Chapter 1088
“It was my husband,” Genevieve revealed. “He thought Zephyr was dead. We had no idea Zephyr faked his death.”
Comprehension dawned on Frank. “It looks like your husband is pretty influential.”
Zephyr was far more ruthless than his father and would kill anyone he wanted. The Carlo family had suffered a
heavy blow this time, but Zephyr didn't take any action. This obviously showed he was afraid of going against his
enemy.
Something occurred to Frank as he said, “She wanted me to get her some birth control pills.”
Frank chose to help Johanna as she was with Zephyr and offered to be his informant.
Never in his wildest dreams did he expect to run into Genevieve at the hotel today. He learned that his brother was
still alive and that Johanna was a close friend of Genevieve.
Genevieve's face drained of color as remorse overwhelmed her heart.

Sometime later, Genevieve regained her senses and said in a hoarse voice, “Zephyr tried to kill me a few times but
later stopped. There must be a reason behind his decision. I'll do my best to help you wipe out the mafia. Tell them
not to hurt Jojo. When the chance arises, take her out of the country.”
“Zephyr is sly, so it isn't easy to kill him. Take it slowly,” Frank reminded her. “Before you came, I wanted to fmd
Johanna to ask her about my brother's whereabouts. However, Zephyr has hidden her too well. My men can't fmd
her.”
Genevieve unlocked her phone and showed Frank a photo. “My friend's friend came to Lostaria on a vacation a few
days back and snapped a photo showing Johanna on a cruise ship behind her. See if you can find any clues about
that ship. Or do you know the captain of that ship?”
Frank instantly recognized the ocean where the cruise ship was. “That should be Zephyr's private cruise ship. I think
he hired the staff on the ship, so I can ask my men to look into it.”
“Okay.” Genevieve nodded.
After that, Frank drove Genevieve back to the hotel.

Genevieve told him, “I attended the fashion party to get acquainted with Evangeline so I could fmd out where
Zephyr is. Alas...”
Alas, Zephyr and Evangeline's marriage is a sham.
“It's great if you can be her friend and gain her trust,” Frank replied. “Evangeline knows how ambitious Zephyr is.
She only married him so the Sheraton family could survive. Alston loves Evangeline, so he hates Zephyr. He tried to
kill Zephyr a few times but to no avail. Your husband is influential, and if he and the Leonardos were to join hands,
Zephyr might not be their match.”
Genevieve was smart enough to know what he meant. “I want Jojo out of Lostaria before they take action.”
“Aren't you worried about yourself?” Frank questioned.
Genevieve fiddled with her bracelet as her lips curled. “I've been in life-threatening situations so many times that
I'm no longer afraid of death.”

I can't let Asel grow up without a mother. Even if I have to risk my life, I must make sure Johanna gets back home
safely.
The taxi soon rolled to a stop outside the hotel.
Before Genevieve could leave, Frank said, “Thank you. Also, please thank the person who brought Patrick up on my
behalf. I will travel to Chanaea one day to thank him personally.”
Genevieve grunted in acknowledgment calmly. Afraid Frank would see through her, she spun on her heels and
hurried into the hotel.
They only chatted for one hour by the river, but Frank's words made her feel heavy-hearted.
She couldn't imagine how Frank had spent the past thirty-plus years with this deep-seated grudge on his shoulders.
His life was miserable enough, but she had given him false hope. She could imagine how furious he would be after
learning the truth.
Looks like I'll never be able to return to Lostaria again.
In a daze, Genevieve swiped her keycard to open the door to her room. When she placed the keycard into the
keycard slot, the room remained dark.
She was observant enough to realize that there seemed to be someone in her room.
