My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand) novel Chapter 438

Genevieve strolled up to the man and scoffed, “Wow, Mr. Faulkner, you must really care a lot for your lover. She just got hospitalized, yet you've already put your work aside to visit her.”

“Like you said, she's my lover. Shouldn't I show her some care and concern?” Armand replied in a deep voice.

A scowl instantly crept into Genevieve's face. “Oh, yes! Of course, you should! It'd be even better if you brought her some supplements so her leg can heal faster!”

“Okay,” Armand answered with a gentle nod. “Thank you for your suggestion, Ms. Rachford.”

Genevieve was still holding back her anger when her phone started ringing. After seeing who the caller was, she broke into a smile and answered it while walking toward the elevator.

“Hello, who's that?” she piped up.

After a while, she added, “Of course, I've missed you! I miss you every second of every minute of every day. Sorry, darling. I've been so busy recently that I haven't had the time to call you.”

Genevieve's voice was so saccharine-sweet that it was as though she was trying to soothe the caller and wishing she could be with him.

It didn't take long for Armand to guess who the caller was, and his calm demeanor began to crack as he felt himself tensing up.

A few seconds later, however, he regained his composure and strode into Sylvie's ward.

“Mr. Faulkner!” Joyce greeted, utterly shocked that Armand would even show up at the hospital.

She poured him a glass of water immediately, clearly treating him better than she did Genevieve.

Armand merely waved it off and walked up to Sylvie's bedside. “Where did you hurt yourself?”

Before Sylvie could say anything, she felt Joyce lifting her pant leg to reveal the gnarly bruise.

“Take a look, Mr. Faulkner,” Joyce said, her voice full of pity. “Even when Sylvie was filming on set, she had never been injured this badly. The doctor said she won't be able to get out of bed for the time being...”

“In that case, please stay here during this time and take care of her,” Armand replied.

Joyce sighed. “I want to, but I'm afraid I can't. Ms. Rachford dropped by earlier and said she'd find a new manager for Sylvie. She also wants me to return to the office tomorrow so she can assign me new tasks. The thing is, Ms. Rachford lacks the experience to run a production company. She's adamant about Sylvie attending events and starring in the company's TV series...”

Armand said nothing as he listened intently, speaking up only when Joyce had finished grumbling.

I've long wanted to break my contract with the company, but the termination fee's way too high. I suppose I have Genevieve to thank for this stroke of luck! Once I leave the company, I shall strike out on my own. That way, I'll no longer be at the mercy of others!
