My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand) novel Chapter 708

Chapter 708 He had Something To Tell Genev

Before he left, Jack seemed to have sensed something. When he titled his head, he coincidentally met Armand's gaze.

Narrowing his eyes, the former evoked a smirk of contempt.

Armand kept his cool and calmly watched while the pair departed from the banquet hall. Seconds after they had stepped out, the champagne glass shattered inside his grasp.

Half the glass of champagne was spilled onto his shirt and dress pants. In addition, his fingers were badly cut by the broken shards as well.

Cooper, standing close by, saw the waiter lead the man to the lounge before the former went to fetch some towels and antiseptic ointment. He then casually followed over and sat himself down on a corner couch.

“I've just realized that Jack hates you more than he does me.”

Had it been him who was taunted by Jack like that just now, he reckoned that his displeasure might have become palpable on his own face.

It would be much unlike Armand, who was nonetheless able to see them off with a straight face.

Using a warm towel to wipe the blood off his own fingers, Armand was in a dour mood. “Before I arrived at the hotel, I received a call from Dr. Zogby. He told me that Jermaine has died from acute kidney failure.”

In spite of having been saved by Armand's men, Jermaine had sustained two critical injuries that left him in a coma for more than a month. He looked to be in better shape after he regained consciousness the past few days. Yet, his kidneys suddenly gave out.

Cooper sighed upon receiving that piece of ill news. “After expending all that time and effort, I almost thought that we had managed to save him. He called up Genev that day, so I think he might have had something he wanted to say to her.”

Genevieve told him that Jermaine seemed to be quite anxious toward the end. He appeared to have wanted to tell her something, but ultimately, failed to do so in time.

Remembering something asudden, Armand paused with his application of the antiseptic. “Jermaine had asked Dr. Zogby to pass along a message prior to his passing. He wanted you to take Genev to see his mother.”

“His foster mother, Renee Zeigler?” asked an astonished Cooper. “Why?”
