My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand) novel Chapter 400

When they arrived at a large mall in the city center, Genevieve got the driver to wait outside as she went shopping one floor after another with Jane.

Jane began to bare her soul when she was certain that there was no one else around. “To be honest, I don't want to marry Xavier at all. But the children of the Faulkner family don't have the luxury of choice in marriage.”

Genevieve couldn't resist asking, “Why does your father still want to marry you off to him considering the Wood family's dire circumstances?”

From the few interactions she had with Peter, Genevieve was cognizant of how important power and status were to him. She was surprised that Peter would approve of Xavier although the Wood family was bankrupt.

“I didn't meet Mando today just for lunch...” Jane held her chest when she was interrupted by a cough while speaking.

Genevieve stopped shopping as she helped Jane to a chair.

When the latter opened her bag, Genevieve saw that it was filled with many bottles of medication.

Jane took one of them out and popped two tablets into her mouth.

Once her heart felt better, she continued softly, “Two days ago, I overheard Xavier speaking to someone from an investment firm on the phone. The party wanted to invest two billion to revive the project at Willowbank. Also, they were willing to lend Xavier a billion to clear his debts.”

Genevieve was shocked, for she had assumed the project had bankrupted the Wood family without any chance of revival. She did not expect that someone was willing to help him by throwing money into a bottomless pit.

Who in the world has such financial bandwidth to invest billions into helping the Wood family?

Genevieve inquired deeper, “Does that investment firm have a close relationship with the Wood family?”

Jane shook her head. “I'm not sure. I even heard Xavier asking whoever it was to get Marilyn out of prison.”

“He must be dreaming.” Genevieve's eyes darkened.
