My Husband Is a Gary Stu

Chapter 1488 Is There Any News That Can Still Scare Me

After leaving the building, Timothy called Armand, intending to join them for dinner. However, both Armand and Genevieve were busy, and Sally was on a business trip abroad. So, Timothy drove to the school to pick up the twins and they had lamb stew at Golden Restaurant that evening.

Armand didn't finish work until after six. He sent a message to Genevieve, knowing that she was discussing matters with a producer at the club. He decided to wait for her at the club.

Around half past seven, he saw Genevieve emerge from the club with a few people. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Genevieve also spotted his car. After seeing everyone off, he came over to open the car door for her. Once she was seated, Armand picked up the milk tea from the glove compartment and handed it to her.

“It hasn't been more than two hours, the taste should still be fine.”

Genevieve had been drinking Chinese tea in the private room until her mouth tasted bitter. Now, her mood finally improved a bit after sipping several mouthfuls of warm milk tea.

“It's all Jerry's fault,” Genevieve said, slumped in her seat like a corpse, massaging her brow as she spoke to Armand. “Remember he was supposed to start shooting that film in early March? However, the director couldn't get a hold of him. Besides, Joash told me that Jerry called him, saying he won't have time to film for the next few months...”

The contract for this drama hadn't been signed by Jerry yet, but it was previously negotiated on his behalf by Charlotte. The director was also very satisfied with him.

If they knew that Jerry was on strike, both Kieron and the producer would be furious.

Genevieve knew that Jerry wouldn't be back for a while, but the filming schedule was already set. She first contacted Zander from Ingenuity Entertainment, and after agreeing on the terms of exchange, she arranged a detailed discussion with the director at the club.

A few of them had a lengthy discussion in the private room. Thanks to Genevieve's concessions, they finally reached an agreement with the production team and the director.

After finishing her complaint, Genevieve asked Armand, “Is he alright?”

“He's fine, but the Pann family might not be.” Armand drove away from the clubhouse entrance.

“What's wrong?” Genevieve asked urgently.

Armand didn't want to tell Genevieve about this matter, fearing it would traumatize her. But Genevieve said nonchalantly, “I've experienced death several times, what news could possibly scare me?”

Armand said, “Jerry can't find Charlotte, but Sebastian said he has already dealt with Charlotte...”

“Jerry brutally interrogated Sebastian's people for several days before he managed to pry some information out of one of them. In fact, Sebastian had secretly gone to the capital in January, and only took action after he waited for Mr. Lohan's film crew to kidnap Charlotte.

“Charlotte was indeed dead, and it was this bodyguard who stuffed her into an iron barrel and threw it into the sea.

“But Jerry refused to believe. He suspected that Sebastian was hiding someone. As long as Sebastian didn't reveal where Charlotte was, he would kill a member of the Pann family each day.”

Before he could finish speaking, Genevieve took a deep, cold breath, her face filled with shock.

Armand glanced at her from the corner of his eye, helplessly saying, “I told you that you wouldn't like what you heard, but you insisted that I tell you.”

“Is he serious?” Genevieve asked with her hand over her heart, still feeling a hint of lingering fear.

Armand said calmly, “Now, everyone in the Pann family is loyal to Jerry. As long as their surname is Pann, he spares no one regardless of their blood ties, whether they are male or female, young or old.”

Jerry had always despised the Pann family. After his foster father's death, he had absolutely no more affection for the Pann family.

“Mando, you've known him for many years, so you can't just stand by and watch him turn into a demon.” Genevieve knew that the Pann family was once mafia, but they had long since taken the righteous path.

Jerry was now completely consumed by rage.

“I couldn't persuade him, and I couldn't find an excuse to deceive him either.” Armand sighed slightly before he continued, “I had people search that sea area, but they found nothing.”

The bodyguard admitted that he was the one who sealed the iron barrel, and the lid could only be

unscrewed from the outside. Charlotte was tied up and thrown into the barrel. Even if she was alive at the time, there was no way for her to escape.
