Chapter 135 When Are You Coming Back
Seeing them talking and kissing next to the car, Steven could not help seeing everything, even if he wanted to treat himself as a transparent person.
After Armand closed the door, Steven could not help laughing when he saw the bright color on the former’s lips from the rearview mirror.
Steven then coughed hard to hide his laughter and said, “Mrs. Faulkner has been quite lively recently.”
Steven was the one who settled things last time. He watched Genevieve emerge from the despair of the Rachford family’s bankruptcy and the tragic death of Winifred. Later, she had been very cautious while living in Swallow Garden.
It seemed that she became lively and much happier since she moved to Regality Gardens. Her relationship with Armand also seemed to be on good terms.
Steven did not know how to express what he saw.
In the past, they lived under the same roof, but they were like a boss and a subordinate. But now, Genevieve is treating Mr. Faulkner with intimacy, as if they were equals.
“Do you want me to nag you early in the morning?” Armand raised his eyes and gave him a cold look.
“No.” Steven put away those thoughts and drove seriously.
Leaning in the seat, Armand saw a lot of messages from Timothy right after he opened WhatsApp.
Timothy texted him: The family doctor told me that Marilyn cried all night yesterday. The child in her stomach had a shock. The doctor is afraid that her baby will be in danger and he would also be in trouble if this continues. He wants to tender his resignation. What the heck did you do?
Seeing Timothy’s first message, Armand was annoyed, and his face was gloomy.
He then texted Timothy: Send another doctor over to save the baby.
Timothy replied: It depends on the pregnant woman whether the baby can survive. Don’t you know that pregnant women can have miscarriages because of mental stress?
Armand frowned again. When he was about to reply to the message, he received a phone call.
He looked down at his phone and let it vibrate.
The other party kept calling, and the phone vibrated for more than ten minutes, making his face even more gloomy.
When the phone rang again, Armand answered impatiently, “What’s the matter?”
“Mando…” The woman was crying.
Subsequently, Armand put the phone to his ear. The woman on the other side cried and said a lot of things that were heartbreaking to hear.
Nonetheless, Armand looked out the window indifferently, his eyes full of disgust.
Only when the woman was tired of crying and her voice was hoarse did Armand say, “I’m busy, and I don’t have time to go over there. I’ll ask Timothy to bring something over.”
After saying that, he hung up the phone and opened WhatsApp.
He texted Timothy: Bring your friend to Marilyn this afternoon. Don’t let her get emotional again. Do a blood test for Genevieve again after half a month.
After a while, Timothy replied to him: I’m so f*cking unlucky to know you!
Upon arriving at the company, Genevieve was so busy that she wanted to beat herself for asking for work from Jenny before.
After lunch, she wanted to flip through the two finance books during her lunch break to mentally prepare herself, but she really could not stand it. Hence, she read it at night when she got home.
After opening the book, she realized that there were many notes written on it, with business terms circled and explanations written next to them.
“Is this written by Armand? Or is it a finance book with notes bought specially from a professional?” Genevieve muttered.
She lay in her chair and looked at the book full of notes; her mood suddenly improved a lot.
She even felt that finance was not that difficult.
Armand went to Xedells on a business trip while Genevieve worked during the day and stayed up late at night reading books, so she did not have time to talk to him.
Four days passed, and Genevieve had finished a book and remembered quite a lot of content.
After relaxing, she realized she had not contacted Armand all this time.
He should be back from his business trip soon.
After thinking for a while, she texted him: Mando, when are you coming back?
