Chapter 713


    Chapter 713 That Is Your Former Husband


    With one being the former husband of her good friend, and the other her own friend, it felt a bit wrong in Genevieve''s esteem for them to


    behave so flirtatiously without a care in the world.


    Genevieve turned back to regard Johanna who was simply enjoying her pasta; thetter''s fine mood was seemingly unaffected by anyone else


    in the slightest.


    While drinking her water, Johanna noticed Genevieve looking at herself. ncing at the pair who were behaving immodestly across the way,


    she seemed to have caught up. “If you don''t want to look at them, shall we go and eat somewhere else?


    Genevieve was momentarily stumped. “That''s your ex-husband.”


    “It is you put it, ex-husband. So, it''s none of my business.” Johanna stuffed another mouthful of pasta into her own mouth. “Why should I care


    about him seeking someone new? He''s got a good eye this time, choosing a mega-rich and pretty little thing like her.”


    Genevieve did not know how to respond to seeing how at ease she was, as though she hadpletely severed whatever emotional ties she had


    with Timothy.


    Having known each other for so many years, Genevieve knew how deeply she had loved Timothy.


    For over five years, Johanna and Timothy walked side by side, experiencing both the good times and the bad. Both had matured exponentially


    since then and only managed to finallye together after undergoing so many trials and tribtions.


    That was why Genevieve would not believe that Johanna had already moved past that rtionship.


    Then, Charlotte approached Genevieve. “I think I may have some issues with my clothing, Genevieve. Do you minding with me to the


    restroom to help me sort this out?”


    “Sure.” A smiling Genevieve then stood up and left with Charlotte.


    Previously, Genevieve was only motivated by her own desire to prevent Charlotte from siding with Sylvie. After getting to know her better,


    she hade to genuinely want Charlotte as a friend.


    Wealthy, smart, and of good character, she was also well connected in many circles.


    After leaving the rooftop garden, Charlotte promptly exined to Genevieve, “I''ve only realized that Timothy is Johanna''s ex-husband after


    he told me so. To tell you the truth, I wouldn''t havee out for lunch with Timothy if not for my father''s insistence. With Mr. Jensen unwell,


    Timothy has been put in charge of Forlisle Group. My father was worried about Timothy being taken by another woman and thus kept urging


    me to call him and talk to him more often...”


    With that, Charlotte evoked a look of despair.


    Forlisle Group is practically a gold mine. If the Bensons and Jensens were to be linked through marital ties, Mr. Benson would be able to


    make inroads into the healthcare industry and expand his own business portfolio. Not just Mr. Benson, I bet that there are many other


    directors with daughters who have also set their sights on Timothy.


    In light of the perks involved, it got Genevieve smiling. “When I saw you and Timothy behaving lovey-dovey and all, I was for a moment


    puzzled as to why you would be interested in him.”


    Charlotte fancies men who possess the qualities of being dashing, doting, and docile in her boyfriends. Being simr to her in more ways than


    one, it would be mutual torment for Timothy and Charlotte to date each other.

    “Lovey-dovey my ass!” replied a furious and cussing Charlotte. “He purposely exploited me to try to make Johanna jealous and used my


    father to threaten me when I refused. Just eating the grilled mushroom he fed makes me want to puke! Had I not wanted something from him,


    I would have smashed the te on top of his head the second he tried!”


    Upon hearing Charlotte''sints, Genevieve could not contain her own amusement.


    As Timothy had notid his eyes on Johanna once since he stepped in, his nonchnce almost had Genevieve convinced that he did not care


    about her.


    To think that it was all an act.


    Back at the rooftop garden, Johanna was already done with her minced-meat pasta. Summoning the waiter over, she then proceeded to ce


    an order for an iced coffee.


    Much to her surprise, while she was fiddling with her phone, a cup of hot chocte was ced on her table instead.


    “I''ve asked for an iced coffee...” Thinking that the waiter might have made a mistake, Johanna looked up to address him, only to realize that it


    was Timothy who was standing beside her.


    Timothy pulled up the chair next to her and sat down. “It''d be better to drink something warm this time of the year.”
