Chapter 682
The three men spend quite a while talking in the room.
At three in the morning, Timothy received a call from the nurse about Genevieve breaking her fever. He
and Cooper immediately rushed to the hospital.
Armand’s heart could finally settle back in his chest. He made a phone call as he heaved a relieved
sigh.
Jack accompanied Genevieve in the bathroom for a few hours. The water
in the bathtub was drained and refilled several times.
Seeing the unusual flush on Genevieve’s face receding and her breathing evening out, Jack’s tense
body finally relaxed.
He wanted to help Genevieve change
out of her wet clothes but hesitated. In the end, he called the nurse waiting outside the bathroom for
help.
Once the nurse was done, Jack carried Genevieve into the wheelchair. He then reached for the hair
dryer to blow dry her hair.

ringing.
“What?” he asked in a low tone, stepping into the bathroom to take the call.
The man on the other end of the phone spoke in Granatanolan, matching Jack’s tone. “Mr. Valentine,
the person in charge at OSL is stopping our ships from disembarking and unloading our cargo at the
port. Currently, our ships had dropped anchors in the sea.”
“You didn’t manage them beforehand?”
“OSL had changed their person in charge, and I couldn’t secure a meeting with the new officer.”
Jack’s eyes darkened.
The ships dropping anchor in the sea is a huge loss without even considering the valuable cargo
they’re transporting.
Hearing only silence on the other end, Jack’s secretary felt a chill run down his spine. He started
cautiously, “One of the cargos is for the Osborn family. The delivery date is the day after the next. Can
you make a trip back, Mr. Valentine?”
“You guys need me for everything! What’s the point of employing all of you?” Jack snapped.
The secretary held his breath and
kept silent at Jack losing his temper.
Jack had expended a lot of effort to get the Osborn family as his partner. They’ve had numerous
collaborations together.
If Osborn Corporation doesn’t get their cargo in time, they’ll be furious. However, Genevieve just broke
her fever. I want to stay by her side.
After contemplating over it briefly, Jack finally decided to return to Dartan. He made a call to the airport
as he exited the bathroom.
Coincidentally, Timothy and Cooper came into the room at that time.
Jack put his call on hold and crossed the room to Cooper. “I need to make a trip back to Dartan. I’ll be
there for about two weeks. Please help me look after Genev.”
Cooper snickered. “You deserve all the credit for what happened to . Genev.”
While the two men were bickering,
Timothy was examining Genevieve’s condition. Once he was sure her fever had broken, he whirled
around and yanked both men out of the room with him.
“With you guys fighting right by the bed, I would’ve woken up in anger if I were Genevieve,” Timothy
complained after he shut the door. A sense of relief washed over him at the thought of his wife not

The fight between men for love is too terrifying.
Timothy turned to look at Jack. “She’s my wife’s best friend. Even if you’re busy and can’t come to the
hospital, I’ll still look after Genevieve, Mr. Valentine.”
“I’m leaving two bodyguards here.” Jack pointed at two average-looking men standing not far away.
Timothy said, “Forlisle Medical is the largest shareholder of General Hospital. It’s not an exaggeration
to say that company is literally mine. With that information, who do you think dares to lay their hands on
Genevieve? You can take your bodyguards with you.”
“My people had dealt with Luther but couldn’t find Lilian.” Jack’s gaze swung to Cooper. “That’s why I’m
worried, so I’ll still leave the two bodyguards here.”
The corners of Cooper’s lips rugged into a smirk “Just admit that you want to watch Gency. You don’t
have to come up with an excuse.
Jack didn’t want to waste his breathe with Cooper any longer and strode over to the two bodyguards to
whisper something to them.
After both bodyguards nodded, Jack finally left the hospital reassuringly.
Timothy was curious. “Who’s Lilian?”
“Lilian Helt, his ex-wife.” Cooper added, “Lilian was the one that tried to kill Genev. She almost died at
Lillian’s subordinate’s hands.”
Timothy gasped.
