Chapter 657 He took the bottle of whiskey from the table and poured himself a glass. Then, pointing at the man’s
face, he said, “Didn’t you get plastic surgery to look like Bruce?”
“I don’t have such a weird fetish.” Armand replied as he puused the video.
He clinked glasses with Cooper and said, “I spent a lot of money and contacted a few doctors from a
top rescarch center to make me a hyper-realistic mask.”
The latter was in disbelief when he heard that. “Aren’t hyper-realistic masks really thick?”
He had met Armand with the hyper-realistic mask previously. His face looked like it was exactly like the
original. There wasn’t a single indication that it was a mask from his eyes to his neck.
“That mask is really thin. You would have to put on makeup and medicine once you put it on too.” It
was time-consuming and tiring to repeat the process every day.
However, the thought of Genevieve and the children made him a little less tired, and he was able to
keep it up.
After finding out that the mask cost two hundred thousand and that he needed to change it every day,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCooper felt that it was only reasonable that it was so expensive.
Taking a glance at Armand’s fair skin, he asked, “Was your skin bleached?”
The former replied with a grunt before he took a sip of the whiskey. “I have to do it twice a month, and I
have to take medicine before going to sleep every night.”
“Can’t you just use an excuse? You could have said you went to the beach or something.”
“Do you think I didn’t want to?” Armand sounded upset as he said, “Bruce is a celebrity. Everyone in
the company has their eyes on him, and they need him to be fair and handsome. I can’t even get the
tiniest bit of tan.”
At the sight of the look of displeasure on his face, Cooper put his arm at the back of the couch and
said, “I can’t believe our Mr. Faulkner has become someone else’s employee now.”
Once he was done joking around, he got back to business again. “Why did you choose to use Bruce’s
identity?”
Cooper always thought that Armand was a meticulous person and that there was no way he would die
just like that. He had secretly investigated this and right when he found out that the latter was the boss
behind Earlgrandeur Capital Corporation, Steven came to him.
He could already guess that Armand wasn’t dead after hearing what Steven had said.
After that, he made an appointment with a producer so that he could meet up with Armand using a
collaboration discussion as an excuse. Cooper wanted to find a place where he could hind out
everything from Armand.
Who would have thought that both Genevieve and Jane were at the club? That was why they
didn’t have thic time to talk at all.
Until now, that is.
“He looked for me on his own. Besides, he signed a contract with Genevieve Orsi Productions. I can be
closer to Gency that way,” Armand answered as he sipped on his whiskey.
Bruce was from a family of academics, but he got into the entertainment industry because he liked to
act. He didn’t like the unspoken rules of the entertainment industry, nor did he have anyone to back him
up, which was why the shows and movies he was in weren’t as famous.
Later on, he auditioned for a role in Jack’s “For Elise” and won the best actor award through it. He

Bruce got to know Coco when they were shooting for a movie. Not long after, they started to date in
secret. The woman was great at manipulating people. Not to mention, Bruce loved her very much, so
she had everything go the way she wanted.
However, the temptations of the entertainment industry were just too great. Coco wanted to live a
luxurious life and stand above everyone else.
Perhaps it was because she felt that since Bruce’s parents were teachers, he wouldn’t be able to
satisfy her as he didn’t have a solid background in the entertainment industry. Nonetheless, she didn’t
want to leave such a gentle and caring boyfriend. Therefore, she kept him by her side while she went
out seducing other directors and producers. A while later, a friend of hers introduced a bigwig from the
industry who ended up becoming her godfather.
Bruce started to get suspicious. However, he chose to believe in Coco as they had been dating for so
many years. It was only after the media released the picture of the woman being intimate with an older
man that he kidnapped and violated her in a fit of anger.
Coco didn’t want her godfather to get angry because of this. Hence, soon after the news was released,
she turned the situation around by saying that Bruce had been abusing her.
