Chapter 990
“I've already picked out the wedding dress,” Genevieve went on as she fished her phone out of her pocket to show
Cooper everything. “The green dress from the fashion show this year is so beautiful!”
Genevieve was especially fond of green, and she never liked the idea of having a white wedding dress. She had
always dreamed of wearing a color she loved and marrying the man of her dreams.
She didn't actually feel much when she said those words to Cooper, though.
It was more of a rational statement than an emotional one. She enjoyed spending time with Cooper, even when she
was just a kid, and the two of them had been engaged for so long that it just made sense to marry him.
“Uh, it is beautiful, and if you like that dress, I will buy it for you,” replied Cooper. He held her hand and glanced at
her before suddenly breaking the news. “But Genev, I can't marry you.”
Genevieve was taken aback. “Why not?”
Cooper was about to explain the situation when Genevieve asked in a horrified voice, “Wait, don't tell me... My dad
dated someone else before he got married, and you're the son he had with his first love and, therefore, my half-

A thought flashed past Cooper's mind. Actually, the one who had another lover was your mother, and you do have
a half-brother, but it's not me.
“No, that's not it,” replied Cooper. He instinctively tried to push his glasses, but there was nothing there for him to
push.
“Well, if we're not related, then everything is fine,” said Genevieve as her frown relaxed. “I don't care. You promised
you'd marry me when we were kids.”
Cooper didn't want to die from Armand's wrath, so he had no choice but to lie. “I can't marry you because I'm in
love with someone else.”
“You're lying,” commented Genevieve before she snickered. “Come on, you don't hang out with other women, and I
know that all too well. Besides, we grew up together. Our love and history are strong, so there is no way anyone
can compete against me.”
“Why would I lie to you?” challenged Cooper. “We're adults now, and feelings change. Also, I've only ever seen you
as a baby sister.”
Genevieve's smile turned upside down immediately. “Have her come here, then. I'd like to meet her.”
Cooper was lying to Genevieve earlier. He didn't actually have a girlfriend.
The poor guy was about to signal Armand and get the latter to come up with a solution when someone knocked on
the door. Sally entered the room a second later.
She had a white formal outfit on and had rolled up her sleeves so her fair skin was exposed. When the light hit her
and revealed her stunning face, her incredibly clear eyes came into view as well.
A container of food was in her hands. When she noticed Genevieve and Armand there, as well as the dinner placed
on the table, she was surprised.
Ah, I guess I didn't need to get him dinner.
Cooper caught Genevieve shifting her gaze to Sally, and an idea came to his mind a few seconds later. “That is the
woman I love. Her name is Sally Loake.”
Armand was punching some numbers into his phone at the time, but he paused when he heard Cooper's words.
Man, Cooper is making a tremendous sacrifice here.
Sally frowned. She saw the glow in Genevieve's eyes a second later and realized what was going on immediately,
though. Hence, she nodded at Genevieve and greeted, “Ms. Rachford.”
Genevieve sprung up from her seat and began scanning Sally from head to toe, her lips pursed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHmm... this woman is taller than I am and is quite beautiful. She also has a graceful aura and a style that is
completely different from mine.
Strangely enough, Genevieve realized that she wasn't angry or heartbroken even though her fiance had had a
sudden change of heart.
Still, she forced an angry look onto her face and turned to Cooper before saying, “I can change my style and be like
her if that is what you're into. All you have to do is apologize, and I will forgive you for everything.”
“I'm the one he loves, and a change in style won't help you,” said Sally calmly. “Also, he doesn't need to apologize to
you.”
Furious, Genevieve roared, “You're the homewrecker! How can you act as though you're in the right?”
“He doesn't love you, and the two of you aren't married yet, so how am I the homewrecker?” challenged Sally. She
scoffed and walked past Genevieve before placing the packed food she had brought on the table.
Leaning over, she caressed Cooper's face. “What's wrong? You seem pale. Did you not rest well?”
“Yeah, I couldn't sleep last night,” replied Cooper, not pushing her hand away.
“This is all my fault. You must miss me so much that you couldn't sleep,” commented Sally as she pushed on his
brows to smooth away his frown. “Be good now. Next time, I promise I'll call beforehand if I can't make it to the
hospital.”
Cooper didn't reply to that, but the vein on his forehead was throbbing.
