My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand) novel Chapter 519

“I found it when I was investigating Jack in Dartan.” Cooper explained, “However, all I had was a picture back then. I couldn't find out her name or who she was. That's why I never showed it to you until I went to Xedells to see Samantha. It was when I saw you asking her about the picture you were holding that I learned the woman was your mother.”

Tapping on the photo, Cooper continued, “I don't know her name, but I found the picture in a place that Jack had lived in before. When I confronted Genev about whether she married Jack for this woman's sake, she said that she would tell me about it one day.”

Cooper had always been known to be intelligent.

Just by connecting the dots, he could piece together what had happened.

Adjusting his spectacles, he informed Armand in a grave tone, “My guess is that you and Jack might be closely related. There's a possibility that you might even be... brothers.”

A tremble in his hand caused Armand to drop the cigarette he was holding. “Are you kidding me?”

Cooper snorted before sneering in reply. “Would you have imagined that I was Samantha Faulkner's son and that we would turn out to be cousins? Anything can be possible.”

After observing Armand for a few seconds, he added, “Upon closer inspection, you do resemble Jack.”

Armand's lips twitched at the words.

If someone had randomly told him that his father had an affair that resulted in a child, he wouldn't be surprised at all.

However, Cooper's theory had flooded him with inexplicable emotions.

At that moment, the phone he left on the table rang.

Putting it to his ear, he spoke to the caller for a few minutes before ending the call and informing Cooper, “It's from the prison. Marilyn is dead.”

Cooper asked, “How did she die?”

“Her gastrointestinal tract was bleeding. By the time she was sent to the infirmary at dawn, she was already done for.” Armand took another puff of his cigarette.

“Dying after only four years in prison? She sure got away easy.” Behind his spectacles, an icy glint flashed in Cooper's eyes. “Coincidentally, there's something I need to tell you.”
