“Genevieve, they’re saying you had something to do with the sudden death of Old Mrs. Faulkner. Why were you at the Faulkner residence?” asked one of her colleagues.

Genevieve fell silent for a moment before saying, “Would you guys believe me if I told you that Mr. Faulkner is my husband?”

Because they were clearly worlds apart, no one believed Genevieve when she actually told them about it.

One of her colleagues even laughed at her as she said, “Hahaha! You sure are a funny one, Genevieve! If you’re Mr. Faulkner’s wife, then I’m his second wife!”

The other colleagues laughed along with her when they heard that.
