Chapter 242


    Cooper then asked his assistant Christopher to buy him lunch before telling the other colleagues with a


    smile, “Sorry, but I’d like to have a private conversation with Genev here.”


    His handsome appearance and sses made him look like a gentleman despite his evil deeds.


    He looked so attractive that he even charmed one of her colleagues with his smile.


    They nodded and quickly moved over to another table but kept their gaze fixated on the two as they


    gossiped among each other.


    “I have a feeling that Cooper didn’t actuallye here to discuss business. I think he’s here to see


    Genevieve!”


    “The way he looked at her was so kind and gentle! Do you think they’re getting remarried soon?”


    “Wait, who is Genevieve’s new husband? Could it be that she actually remarried Cooper and is simply


    keeping it a secret?”


    “That does sound possible…”


    As Genevieve’s colleagues continued to gossip about them, Cooper pulled up a chair and sat down in


    front of Genevieve.


    “Armand has an uncle named Peter Faulkner. His men have caught Erica and found lots of ssified


    documents belonging to Specter Corporation. He even has pictures of me and Erica,” he said softly.


    “What kind of documents? Would it cause damage to thepany?” Genevieve asked.


    “I got worried about Erica making copies of thepany’s ssified documents when I couldn’t find


    her back then, so I had my men handle the situation as soon as possible. Fortunately, she didn’t cause


    too much damage. After that, Peter sent me some of the pictures and asked me to meet him in Xedells.


    Said he wanted to discuss business with me,” Cooper replied.


    “ording to the financial news, someone from the Faulkner family has bought shares in Specter


    Corporation,” Genevieve said as she recalled asking Armand in Springwyn if he had bought those

    shares.


    Armand imed that it wasn’t him who did it.


    Cooper nodded. “It was Peter who purchased those shares. He now holds six percent of Specter


    Corporation’s shares, making him one of thepany’s shareholders.”


    Their conversation was interrupted when Christopher came over with his lunch. He then ced the


    food down on the table and handed them two sses of iced lemon tea.


    Cooper put a straw in one of the sses and ced it next to Genevieve as he continued, “I was


    wondering why Peter would take an interest in Specter Corporation when there were tons of other


    because he knew about you marrying Armand.”


    Being a fairly smart woman, Genevieve easily figured out what he was implying. “So, he’s nning on


    using you to go after Armand?”


    “Correct. In order to consolidate the Faulkner family, Armand’s father married a third wife after


    bing the head of the family. As you know, Cesarter died in a ne crash. Since the higher-ups


    in Faulkner Group were on Peter’s side, everyone assumed he should take over thepany.


    However, Old Mrs. Faulkner said Peter’s old-fashioned management methods simply weren’t suitable


    for Faulkner Group. She believed that thepany needed innovation, so she ignored their objections


    and put Armand in charge instead. With the exception of Samantha, Armand removed all of Peter’s


    supporters from the board of shareholders after inheriting thepany,” Cooper replied while


    munching on his food.


    Genevieve had done some digging on the Faulkner family in order to better understand them, but the


    information she managed to find was quite limited.


    As such, she gasped in shock when she heard what Cooper said.


    Peter had always hated Armand for taking over thepany, so thetter mercilessly removing the


    former’s supporters only fueled his hatred even further.


    Instead of asking Cooper what Peter had told him and how he would go against Armand, Genevieve


    simply sipped on her iced lemon tea as she asked, “What about that thing I had you look into? Did you


    manage to find any information?”


    “I’ve already sent it to you on WhatsApp,” Cooper replied.


    Genevieve instantly put her fork down and checked the message on her phone.


    Noticing the tiny chunks of carrot in her food, Cooper picked them out and ate them on the spot.


    The surrounding employees of Central Group had been eyeing them the whole time, so they were


    shocked when they saw what happened.


    Timothy happened to be buying lunch in the cafeteria at the time, so he caught sight of Cooper eating


    Genevieve’s food.


    Huh… How interesting…


    Timothy secretly recorded a short clip of it before leaving with his food.
