My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand) novel Chapter 525

Jack's gaze was icy, while the tone of his voice was brutal. “I don't want to know how pitiful he was. All I know is that he's a coward, proven by how he left my mom. No matter what his circumstances were, what he did was wrong!”

Armand removed the fragments of paper from his clothes and said in a low voice, “My father has always stood by Ms. Valentine, but he is still a member of the Faulkner family and the son that my grandpa put all his hopes on.

“Even though Father wanted to elope with Ms. Valentine, they could not escape. Even if they managed to get out of Xedells, they wouldn't have successfully left Chanaea.

“If Grandpa caught them, he would use Ms. Valentine's life to threaten Father. Perhaps he would even take her life to compel my father's obedience.”

Armand had grown up in the Faulkner family, and he knew everything about Ayden's brutal methods.

Ayden was obsessed with controlling his clan and his company. No one and nothing could get in his way. For the sake of his business, any of his children could be used as a bargaining chip.

There was not a single person who would not want to be with the love of their life.

Unfortunately, as children born in such a powerful clan, their fates were not of their own choosing.

When Armand was a child, he had once seen his outwardly stern, calm, and commanding father sit in his study while weeping bitterly with his hands covering his face.

The thirty-year-old adult male was crying like a child.

When his father noticed that he was watching, the man placed him on his lap and told him gently, “Armand, I hope that one day you will meet a girl, love her sincerely, and be willing to give up everything for her. Love is not something that should be sacrificed for profit but rather something beautiful worth pursuing.”

As a child, what the older man said had not meant much to him, but now he understood that his father had wished the same thing would not happen to him.

Hearing that, Jack sneered, “You are Cesar's son. Of course you are on his side.”
