Armand's indirect support for Sylvie had helped distract people from her recent negative media coverage.
Johanna, who had seen the news early in the morning, went to see Genevieve in her office the moment she arrived. “What on earth is Mr. Faulkner doing? You've only just taught Sylvie a lesson a few days ago, and now the two of them are on the Trending page! Is he trying to whitewash her or something?”
Noticing no response from Genevieve, Johanna tapped on her desk and asked, “Hey! Did you hear what I just said?”
“Yes, I did. I may have taught Sylvie a lesson, but she is still working for Genevieve Orsi. If anything, I should be thanking Mr. Faulkner for saving my company the money to protect Sylvie's image,” Genevieve replied while keeping her eyes on the document in her hands.
Johanna stared at her in disbelief. “Your husband spent the night at a hotel with another woman! The fact that Mr. Faulkner hasn't addressed the rumor means it's most likely true! Shouldn't you be mad at him?”
Genevieve placed her pen down and looked up at Johanna. “Why would I be mad? He has the right to marry any woman he likes. I'll lose the bet if I go confront him about it.”
Her bet with Jack was whether Armand still loved her after so many years.
However, she wasn't allowed to do anything except wait for Armand to confess his love for her.
Johanna let out a sigh after a brief pause and said, “You shouldn't have come back, Genev. Life was a lot better for you in Dartan.”
“I was the one who made this decision. Regretting won't do me any good.” Genevieve took a sip of her coffee. “My private investigator gave me a call last night. I had him investigate what happened to Charice, and he told me that she might still be alive.”
“What?” Johanna stared wide-eyed at her in shock.
“The private investigator has a friend in Holton Hospital who's really close with the guys managing the archives. His friend obtained Charice's death certificate and found out that her information on the certificate is different from the one on her medical records. I went to Baykeep a while back to visit the housekeeper who worked for Charice. She showed me lots of photos of her. I sent two of them to the private investigator. According to him, the person in the post-mortem photographs looked quite different,” Genevieve explained.
