My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand) novel Chapter 570

Sylvie ran up to Herbert and wrapped her arms around his as she said, “Hi, Granddad! The doctor said you should go to bed early, remember?”

Initially, Herbert was going to yell at her, but her sudden display of affection and concern softened his heart up.

“I got a call from Gunther earlier. He told me you hired a truck driver to kill someone. Why would you do such a thing?” he asked while glaring at her.

The look in Sylvie's eyes turned gloomy when she realized someone had ratted her out.

Angered by her response, Herbert shouted, “I'm a soldier, not a gangster! Do you know how much trouble you could bring your three uncles by doing so? I've warned you last time, Sylvie! You promised you wouldn't do it again, so why did you go against your word?”

I had thought of teaching Armand a lesson after seeing Sylvie cry because of him, but I didn't expect her to go this far! She contacted those people using my name and attacked Central Group with all sorts of scandals. Not only did she destroy the entire organization, but she also got Armand killed in the process. My entire life has been spent serving my country. I have never abused my power to do anything immoral, nor have I allowed my son to collude with businessmen. My wife died of depression after we lost our second daughter, so I've been showering Sylvie with as much love and affection as possible. I even went as far as helping those businessmen out so Sylvie wouldn't be bullied in the entertainment industry! I can't believe she would end up doing something as cruel as killing people through hired guns!

Realizing how angry Herbert was, Sylvie patted him on the back as she said, “I'm sorry, Granddad. Please don't be mad at me. It's bad for your health to get angry like this. I didn't want to do this, but he forced my hand! You had someone take care of those photographs of mine a while back, remember? Someone took pictures and videos of me after setting me up. That man is one of the culprits responsible for it. He kept using the videos to blackmail me for money. I've paid him multiple times, but he just keeps asking for more. He even wanted me to...”

She bit down on her lip as she struggled to continue, “I couldn't stand him blackmailing me like this, and I didn't want that footage to get released as it would bring you and my uncles great shame, so I hired someone to kill him.”
