Chapter 493 Who Dares To Lay A Finger On Him Armand leaned back and said impassively, “Could
you really stay away from me if I wanted you to?” Genevieve deflated like a balloon as her eyes
dimmed. She went back to her seat and put on her seat belt as she said stiffly, “No. However, our
agreement still stands. You can always come up with other things.” Then, she drove Armand back to
Central Group Tower. “I will move to Swallow Garden to take care of you this afternoon, at least until
after you’re fully recovered. In the meantime, I will chauffeur you back and forth to work.
Let me use the car for the time being,” Genevieve said. “Whatever floats your boat.” Armand opened
his seat belt and got out of the car. “Goodbye, Mando!” Genevieve waved her hands at the man as she
said animatedly, “I’ll come and fetch you sharp at six later!” Armand pretended not to hear her and
headed into the building. Seeing as it was still early, Genevieve went to the production company.

cranberries as she said, “My, my. Look at how happy you are. Have you been getting along well with
Mr. Faulkner recently?” Genevieve mumbled an affirmative response. “I have to get off work at four-
thirty later because I’m packing up to move to his place.” “Wow, that’s fast.” Johanna leaned against
her desk and asked in a perplexed tone, “But what happened though? How did Mr. Faulkner get shot?”
The unbecoming image of Armand’s wound popped into Genevieve’s mind right then as she felt her gut
wrench. Genevieve whispered, “I don’t know.
There are very few surveillance cameras in Xemrich. It will be quite difficult to locate someone.” It
seemed like the other party had devised a foolproof plan. She reckoned that they must have a
formidable background. However, Jadeborough was Armand’s turf. Anyone who had dealt with him
practically feared the man. Who would have the audacity to strike him? Genevieve was stumped.
Johanna knew better than to keep prying. She changed the topic and said, “Sylvie has landed the
female lead role in Gustav’s movie. She’s trending on Twitter now!” Genevieve gave her a helpless
look. “Are you here to mock me?” “Hey, I’m here to congratulate you,” Johanna said with a grin. “Two of
our star artists are able to partake in this huge production. That’s something to be proud of. Don’t get
mad. Her lead role is not given by your man anyway.” “Then how did she land the role?” Genevieve
asked with furrowed brows. Genevieve had been indulging in entertainment news when she
accompanied Armand to the hospital in the past few days. Hence, she knew that actresses from A-list
to D-list had auditioned for the movie and among them were a number of actresses who were more
popular and bagged more accolades than Sylvie.
If it were not for Armand, how would Sylvie be able to land the leading female role? Johanna’s obsidian
gaze glinted. “You don’t need to concern yourself with that. Just take good care of Mr. Faulkner! By the
way, Genev, do help me order my ice cream later. The order history is on my phone. Timothy is going
to nag my ears off if he finds out about this.” Genevieve was rendered speechless. After the ice cream
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwas delivered, Johanna closed her office door and started to wolf down her ice cream. The cold and
sweet sensation were pure bliss. Noticing that Genevieve was seemingly engrossed, Johanna stood up
to take a look. Then, she noticed that Genevieve was parsing through a stack of documents about a
socialite from a prestigious family. Johanna was stumped. “What are you doing, Genev? Are you
looking for a mistress for your man?” “No. It’s for Coop.” Genevieve lifted the cup of coffee on her desk
to take a sip. “Coop told me that Samantha has died. Her assets, including her shares of the Faulkner
Group, have been passed on to him.” If it were not for Samantha’s vengeance plan, Cooper would not
have inadvertently killed Genevieve’s parents and ruined the Rachford family. Genevieve swore she
would never forget that. However, she had taken note of Cooper’s contributions to Specter Corporation
and kindness toward her in the past few years. Genevieve rubbed against her cup of coffee and said,
“Coop is already thirty this year. I want to find him a good woman so that he could settle down soon.”
She wanted Cooper to work for Specter Corporation, but she did not wish for him to end up all alone.
Johanna eyed Genevieve and joked, “You are the whole package—you have the looks and capability.
Which socialite is going to be better than you? I bet Mr. Sutton thinks the same.” Genevieve shot her a
daggered look, and Johanna immediately muttered an apology and helped her parse through the
documents.
