Chapter 39


    Chapter 39 His Wife


    Although Patrick had never met Marilyn before, he could tell what rtionship she had with Armand by


    thetter’s expression.


    Genevieve furrowed her eyebrows when she heard Patrick cursing. “Is that really Mando?”


    Armand always had a cold demeanor and treated people condescendingly. As far as she knew, he had


    never been as gentle as this before.


    “The woman beside Mando…” Suppressing the unusual emotions, she asked, “Is she his wife?”


    After getting married to Armand, Genevieve dug up the Faulkner family’s background.


    She knew that the Faulkner family had be sessful in Xedells and was one of the four most


    prestigious families in the city. As thew was rather outdated there, the Faulkner family’s male


    ancestors had many wives.


    Initially, Armand’s grandfather ordered the Faulkner family to only practice monogamy from his

    generation onward.


    However, the global financial crisis severely affected the Faulkner family’s business. Therefore, the ex-


    patriarch of the Faulkner family had no choice but to marry three wives to save their family.


    Armand’s mother was the second wife of the family, and also the distant rtive of Harriet.


    As his mother was born and raised in Jadeborough, Armand chose to expand his business there when


    he first entered the business circle. When he took over the Faulkner family’s core business, he moved


    all business projects to Jadeborough.


    Due to Xedells’ backdatedw, Armand could still marry another woman in Jadeborough despite


    already being married in Xedells.


    Therefore, Genevieve thought the woman beside Armand was the wife he married in Xedells.


    “You must have seen it wrongly. The man is not Armand. His figure just looks simr to him, that’s all.”


    Even though it was the first time Patrick bumped into such an intense scene, he managed to react


    quickly.


    “If that’s the case, why did you shout so loudly just now?”


    “Don’t you think her girlfriend is gorgeous? She looks just like a pop star!” Patrick’s exaggerated words


    caused Genevieve to feel speechless.


    The man they saw had already gotten onto the driver’s seat. However, she could not see his face


    clearly as the wipers were turned on. Therefore, she could only watch as the car left.


    Genevieve mumbled in exasperation, “Not only his figure, but his side profile looks like him too.”


    “What’s so odd about that?” Patrick said. “I’ve even been told I should try bing a porn star


    because I look like one from Jetroina!”


    Genevieve was speechless at that.


    To diminish Genevieve’s suspicion, Patrick spoke again. “Don’t overthink this. Although Xedells still


    maintained its polygamy policy, Old Mrs. Faulkner hated this outdatedw and ordered that the


    Faulkner family’s grandsons could only marry one wife. Therefore, Armand will only have one wife,


    which is you.”


    “Does that mean that Old Mrs. Faulkner is an easygoing person?” Genevieve asked.


    She did not know if Armand would bring her to visit Harriet. However, one could find any information on


    the inte, so Harriet probably knew about her from the news. “I probably gave her a terrible


    impression of myself,” she thought.


    “No way. She even made me cry twice from her scolding.” Patrick felt uneasy when he thought of the


    memory of him crying because of Harriet. “However, it seems like Old Mrs. Faulkner has taken quite a


    liking to you.”


    Genevieve asked curiously, “I’ve never met with Old Mrs. Faulkner before. How do you know if she


    likes me or not?”


    Immediately, Patrick realized he had said something wrong and quickly covered it up. “Old Mrs.


    Faulkner would like anyone Armand chooses, after all.”


    Once again, Genevieve was rendered speechless.


    The duo chatted casually in the cafe until one in the afternoon. Although the rain had stopped,


    Genevieve still did not see Erica anywhere.


    She decided to give Erica a call. Although thetter’s phone was not turned off, nobody picked it up.


    Immediately, a sense of uneasiness rose in Genevieve’s heart. Therefore, she ordered Patrick to track


    Erica’s GPS location on her phone. They found out that her phone was located at the entrance of


    Southwood Mansion, but when they got there, the ce itself was empty.


    “Cooper probably found out that she wanted to look for you,” Patrick analyzed. “Should I hack into


    Cooper’s phone to investigate?”


    Genevieve was reminded of Cooper’s counter-reconnaissance during the car ident. Thus, she


    shook her head. “Cooper is smarter than Erica, and he’ll definitely have security on his phone. Even if


    we try to track him, we probably wouldn’t be able to find Erica.”


    Taking onest look at the empty mansion, she turned around and entered the car. “Let’s head back.”


    The reason why she married Armand was to take revenge. If she could obtain some evidence from


    Erica, she could quickly send Cooper to jail and enable her parents to rest in peace.


    Unfortunately, her wish did note true.


    Genevieve was in a foul mood aftering back with nothing. On the way back, her phone suddenly


    rang.
