Chapter 654
Genevieve took a bite and noticed that it had been cooked for too long. It was difficult to chew and
didn‘t taste great.
She told Amanda to spit out the stcak she was cating and said with a smile. “I followed the recipe when
I was cooking, so I have no idea why it turned out like this. Let‘s just get takeout.”
The woman had only just gotten to the living room to get her phone when the doorbell rang,
It was a receptionist in uniform standing at the door. Secing that Genevieve had opened the door, she
handed her the food container she was holding and said, “Ms. Rachford, this is your dinner.”
“All right. Thank you.” Genevieve took the food and saw Cooper‘s name and phone number on the
receipt.
The container was filled with grilled meat wrapped in vegetables, along with steaming cheese sticks
with pasta.
“Mommy, this grilled meat is yummy!” Amanda exclaimed after eating a piece.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLucian‘s eyes had also lit up after he took a bite of the food.
Genevicve threw the meat she cooked into the trashican. Then, she grabbed two bowls and filled them
with chowder.
She took a sip and was stunned by how delicious it was.
This tastes familiar.
It was nearing New Year‘s Day, and the atinosphere was getting more and more festive.
Genevieve felt it would be too tiring to hold an anniversary banquet for a small company, so she
booked a few tables at Lovely Heart Hotel to have dinner with her employees. She gave them and the
artists who attended each a new year‘s gift and twenty thousand to celebrate.
As the guests ate, she was so busy welcoming and greeting the higher–ups of the company and the
artists she invited that she quickly became exhausted.
She went to the restroom and saw Bruce on her way back. He seemed to be talking to someone at the
entrance. By the time she was done talking to one of the higher–ups, he was already gone,
Then, on her way home from dinner, Genevieve could vaguely remember the video,
The man‘s frivolous way of speaking surfaced in her mind, and she couldn‘t help thinking that it was
completely different from the man‘s attitude in real life.
Not only that, but she also had no idea what Bruce was thinking at all. If he was so sure that he could fool me, why didn‘t he just con me of my money and resources? Illy did he have to make a bet with someone else like that? Is it he afraid that they would snitch, and I would not give him any work in a fit of anger?
A few days before New Year‘s, Jack finally returned froin Xedells. Genevieve and the man brought
the children to stock up on their holiday supplies.
Even though the man had not been in any new movies in a long time, he was still recognized by his old
fans as they walked the streets. Sccing him, the fans started to scream and surround him while asking
for pictures.
Genevieve took the children and left the place, separating themselves from him for the sake of the
children‘s safety.
She was worried that the fans would upload pictures of them online, trending them on social media
platforms. After getting into the car, she pulled out her phone and saw that there wasn‘t a single picture
of the children on Twitter, nor was Jack trending.
The woman thought that Cooper had sent someone to help, and she couldn‘t help but heave a sigh of
relief.
On New Year‘s Eve, Genevieve gave Steven a call. “I‘m currently overseas handling some stuff, and
Timothy has surgery to perform tonight. Besides, I don‘t really feel like having New Year‘s Eve dinner,”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe man informed.
At six in the evening, she brought the children to Golden Restaurant,
To celebrate New Year‘s, the owner of the restaurant had redecorated the place half a month ago. He
had emptied out a space at the center and set up a stage.
That way, singers could sing and dance while the customers dined.
With such a setup in the restaurant, the whole place seemed a lot more lively.
Being the playful and lively kid that she was, Amanda couldn‘t bring herself to sit still in her seat. In just
a short while, she ran to the side of the stage and enjoyed the performance with the other children.
Cooper called for a waiter and handed him a jewelry box after giving some instructions.
After the performance ended, a host went on stage and said through the mic, “The upcoming event is a
little special. All the kids here can participate.”
Then, he began presenting the prizes of the event, which included dolls and remote–controlled cars.
The prize for first place was a tiara covered in diamonds.
