Chapter 50

Author: DuckDuckJoe
Giselle said nothing and allowed Chester to keep holding her around the waist.

Chester's lips curved upward at her compliance, and the last vestige of his annoyance vanished.

"That's impossible! Chester, you're lying to me, aren't you? You can't have a girlfriend!" the drunk woman suddenly began screaming.

She broke down completely and lunged toward Giselle. Her teeth bared in a grimace as she reached out to claw at her.

Chester's eyes narrowed, and he pulled Giselle aside to dodge the attack. There was a flash of revulsion in his eyes.

He shielded Giselle, and his authoritative air made the other woman sober up almost instantly.

Jasmine Sinclair's hand froze in midair, and she turned as pale as a sheet as terror washed over her momentarily.

What had she done?

She had tried to hit Chester's girlfriend right in front of him!

No, that wasn't right! She had paid money to find out, and there had been no mention of Chester having a girlfriend!

"Chester, you're lying to me, aren't

    Chester stood tall, a suit jacket draped over his arm. His hair fell slightly tousled across his forehead from the wind. His well-defined eyebrows framed his eyes, which made him look relaxed and easygoing.Hector struggled to maintain a serious expression, desperately trying to hide his laughter. It was clear that he had tipped Chester off about his meeting with Giselle. Coincidence didn't exist in this scenario. It was amusing how Chester tried to play it off. Nothing was simply destined to occur. In reality, it was all part of his plan.Giselle replied calmly, "What a coincidence."The exchange between the two resembled a human-machine interaction. Hector found it fascinating and wished to observe it a bit longer, but a sharp glance from Chester silenced him immediately.Hector cleared his throat and said, "I left something in the private room. I'll get it. You two chat first."After that, he left.Once he departed, Giselle felt a wave of awkwardness wash over her and contem

    "Madam, please check the screenshot I sent you via private message. A woman named Charlotte is imitating you in her live stream. I watched it and found her values to be distorted.""Did you see it as well? I was furious! Who in their right mind would encourage a young woman to become pregnant before marriage? The reporting was unsuccessful. It's appalling how those greedy capitalists operate. Absolutely disgusting."Giselle silently read the comments but didn't respond directly. Then, she transcribed the memo onto paper and showed it in the livestream."A 35-year-old man, 180 cm tall and weighing 66 kg, is a finance expert and owns a private club. He has three houses, five luxury cars, and a yacht in Seaworth City. "He offers the woman 30 thousand dollars in monthly allowance and wants her to work for his company in the future. He grew up in a poor family, is not good at speaking, is a workaholic, and expresses his sincerity through financial support."After writing, Giselle stre

    Giselle quickly changed her clothes and hurried to the police station. As she approached, a loud commotion echoed from within, capturing her attention before she even entered."What did you do to my daughter? You persuaded her to run away with that man. Why would you want to harm her?" A loud cry of grief followed.Charlotte felt dizzy and looked upset. She retorted, "What does it have to do with me? She asked for my advice, and I gave her reasonable suggestions. How was I supposed to know she would make such foolish choices?"The police on duty quickly stepped in to separate the two before a fight broke out.Charlotte entered the interrogation room, closely followed by Giselle. A female police officer introduced herself and provided a brief overview of the situation to Giselle. "Ms. Stone, a woman reported that her daughter has been missing for three days without any contact. We've checked her social accounts and found a private message sent to you before she disappeared."The

    This clearly showed just how important Charlotte was to Sebastian."Where's Jonathan?""I didn't want to worry Jonathan, so I didn't tell him. It's my fault this time. Would it have been better if I had stayed silent? Sebastian, do you think I messed up?"Sebastian gently rubbed her head and replied, "You meant well. It's not your fault."Sebastian had a general idea of why Charlotte was at the police station but not the details. He sympathized with her struggles over the last 20 years and wanted to support her as much as possible. Even if Charlotte was at fault this time, he would stand by her unconditionally.Charlotte was deeply touched, her eyes brimming with tears. "Sebastian, you're so kind to me."Her coquettishness helped Sebastian relieve his mental fatigue.Charlotte held his arm affectionately and asked, "Now that you're back, you won't leave again, right?""Yeah. Everything is finalized. I'm ready to take on Dad's job starting tomorrow."They were chatting as they

