Chapter 198


    Chapter 198 Revenge


    Genevieve stood still in shock. She did not expect Patrick to risk it all and head to Xedells to kill


    Marilyn’s father. Moreover, he did all of this just to stand up for her.


    What have I done in this lifetime to deserve this? Besides, what is it that prompted a man to go against


    his brother in order to protect me?


    Genevieve wanted to cry, and her eyes started to turn red. She held up her phone and thought of


    typing something.


    Yet, she did not know what to type. Instead, she pressed a finger on the screen, and a string of W’s


    appeared.


    Initially, Patrick wanted to wipe the tears away from the corners of Genevieve’s eyes. He moved his


    hands, but he never raised them. “You got hurt a few times because I didn’t protect you in the past. It’ll


    never happen again.”


    He paused, then continued, “Armand might continue to enable Marilyn’s behavior, but I won’t y nice


    if she dares to harm you. All right, Genev. It’s reallyte. Go to sleep. We’ll leave by ship tomorrow


    morning.”


    Genevieve nodded.


    She did not feel like sleeping after washing up, so she sat by her bed and typed on her phone.

    When you called me that night, my phone ran out of battery and died. Why was Cooper with you?


    When Cooper hit the police car and took her away that day, he kept apologizing to her in the car. His


    gaze was filled with immense regret and guilt, and this puzzled Genevieve.


    Cooper was utterly cold and merciless when he killed her parents and when he dealt with her.


    That day, however, she saw the pain and anguish in his expression.


    Patrick nced at her phone and said, “It’s because I told him the truth about the destruction of the


    Sutton family.”


    Genevieve was taken aback and stared at him in disbelief.


    Patrick turned on hisptop, ced it on Genevieve’sp, and exined, “Over twenty years ago,


    Samantha was in a rtionship with Cooper’s father, Zachary Sutton. The two were about to get


    married when Zachary backed out and dumped Samantha. As a result, she was devastated.”


    He added, “When Zachary got married, Samantha felt resentful. So, she ordered a few men to set fire


    to the Sutton family’s residence and burn all members of the family alive… You do know that Old Mrs.


    Faulkner loves Samantha very much. As soon as she learned of that incident, she discussed it with Old


    Mr. Faulkner. They dealt with the men whomitted arson for Samantha and covered up the entire


    incidentpletely.”


    As Patrick exined, Genevieve read the emails. She was horrified by their content.


    She still did not believe her father would kill the members of the Sutton family in order to benefit his


    business. However, her parents were killed by Cooper, and she could not find anybody else who knew


    the truth.


    Genevieve did not know where to begin in her investigation.


    Never in a million years did she imagine that it was Samantha who did all of this!


    Patrick looked at Genevieve and continued, “Samantha had no idea that Cooper survived and got


    adopted by your father. She hated the Sutton family and Zachary, so she hatched a n thatsted for


    twenty years. Cooper is her pawn, and she had him wrapped around her little finger.”


    Patrick went on, “Someone has been spying on Cooper ever since he was adopted by the Rachford


    family. Moreover, it was Samantha who made sure you got to know and befriended Erica when you


    went to university. She knows what Erica is like, and she concocted a n to make Erica obtain


    information about you and Cooper…”


    Although Patrick never witnessed what Samantha did, he sensed a chill running down his spine as he


    talked about her schemes.


    He could not believe that a woman could hold a grudge for so many years.


    “Previously, didn’t you ask me who ordered Queenie to hurt you?” Then, Patrick lifted his hands which


    were resting on his kneecaps. “It was Samantha. She probably knew your marriage to her nephew,


    Armand, was just for show. Thus, she wasn’t bothered by this and helped Queenie in secret.


    Nevertheless, Queenie turned out to be useless.”


    He added, “I guess Armand has already found out about this, but he won’t pursue it further. After all,


    Samantha is his aunt. She’s one of the two people in his life who supported him and allowed him to


    take control of the Faulkner family.”
