Chapter 247

Genevieve’s mind reeled with disbelief as she mused, ‘Titus seemed like a decent man. I can’t believe he’d do

such a thing!”

By now, Ximena was overwhelmed with emotions. She muttered some prayers before asking, “What about you? Mr. Hoffman is good–looking, rich, and powerful. Many coveted his attention, yet tonight, it was solely on you. How’d you two get divorced?”

Genevieve pondered silently before extending her pinkle finger into the air.

She meant to say she was beyond Anthony’s league.

Ximena’s beaded bracelet slipped from her grasp in sheer astonishment. “Is his thing really that short?”

Genevieve stiffened, then swallowed, deciding to stay silent.

‘Close enough. We’re not getting back regardless,‘ she mused.

Ximena’s sympathy shone through her eyes as she retrieved her beaded bracelet from the floor. “Goodness! All the more reason to think twice before getting remarried. Intimacy may be trivial, but it’s far from unnecessary.”

Genevieve peeled off her facial mask as she couldn’t contain her laughter at Ximena’s two–faced behavior.

“You’re right. Anyway, what are you doing here?” Genevieve asked.

Ximena clenched her jaw, her voice laced with bitterness. “He left me with nothing and ruined my acting career. I’ve lost every penny I have to him. Now, I want the world to know the truth about that scumbag.”

Gritting her teeth, she squeezed her bracelet so tightly it threatened to snap.

Genevieve pursed her lips, pondering, ‘She must’ve had it rough, too.”

In another room, Anthony, known for his germophobia, refused to share a room with anyone else.

He contemplated hurling the mattress out as Brendan persisted in staying, but the latter quickly interjected, “Don’t you want Genevieve back?”

Anthony retorted, “And why exactly does that concern you?”

“I’m the only one on your side now. Show some appreciation, would you?” Brendan grumbled.

Gritting his teeth, Anthony begrudgingly let him in..

Brendan swaggered in, making himself comfortable before probing, “So, what’s your sleeping arrangement with Genevieve, considering you hate room–sharing.”

Anthony sneered. “Simple. She’s my wife; you’re not.”

Brendan reminded, “Well, she’s not anymore.”

A frown creased Anthony’s features. “The bed is off–limits. The floor’s all yours.”

Brendan’s eyes widened.
