Chapter 791
Meanwhile, Genevieve was unfazed as she stared at Sylvie dying in Zayne's arms.
She had known about Sylvie's background a long time ago from Jack. Sylvie grew up in the slums, where the
environment was filthy and unbearable. Due to her tragic childhood, Sylvie was determined and desperate to climb
higher on the social ladder to obtain everything she had never had.
Sylvie was indeed pitiful, but Genevieve did not sympathize with her.
If Sylvie had not harmed Johanna or killed Jane, Genevieve might not have cared about interfering in Sylvie's
ambitious plan at all.
On the other side, Cooper did not spare another glance at the couple on the floor. He pushed his chair backward
and got to his feet. “I'll ask Steven to bring Lucian and Amanda out later. We'll have our meal at Golden Restaurant
together. I don't have work in the afternoon, so we can bring them out to have fun.”
Genevieve grunted in response. Then, she picked up her bag and left the cafe with Cooper.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThey were walking along the roadside when a Rolls-Royce Ghost drove in their direction and came to a halt in front
of them.
The door to the passenger seat was pushed open, revealing Jack's handsome, mixed-race facial features. He sat
inside the car in his usual elegant demeanor, seemingly not disconcerted by that incident earlier.
Upon seeing him, Genevieve fell into a momentary daze. “You didn't go back to Dartan?”
“I went to Xedells to handle some matters and just returned to Jadeborough today.” Jack remained seated inside
the car. “I'll send you back. I want to visit Mandy.” Pausing briefly, he added, “May I?”
Genevieve felt a lump form in her throat.
In the few years at Dartan, Jack had not only witnessed the two kids' growth but also taken care of them. He had
personally changed their diapers and fed them formula milk while holding them in his arms.
He had done almost everything within a father's responsibilities.
She knew how much he loved the two children. Jack was very fond of Lucian and Amanda, but after all his
contributions, he needed to ask for Genevieve's permission when he wished to meet with the kids now.
Suppressing her churning emotions, Genevieve uttered, “Of course. Mandy misses you too.”
Before getting into Jack's car, she told Cooper she would bring the kids along during lunchtime later. “Go to Swallow
Garden. We live there now.”
“Okay.” Jack then instructed the driver to go to Swallow Garden.
He turned sideways to look at her beautiful profile. Although he knew Genevieve would never love him, his affection
toward her did not decrease even then.
“Is Armand keeping Mandy company?”
“No. He went out two days ago because he has something to do.” Genevieve pursed her lips in hesitation. She could
not help but ask Jack, “Did Mando contact you?”
Upon hearing her question, Jack laughed mockingly. “He's such a coward.”
Genevieve was confident Armand had gotten in touch with Jack, so she anxiously probed further. “What do you
mean? What is Mando doing, and why isn't he contacting me?”
Jack merely gazed downward at her and chuckled. “It's not a bad thing that he's not around.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBefore she could make sense of his words, she felt a puff of mist sprayed on her face. Unknowingly, Genevieve
breathed in a significant amount of that substance. She grew dizzy after a few seconds and quickly passed out.
Jack placed her in his embrace and caressed her cheek with his finger as his gaze turned grim.
When Genevieve came to, she noticed she was inside the mansion she stayed in Dartan. Genevieve hastily got off
the bed, wanting to open the door, only to realize the door was locked.
She dialed the internal line's number downstairs.
A housekeeper swiftly answered the call, and she asked politely in Granatanolan, “Ms. Rachford, do you want
something to eat?”
"Where is Jack?”
“Mr. Valentine went out at nine earlier.”
“Give him a call and tell him to come back and meet me!” Genevieve was infuriated. She did not anticipate Jack to
act so despicably, kidnapping her again, and to Dartan, no less!
The housekeeper replied, “Mr. Valentine ordered us to take care of your meals. He will be back once he's done with
his work.”
All of a sudden, an idea popped into Genevieve's mind when she glanced at the locked door. “Never mind then. I'm
hungry. Send some breakfast up to my room.”
