My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand) novel Chapter 238

Not only did Armand lend Steven a helping hand in the man’s hour of need, but he also taught Steven a great many things.

If it were not for Armand, Steven would have stopped pursuing his studies in elementary school. Fortunately, he ended up graduating with a doctorate and got promoted from being a mere driver to the head of the secretarial department in Central Group. From then on, he no longer needed to worry about not having enough money.

Because of that, Steven was determined to repay the kindness.

He picked Patrick up from the trash and nurtured the latter into a fine young man. Even though he knew Patrick was incredibly capable and would do well anywhere, Steven still kept him by his side so that they could help Armand.

Initially, Steven planned on letting Patrick have his freedom after two more years. The latter could then do whatever he wanted to and marry whoever he liked.

However, he never expected that Patrick would fall for Genevieve.

Since Steven never told Genevieve about his past, she thought he was loyal to Armand because the two men grew up together. She did not expect Steven to have such a terrible childhood.

If it were not for Armand’s act of kindness, Steven probably would not have had the means to help Patrick.

Genevieve’s eyes immediately teared up after listening to Steven’s story, but she was unsure what to say.

Hence, Genevieve simply watched in silence as Steven positioned the urn under the guidance of a staff member. Then, the man walked over to Genevieve’s side, and together, they bowed their heads respectfully at the tombstone.

Genevieve waited until Steven placed his bouquet before setting her white daisies and the two boxes of cream puffs before the tombstone.

When the woman looked at Patrick’s photo, her eyes could not help but grow wet once again.

Genevieve had thought her grandmother would be the last loved one she had to part with, but she was wrong.

“Thank you, Patrick,” uttered Genevieve under her breath.

When the funeral was over, Genevieve and Steven left the cemetery and walked to the parking lot.

Taking another small urn out of his car, Steven gave it to Genevieve. “This is the other half of Patrick’s ashes; I’m handing it to you now. I know Patrick was good at slipping under the radar. Back then, I wanted to let you two escape, but…”

In response, Genevieve smiled bitterly. “If Marilyn’s people hadn’t recognized the ring, we would’ve gotten away. I ruined Patrick’s plan.” I should’ve tried a few more jewelry stores to see if they could help me get the ring off.
