Chapter 977


    Chapter 977 You Can Never Go Far


    After reaching the first floor, Johanna gloomily instructed the housekeeper to prepare a cup of ck coffee for her before heading to the


    kitchen.


    As it was a long road down from the castle to the foot of the mountain—it would take half an hour''s drive—the kitchen had two huge


    refrigerators that the housekeepers would keep the food in every time they went grocery shopping.


    Johanna took out carrots, celery, and papayas and asked the housekeeper to make a sd for her.


    “I like sour foods, so please make me some pickled carrots, cucumbers, and lettuce.” Johanna then taught the housekeepers how to pickle the


    ingredients.


    She even asked them to add arge amount of garlic to each jar.


    Once the housekeeper was done making the vegetable sd, Johanna sat down and took her time polishing off the te. She also finished her


    cup of ck coffee.


    When she saw how sunny it was outside, she decided to head out for a stroll.


    Their master had told them that they did not need to follow Johanna everywhere anymore, and since the castle was far from the foot of the


    mountain, Johanna would not be able to go far even if she grew wings. Thus, the housekeepers did not tail her.


    Anne went up to the second floor where the study was and knocked on the study''s door. After entering, she reported to the man what Johanna


    had eaten and how Johanna had told the housekeepers to make pickled foods.


    A momentter, Anne lowered her head and added, “Mr. Zephyr, pickled foods and garlic are meant to... avoid pregnancies.”


    The women around Mr. Zephyr, including his fiancée, are trying everything to get pregnant with his child. In contrast, despite how nice Mr.


    Zephyr is to that woman, she avoids him all the time. Anne thought to herself.


    Zephyr let out a quiet chuckle, seemingly amused by Johanna''s actions.


    “Let her do as she pleases.” Zephyr then waved to dismiss Anne.


    After the door to the study closed, Zephyr''s subordinate on the other end of the line continued, “Timothy hasn''t found anything about


    Johanna''s disappearance, but Armand knows that the one at the cemetery is just your stand-in. Nevertheless, he currently doesn''t have the time


    to deal with us.”


    Zephyr lifted the cup of coffee from the table and sipped on it. “What''s going on?”


    “Genevieve is in a bad state,” his subordinate informed. “My informant has told me that Armand is bringing her to the military hospital every


    day, and she''s always in the psychiatrist''s room for several hours each time.”


    “Is finding out who her biological father is so shocking for her?” Zephyr raised a brow. “This sister of mine''s a little fragile.”


    “My apologies, Mr. Zephyr. I have yet to find out the reason behind this.”


    However, Zephyr was not interested to find out more about Genevieve''s matter. He then instructed, “Find more people to decode the string of


    numbers.”


    If those people could not decode it, he would have to return to find Genevieve.


    Zephyr never thought that Genevieve''s mother would be someone so important—that she was Baykeep''s Zeigler family''s missing second


    daughter.


    It was one thing for Genevieve to have a rtionship with Armand and another for her own mother toe from a powerful background. It


    would not be a beneficial situation for Zephyr.


    He once hired someone to swap Genevieve and Herbert''s DNA test results in hopes to keep Genevieve''s birth circumstances a secret—he was


    hoping that he would be able to knock Felix off his pedestal so that the Zeigler family would fall to ruins. Yet, his n failed.


    In a few years'' time, Armand would take over Robert''s position. Ethan''s death was linked to the Carlo family, and Sally still wanted to avenge


    Ethan.


    Even if he had power in Lostaria, it would still be tricky for him if Armand really wanted to go up against him.


    Therefore, Zephyr would refrain fromying a finger on Genevieve unless he had no other choices.


    After ending the call, Zephyr stayed in the room to continue dealing with thepany matters. A long whileter, a housekeeper knocked on


    the study''s door.


    “Mr. Zephyr, it''s time for dinner.”

    “Okay,” Zephyr said without lifting his head. He shut down theputer and left the study after he was done with the matters at hand.


    When Zephyr went downstairs, he scanned the area and found no traces of the woman.


    Knowing what Zephyr was looking for, Anne said, “Ms. Joule is in the kitchen. She wanted to make dinner herself and did not want the


    housekeepers'' help.”
