Unfortunately, Cooper had to make Genevieve believe the act, so he pushed his anger down.
Exasperated, he turned to Genevieve and said, “It's as you see, Genev. She is the one I love and the
only one I will marry.”
Cooper turned his attention to Armand after that. “It's late. Mr. Faulkner, please help me take Genev
home.”
Armand murmured an affirmative reply before heading over to grab Genevieve's bag and lead her out
of the room.
Cooper waited until Armand and Genevieve had left before he dropped his smile and picked up the
cutlery on the table. “I already have dinner, so you can take everything you brought with you and
leave.” He paused for a moment before mercilessly adding, “Also, please never visit again.”
Sally pulled up a chair and sat down before crossing her legs and leaning back. “I just did you a favor,
and this is how you repay me? By chasing me away?”
Cooper grabbed the bowl of soup and kept sipping away. It was as though he were pretending that she
wasn't there.
Sally saw the half-peeled apple on the table, so she picked it up and continued peeling it.
Her gaze was aimed downward, and her voice was stoic when she said, “My aim and gunmanship are
on point. The bullet I fired wouldn't have missed my target's head, so I can say for sure that I'm not the
one who shot you.”
“You may not be the one who shot me, but you are still the one who fired first,” growled Cooper as he
slammed his bowl of soup onto the table. He had a scowl on the entire time he spoke.
The situation at the time had everyone on edge, so no one dared to make the first move. However,
Sally, who was hidden in the shadows, had fired her gun.
If Harry hadn't dashed forward, Genevieve would've been dead.
Sally replied, “Even if I wasn't the one who shot first, Zephyr would still kill everyone after grabbing
those diamonds.”
Cooper was too tired to listen to her excuses, so he grinned evilly. “Armand wasn't there at the time, so
he doesn't know the specifics of what happened. What do you think will happen to the Loake family if
he were to discover those details? You killed the President of the Carlo family, so in a way, you have
avenged Ethan's death. That means I'm no longer your tool and am free to share whatever information
I want with whomever I want.”
Cooper had only struck a deal with Sally to protect Genevieve. That was why he had volunteered to be
the bait.
He also thought that Zephyr wasn't dumb enough to come all the way to Chanaea to hurt Genevieve. It
simply didn't make any sense. After all, Zephyr knew just how powerful Genevieve's maternal family
and Armand were.
“I have never seen you as a tool,” said Sally as she placed the peeled apple she had cut on a plate.
“Oh, then what are we? F*ck buddies?” said Cooper as he looked right at Sally's beautiful face. He
narrowed his eyes and sneered. “Ms. Loake, your family is powerful, but I'm not interested in being
your man. If you miss Ethan that much, may I suggest finding someone who looks similar to him? You
can get the guy to do plastic surgery so he would look exactly like Ethan. That way, you can have
Ethan back.”
Jane's death had killed whatever little capacity Cooper had left in his heart for love. At that moment, he
was done with love and didn't want to waste his time on another woman again.
He would settle for a future where all he had to do was to protect Specter Corporation and Genevieve.
Genevieve didn't come around until she was inside the elevator. She frowned and said, “Wait a minute,
why should I leave? She's the one who's snatching my man.”
Under normal circumstances, shouldn't I be so furious that I slap that woman across her face or
something? Why did I leave just like that?
It was also at that moment she realized her hand was a little warm. When she shifted her gaze to it,
she saw Armand holding her hand.
The realization prompted her to extract her hand from his grip. She could still feel the warmth from his
palm, and it felt weird. Not quite knowing what to do with her hand, she reached out and pressed the
button on the elevator.
Armand double-tapped the same button, canceling the command for the elevator to head back up and
allowing it to continue moving to the underground parking lot.
“What are you doing? I want to head back there to teach that homewrecker a lesson,” complained
Genevieve.
“You can do that the next time you run into her,” replied Armand. “You don't like the pungent smell of
disinfectants in the hospital, anyway.”
The inpatient department had many long-term patients who had to stay there to receive treatment.
Hence, the smell of disinfectant was heavier there. It also reeked of different medications, so
Genevieve did feel rather uncomfortable there.
They had stayed in Cooper's room for quite some time before they left, so the scent of disinfectants
lingered on them.
Armand fished a small tin box out of his pocket. He got two pieces of candy out of it and handed them
to Genevieve. She hesitated for a moment before accepting them.
When she popped them into her mouth, she realized they were cherry blossom-flavored candies that
were sweet and fragrant.
The discomfort Genevieve felt faded when those candies melted in her mouth. Curious, she asked,
“Have I ever told you that I dislike the smell of disinfectants?”
