Chapter 179
Genevieve was stunned for a moment.
She did not know how Armand knew she was with Cooper since Steven wasn’t by her side.
Thinking back on what happened in Springwyn, Genevieve figured out that since Patrick was away overseas, Armand probably worried that she might get into trouble again, so he sent someone to watch her secretly.
Genevieve quickly put aside her thoughts and replied to Armand: Yes. We are at Point Restaurant. I’m here to get back my stuff from Cooper.
Armand replied: I’ll be there in a while.
Genevieve was about to reply to Armand that she would be back soon, but she only responded with a yes, seeing that he was coming. As Genevieve raised her head and saw Cooper, still eating slowly, she couldn’t wait to stuff all the food into his mouth.
However, she held back her impatience and waited quietly.
As soon as Cooper finished his steak, Genevieve stood up and took the violin case in the seat opposite her.
Upon opening the violin case, she found a reddish-brown violin in it.
The violin had not been used for a long time, but there was no sign of dust on it as if it was a newly bought violin.
Seeing that the violin was still good as new, Genevieve composed herself and closed the violin case. She then picked up her phone on the table to type for a while and handed it to Cooper.
The message read: I’ve transferred the money for this violin to Specter Corporation’s corporate account.
Cooper choked as he saw the words on her phone, and his eyes darkened. This was your violin, to begin with…
Just when Cooper took out the few jewelry boxes on the seat and placed them on the table for Genevieve, Genevieve received a message from Armand saying he was outside the restaurant.
As Genevieve looked out the window and saw the Maybach that Armand usually drove, she quickly took out a few banknotes from her bag, placed them on the table, and hurriedly left with the violin.
She had not looked at Cooper the entire time.
Cooper stared at Genevieve’s back as she left hurriedly and then shifted his gaze to the window. His expression turned grim as he saw the car parked by the road.
She was my girl.
Genevieve dashed toward the Maybach by the road with the violin in her hand.
The car window was wound down.
From a distance, Genevieve could see Armand sitting in the car with a cold expression as if he was in a bad mood.
Genevieve saw Armand looking in her direction, so she pointed at the car behind him. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
She typed on her phone and showed it to Steven, who was in the driver’s seat. The message read: Steven, I drove here.
“Okay.” Steven nodded.
Genevieve opened the back door of the Maybach, and after Armand got out of the car, they walked toward her car together while Steven drove off afterward.
After they got into the car, Genevieve quickly typed to explain to Armand: Back then, the people that Cooper hired rummaged through the entire Rachford residence and took away all the valuables. I came here today to get back this violin from him. I didn’t drink a sip of the water that the waiter served.
Armand glanced at Genevieve’s violin case in the back seat, seemingly thinking about something as his brows loosened slightly.
“All right.”
Sir, the strings of the violin don’t seem right. I have to buy a new set from the violin shop. Genevieve handed her phone to Armand and started the car engine.
As Armand scrolled up her memo and saw a bunch of “Sir”s in her memo, he frowned.
He turned off Genevieve’s phone as he did not want to see her messages and asked, “Are you still unable to voice out?”
Genevieve nodded.
Although they had gone for a checkup in the hospital at Springwyn, and the doctor had said her vocal cords weren’t seriously damaged and would slowly recover, she was still unable to make a sound when she tried to speak.
Armand frowned and said, “I’ll send a message to Timothy when I get back. I’ll ask him to find a doctor to look at you for when you go to the hospital tomorrow.”
Genevieve nodded again, grinning with her lips pursed.
Fortunately, Armand did not say to have Timothy check on her, or else she would really suspect that Timothy was omnipotent. After all, if that happened, it would mean that Timothy knew everything from neurosurgery to obstetrics and gynecology.
