Chapter 550
A
Upon seeing that the elderly man spoke with a hint of authority, Genevieve reckoned that he must have been a leader in the past.
Embarrassed to turn him down further, she handed her luggage to the driver. “Thank you.”
“Don’t mention it.”
When the bodyguard opened the car door, Herbert and Genevieve climbed into the car, one after another
After Genevieve had gotten into the car, she received a call from her housekeeper in Dartan. She moved closer to the car door and spoke to the housekeeper in Granatanolan.
Herbert remained silent without interrupting her.
Only after she had hung up the phone did he query, “Judging from your exceptional aura and the fact that you know Granatanolan, you’re an interpreter?”
“Yeah. I studied in Dartan but returned to my country after graduating. I was only an interpreter for a few months. Right now, I’m a small-time business owner.” Genevieve put her phone into her bag.
“You’re pretty incredible, then,” Herbert lauded.
It was as though something occurred to him, for a faint smile showed on his face. “My wife was also an interpreter when she was young. That aside, she was a prodigy at crossing swords with others.”
His wife was the kind of woman who looked exceedingly gentle, appearing meek and biddable.

It was so bad that horrified expressions showed on those bigwigs’ faces whenever they spotted her speaking
As Genevieve listened to him speak of his wife’s anecdotes, she couldn’t help bursting into giggles, “Are you afraid, then? With her speaking so many languages, you wouldn’t know if she were to curse you out when the two of you have a row one day.”
“I’m not afraid. In my eyes, she’s an incredibly gentle woman. Furthermore, I never had a row with hey ever since we got married,” Herbert crowed.
Even if there were minor conflicts between them, whenever he went to the army base, it would be for a few months.
By the time he returned, they would have both forgotten why they had previously fought.
“I can tell that you love your wife very much.” Only when a person spoke of someone he loved
would his face and eyes reflect overwhelming tenderness and smile.
Althat, Herbert froze. In no time, he chuckled heartily, his despondency all but gone. “You‘re right! How foolish of me to think that she has left me.”
