Genevieve rubbed her temples and said exasperatedly, “It’s just a small matter. He didn’t need to go that far.”
She didn’t realize that Armand would be so ruthless.
“Mrs. Jones uploaded the video as an apology, but she was using it to attack you. Because of the video, people on the internet kept hurling insults at you! That’s not a small matter anymore! She deserves it!” Johanna snorted.
The next moment, she asked, “Oh, right. Mrs. Jones is here. Do you want to see her?”
Genevieve put a few documents that she had signed aside and said with a glint in her eyes, “Sure. Bring her to the reception room. I’ll be there later.”
Johanna made a sound of agreement and left.
After Genevieve was done with her work, she walked over to the reception room.
At the moment, Sophia was pacing back and forth in the reception room anxiously. When she saw Genevieve walking in, she walked up to the latter hurriedly and forced a smile. “Mrs. Faulkner, I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said all those at the end of the video when Mr. Sullivan asked me to record it. Please forgive me.”
At that moment, Sophia was filled with regret.
She hated Genevieve for embarrassing her last night. As such, when she saw the woman and Timothy sitting together, she found a perfect angle to take a picture of them and sent it to the media sneakily. When Steven asked her to record a video of apology, she didn’t put much thought into it because everyone saw how Genevieve poured champagne on her. Back then, she thought that although Genevieve was the acting CEO of Central Group, the latter didn’t have much authority. She wasn’t afraid of Genevieve because she thought that Armand was still in a coma.
Little did she know that Armand was already awake.
Just as she was reading how the netizens were cursing at Genevieve, things took a sudden turn a few minutes later. Someone had exposed the fact that she was a mistress.
At that time, Yandel called her and scolded her, “What did you do? A few directors that I’m working closely with suddenly called to tell me that they’re stopping their trade cooperation with my company!”
Yandel only found out that Armand was the one to ask them to do what they did after he asked them.
Only then did Sophia know how big of trouble she had caused for Yandel because of an act of petty revenge that she had taken on Genevieve. At that time, the thrill that she had experienced after taking her revenge turned into fear. Because of that, she quickly headed to Central Group to apologize to Genevieve.
Genevieve walked to the couch at the front and poured a cup of coffee for herself.
“Mrs. Jones, things should end when Mr. Sullivan asked you to record an apology video. You should’ve done as you were told. However, you’re the one who caused things to develop this way because of your own motives. Who do you think should be blamed for this?”
Sophia walked up to Genevieve and begged in a low voice, “It’s my fault. It’s all my fault. Please, Mrs. Faulkner. Please forgive me for doing such stupid things.”
In response, Genevieve merely looked down and took a sip of her coffee.
Sophia gritted her teeth and kneeled.
“Mrs. Faulkner, please delete the news on the internet and ask Mr. Faulkner to spare my husband’s company,” she begged with trembling lips.
The news about her being a mistress was less important at the moment.
She was only able to live a good life for more than ten years because she was Yandel’s mistress.
That was also the reason why she continued to stay by his side even though they weren’t married by law.
If Yandel’s company was black-listed by Armand, it would be the end of her good life once Yandel lost his company and money.
She shuddered at the thought of the miserable days that she might have to experience in the future.
“Mrs. Faulkner, please help me to persuade Mr. Faulkner. I’ll grovel at your feet if you’d like. Please, I beg of you…” With that, she started banging her head on the ground.
Genevieve stayed quiet. Meanwhile, Sophia continued to bang her head on the ground without shame.
After doing that over ten times, her forehead was trickling with blood.
Looking at Sophia, who used to be a rich man’s wife, acting so miserably, Genevieve wasn’t affected by it at all.
“My husband doesn’t have a good temper. He won’t listen to me. You should call him yourself.”
