My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand) novel Chapter 565

“You're single. What are you going there for?” asked Cooper, without lifting his head.

“I've got a date.”

Upon hearing that, Cooper lifted his head and eyed Bertilla. “You should be meeting someone at this age. Okay, then. You may leave.”

Bertilla hummed in response. Before exiting the office, he said casually, “Ms. Rachford was the one who introduced me to that girl. She's really pretty. I think she's Mr. Faulkner's cousin.”

Hearing that, Cooper narrowed his eyes and queried, “You mean Jane Faulkner?”

“Yes.”

When Bertilla left the room, Cooper suddenly felt uneasy. Hence, he picked up his phone and dialed Genevieve's number. “Genev, why did you introduce Jane to Bertilla?”

“Why not? Bertilla's single anyway.”

Cooper massaged his knitted brows. “Jane's heart is unwell. How would Bertilla—”

Smiling, Genevieve interrupted, “I've told Bertilla about this already. He says he doesn't mind it. Coop, don't make him stay in the office today, okay? It's the Sky Lantern Festival. What if they end up together by releasing a lantern? Wouldn't that be amazing?”

Amazing, my foot!

Cooper hung up, suppressing his frustration.

After contemplating for some time, he picked up the coat from the stand and marched out of his office.

Bertilla was leaving at the same time. When he saw Cooper walking over, the former surmised Genevieve's predictions were right. Despite that, he still approached Cooper and asked casually, “Mr. Sutton, are you leaving for the club so soon?”

“You're going on my behalf. I'm going to Primrose River.” Cooper put on his coat with a stern expression.

Bertilla was stunned. “But I—”

Cooper cut in impatiently, “Genev invited me. It wasn't easy inviting Mr. Shepherd to Jadeborough. I can't stand him up, so you'll deliver the gift on my behalf. Your task tonight will be counted as overtime. You'll get four days of leave in replacement.”

“Okay.” Wow. I get a short vacation by just delivering something. This is such a great deal!

Bertilla was so elated that he almost burst out laughing. I wonder if Mr. Sutton will get mad once he finds out the truth.

Upon arriving at the underground parking lot, Cooper handed Bertilla the gift and asked, “Do you have Jane's number?”

“No,” Bertilla admitted. “Ms. Rachford only sent me Ms. Jane's picture.”