    The sharp sound of the slap froze the surroundings. Giselle's head tilted, and her fair face turned red and swollen from the force of Sebastian's slap.Sebastian opened his mouth, but instead of the words he had planned to say, a sharp accusation escaped. "Giselle, don't push it."He never thought about hitting Giselle. She had been his sister for over 20 years, even without a blood relation, and the Grant family would accept her as long as she remained compliant. Unfortunately, Giselle always opposed Charlotte, making it clear that he would choose his biological sister over her.Besides, Giselle owed Charlotte everything, so she had no right to bully her. This thought quickly erased Sebastian's guilt.Giselle looked down, her long eyelashes casting shadows on her face, hiding the emotions in her eyes. She gently touched the sore spot inside her cheek with the tip of her tongue. The pain brought clarity to her thoughts.All eyes were fixed on her. After a moment, Giselle smirked

    Giselle couldn't help but notice the joy sparkling in Charlotte's eyes. "Instead of claiming that Charlotte is suffering on my behalf, it's more accurate to say that the Grant family has engaged in too many wrongdoings, and this is karma.""Giselle!" Sebastian shouted in anger. He raised his hand to strike, but Giselle quickly grabbed his wrist. A look of shock crossed Sebastian's face. He was taken aback by the unfamiliar, chilling defiance reflected in her eyes."Are you addicted to slapping, Sebastian? That slap was my way of repaying your kindness. From now on, stay out of my life. Take your dear sister and get out of here." With that, Sebastian's hand was forcefully shaken off.Giselle had never been kind and was aware of who treated her well. However, Charlotte's presence made everyone favor her. Giselle rejected any kindness she believed was insincere. Her determined and cruel gaze appeared genuine. Sebastian was at a loss for words, showing a complex expression.All

    The station fell silent. Sebastian's face flushed as he clenched his fists in embarrassment. Nobody saw it coming when Chester took hold of Giselle's hand and delivered a sharp slap to Sebastian's face.In Seaworth City, the declining Grant family still garnered respect due to their upcoming marriage to the Lawson family. Chester's action was clearly humiliating the Grants."Sebastian, are you alright? Does it hurt?" Charlotte snapped back to reality and tried to touch the spot where Sebastian was hit.Yet, he avoided her, looking distressed. At 32 years old, he faced a level of humiliation he had never experienced in his life. Chester showed him no respect at all.Sebastian was furious but knew he had to hold back to avoid offending Chester. Despite not having the Fordham family's support, he realized that upsetting Chester could be a mistake.Sebastian tried to calm down and realized he had another concern. He wondered how Giselle got close to Chester. Their bond seemed sign

    Charlotte felt Giselle's words were very insulting. She trembled uncontrollably. After a moment, she turned and threw herself into Sebastian's arms in grievance.Logically, Sebastian should have insisted that Giselle apologize once more. Yet, at that moment, he seemed to be rendered speechless.Giselle found it absurd, yet she accepted it. With the final remnants of her connection to the Grant family fading away, she realized her world didn't rely on anyone else to shine. She was the light herself.Sebastian and Charlotte fled in embarrassment, ending the farce. Giselle sighed in relief, but before she could fully relax, Chester pulled her away."Mr. Fordham…" she whispered, struggling briefly before being placed in the passenger seat. Chester placed one hand on the door, lowering his eyes, his jaw set with cold determination. "Key."Giselle looked up. "What?""Your car key."Giselle wasn't sure why Chester wanted her car key, but she handed it over obediently under his seriou

    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...

    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.
