Chapter 323 Her Car Was Washed Away
The next morning, Genevieve was jolted awake by the rapid knocking on her door.
After putting on her night robe frantically, she looked out the peephole and saw Steven standing there. When she opened the door, she quickly noticed the sullen expression on his face.
“Steven, what happened?”
“The mine in Feston has collapsed and buried ten people,” Steven reported grimly.
“I have sent men there, and so has the Feston emergency services. Nevertheless, the news has spread so quickly that the local government is now aware of it.”
With ten men buried underneath the collapsed mine, it was a total disaster.
“Send some men to reassure the government and suppress the news from spreading any further.” Out of nowhere, Armand was standing by Genevieve’s side as he barked out detailed instructions. “Also, contact a few members of the press that we trust to visit the scene together with us.”
Genevieve turned to Armand. “If you go, wouldn’t the press find out about your blindness? Let me do it instead.”
“No.”
Having been through a similar situation, Armand was cognizant of how hysterical the media and victims’ families could be.
“In that case, let’s go together. We can discuss what to say to the press and the affected families. I’ll face them while you wait for me in the hotel. Does that work?” Genevieve suggested a compromise.
After getting changed at once, Armand and she hurriedly left the hotel, leaving Johanna to tie up loose ends.
When Genevieve asked Steven for the time of their flight, Armand, who was sitting beside her, replied, “I flew here on a private jet that’s currently parked at the airport. If it wasn’t because I couldn’t see, I would’ve flown it back myself.”
After being stunned for a fleeting moment, Genevieve remembered that she had flown on a private jet together with Armand when she returned to Jadeborough from Springwyn.
She was just surprised to learn that he knew how to pilot one.
Upon arriving at the airport, the plane crew that Steven arranged for was already waiting. Right after take-off, they discussed their strategy over the breakfast served by the flight attendant.
