    Chapter 925 Feel Honored


    Armand rubbed his temples and asked tersely, “Why did youe to Baykeep?”


    “I''m here to assist my uncle in his investigation regarding the contaminated beef incident.”


    Half of Baykeep''s poption was infected by the virus due to the problematic beef. During that one month,izens all over the globe had


    paid close attention to Baykeep''s situation.


    Forlisle Medical invented a specific vine to address the endemic and stopped the spread of the virus, allowing Baykeep''s borders to be


    reopened. Baykeep''s government had also published a report and punished those involved in that incident.


    Despite those efforts, the ones who secretly orchestrated that tragedy were not only the officials from Baykeep but also included an external


    force. The purpose of Sally''s current visit was to investigate that external force.


    Sally sat on the chair Faith was tied to earlier, took out a box of mints, and tossed two pieces of peppermint candy into her mouth. “I did not


    expect to stumble upon Genevieve while I went shopping.”


    “Thank you,” Armand uttered hoarsely.


    If Sally did not happen to be at the restroom, Genevieve would have been killed.


    “Give me the name list if you''re genuinely grateful toward me. I know your men had already found out about the external force conniving


    with those Baykeep''s officials.”


    Armand switched on his phone without hesitation and sent her the information through WhatsApp.


    While she browsed through the list, Armand borated calmly, “The external influence colluding with Baykeep''s officials is the Carlo family,


    a famous mafia family from Lostaria. They possess businesses in Chanaea, but are negligent in managing their assets here. More than two


    months ago, members of the Carlo family frequented Baykeep.”


    The Carlo family was based in the far Epea, mainly dealing with shady businesses. Armand was baffled by their intention in helping those


    Baykeep officials overthrow the Zeigler family.


    The only hypothesis he coulde up with was that the Carlo family wanted to support a puppet under their control to ession, creating a


    path to transfer their properties to Baykeep.


    At that moment, Sally was reminded of something. Her eyes gleamed as if she had connected the dots in her mind. She kept her phone and


    leaped to her feet. “I will act as Genevieve''s bodyguard for this period.”


    Armand narrowed his eyes at Sally. “Are you telling me that you think my wife is in danger?”


    Sally questioned him, “Do you need to ask what I think? A few months ago, someone used my name to harm her on the cruise ship. Not long


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    ago, she was almost murdered in the parking lot, and today, Faith nearly took her life.”


    Sally found the circumstances to be highly amusing as she recounted those perilous events. She asked him, “Are youpeting against


    Genevieve to see which one of you could survive longer in danger?”


    Armand was stumped.


    Sally said, “There is a matter I need to investigate further. My uncle traveled abroad to convince me to take up this responsibility, but even he


    failed. Genevieve should feel honored to be protected by me.”


    Armand knew Sally had an ulterior motive behind her request to guard Genevieve''s safety.


    Still, he did not doubt Sally''s outstandingbat skills. Genevieve would be safe with Sally as her bodyguard, so he agreed to Sally''s request


    in the end.


    The sky had turned dark by the time Genevieve woke up.


    Armand returned to the ward after he was done conversing with Sally. When he noticed Genevieve had regained consciousness, he opened the


    food jar on the table and poured out a bowl of hot soup.


    He described how Zayne had used Faith to Genevieve while feeding her the soup.


    “Zayne is a time bomb if left in the country because he is stubbornly resentful. I''ve asked Uncle Cyrus to send him overseas today. Granddad


    will not be informed of this matter. Granddad called, and I told him you are feeling under the weather, so you need to be hospitalized today.”


    Genevieve merely grunted in response. She understood Armand was already being generous for sparing Zayne''s life.


    The following day, he handled her discharge procedures.


    After they returned to the Zeigler residence, Herbert held Genevieve''s hands and chatted with her concernedly. He wanted to visit her at the


    hospital the day before, but his personal physician came to perform a health check on him, so he could not leave the house.


    “I''m fine, Granddad. Mando overreacted and insisted I stay a night in the hospital.” Genevieve wrapped her arms around Herbert''s as they


    walked toward the living room.


    Herbert said sternly, “Fever is not a condition to be taken lightly. He was worried about you. I would have wanted you to be hospitalized as


    well.”


    Genevieve responded with a smile.
