NovelAppChapter 417 What Did You Call Him The streets were busy on New Year’s Eve, and a large crowd gathered in the central square. Instead of
the usual advertisements from major brands, the electronic screens in the central square played a New
Year’s Eve celebration TV program and filled the surrounding with melodious songs. Initially,
Genevieve did not think much when she saw Johanna walking closely with Timothy. However, she was
stunned when Johanna hugged Timothy and called him “Hubby” while asking him to buy a bubble
machine.
Genevieve thought she had misheard. Thus, she pulled Johanna close and asked, “What did you call
Timothy?”
“Hubby,” Johanna said. “What is wrong with that?” Genevieve looked at her, dumbfounded. “How can
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyou say there is nothing wrong? Why did you suddenly call him Hubby?” Meanwhile, Timothy had
bought two bubble machines, and he happened to overhear their conversation. He tapped Johanna’s
shoulder and said, “Did you forget to tell Genev that we have registered our marriage?” Johanna
exclaimed and turned to Genevieve. “Genev, have I not told you about this?” Genevieve was rendered
speechless. “In that case, I will announce it again. Timothy and I got married!” Johanna wrapped her
arms around Timothy’s waist and giggled. “Quick! Congratulate me!” “Congratulations,” Genevieve
replied weakly. She could not recall ever seeing Johanna showing interest in Timothy. Yet, it turned out
they got married. The central square was too crowded. Genevieve was concerned about her
pregnancy, so she rested on a bench at the side after walking for a while. Soon, Johanna came to her
with two steaming baked potatoes. “I asked Timothy to get drinks.” Johanna took a seat beside
Genevieve and ate a baked potato. “Men are still quite useful sometimes.” Genevieve could not help
but chuckle as she listened to Johanna’s musing. However, she recalled what Jack had done and felt
troubled again. “Jojo, I need to tell you something.” Johanna turned to her. “What is the matter?”
Genevieve looked down and said, “Your father borrowed a large sum of money from loan sharks again.
He targeted me as soon as I reached Xedells, and he told the creditors to kidnap me and make me
pay…” Johanna was stunned and asked urgently, “Genev, are you okay?” “I am fine.” Genevieve shook
her head and said guiltily, “I planned to hand over your father to the police, but Jack went overboard
and beat him to death… Jojo, I’m sorry.” “I should be the one apologizing,” Johanna replied quickly. “I
didn’t expect him to dare to cause trouble even after losing his fingers! Furthermore, he has ceased to
be my father since the day he sold me to the club.” Then, Johanna hugged Genevieve tightly. “I’m
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsorry, Genev… If anything happened to you, I wouldn’t let that man go even if Jack did not kill him!”
Genevieve was relieved to hear Johanna say that. After New Year’s Day, Genevieve informed Jack that
she felt unwell and went to the hospital alone for a health checkup. She made an appointment with a
random department at General Hospital and sneaked into the cardiology department. When she saw
Jermaine in his office, she knocked on the door. “Dr. Sitler, may I ask for your help?” Genevieve
returned from the hospital in the afternoon and quietly made arrangements. She wrote a letter in
advance. As she wrote, she wondered when Cooper would receive the letter after she was gone.
However, she felt at ease knowing Cooper was managing the company. Melissa knocked on the
study’s door when Genevieve had just turned off her laptop. “Ms. Rachford, Mr. Faulkner is here.”
Although it was Steven who had arranged for Melissa to work there, Armand and Genevieve had
divorced for a long time. Since this was Genevieve’s residence, Melissa could not let anyone in without
Genevieve’s permission. Genevieve left the study after hearing Melissa and went to the doorway to
open the door. Armand stood outside, dressed in a woolen coat. His expression was stern as usual, but
Genevieve could see a trace of loneliness in his eyes.
