My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand)
Chapter 410 Could Not Afford To Take The Risk

After leaving the hospital, Jane was about to bring Genevieve to breakfast when her father, Peter, called. Jane asked, "Genevieve, do you need me to give you a ride back to the hotel?”

"No need." Genevieve shook her head. "The hotel is in the opposite direction of your house. I can take a taxi." Jane took off her gloves and offered them to Genevieve. The latter was pregnant and had to keep warm.

Genevieve hailed a taxi by the road and headed back to the hotel.

A short while later, the taxi rolled to a stop when the light turned red.

Without warning, a brute man wearing a beanie scurried toward the taxi.

The driver realized that he didn't put up the hired sign and immediately did that. He also wound the window down and waved at the man.

"I'm occupied!" he declared.

Before the driver could say anything else, the man pulled a gun out of his clothes and pointed it at the driver's head. As he released the safety, the driver paled in horror.

Genevieve was glancing out of the window when she realized something was wrong. Her entire body stiffened.

The doors were locked, so she couldn't get out.

She spotted two men coming over to stand on both sides of the vehicle.

The person who was pointing the gun at the driver's head cocked his head and ordered, "Get out!"

As his life was at risk, the driver had no choice but to raise his hands as he got out of his car.

The men standing outside immediately got into the backseat, so Genevieve was stuck between them. There was no way for her to escape. The man wearing a beanie pocketed his gun and got into the driver's seat.

He floored the accelerator, and the car sped off.

It only took them thirty seconds when the light was red to hijack the taxi and drive away.

Knowing that they were targeting her, Genevieve kept her cool.

None of them uttered a word.

The taxi sped all the way out of town before the man sitting on Genevieve's left broke the silence. "Do you know that your dad owes us a lot of money?"

"My parents died over a year ago," came Genevieve's answer. "I think you got the wrong person."

The man snorted and fished out a photo from his pocket to show it to her. "Your dad gave us this photo. He also told us you are in this taxi and asked us to get the money from you. If he wasn't your dad, why would he know your whereabouts?"

It was indeed Genevieve's photo, but she had no idea who knew her whereabouts this well.

The man showed her another IOU. "Your dad borrowed a total of eighty million from us. He wrote this himself. If he can't pay us back on time, we can take you as collateral."

Genevieve saw Yorick's name on the IOU.

Even though Johanna acted ruthlessly, he still refused to change and continued gambling. A leopard cannot change its spots, huh? I should've taken action and sent him to the police station.

The man observed Genevieve and flashed a devious smile. "You're prettier in real life. You should be worth around eighty million."

Genevieve initially wanted to say that she didn't know who Yorick was. However, she was scared that the men might realize she was Armand's ex-wife if she were to tell them her real name. They might take her life, as they were afraid Armand would take revenge on them.

Even if they only had the notion of killing her, she couldn't afford to risk herself and her children.

After contemplating briefly, Genevieve looked down. "He is addicted to gambling for a long time, so our family is in poverty. I can't give you eighty million at once..."

"Fifty million will do," the man told her. "You can pay off the remainder within a week. That's the best we can offer. Otherwise, we'll sell you off to get the money back!"
