My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand) novel Chapter 589

Undeterred by Coco's refusal, Sylvie whispered, “Think carefully, Coco. My granddad is Old Mr. Zeigler. Even if Genevieve traces the theft to me, all I need to do is apologize. She can't do anything to me. You, on the other hand, are different. Granddad only allows me to work in the entertainment industry because he loves me. That doesn't mean he approves of any grandchildren-in-law running in these circles. After all, the Zeiglers have a military legacy.”

Sylvie's tone was gentle, yet it did little to mask the threat in her words. “Once I say a few words to Granddad, you can kiss your dream of marrying into the Zeigler family goodbye.”

Coco gritted her teeth in anger and glared at Sylvie.

The final nail in the coffin was when Sylvie tidied Coco's hair and added, “You're out of options, Coco. If you refuse to help me, you can kiss your entertainment career goodbye too; I swear to that.”

Alas, to preserve her dreams of marrying into the Zeigler family and her entertainment career, Coco relented. “You better remember your promise!”

A relieved smile appeared on Sylvie's face. “Of course.”

Meanwhile, Genevieve's investigation of the servers had brought her to a waitress standing at the head of the second row. She caught a whiff of a familiar scent from the waitress' hands.

“It's you,” Genevieve declared confidently.

The waitress returned Genevieve's gaze. Panic flitted through her gaze before she decided to play dumb. “Miss, I've never met your friend before. Why would I steal her medication?”

Genevieve explained, “My friend carries a traditional medicine pouch in her purse, along with her frequently consumed medication. The stolen bottle would surely have the smell of that traditional medicine.”

Only then did Charlotte and the rest realize why Genevieve insisted on sniffing the servers' hands.

The waitress lowered her head in resignation.

However, Genevieve had no plans to blame the waitress. Instead, she asked gently, “I know you're just a server on this cruise ship, and you have no hatred toward my friend. As long as you tell me who paid you off to do this, I promise Ms. Benson won't reprimand you. In fact, I'll give you a reward myself.”
