Chapter 988

Genevieve immediately questioned the propriety of her request once the words left her mouth. He's my boss. Why am I ordering him around so naturally? In fact, he's the boss of a government institution.

While she was lost in her thoughts, Armand had already instructed the driver to head to General Hospital. He even turned to look at her and asked, “Would you like to bring dinner for Cooper?”

“Sure,” Genevieve replied subconsciously. She was still confused about how she had so readily agreed to share a car with her boss.

While Armand made a call, she chanced a peek at him.

That man had been in her ward when she first woke up in the hospital twenty days ago. He introduced himself as Armand Faulkner and claimed to be Cooper's friend.

From his explanation, she learned that she had been kidnapped by Specter Corporation's nemesis. She later fainted from excessive shock, and Cooper now lay in the hospital recuperating from gunshot wounds he suffered while trying to save her.

Several days after she awoke, Genevieve received a call from a government institution checking in on her recuperation. The caller also instructed her to return to work once she was better.

Genevieve recalled how perplexed she was. I was always working at Specter Corporation. How did I end up transferring to a government institution?

On her first day at work at the government institution, Genevieve attended a meeting and learned that Armand was her boss. She rarely saw him after that meeting as her workload became heavier.

She did not think she would bump into him that day after work and even board his car.
