Chapter 1244


    Chapter 1244 Kiss Me


    Half an hourter, with the invited guests as witnesses, Yuvan and Eurydice exchanged wedding rings


    andpleted the matrimonial ceremony.


    Reba sauntered up to Armand, beaming as she said, “Hey, there''s someone who wants to see you.”


    Armand did not think too much of this and simply let Reba lead the way.


    They walked out of the little garden where the wedding was held and followed the cobblestone path


    that led up to the hotel. There, Armand saw a woman standing in front of the fountain at the main


    entrance.


    The woman wore a pale pink velvet dress, and her dark, wavy hair was pulled into an elegant updo to


    reveal her delicate nape.


    She might be standing with her back to him, but Armand recognized her silhouette immediately, and his


    eyes went wide the moment realization dawned upon him.


    Could it be?


    It was only after he reached the end of the cobblestone path that he realized Reba had quietly


    disappeared.


    Slowly, Armand made his way over to the fountain, then came to a halt when he was a few feet away


    from the woman.


    “Why did you stop?” Genevieve asked,ughing.


    Without waiting for his answer, she quickly turned around, only to see him staring at her with those


    obsidian, depthless eyes of his.

    He looked so stunned that it was almostical.


    Genevieve tilted her head to one side. “Aren''t you going to give your darling wife a hug?”


    As she said this, she spread her arms wide.


    It took a few seconds for Armand to snap out of his daze, and only then did he hurry up to Genevieve.


    He bent down and pulled her into a gentle embrace, burying his head in her neck.


    He could not be sure if she was really there until he felt her warmth in his arms. Now that he knew he


    was not dreaming, his breathing grew calm and steady.


    Genevieve''s arms were wrapped around his waist. Nuzzling his chest lovingly, she pointed out with


    good humor, “I know you''ve missed me, but I didn''t think you''d be so shocked that you wouldn''t be able


    to string together a full sentence.”


    “You lied to me,” Armand muttered.


    He had been checking up on her, demanding that the nurses at the hospital send him footage so that


    he could monitor her from afar. Armand had believed that Genevieve was still unconscious, and he


    could not help wanting to tie up all the loose ends here so that he could rush back to her side.


    Little did he know that she had been awake for a while now and that she would secretly return to


    surprise him.


    Genevieve patted his back soothingly, saying, “I did not lie to you. I just really missed you, that''s all,


    and I thought it''d be nice toe here and surprise you.”


    She paused, then asked a secondter, “What, do you not like this surprise at all? You can''t seriously


    be unhappy about this when I literally took an eighteen-hour flight and rushed all the way here to see


    you!”


    Armandughed. “How am I supposed to get a word in when you''re doing all the talking?”


    “Then don''t say anything and just kiss me already,” she said coquettishly.


    Armand thought he might melt at the sight of Genevieve''s vibrant and endearing smile. He cupped her


    cheeks, dipped his head, and kissed her on the lips.


    He kissed her with a sense of urgency, as if desperate to let her know how much he had missed her.


    The breeze cooled the skin on the back of his neck, and he suddenly remembered something. Quickly


    shrugging off his zer, he draped it over Genevieve. “Aren''t you freezing in that dress?”


    “Just a little,” she admitted sheepishly. “I thought I''d let you see how pretty I look in this dress before


    you covered me up with your zer.”


    He gazed at her indulgently. “When did you be such a chatterbox?”


    “Oh, are weining now?” She frowned and said in mock anger, “I''ll just keep my mouth shut from


    now on, then.”


    “That wasn''t what I meant.”


    “Yes, it is.” She snorted. “If you already think I''m a chatterbox now, then what''s keeping you from


    thinking I''m an ugly hag the next day? It''s only a matter of time before you get sick of me and file for a


    divorce so you can have a shiny new wife. That''s your n, isn''t it?”


    The poor man was forced to surrender. “I''m sorry. Of course, you aren''t a chatterbox, Darling. If


    anything, you''re a sparkling conversationalist!”


    Sheughed and gave him a kiss on the cheek.


    The both of them were still tangled up in each other''s arms and basking in the happiness of their


    reunion when suddenly, an angry voice cut through the air. “What the hell do you think you''re doing,


    Armand?”


    When Reba had gone to pull Armand away from the wedding crowd earlier, Cooper had been


    standing right next to him. He thought Reba''s grin had been suspicious, so he waited until they left


    the garden before he followed them.


    Thest thing Cooper expected to find was Armand canoodling with some random woman out there in


    the open.
