Chapter 473

Penulis: DuckDuckJoe
Five minutes later, Holly's phone chimed with a text notification from Jackie.

"Holly, got a minute? Something urgent came up, and I need you to drop by the office for a bit."

Holly was silent for a moment.

Her relationship with Jackie was currently at a phase where they were more than friends but not quite a couple. It was as if the two of them had implicitly agreed not to take things further.

At this moment, Holly made a decision. She resolutely tapped away on her phone, sending a line of text over before getting up from her seat.

"Harry, could you help me keep an eye on Lyla? I'll be back in a bit."

Harry gestured with an "Okay" sign.

Holly then turned around and gave Lyla a few cautionary reminders before strutting off in her heels, leaving the race complex.

Without Holly there to pressure her, Lyla was finally able to breathe a little. She could now fully immerse herself in the race.

An adrenaline rush she had not felt in ages coursed through her entire body. Her eyes li

    Hector wanted to explain himself to Julia, but she would not even give him the chance!Hector let out a frustrated sigh as he furrowed his brow. This was more exasperating than having to deal with a difficult patient.As if on cue, the waiter brought their coffee over at this moment.Giselle stirred her drink and took a sip. She then gave it a moment of consideration before saying, "Who knows for sure? Julia might be coming back in a few days." "Really?" Hector exclaimed.The moment he heard the news, his eyes lit up, and the pitch of his voice went up a notch.Immediately after, he realized that he had lost his composure. He chuckled sheepishly and apologized. "Sorry."After a momentary pause, Hector cautiously asked, "Ms. Stone, could you tell me where she'll be staying? I won't bother her. I just want to… see if she's doing well."Giselle did not make a promise right away.Based on what she knew about Julia, the fact that she had not contacted Hector for so long meant that

    "Gi—Ms. Stone? What brings you here?" Hector asked with a surprised look on his face as he walked out of the elevator in his white coat.He almost called her by her first name. It was fortunate that he stopped himself in time. Giselle only replied, "Something happened."The handprint on her face was very obvious. It was hard not to notice.Hector's heart dropped. Giselle got beaten up?It was certainly a big deal. Did Chester not know about this?Wordlessly, Hector followed Giselle into the elevator once more.Giselle shot him a weird look and asked, "Weren't you getting down just now?"Hector was actually here to do his rounds. However, it was more crucial that he attend to Giselle at this moment.Besides, he had something to ask Giselle.After days of hesitation, the universe made the decision for Hector. How else could he explain running into Giselle?Unperturbed, Giselle went to get an ice pack from the nurse. As she held the ice pack that was lined with water droplet

    When Holly got to the end of her sentence, she played the sympathy card like a seasoned professional.After all, Lyla, having been missing for over 20 years, was a lifelong guilt for the Stone family. It was a regret they could never make amends for.As expected, their faces softened a little. Giselle was not planning to continue the confrontation with Holly either.After all, there was still a long way to go, so there was no need for her to rush now.Giselle retracted her gaze from Holly and calmly said, "Ms. Sharp, consider yourself lucky that I'm the one here today. If it were someone else, I'm afraid your apology would not have worked."Holly gritted her teeth and said nothing. She finally understood why Giselle had so many haters.With a mouth like that, who would even like her?Besides, Giselle resorted to physical violence out of nowhere. It was truly infuriating.It was true that Holly had intentionally slapped Giselle as she was sure that Giselle would not act reckless

    Silence filled the entire hallway in an instant.Because it happened out of nowhere, no one except Giselle even registered what had just happened.Holly held her cheek that had just been slapped. The stinging pain caused a tear to roll out of her eye.The moment she met Giselle's cold gaze, she instinctively shuddered and took two steps back.Earlier, Holly had slapped Giselle across the face without even giving her a chance to explain the situation. The slap was neither strong nor weak. Nonetheless, there was a clear mark on Giselle's left cheek. The redness stood in stark contrast against her fair skin. Giselle had never been one to be taken advantage of. Why should she get slapped across the face?If it were not for the Stone family, Holly would have already received two slaps in retaliation."Ms. Sharp, why don't you get yourself treated if you're sick?" Giselle's sarcastic tone snapped everyone back to reality."If you disagree, feel free to come at me," she continued.

    This meant that dating a scumbag was something every person would experience at one point in their lives.As long as they endured and persevered, they would emerge from the storm as a stronger person!"When one door closes, a better one opens. Giselle is the living proof of this. Just look at her current boyfriend. Isn't he better than her ex in every way?""You're right. Ladies, breakups are not scary. Don't just pick a random man and spend the rest of your life with him. "Who knows? He might even be bad for your finances!""If some pathetic man dares to stand between me and money, I'll show you all the world record for the fastest breakup ever!""You can play with my feelings, but not with my money. Money is quite literally my life. Anyone who tries playing around with my money deserves nothing but shame."There were all sorts of comments under Harry's post. At least now, there were fewer people putting him on blast.This was all thanks to him spending all the allowance he h

    "You have my word," Giselle said.Now that Giselle had made him a promise, the heavy feeling in Harry's heart vanished right away. Not a single negative emotion lingered.He leaned against a corner and started bragging about it to his best friends. He made sure to update his status as well.GisellesAdoringLittleBrother: "Something came up, so I'm no longer able to stay for the second half of the race. However, my doting sister told me that she's going to bring me down to the tracks next time!"There were various ways to interpret his status update.Blissfully unaware of his weakness in language, Harry lamented the fact that the netizens had such poor reading comprehension. "What happened? Did something happen to Madam? Hey, kid. Your confusing post is driving me nuts!""Judging from how happy he sounds, I don't think anything's happened to Madam. But if that's the case, then he's just an ungrateful brat.""Yeah! She dotes on you, sure. But she dotes on her fans too, so stop sh
