Chapter 180


    Genevieve drove to a musical instrument store and picked up a set of strings and tools before returning


    to Regality Gardens with Armand.


    When Genevieve set foot in the house, she did not see Maria at the kitchen ind.


    Noticing Genevieve looking for someone all around the house, Armand caught on to what she was


    doing and uttered, “I didn’t see you around earlier when I got here, so I sent Maria back to Swallow


    Garden. She’ll drop by again tomorrow morning.”


    Genevieve was speechless. She showed him the text: There are even more housekeepers at Swallow


    Garden, but why didn’t I hear youining about being inconvenienced when you previously lived


    there?


    “The housekeepers at Swallow Garden don’t go to the second floor,” Armand said with an impassive


    countenance. “But this condominium of yours is single-story. I can’t stand my personal space having a


    housekeeper walking here and there.”


    Despite his words, Genevieve recalled the rainy afternoon that day and what they both had done in the


    living room.


    Even her ears began to blush.


    Immediately, Genevieve wheeled around and headed toward the kitchen ind, fearing the man might


    catch sight of her reddened cheeks.


    Before she went out earlier, she had informed Maria that she would bete for dinner. Perhaps it was


    because of that, there was nothing but a pot of soup on the kitchen ind.


    Genevieve typed a sentence to show Armand: There’s only a pot of soup. Should I… order food


    delivery?


    “Don’t we have any ingredients? You can cook up anything.” Armand pulled out his tie and unbuttoned


    his cor to put himself at ease. Pondering for a moment, he added, “But don’t add bells and whistles in


    it.”


    Not only did Armand not seem to mind, but he even wanted to taste her cooking. Realizing that,


    Genevieve hid her face behind the phone and secretly grinned.


    She then walked to the kitchen ind with a spring in her step.

    Genevieve tried to make a tomato omelet and stir-fried meat with potato. She was not experienced in


    slicing vegetables, thus spending a whole half an hour just slicing up the potato.


    When she finally served those two dishes and Maria’s soup on the dining table, it was already half past


    nine at night.


    Genevieve then served a te of pasta for Armand. She even showed him a text: I’ve already tried out


    these two dishes before serving them. They’re not bad, you know!


    Casting a nce at her, Armand shed a half-smile. “So, you mean, thest time you cooked, I was a


    Genevieve smiled awkwardly and put away her phone. She had no intention to continue their chit-chat.


    It was probably that Genevieve was genuinely good at preparing those two dishes, for not only did


    Armand clean the te, but he even helped her finish up her leftovers.


    After dinner, Genevieve threw all the dishes into the dishwasher and went to the living room.


    Sitting with her legs crossed on the silk carpet in the center of the living room, she used a tool to pluck


    out all the strings on the violin. Then, she reced them with the new ones that she had bought herself


    earlier that day.


    Soon after, Armand also came to the living room in a fresh set of casual clothes, bringing a ss of


    water with him. He then slumped onto the genuine leather couch beside her.


    Watching Genevieve skillfully recing the strings on the violin, hemented, “You can buy a brand


    new violin at the musical instrument store if you want one. Or, you can give Steven a call and have him


    get you one. Why must you insist on getting this violin back from Cooper?”


    Because the practice tune that you heard me ying back then came from this very violin. Genevieve


    wanted to tell him that, but of course, she did not.


    She had Armand’s unlimited spending limit card in her hands, so she could easily purchase the best


    violin in the world. Still, that was his money.


    This violin, however, was rightfully hers.


    Even if she had gotten it back from Cooper’s possession, it was bought with the money she got from


    selling off her own jewelry.


    Genevieve secretlyughed as she handed the phone over to let Armand read what was on her mind:


    This is a birthday present from my dad, so I definitely had to get it back.


    “Really?” Armand arched a brow.


    Genevieve had simply tied her hair up in a ponytail when they went out earlier, and she had been busy


    cooking up a storm after they got back. She did not even realize that her hair tie had be rather


    ck, causing strands of hair to dangle near her cheek.


    Putting down the ss, Armand turned his body sideways and removed Genevieve’s hair tie before


    tying her hair up properly into a ponytail all over again.
