Chapter 18

prideful self. Due to Genevieve’s strong stance, some guests already began to doubt the authenticity of the video played just now. Some guests even came over to ask Cooper about it, making the latter feel very awkward. After dealing with all those bigwigs, Cooper went to the corner to make a phone call. “Get rid of all those videos online…” After a pause, he added grimly, “Also, send someone to tail Genevieve twenty-four-seven for a few days!” I want to see who’s the one helping her. Genevieve felt satisfied after teaching that shameless couple a good lesson in front of all those bigwigs. Her mood had seemingly turned better. When she left the hotel, she saw a Maybach parked at the roadside. “Ms. Rachford.” After Steven opened the car door, he complimented, “I have witnessed everything that happened in the banquet hall. You have done a good job.” “Thank you for giving me the video.” Steven shook his head. “I just did what I was told. You have to thank Mr. Faulkner.” Genevieve was at a loss for words, and her lips twitched. Previously, she had indeed thought that Armand was there to mock her, and she had hated him for a moment because of that. Unexpectedly, Armand had set up everything behind the scenes. He was just waiting for her to exact vengeance personally. Everything he set up was really exciting… Genevieve sat in the car and waited quietly. From time to time, she would take out her phone and scroll through Twitter. She had already uploaded the video online, but Cooper was still one step ahead of her. He had already contacted the publicists to deal with the video and related articles. Thus, the video did not go viral on the internet. That did not matter to Genevieve.

Very soon, a figure entered the car. Armand had a faint scent of smoke and alcohol on him. The scent enveloped Genevieve like a net, and she instinctively straightened her back and leaned as far as possible to the other side of the car door. Armand seemed to be very tired. He rested with his eyes closed the moment he got into the car while leaning on the car seat. The car drove off slowly, and there was a pin-drop silence in the car. Genevieve hesitated for a few seconds when she saw a pharmacy that was open for twenty hours daily at the roadside. In the end, she asked Steven to stop the car and went inside to buy some medicine that was good for curing hangovers and a bottle of water. Seeing that Armand was still resting with his eyes closed, Genevieve said softly, “Mr. Faulkner, I bought some medicine for you, and it’s good for curing a hangover.” If it was not for Armand, she would not have the confidence to teach Cooper and Erica a lesson while everyone was watching. She felt very grateful to him. Seeing that Armand did not move, Genevieve thought that she had spoken too softly and so she leaned closer. “Mr. Faulkner…” Just as she was about to speak again, the car that was moving steadily suddenly did a quick turn. Genevieve was caught off guard and crashed into Armand’s chest. She could feel his warm skin underneath his clothes. A few seconds later, Armand’s teasing voice came from above her head. “Do you like throwing yourself into my arms that
