Chapter 567
Bruce relaxed his furrowed brows upon licaring her last sentence. He then bent down and picked up a lantern next to her fect. “Whicre do you want to relcasc thc lantern, Ms. Rachford?”
It was at that moment that Genevieve finally remembered shic carne with Jane. She was too focused on chasing after Bruce that she Icf Jauc behind.
“Later. I need to send a text.” There are too many people. I doubt I can find Jane.
“Are you looking for Mr. Sutton?” Bruce asked, raising his hand and pointing ahead.
Genevieve shifted her gaze in the direction of his finger and spotted a couple kissing on the Crowded bridge.
She then launched her camera app, zooming in to see who they were.
Turning her head to look at Bruce, she asked in puzzlement, “They’re so far. I can’t even see them clearly. How did you recognize it was Coop?”

That‘s true. I ho on earth would come to fly a lantern in a suit?
After that, Genevieve carried the lanterns and walked to a less crowded spot with Bruce. Sighing, she said, “Jane is just a few months younger than I am. If she ends up with Coop, does that mean she’ll be sister-in-law?”
Bruce thought for a moment before saying, “Or you can have Mr. Sutton regard you as someone older than him, just like Jane does.”
“Does teasing me make you that happy?” Genevieve glared at him.
She then borrowed a pen from a girl who was releasing her lantern by the side and wrote a few wishes on the lantern,
The moment she lit the candle, someone accidentally bumped into her.
Bruce hurriedly snatched the candle from her and threw it onto the ground before placing an arm in front of her, preventing her from knocking into the railing
“Sorry,” the person apologized quickly
After recollecting hersell, Genevieve quickly grabbed Bruce’s arm. As she saw the burnt mark on his palnt, she rushed off to the nearest store and bought two bottles of water to help him clean it.
Surprisingly, Bruce asked lier, “Are you okay? Did your hair get buru?”
As he said that, he used his hand to comb through her hair, examining it.
**I’m fine.” Soon, the two bottles of water were emptied. She sighed with relief upon seeing the redness on his palm had faded. “Thank you for what you did earlier.”
“It’s fine. As long as your hair isn’t burnt,” said Bruce.
After that minor incident, Genevieve did not want to release the lantern anymore. However, Bruce said it would be a waste since she had already written her wishes on it. Hence, they went
into the store and bought a new candle.
Genevieve placed the lit candle in the lantern and watched it fly away, joining the dozens of lanterns in the sky.
She could not help but find the scene before her extremely beautiful. Even the feeling of loneliness from earlier had vanislıcd.
Glancing at her watch, Genevieve guessed Amanda was awake. Thus, she made a video call.
The call got through almost instantly.
The little girl sat on the bed with her hair tousled up, her cheeks rosy, and her eyes groggy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mommy…” Amanda spoke and behaved cutely in front of Genevieve.
Seeing her cute behavior, Genevieve could not help but smile. “Guess why I am giving you a video call.”
“Why? Have you found a boyfriend?” asked Amanda curiously.
“No!” Genevieve’s lips twitched. She then turned around and raised her phone up high so Amanda could see the beautiful scenery.
“Oh! It’s the Sky Lantern Festival at your place now!” Looking at the beautiful scenery in the video, Amanda exclaimed, “It’s so pretty!”
She quickly hopped off the bed and dashed into the room next door to look for Lucian. “Lucian, look! It’s so beautiful at Mommy’s!”
Lucian glanced at it briefly in a deadpan manner. “It’s not bad.”
At first, Bruce had slightly distanced himself from Genevieve when he saw her making a call. However, when he heard the children’s cute voices, he could not help but get closer.
