Chapter 316


    "But I''m sharing a room with Johanna," replied Genevieve. She saw how ufortable Armand


    seemed, and she frowned, but she did not push him away.


    "Which floor are you and Steven staying on?" she asked.


    "Have Johanna get another room," demanded Armand in a coarse voice as Genevieve helped him into


    the elevator. "Darling, I drank for you tonight, so take care Of me, will you?"


    Annoyed, Genevieveined, "Dont make it sound as though I asked you toe here. Speaking


    of, why did you use the wheelchair yesterday when you can already walk?"


    "l can walk, but I Can only do that slowly," replied Armand. He poked her cheek a little andined,


    "It''s not like I can have them think that I''m a blind man in a wheelchair."


    Genevieve pped his finger away and pressed a button on the elevator.


    When Johanna heard the knock on the door, she went over to answer it barefooted, only to see


    Genevieve hugging a tall guy''s waist.


    It took her a while, and her bright eyes glowed a little beforeing to the conclusion. "Is that your


    husband?"


    "Yeah," answered Genevieve. She helped Armand to the couch before turning to look at Johanna. In


    an exasperated voice, she requested, "Jojo, can you go to the reception and ask for another room?"

    "Hey! Why does he get to stay with you?"ined Johanna. She pouted and was obviously


    unhappy with the new arrangement. "His leg is injured, so won''t it be morefortable for him to have


    a room all to himself?"


    Armand answered politely, "You''re asking why do I get to stay with her? Because I''m her husband, of


    course!"


    "So what?" challenged Johanna before she harrumphed. "You''re an adult, so why can''t you take care


    Of yourself?"


    "Well, I want my wife to take care of me."


    Genevieve watched as Armand, being the mighty man that he was, bickered with Johanna. It looked as


    though things would soon escte into a heated argument when Genevieve quickly pulled Johanna to


    the side and coaxed her endlessly.


    Only then did Johanna reluctantly pack her things to leave. Genevieve, on the other hand, called the


    receptionist to ask for some sobering pills.


    It didn''t take long before the pills were delivered.


    Genevieve took two pills out of the bottle and pulled Armand''s arm to put the pills in his hand.


    He reacted by pulling her into his arms and making her sit on hisp. He then grabbed her hand and


    put his lips on her palm to take the pills.


    After that, he grabbed her finger and made her trace his lips. "Darling, did you have fun earller?"


    Genevieve pursed her lips. "Yeah, I did."


    If Armand hadni shown up in time, she would have been the one who downed the drink. Xavier would


    likely continue messing with her after that.


    Armand''s appearance changed everything. In a way, Genevieve had avenged Johanna the second her


    dart dug into Xavier''s wrist.


    Armand breathed into her fingers, prompting them to tremble. She reacted by tugging as hard as she


    could to retract her hand.


    Annoyed, sheined, "Mando, are you a hooligan or something? Let go of me."


    "You''re my wife, so it''s not like it''s illegal for me to kiss you," refuted Armand as he locked his arms on


    her back to pull her closer to him. His fingers traced her cheek after that.


    Armand squinted his eyes to see her face, but all he got was a blurry outline.


    "l feel like it''s been ages since Ist saw you," said Armand. He leaned closer to the point where his


    nose was practically touching hers when he muttered, "l think it''s been almost two months..."


    Genevieve was rather worried about that as well.


    After all, the doctor said that Armand should regain his sight in a month or so after resting at home. Yet,


    he still couldn''t see even though it had been almost two months.


    "Once we''re back home, I''ll have Dr. Jensen find you a better doctor to examine your eyes," replied


    Genevieve as she put some distance between them and got up from hisp.


    She added, "You just took your sobering pills, so let me help you lie down."


    Armand murmured a reply and let Genevieve lead him to the side of the bed.


    When she let go of him, however, he pulled her onto the bed and rested his forehead on hers.


    "Darling, stay with me for a while."


    "Go to sleep on your own," replied Genevieve in a hostile tone. She realized then and there that


    Armand had be more attached to her.


    Back then, he would still control himself even though he would kiss and hold her.


    But now...


    "l want you to stay with me. Just for a little while. You can leave after I fall asleep, okay?" requested


    Armand in a deep voice as he rested his arm on her waist and hugged her.


    Genevieve didn''t reply because she knew there was no point in


    arguing with the man. There was no way he would let go, anyway.


    As such, she decided to wait until he fell asleep, then leave.


    However, when she rested her head on his broad shoulders and inhaled his unique, pleasant scent, a


    wave of drowsiness crashed into her.


    She hugged him back and snuggled up to him.


    Genevieve never knew why but she could always rx in his arm when she was tired, and she could


    always sleep well.


    His chest was like afortable pillow and worked better than sleeping pills.
