Chapter 522 Armand didn’t persist. After throwing the tightly shut door a glance, he followed the guards back into the elevator.
Upon reaching the first floor, he headed to the lounge in the lobby instead of leaving.
When his phone suddenly rang. I answered it anxiously but was disappointed to hear Steven’s voice instead of Genevieve’s.
Steven asked, “Mr. Faulkner, where are you? You’re ncceled at the office.”
* Just let it be. I don’give a damn anymore,” Armand replicd calmly before ending the call.
I need Geneviety, but toho can help me?
Anand opened the old metal box and took out a faded photograph. It was a wedding picture of a young couplc.
Facing the camera, both of their siniles were filled with joy, as if their bliss had been frozen in time.
When he arrived at the final photograph, he noticed that there was something written on the back. He recognized the handwriting to be the same as the one on the letter.
It read: I‘m a true believer in being down to earth and would see everything for its own nature. However, at the sight of you, I felt the sky crack and the waves raging in the ocean. Without saying a word, I, together with every living creature in this world, am instinctively drawn to you.
Thinking back to how strict his father was when he was a child, Armand was surprised that the latter was capable of writing such romantic prose to a woman.
As he flipped through the photographs repeatedly and digested the adoring words behind them, the night passed quickly.
The next morning, the ashtray on the table in front of him was brimming with cigarette butts, and yet, he still had one between his lips.
After putting the pictures back into the metal box, he glanced at his phone and calculated the time at Dartan before making a call.
“Hello:” A squeaky voice rang out.
The moment he heard the adorable “hello,” much of the frustration within him dissipated. He inquired in a gentle tone, “Mandy, how are you?”
After a long silence, Armand tensed up. “Why aren’t you saying anything?”
A few seconds later, Amanda replied dejectedly, “When I called you previously, you didn’t pick up. Therefore, I thought that you don’t like me anymore.”
