My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand) novel Chapter 220

Cooper adjusted his spectacles as a small smile curved his lips. “All right. I won’t let you down.”

I won’t let Samantha off the hook, either.

That woman had been consumed with hatred just because Cooper’s father had left her. It had spurred her to kill Cooper’s entire family in a fire and manipulate Cooper like a pawn over the past twenty or so years.

If not for Samantha’s revenge, his and Genevieve’s relationship would not have ended in ruin.

Genevieve passed Cooper an apple piece. He popped it into his mouth and relished its impossibly sweet taste. He asked, “When will you divorce Armand, Genev? Even if he doesn’t involve the police in his grandmother’s sudden death, he may decide to settle the score with you in private. Maybe I should get you a lawyer and—”

“I’m not divorcing him,” she cut him off.

Cooper was stunned by her reply. He wondered if he had misheard her. “Why aren’t you divorcing him? Wait? D-Do you still love him?”

Genevieve merely smiled instead of gratifying him with a verbal response.

Then, she picked up her phone on the table. Her fingers flew across the screen as she said to her ex-husband, “Marilyn has a violin named ‘Night Breeze.’ Please get it back for me. If she refuses, show her this video I’m sending to you.”

Cooper unlocked his phone and watched the video.

In it, Genevieve looked straight at the camera and recounted an incident.

Right before the video ended, Genevieve raised three fingers toward the sky and declared, “If a fourth person learns about this, I deserve to perish immediately and suffer for all eternity in hell with no chance for repentance.”

Cooper was dumbfounded after watching the video. His shock lingered on his expression as he stared at Genevieve and muttered, “So fourteen years ago, you and Armand…”

He trailed off before asking, “Did Armand mistake you for Marilyn?”

“That’s not important anymore.” Genevieve ate the apple pieces leisurely, seemingly at peace with the past incident. “Show Marilyn the video. I’m sure she’ll hand over the violin.”

Cooper murmured an acknowledgment before keeping his phone. “I’ll ask to meet her tomorrow. Are you getting discharged today? I see you’ve packed your luggage.”

“Yes. I informed Steven of my decision yesterday.”
