Chapter 12 

A hint of displeasure erupted within Armand‘s heart. He picked up the bowl of oatmeal that he had brought in earlier and drank a mouthful of it. Then, he leaned over to the woman and locked his lips on hers. Forcing open her mouth with his, he fed her the 

oatmeal through her teeth and down her throat. 

Perhaps Genevieve was too famished that she instinctively swallowed the oatmeal even in her slumber.

He forcefully retracted his hand and left the room.
