Chapter 512 Resentment


    Holding Johanna''s hand, she kept murmuring till her voice had gone hoarse.


    Timothy stepped into the ward again at six in the evening, looking refreshed after a shave.


    He stated, “I''ll hire two caretakers to take care of Jojo. Please drop by to visit her whenever you are


    free. She''ll be fine.”


    “Okay!” Seeing that Timothy had pulled himself together, Genevieve heaved a sigh of relief and left with


    Jack.


    Knowing that Genevieve had not taken much during lunch, Jack took her to Golden Restaurant after

    they left the hospital. Upon arriving, he requested a private room.


    “I know you like to have meals here.” He handed her the menu.


    Genevieve only ordered two dishes at random as she did not have much appetite.


    “Jack, I can''t go back to Dartan with you at the moment. I need to wait for Jojo to regain her


    consciousness first.” She cut to the crap after the waiter left with their orders. Since Sylvie had the gut


    to strike at Johanna, she could not leave without first settling the score.


    Jack hummed approvingly. “It''s been years since I wasst back in Chanaea. I can grab the opportunity


    for a short break too.”


    After sounding Genevieve out and seeing how she treated Armand indifferently in the cafe earlier, he


    was convinced that the drug he injected into her body previously was working. Thus, there was nothing


    he needed to worry about. Not to mention, Genevieve had lost the bet.


    Jack apanied Genevieve back to Regality Gardens after dinner.


    Shortly after, his car pulled to a halt in the basement car park. Still seated in his car, he turned to look at


    Genevieve. “Genev, are you still not willing to let me go up?”


    After much hesitation, she pursed her lips. “Let''s go.”


    Undeniably, she had been rejecting him for quite some time. Even if she still refused to let him enter


    her residence, she would still have to talk herself into getting used to him by her side after she was


    back in Dartan.


    Even so, she could not fathom the inexplicit resentment amid the emptiness in her heart. Why am I still


    feeling so, although the man who loves me is right in front of me?


    The following morning, Amanda called Genevieve again.


    Initially, Genevieve felt down in the dumps because of what had befallen Johanna. The moment she


    heard her daughter''s mellifluous voice, however, her heart melted.


    She even switched it into a video call.


    The little girl''s dainty face came into sight at once. She gazed at Genevieve with a glint of mischief in


    her eyes. Undoubtedly, she was a pretty little girl bearing a resemnce to Genevieve.


    Sprawling out on the carpet and wiggling her two chubby legs, Amanda kept her eyes glued to her


    mother as the woman made some coffee in the kitchen. “Mommy, isn''t Daddy awake yet?”


    She loved chatting with Armand because he not only had an attractive voice but also sounded gentle.


    Even so, she dared not contact him for the past few days, assuming he was with her mother.


    Genevieve, who was pouring coffee at that moment, stiffened briefly before she cast her eyes down.


    With that, she exined gently, “Mandy, I can''t get along with your daddy. I''ll be marrying Mr. Valentine


    instead. I can assure you he''ll be a great father.”


    “Huh? Why can''t you get along with him?” Amanda asked quizzically, widening her eyes. Didn''t


    Mommy fly back to Dartan previously to prepare a birthday present for Daddy? She even took one of


    my drawings as she wanted to give it to him! How''s it possible that Daddy and Mommy suddenly can''t


    get along?


    Genevieve exined candidly, “Erm... I guess I''ve lost my feelings toward him. Mandy, our emotions


    areplicated and indescribable with words. There''s no point forcing ourselves to do something we


    don''t like. For instance, you don''t like to eat carrots, and I never force you on that either.”


    Hearing that, Amanda dropped her head gloomily, unable toprehend what was going on. Didn''t


    Mommy talk about Daddy blissfully when we had a phone conversation previously? How could things


    change so abruptly?


    Right that instant, Jack stepped into the kitchen in beige casual wear.


    “Morning.” He wrapped his arms around Genevieve from behind her and kissed her.


    When Jack realized Genevieve was having a video call with Amanda, the glint in his eyes turned softer.


    He greeted Amanda, “Mandy, have you taken your dinner properlytely?”


    Noticing Genevieve and Jack in casual wear, Amanda realized thetter had spent the night there. In


    an instant, her gloominess intensified.
