Chapter 31


    Harriet loved everything, including the style and color, about the suits Genevieve picked out. Thus,


    Harriet bought all of them. After selecting the two suits to gift Armand, Genevieve thought the neckties


    in the drawer looked nice, so she picked some out. “Grandma, these two neckties go well with the suits


    we just picked out.” As Genevieve spoke, she passed a ck card to the shop assistant. She


    continued, “These two are gifts. Please wrap them nicely.” “I’ll foot the bill. How could I let you pay?”


    Harriet stopped Genevieve. “Don’t worry about it. It’s just two ties. I haven’t even thanked you for


    chatting with me for so long,” said Genevieve as she pushed Harriet’s card back to her. “No. That won’t


    do. These two are unrted matters.” Genevieve pondered for a moment and said, “Grandma, there’s


    a boutique upstairs. Why don’t you gift me a gown, and we’ll call it even?” “Okay.” Harriet finally smiled.


    The boutique upstairs was a tailor shop. All of their clothes were handsewn, and they used high-quality


    fabric. Harriet touched one of the gowns and was reluctant to let go. Genevieve could tell that Harriet


    was interested. She took the one Harriet had her eyes on and said, “Grandma, this one suits you. Let


    me help you.” Harriet was a Jazonian woman. She loved figure-hugging gowns, but she hurt her arm


    during an act in front of her grandson. Therefore, she could not wear a figure-hugging gown for the time


    being. In the end, Harriet bought two of them and was perfectly satisfied. When Genevieve left the mall


    with Harriet, the sky had begun to darken, and she received a notification on her phone. Genevieve


    checked her phone and smiled. She turned to Harriet and said, “Grandma, something came up, and I


    need to go now. Is someoneing to pick you up, or should I call a cab for you?” “I’m fine. Go ahead.


    Someone wille and fetch me.” Harriet waved her hand. Since Harriet had put it that way,


    Genevieve didn’t probe further. She waited for Patrick to drive the car from the underground parking lot,


    then opened the car door and got in. Right after Patrick’s car left, a Mercedes-Benz stopped by the


    roadside. Frankie saw Harriet carrying multiple shopping bags alone. He hurried over and took them off


    her hands as he said, “Old Mrs. Faulkner, why didn’t you let the housekeepers follow you again?” “I


    haven’t called, so why are you here?” asked Harriet in surprise. “Mr. Armand called and told me.”


    Harriet got in the car and nced at the shopping bags after Frankie put them in. She btedly


    realized that Genevieve had paid for the gowns too. “This child…” Harriet shook her head with a smile.


    With curiosity, Frankie asked, “What is it?” “Armand did a good job this time. He found a good


    granddaughter-inw for me.” Harriet smiled and seemed very happy. She continued, “Out of all my


    granddaughters-inw, she’s the only likable one.” “Didn’t you say Ms. Rachford came from a non-


    reputable family?” Frankie had a look of confusion. He added, “You even asked me to prepare the


    money to drive her away…” Harriet scoffed, “Can’t I have a change of heart?” Soon, Harriet turned her


    gaze to the view outside the car window. Her gaze turned sharp as she said, “As long as Armand gets


    married, it’s good. What should not be coveted will not be coveted again. It’s about time someone gives


    up.” Frankie understood what Harriet meant. He answered, “Yes.” However, he sighed in his heart. I bet


    things would turn ugly once the person finds out that Mr. Armand has gotten married. The person will


    never give up. For the past few days, the outside world had been convinced of Erica and Cooper’s


    rtionship because Erica brought a child to the hospital for a consultation. The scandal also affected


    Specter Corporation’s stock prices. Cooper wanted to prevent the scandal from causing an impact on


    thepany. However, regardless of how much money and manpower he had expended to do so, he


    couldn’t keep a lid on the news. Furthermore, he couldn’t find out the culprit behind all this. That day,


    Cooper went to Feston for a meeting to discuss arge-scale coboration. He was worn out when he

    returned to Jadeborough at night. He had just switched on his phone when he received a text message


    from an unknown sender. The text message read: Mr. Cooper, your girlfriend is now with a man in


    Room 2588 in Langfield Hotel. He narrowed his eyes and thought that the room number was familiar.


    Langfield Hotel… Room 2588? While heading out of the airport, he dialed Erica’s phone number. The


    call got through, but she didn’t pick up. Cooper then called the housekeeper of the mansion. He found


    out from the housekeeper that Erica would be homete because she was meeting her close friends.


    His heart dropped, and he coldly said to the driver, “Langfield Hotel!”
