My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand)
Chapter 1099 Relationship

Evangeline was momentarily dazed before instinctively retracting her hands. "I don't know how."

"We'll start from the most simple one." Genevieve forced the violin into Evangeline's arms. Then, she seated the latter among the ensemble before sitting next to her.

Genevieve received the violin handed to her by one of the violinists and smiled faintly at Evangeline. "It's fine. I'll be here to keep you company."

Evangeline has been very fond of playing the violin since she was little. However, after her father rebuked and humiliated her, she never touched the musical instrument again. At that moment, holding the violin, she merely felt her hands burning as if she was clutching a piece of hot iron.

After a long while, Evangeline grasped the bow.

Seizing the break period, she tried playing the violin and realized the sense of familiarity with the instrument was still there. Glancing through the scores, she noticed most of the pieces were classical music she had listened to countless times.

Soon, the second half of the concert began. Mellifluous classical music reverberated inside the opera house as the audience indulged in the magical performance with closed eyes.

After the concert ended, all the guests stood up and clapped their hands. Apparently, they were very satisfied with the performances. Subsequently, the crowd dispersed in twos and threes.

Genevieve said to Evangeline, "Their rounds of applause are recognition of your musical prowess. You were excellent during the play."

Evangeline's back was drenched with sweat. Nonetheless, a thrilling look spread across her face as if she had finally vented all her pent-up grievances after so many years.

Genevieve completely captured Evangeline's heart after the concert that night. As a result, they became even more closely acquainted as Evangeline put her guard down around Genevieve.

Part of the reason might also be due to Evangeline's perception that Lostaria was the Sheratons' territory, so Genevieve wouldn't dare to do anything to harm her.

That day, when they rested at a dessert shop after they were done shopping, Genevieve grasped the period when Evangeline went to the restroom to implant an eavesdropping software given to her by Frank into Evangeline's phone.

When Evangeline returned from the restroom, the waiter brought a box over.

Genevieve glanced at the content when the waiter opened the box. She recognized those to be chocolate truffles, a type of confectionery well known as the freshest chocolate in the world with an expiry period of twenty-four hours.

The box served by the waiter was rose-flavored chocolate truffles. Genevieve caught whiffs of the mixed scent of rose and chocolate in the air.

Although the waiter didn't say a word, Evangeline seemed to have known who the sender was because her facial expression darkened instantaneously as she uttered coldly, "Take it away!" "Ms. Evie..." The waiter stood rooted in his spot, looking particularly troubled.

Genevieve was afraid Evangeline would lose her temper, so she took one of the chocolate truffles from the box. "Don't let him take this away. I am quite fond of chocolate truffles. However, the expiry date for this type of chocolate is too short, so it's relatively hard to come across this delicacy," she said while placing the piece of chocolate truffle in her mouth.

Sensing Genevieve's liking for the confectionery, Evangeline didn't make things difficult for the waiter afterward.

The combined taste and smell of the chocolate and rose were gratifying. Genevieve couldn't help but take another piece of the chocolate truffle from the box. "Aren't you trying one of these? Otherwise, I'll finish the entire box soon."

"Finish the whole box if you like the chocolate." Evangeline lifted her cup of coffee and took a sip, her countenance hidden behind the drink.

After returning to the hotel, Genevieve launched the eavesdropping software on her phone. She was now informed of the things Evangeline told her housekeeper and who the latter contacted.

The subsequent few days, Genevieve didn't meet up with Evangeline, but she continuously tapped into the latter's phone.

Evangeline called Zephyr once to invite him to have a meal together, but he rejected her by saying that he was busy with work.

Besides that, Genevieve even listened in on another matter.

When Frank went to the hotel to meet with her, Genevieve asked in surprise, "Did you know about Evangeline and Alston's relationship?"

"I do," Frank replied indifferently.

Only then did Genevieve realize Evangeline yearned to marry Zephyr partially because of her family. The other contributing factor was her reluctance to continue being involved with Alston, as she despised their relationship.

Genevieve uttered in perplexity, "It is a common thing for a man to marry their sister-in-law. As someone from a mafia family, why does morality tie down Evangeline?"

Before Frank provided her with an answer, Genevieve had already gained clarity.

"I have a way to acquire information about the core members of the Sheraton family now." Although Genevieve treated Evangeline as her friend, she didn't forget her task.

She questioned Frank again, "Is there any update on Zephyr?"

Since Zephyr left her the card that night, he didn't contact Genevieve anymore, causing her to feel more afraid, fearing he might do something terrible to Johanna.
