Chapter 722
Armand continued, “It took me a while to realize my father didn't want my mother to die with him. He wanted her to continue to live. That was why Old Mr. Faulkner placed a knife on my mother's neck after he found out what my father was thinking.”
After a short pause, he added, “That's exactly how I feel about Genevieve. I love her, and she's a part of my life. We even have kids together. How can I watch her die since she's only in her twenties? She still has a bright future ahead of her.”
Armand was not an expressive man, but his words struck a chord with Timothy and Cooper.
At this point, Cooper finally realized he was willing to give Genevieve everything and even die for her because of his guilt. He wanted to make it up to her because he felt guilty about tearing the Rachford family apart and killing his adoptive parents.
In other words, he was not as deeply in love with Genevieve as Armand. Otherwise, he would not have fallen in love with Jane.
After keeping quiet for some time, Timothy wished to voice his thought. “Can I speak now?”
“Go ahead,” Armand said.
“I'm very touched by the things you said, Armand. I never thought you could be this emotional, but...”
Timothy wiped his cheeks with his fmger even though there was not a single teardrop and continued, “This medicine can cause some side effects to the human body, but it won't kill the person. So you two don't have to fight to become the lab rat.”
Timothy's remark had rendered Cooper speechless. “Why didn't you tell us earlier?”
“Before I could say anything, you and Armand have started arguing!” Timothy smiled in nonchalance while spreading his hands in feigned innocence. “Besides, I wouldn't get a chance to hear those heartfelt words from Armand had I told you the truth.”
Armand was nonplussed. He rolled up his sleeve, revealing his fair but muscular arm. “Go ahead.”
Timothy opened the cooler box and took out a syringe. “Before administering the antidote, I'll have to inject you with Curb.emotion first. We can only proceed with the antidote injection an hour later.”
Armand hummed in acknowledgment. “Do you still have Curb.emotion?”
