Genevieve had long guessed the result. So now that it was confirmed, she was not affected by it.
Previously, she wanted Samantha and Cooper to turn on each other. However, when Armand was seriously injured and in a coma, Cooper helped her a lot and made her mature quickly.
Cooper’s move on the Rachford family, including how they got to where they were, was caused by Samantha.
He had merely been her pawn for the past twenty years. Hence, the person who should atone for my parents’ deaths is Samantha.
Genevieve kept the documents in the folder and put them back in the drawer.
She decided that when Cooper returned from abroad, she would give him the report.
However, if he’s on Samantha’s side, I won’t go easy on him.
Just as Genevieve closed the drawer, there was a knocking on her door, and Cassie walked in. “Ms. Rachford.”
The secretary placed a document on the table. “Mr. Carlson just called. He has arrived in Baykeep and wants to meet with the representative of Empower Group, but the person said that they won’t sign the contract.”
“What’s going on?” Genevieve picked up the document and flipped through the pages. “Did they not reach an agreement on the price?”
“No. Empower Group simply didn’t sign without giving any reason.” Cassie said, “We checked and the group didn’t contact other companies in private.”
Genevieve had mostly memorized the list of companies that worked closely with Central Group, so she knew that that company had cooperated with them for five years. Their contract had expired a few days ago and needed to be renewed. The price stated by Faulkner Group was higher than before.
Empower Group had already agreed on the price, so why did they not sign the contract when the representative of Central Group went over?
“Help me book a flight to Baykeep. I’ll go over and have a look,” Genevieve instructed. She got up, put on her coat, and hurried out with the document.
She did not want to lose the company that had been working with Central Group for several years.
After she arrived in Baykeep, the boss of Empower Group happened to be on a business trip to Feston, so she had to stay in the city.
Two days later, the boss returned to Baykeep. Genevieve went to Empower Group in person and chatted with him in the office for more than four hours. He finally agreed and signed a contract with Central Group again.
By the time she returned to Jadeborough, it was five days later.
In the morning, as soon as Genevieve entered the company and put down her bag, Johanna came into the office with a cup of coffee.
“Did you miss me, Genev?”
Only then did Genevieve discover that she had come to work and was puzzled. “Didn’t I tell you to rest in the hospital?”
“After resting for so many days, the wound has long healed.” Johanna pouted as she grumbled, “Besides, it’s so boring in the hospital. Since Dr. Jensen was busy, I was lying in bed every day watching TV shows, bored to death.”
Upon hearing that, Genevieve was amused.
She took out a promissory note from the drawer and handed it to Johanna, “From now on, you don’t owe me money. I’ll ask Cassie to send you to work in a big fashion company.”
“No way!” Johanna pushed the note back and said seriously, “As a secretary, it’s my job to open parcels and get you coffee. The company will compensate me since it’s a work-related injury, but I must pay back the money I owe you!”
Genevieve was about to say something, but Johanna beat her to it. “Genev, I work hard because I owe you money. If you don’t let me pay it back, I’ll lose my life goal. I truly want to stay here and work with you.”
Johanna held Genevieve’s arm and winked at her. “I’m so beautiful. Don’t you feel anything for me?”
“All right. You may stay if you wish.” The latter pulled her arm back.
Genevieve always remembered Johanna’s kindness.
Since Johanna desperately wants to pay back the money, I’ll use it to secretly buy a house for her.
