Chapter 240 Another Wedding
Genevieve rested at home for two days and only returned to work after recovering from her injury.
Many of her colleagues had already arrived at the translation department when Genevieve reached the
office.
Some were busy organizing documents while others gathered around to chat. When one of them saw
Genevieve walking in in a black suit, she was stunned. “Hey, Genevieve. You’re back to work already?”
Genevieve?
As soon as Genevieve’s other colleagues heard her name, they looked over with wide eyes to stare
curiously at her.
They thought that she would not come to work because of the amount of attention she was getting on the
internet.
“Good morning,” greeted Genevieve while smiling at her colleagues before settling behind her work
desk.

Genevieve noticed the awkwardness in the air and so lifted her head to smile at her colleagues once
again. “I wasn’t feeling well, and there was an accident in the shower. That’s why I was away for quite a
while. I appreciate that you guys covered for me, so I ordered some coffee and snacks as a thank you.”
As soon as Genevieve finished her sentence, a delivery person carrying several bags entered the office.
“Is there a Genevieve Rachford here? I have your order.”
After taking the cups of coffee from the delivery person, Genevieve handed them to her colleagues.
As she did so, she even teasingly asked them if they could not recognize her due to her recent weight
loss and lack of rest. This snapped them out of their daze as they laughed, accepting her generosity.
Suddenly, the entire office was lively again.
After taking a few sips of her coffee, Genevieve set it aside and threw herself into her work.
She was so focused that she did not even hear her name when another delivery person entered the
office with a bouquet meant for her. A colleague ended up taking the flowers to her.
“Genevieve, Mr. Sutton of Specter Corporation just sent you flowers,” informed the colleague after
knocking on Genevieve’s desk to get the woman’s attention.
Genevieve then lifted her head to see a bouquet of green roses.
They looked so fresh that one could be forgiven for thinking that they were just plucked from a garden
nearby.
“Thank you,” responded Genevieve.
Since her desk was littered with documents, Genevieve simply placed the bouquet by one of the
drawers.
When everyone had mostly finished their work close to noon, they went over to Genevieve with mugs in
their hands to ask about the bouquet from Cooper.
“Hey, Genevieve. Why did Mr. Sutton suddenly send you flowers? Is it because of your post on Twitter?
Are you guys getting back together?”
“Is there going to be another wedding?”

Genevieve took a sip of her coffee before replying, “We had a misunderstanding before, and now that it’s
resolved, we’re on good terms again. Mr. Sutton and I are just good friends, though, so no wedding.”
“But I thought you remarried, no?” One of Genevieve’s colleagues noticed the absence of a wedding
band on her ring finger. “I mean, you even took off your ring. Does that not mean you’re planning to
marry Cooper again?”
Genevieve then looked at her right ring finger and noticed a mark from wearing a ring too long. “I did
remarry, but I have no plans for a divorce. I just took the ring off because I’ve lost a lot of weight recently.
It doesn’t fit my finger anymore, and I didn’t want to lose it.”
Even though Genevieve’s explanation made sense, her colleagues were unconvinced. “We heard that
Cooper killed your parents just so he could take over your family business. Are you just going to forgive
him like that?”
“That’s nonsense,” responded Genevieve with a chuckle. “He and I grew up together, so I’m sure I know
what kind of person he is. Besides, I gave him my shares voluntarily because I wanted him to run the
company for me. It would’ve gone bankrupt had I tried to manage it myself.”
Some of Genevieve’s colleagues thought her actions were understandable.
Since Cooper grew up with the Rachfords, it was only natural that Genevieve knew him best. On top of
that, nobody had proof that the man killed Genevieve’s parents.
