Chapter 26 Come Upstairs
“Armand, you’re so mean! Your wife made that soup herself.” Patrick had mingled with Genevieve for a
few days and got along well with her, so they were almost best friends at this point.
Thus, Patrick took a huge gulp of the soup as a gesture of his support for Genevieve. His facial
expression then became contorted.
“Since you like it so much, you can finish it.” As if he did not notice Patrick grimacing, Armand added,
“You’re wee.”
“Is it that bad?” Genevieve muttered with dissatisfaction.
Hence, she took a sip of the soup as well and almost died from the peculiar taste.
Patrick remained courteous; he bit the bullet and swallowed the mouthful of soup. “Mrs. Faulkner, you
should leave the cooking to the housekeeper. Cooking doesn’t seem to suit you, so you shouldn’t enter
the kitchen anymore.”
Genevieve did not dare to take action against Armand, so she decided to bully Patrick instead. “Are
you treating me with disdain while drinking the soup I cooked? Finish this whole pot of mushroom soup
tonight. Otherwise, I’ll take it as you’re looking down on me!”
With hopelessness written all over his face, Patrick turned to look at his brother, saying, “Steven, end
me now!”
“End yourself,” replied Steven without a shred of concern.
The atmosphere at the dining table suddenly became lively. There was even a hint of a smile on the
face of Armand, who was usually frosty and distant.
Soon, Armand finished his dinner.
When he pushed away the chair to go upstairs, he uttered to Genevieve, “Come and look for me in the
master bedroomter.”
What?
Genevieve was stunned.
She had only ever entered the master bedroom that belonged to him that one time. After that, he
stayed in the master bedroom while she resided in the guest room. Why is he asking me to go to his
room during his visit here this time?
“Mrs. Faulkner, you should hurry up and eat, then go upstairs. Mr. Faulkner might need you,”
Genevieve remained silent.
She did not know whether what Steven was implying was the same as what she was thinking.
Regardless, after dinner, she went up to the second floor.
When she discovered that the door of the master bedroom was slightly ajar, she became even more
nervous.
Genevieve pushed open the door and entered. The room was filled with warm yellow light, yet Armand
was nowhere to be found. However, the light in the bathroom was turned on, and there was the sound
of water flowing inside. A shirt and pants were strewn in front of the bathroom door as well.
Although he said that he’s not interested in my body, I guess men have their needs at times too…
While walking toward the bathroom, Genevieve kept consoling herself. It’s not like I’ve never slept with
this man before. Moreover, I’ve already shown my naked self to himst time. There’s nothing to be shy

about!
After taking a deep breath, Genevieve entered the misty bathroom and saw Armand lying in the
bathtub. His muscr body was on full disy for her, and his long legs were spread wide open in the
water.
Such a bold scene caused her face to flush beet red.
Armand heard the door creak open. His eyes were cold and stern as he looked at Genevieve, inquiring,
“Why did youe in?”
Weren’t you the one who told me toe upstairs?
After a moment of speechlessness, Genevieve quickly walked over, picked up the showerhead hanging
on the wall, and knelt beside the bathtub. “I’ll help you wash your hair.”
The man did not reject her offer. Hey in the bathtub with his eyes shut.
Genevieve had been the pampered young miss of the Rachford family for twenty-three years. It had
always been the housekeeper serving her, so she never served others.
Now, she had to help Armand. The woman clumsily took the showerhead and wetted his hair, then
squeezed some shampoo onto his head. Due to her blunder, she almost massaged the shampoo into
his eyes.
In the bright, luxurious bathroom, only the sound of their shallow breathing could be heard.
Armand lives the life of a king! To have someone serve him like this… Does this mean that I’ll need to
be the proactive one as well in bedter?
Out of the blue, the man asked, “What did you study?”
“Do you mean my specialization? I did Simultaneous Interpretation.” Genevieve pursed her lips and
answered, “I went to study in Dartan in Year Twelve. I’m fluent in six foreignnguages, and I obtained
a Ph.D.”
If Specter Corporation needed to send someone for overseas negotiation, she would be their
representative.
“Mrs. Faulkner, it looks like you’re not entirely useless. You actually have some presentable skills,” said
Armand with a chuckle.
Genevieve fell silent. She could not tell whether he was praising or mocking her.
The woman was somewhat befuddled. When she turned on the showerhead and aimed the water at
his scalp to rinse the shampoo off, the icy water flowed into his eyes along with the shampoo foam.
She frantically turned off the showerhead.
“I’m so sorry!” Genevieve hurriedly wiped the foam away from the man’s eyes while apologizing.
Nevertheless, her lips were curved slightly upward, which revealed her true feelings.
Armand could see the tiny change in her expression within a single nce. He stretched out his arm
and pulled her into the bathtub unexpectedly.
Landing on his chest, Genevieve was nowpletely soaked.
“Mrs. Faulkner, it seems that you’re having fun, aren’t you?” Armand pinched her chin and lowered his
head, and his breath fell on the woman’s cheek.
“Not at all,” denied Genevieve, who tried her best to retreat backward. However, his aura totally
enveloped her, causing her heart to beat wildly. “I really didn’t do it on purpose just now.”
“Does that mean you’re intentionally ying hard-to-get with me?”
