Chapter 317

Author: DuckDuckJoe
The person standing at her door was none other than Jonathan Lawson, who still had his hospital gown on. His face was pale, and his forehead tightly knitted.

The moment he saw that it was Giselle, a spark of surprise flashed across his dark pupils.

"Gigi!"

He reached out, wanting to hold Giselle's hand, but was immediately met by the woman's retreat. In that doe eyes of her was pure repugnance.

Jonathan's hand instantly froze mid-air.

His pupils constricted. Oddly, a sense of unfamiliarity washed over him as he stared at Giselle's face.

But they had been just fine yesterday. Jonathan was confused.

Ever since he woke up, everything around him felt strange.

Everyone looked so much older, including himself. The youthful look had faded from his face, making him look more like a grown-up.

Even Giselle looked different from what he remembered.

Jean had told him that he and Giselle had already broken up and that he shouldn't go looking for her.

But Jonathan found it ridiculous.

    This meant that the current Jonathan believed that Giselle and he were still together, and he was still madly in love with her.But that did not matter.A cynical smirk appeared on Giselle's face before she emptied another can of beer.Emma was no longer surprised. "Post-traumatic amnesia, PTA for short. I had a client like this once." She continued, "The married couple was in the same situation as you are now. They were both high school sweethearts, but the man ended up having an affair."A common phenomenon in today's society.As a lawyer, Emma had come across many such cases.Looking back at it now, it all felt quite surreal. "The man was in an accident, which led to his PTA. His affair was completely wiped from his memory. He only remembered being deeply in love with his wife, and they got back together in the end."That said, Emma had no clue as to whether it was truly a happy ending. Giselle said, "I'll never get back with Jonathan. Not even in a million years."Even

    The moment these words fell, Jonathan staggered.At the same time, his handsome yet ashened face was filled with disbelief.The next second, he anxiously grasped Jean's shoulders and asked in a frenzied manner, "You're lying, right? Why would I cheat on her? I love Gigi so much. I would never cheat on her!"Seeing Jonathan like this, Jean remained calm.She repeated it once more. "You really cheated on her, Jonathan. You betrayed Gigi."Perhaps this was his retribution for engaging in infidelity.He had only forgotten about the part where he was unfaithful. All he remembered was Giselle being the person he loved the most in this lifetime.But Giselle no longer loved him.Suddenly, Jonathan felt a piercing pain in his head. He fell to the floor as he clutched his aching head, incessantly muttering about how it was impossible. Jean raised her hand, signaling for the driver to have him put Jonathan in the car.This time, Jonathan did not resist.He had a high fever that night an

    The ward was filled with the strong smell of disinfectant that stung the nose. Jonathan's muttering of Giselle's name was gradually weakening until it disappeared entirely. It was only then did Chester stop frowning."Chester, I—""You don't have to say anything, Jean. I'll do it."Right away, Chester cut Jean off before she could even finish her sentence.A look of surprise momentarily flashed across Jean's eyes before she quickly regained her composure. The thousand words that inundated her mind were condensed into two words. "Thank you."Since she was in the field of scientific research, having to handle such a level of stress was manageable if it was only for a few days. However, if this continued, Jean would not be able to handle it. For the past few days, she only managed to sleep for a maximum of three hours per day.She had to take ibuprofen every day or she would feel nauseous.If Chester was willing to help her out, the people plotting against the Lawsons would defin

    The next day came quickly.Giselle was woken up by an incoming phone call.She answered the call in a groggy state. However, when she heard that familiar voice, she instantly became wide awake."Gigi…"With a hard tap, Giselle hung up the phone resolutely.The remaining drowsiness she felt disappeared instantly without a trace.Jonathan was like a ghost that was constantly lingering around her.She had already blocked his contact but he called her using a new phone number.Giselle felt extremely annoyed by this. She had not shown Jonathan an ounce of mercy the evening before and had openly kicked him out.Even though Jonathan was technically already 26 years old, on the inside, he was his 18-year-old self.Giselle knew this version of Jonathan like the back of her hand. He was a high-spirited young man with a huge ego. Normally, if he were to be treated this way, he would have never returned.Surprisingly, he was calling the person who had humiliated him on his own accord.

    Giselle sent a private message to the accounts that had won the giveaway. Only after she had given them the cash prize did she start her live stream.As usual, she kept her face hidden.Even when the netizens bombarded her with comments asking her to turn on her camera, she pretended not to have seen them."Why would a pretty person not want to show their face?""Forget it. Madam's hands are pretty too. If I had hands like these, I'd be happy everyday.""Hehehe! I won't say who got the 1,000 dollar giveaway. (That's right—it's me!)""The one above can see himself out. Be careful, you might lose it all by showing it off everywhere."The netizens' comments were non-stop. The entire live stream was filled with the graphical effects of them sending gifts to Giselle.In the past, the carousel gift that was worth $25 could allow netizens to request to join a host's stream.This time was no exception.Soon, someone requested to join her stream."Hello Madam. I have a question to as

    Vivian ran into the room, still clad in her school uniform. With Jean being strict on her, many of her old bad habits had been corrected.At least she was no longer labeled as a "crazy girl".She immediately threw herself into Jonathan's arms. She could no longer control her emotions and just burst into tears."Who made you cry, Vivi?"Jonathan let Vivian hug him. He only had this one sister, so he had pampered her since they were little. When had she ever suffered any form of injustice before?"Tell me and I'll make them pay."With someone comforting her, Vivian's tears couldn't stop falling out. She wanted to pour out all of the grievances she had suffered over the years.When the caretaker saw this, he knew to leave the ward and let the two siblings have their privacy. For a moment, the ward was filled with only the sobs of a female.Only when she was done crying did she lift her head up. She looked at Jonathan with bloodshot eyes and said, "I'm so glad you're fine, Jon."

    The lady who had joined the live stream recounted with nostalgia.She paused for a few seconds before continuing, "What I can't understand is… can men really have a change of heart within such a short time? It was like he had become another person after we started dating. We've only been together for three months.We couldn't have reached the stagnation phase already, right?"She had asked her friends and other relationship advisors before but had never gotten an answer that satisfied her.She had followed Giselle's account for a long time.Perhaps it was fate because at a time she was feeling the most confused, Giselle, who had not been active for a long time, actually returned to the platform for a live stream.The term "fuckboy" kept popping up in the chat box.Some netizens also shared their personal experiences."Hey, listen to me. Break up with him immediately. He's definitely not that into you.""Isn't the third month still within the honeymoon phase? I've been with my

    Everyone went silent at the revelation.There was just too much to unpack in that one sentence.If someone was with you when they don't even like you, then what was the point of being together?The lady was at a loss for quite some time. She seemed to be processing what Giselle had just said.After some time, she finally regained her voice. "Madam, so you're saying my boyfriend doesn't even like me, and that he only got together with me solely because that female friend in his group likes men who already have a significant other?""That's one way to put it." Giselle's calm voice was persuasive and convincing.The chat box was active again."I think my brain shrunk. What kind of perverts are they? What kind of moral compass does one have to want to be someone else's mistress?""Are tarot cards so magical that they could reveal these hidden secrets? Madam, could you reply to my private message? Could you read mine as well?""In my 30 years of living on this earth, this is the fi

    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

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.

    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
