My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand) -
Chapter 490 Is The Person Sent By You
"If you're bored, let me read you the financial news." Just as Genevieve touched the phone on the table, her daughter gave her a call.
She took the phone out of the ward before answering the call, "Can't you just sleep at night, Sweetie?"
"But it's not time for bed yet." Amanda whined, "I miss you so much, Mommy."
"I miss you too," Genevieve said sweetly.
She gave her daughter two kisses through the phone. "Daddy is hurt and I have to take care of him for some time, so I can't accompany you."
Hearing that, Amanda asked anxiously, "Why is Daddy hurt? Is it serious?"
"Yes, very serious." At the thought of Armand's gunshot wound, Genevieve's beautiful eyes narrowed.
She then asked gently, "Is Mr. Valentine home, Sweetie?"
"Yes. He came back today to have dinner with us!"
After chatting with her daughter, Genevieve walked to the window at the end of the corridor and dialed Jack's number.
The call soon got through. "What's up?" he asked with a smile.
"You have eyes all over Jadeborough. How's it possible that you don't know what happened?" Genevieve asked rhetorically, "Was that person sent by you?"
Jack fell silent for a moment. "Do you not trust me at all, Genev?"
She was rendered speechless.
"Yes. I know that you were kidnapped by Mr. Wasco's wife." He continued, "But she's very cunning and knows how to take the road without surveillance. When my men finally found you guys, they saw you and Cooper taking Armand to the hospital. Only through them did I replace out that he was injured. Since I've promised you, Genev, I will never break it."
Genevieve held the phone in silence.
She knew that Jack was cruel and cunning to others, but he never once broke his promises to her.
She pursed her lips. "Knowing that it has nothing to do with you is enough."
"I'll have someone take care of Mr. Wasco and his wife for you," Jack said in a deep voice.
Although he was not at the scene and was unsure of what was going on, the fact that Armand was seriously injured alone meant that the matter was serious.
However, Genevieve turned him down. "No need. I'll take care of it myself."
It wasn't Mr. Wasco and his wife who caused Armand's gunshot wound. Moreover, I don't like Jack handling matters by taking lives, no matter how big or small the matter was.
After getting off the phone, she returned to the ward and accompanied Armand throughout the morning.
Seeing that he could not eat, she also did not feel like eating at noon, merely chewing half an apple.
At half-past three in the afternoon, Cooper came to the hospital.
He had gone to Jan's house in the morning to inquire about the incident. Brenda told him that she had received a call from the housekeeper at home, who said that a woman named Genevieve kept coming to the house and was very close to Jan. The housekeeper also mentioned Shirley liked her very much.
Coupled with the photos circulating on the Internet, the already suspicious Brenda went berserk and came up with the plan of killing Genevieve before she committed suicide.
When Cooper learned of this, he immediately asked Jan to call all the housekeepers over to replace that person.
However, after Brenda took Genevieve out of the mansion in the afternoon the day before, the housekeeper also quietly left and did not appear in any of the surveillance footage within the city.
Moreover, there were very few cameras on that particular road in Xemrich, and it was pitch-black at night, so the housekeeper was nowhere to be found.
Genevieve reckoned that the housekeeper from the Wasco residence was in cahoots with the person who shot Armand from the shadows, but she did not understand.
Their target was me, but why did they shoot Armand? When I was held hostage by Brenda, I was only a few steps away from the cliff. If they had shot me, I would have died undoubtedly.
Looking at the man lying in the hospital bed, she uttered in frustration, "Back then, I took pity on Mr. Wasco's daughter, so I went to teach her violin. I didn't expect such a thing to happen. It's all my fault..." "It's not your fault. The person truly wanted to make a move on you, and you couldn't defend yourself," said Cooper.
"Mr. Wasco has offered to transfer thirty percent of his company's shares to you in the hope that we could resolve this matter in private and let his wife off the hook."
Genevieve was taken aback by his words.
She figured that those were all the shares Jan had.
If I get the shares and work with another shareholder to kick Mr. Wasco out in the future, the company will no longer be his. Is he offering his company to protect his wife? Genevieve suddenly recalled Landon's words during the time they had a meal at Golden Restaurant.
"Businessmen like me and Mr. Wasco dare not say that we aren't hungry for wealth and power, nor dare to hand over our lives and company to someone else."
But now, Mr. Wasco's approach is so much like Armand's...
