lot about her reputation, so she must have colluded with Hector to put up an act in front of them. Harold refused to believe that the fake daughter he had once regarded as worthless actually climbed up the social ladder.

Emma, who stayed behind, crossed her arms in front of her chest and glanced at Harold with contempt. "What's the matter? Do you still not understand? Gigi is the daughter-in-law of the Fordham family. When you see her in the future, please treat her respectfully. Otherwise…"

She felt happy at the thought of that scene. She continued, "Otherwise, doomsday will arrive, and Grant Group will go bankrupt."

It was a sentence that was always said by the male protagonists in novels where they were wealthy CEOs. Although it sounde

    "Jasmine, are you trying to harass an unconscious patient?" The sudden voice shocked Jasmine, making her withdraw her hand subconsciously and shudder. She turned to the side and saw Giselle open the curtain with one hand before walking out. On Giselle's beautiful and indifferent face, there was a mocking expression that she didn't bother to hide. Her dark hair and fair skin were very easy to recognize.Jasmine bit her lips out of jealousy. "Don't slander me! I-I'm only here to visit Chester!" Then, she asked, "Why are you hiding in Chester's ward? You're the one who's trying to harass him! How dare you say I'm the one harassing him instead!"It wasn't the first time Giselle had seen someone play the victim. She found the situation mind-boggling and wanted to laugh, which is exactly what she did. She then raised her brows. "I'm harassing my darling? Jasmine, are you kidding?"Chester was aware of his surroundings the entire time. He could sense everything in the ward. It was just

    Harry thought that Danny should have understood the situation after he had said that, but Danny asked, "So?"This time, Harry was confused. "There's nothing else. Giselle is Chet's wife. So, it's normal for her to address him as her husband."Then, Harry took a few steps back. After making sure that it was a safe distance, he acted serious and said sincerely, "Danny, can you not be so old-fashioned? You need to catch up to the young people's trends."Danny's eyelid twitched in annoyance. "Harry!" But Harry had already run away. He only left behind an echo as he called, "Danny, I'm going to the hospital now. You should continue your work!"Danny was at a loss for words. Harry always had a knack for making people worry. Danny decided to forget about it and finish his work quickly. Then, he drove to the hospital alone.At the same time, the police had arrived at the hospital. Jasmine, who tried to harass Chester, was successfully apprehended. The apple in her mouth was taken out. B

    It was unclear when Chester had woken up. His face was still extremely pale. With dark eyes, he stared at Harry.At that, Harry shuddered. "C-Chet, why didn't you say anything if you're up?" It was horrifying! Thankfully, he didn't have any heart illness. Otherwise, he would have suffered from cardiac arrest then and there.Chester lowered his head and coughed. Because of that, his wound was affected. His face then turned even paler.Giselle quickly reached out to rub his chest. "Are you alright?"Although her voice was cold, there was concern behind it. Chester was easily moved by this. With a hoarse voice, he answered, "It only hurts a little. Don't worry."Giselle pressed the bell at the head of the bed. A few minutes later, Hector and the medical team entered the ward. Harry and Giselle went outside to give the doctors and Chester some privacy. It was only then that Harry let out a sigh of relief.Upon seeing Harry's behavior, Giselle smiled. Aside from their first meetin

    Linda shouted at Wendy and Anthony like the shrewish woman that she was. Because she hadn't been maintaining her face with treatments for half a month, her old age was evident, and her face was distorted. She didn't look like a pampered, wealthy woman at all.Previously, Charlotte had accompanied Linda to the hospital for a follow-up checkup. When Linda fainted out of anger, the doctor said that she had breast hyperplasia and that she should have checkups regularly. Such a major issue was out of her expectations. Yarick wasn't Sebastian's son, after all! So, how could she tolerate it? Of course, she couldn't. She directly dragged Charlotte to look for Wendy. Without giving anyone a chance to react, she slapped Wendy hard across the face.Harold, who was standing to the side, had a ghastly expression on. He scolded in a low voice, "Linda, that's enough!""Enough? Harold, are you protecting your mistress' son? Don't forget who helped you resolve Grant Group's financial crisis with f

    That crisp sound of a slap brought existing resentment to new heights.With the exception of Giselle and Emma, almost everyone else was startled by this sudden turn of events.Charlotte, who had just been slapped, was in utter disbelief as she held a hand to her cheek. Her face became increasingly flushed, and the throbbing pain made her feel even more humiliated.Wendy recovered from the shock and muttered, "Gigi…"Giselle loosened her hold on Wendy. With a nonchalant attitude and an icy cold gaze, she looked at Charlotte as if she was an ant."Think of it as a free facial massage. You're welcome."Some people could never say anything nice, so something had to be done.Charlotte had always been such a person. While her parents and brother would always spoil her, Giselle would never.Charlotte was just picking on those weaker than her.She could see that Wendy was a softie who was an easy target. That was why she went all out and used harsh words, verbally abusing her.It was

    Arriving at this thought, Giselle took a glance at Anthony's charming face out of the corner of her eyes. She could only think about what a waste it was; she did not say anything out loud. Once again, Giselle placed her attention back on the four Grants in front of her. Having been provoked incessantly, Harold's hand began to rise with intent. However, he saw the nurse approaching with a team of security personnel. He had no choice but to lower his hand.The nurse had come over to tell them off sternly for having caused a commotion."I don't care if you have unfinished business or family drama that hasn't been resolved. This is a hospital! The patients and their family members need to rest. If you're going to fight, please take it outside. Otherwise, I'm going to have these guards take you out."The hospital was a sacred place. It was not some random place where they could just wreak havoc and leave.The nurse had also been observing in secret. It was obvious that the Grants ha

    Meanwhile, after doing the checkup at Chester's ward, Hector had everyone leave the room. Then, he pulled a chair over and sat by the bed."Chet, you should stop running around and just rest. Otherwise, Giselle's gonna run away with some other guy, and when that time comes, you won't even be able to chase after her."His wound kept getting torn open. It was undeniable that Chester was a ruthless person.As a doctor, Hector only spoke the truth. He did not exaggerate one bit.The wound was already in a compromised position. If the recovery period was prolonged and the wound was not healed, there could be irreversible consequences. He did not want to be held responsible for this.Hector managed to secure a cold look from Chester, but he was already used to this. He took this opportunity to tell Chester about the things that happened with Wendy and the rest. He might not be entirely sure of the exact details, but his intuition told him that there had to be an astronomical secret in

    The day after, Anthony intended for Sebastian to catch him coming out of Wendy's room. He had initially expected Sebastian to kick up a huge fuss. He did not expect Sebastian to keep it all to himself.Everything was out of Anthony's expectations. It was not until Wendy gave birth to Yarick that Anthony realized he'd messed up his plans. He had secretly done a paternity test and found out that Yarick was his biological son.It was obvious that Sebastian knew about this as well. However, he still chose not to say anything and decided to just pretend that Yarick was his son.Suddenly, the sound of a slap was heard. This time, it was not from Giselle.It was a slap from Wendy to Anthony. Everything became silent.Anthony prodded his inner cheek with the tip of his tongue. His eyes were lowered as he said nothing.With a trembling voice, Wendy yelled angrily, "You're a monster!"Her perfect life had been completely ruined by Anthony! It was the Grants that he had enmity with, so why

    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

    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. The reason he was still not over her was mainly due to t

    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
