Chapter 213

Anthony remained silent for a brief moment.

Admittedly, he was infuriated when he saw the video.

Quincey’s actions were reckless, yet Andrea, the instigator, was far more reprehensible.

Several times, the thought of involving the police crossed his mind, but each time, the memory of Andrea’s tearful recount of her struggles to secure a donor for Lauraine while overseas held him back.

Owing Andrea a favor meant he was now bound to assist her.

In a voice that was barely above a whisper, rough and slightly parched, Anthony said, “Genevieve, Andrea’s actions were indefensible, but that doesn’t mean we should lock her away. After all, she played a part in saving

Lauraine’s life-”

Genevieve cut him off sharply, her voice dripping with scorn, “That’s your reasoning? Let’s not forget that, I too played a part in saving Lauraine. But, how quickly you forget the name of the donor, clinging instead to your gratitude toward Andrea. You cherish her for the life she saved, yet you overlook the sacrifice my family made. Be careful, Anthony, this decision might be one you’ll live to regret.”

With those words, she ended the call abruptly.

Anthony attempted to reach out again only to be met with silence.

After the call, Genevieve sent a message to Jasper before carelessly tossing her phone onto the sofa, unintentionally hitting Goldie on the head.

Goldie looked up, seemingly offended. Adorned in a golden faux fur outfit chosen by Genevieve that mirrored its natural coat, Goldie appeared exceptionally endearing.

The outfit was a perfect fit, restoring Goldie’s confidence and dignity.

At Genevieve’s clapping, Goldie bounded over, tail wagging in joy.

Meanwhile, Anthony stepped out of the penthouse, aware of Genevieve’s fury but resolved to make amends to Monica in other ways.
