Chapter 286
The table was deadly silent.
Bill’s face stiffened and he turned to look at Lucas.
Lucas sat there calmly as if nothing was wrong.
Genevieve took a deep breath and cursed Anthony more than ten times in her heart. Then she adjusted her mood and added with a smile. “Actually, he is my ex–husband.”
Anthony paused and said, “I think this is a more appropriate way to describe our relationship.”
“We have nothing to do with each other now. Anthony, don’t overthink.”
Anthony raised his eyebrows and smiled. “It’s up to me. I’m best at making dreams come true.”
The two of them argued with each other.
Genevieve gritted her teeth and said, “It’s a dream that will never come true.”
Bill knew that Genevieve had married, but he didn’t know she married Anthony.
Lucas liked Genevieve, and Anthony was his ex. This relationship was a little tricky.
Bill sat there blankly, and waited for them to finish.
“Lucas, Genevieve is your friend. Please say something.”
Lucas took a sip of the wine in front of him and said with a smile, “Genevieve said that it was past things. We should respect others‘ private affairs.”
“Genevieve doesn’t want to mention it. Can’t you see that?”
Bill was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, “Yes, I know.”
He looked at Genevieve happily. “So this is your ex–husband. You have good taste.”

Genevieve smiled and said, “I was stupid. I will be careful of my next choice.”
O
Bill smiled to smooth things over. “You are an excellent man. You may divorce because of personality clashes, but it doesn’t matter. I will introduce more suitable girls to you later. You won’t be disappointed.”
Anthony frowned slightly and was unhappy.
He thought, ‘What kind of nonsense is Bill talking about?‘
“That’s not necessary. You can keep it yourself.”
Bill waved his hand. “I don’t need it.”
Anthony frowned and said, “So I have to keep someone you don’t want?”
Bill knew he had made a slip of the tongue and was awkward for a moment, then immediately changed the topic. “It must have been a tough trip, right? I believe in the sincerity of Anthony, and our cooperation will be
successful.”
He raised his glass, and Lucas and Genevieve followed. Everyone cheered and drank.
Genevieve crept up to Lucas and whispered, “What kind of cooperation does he have with your family?”
Lucas pursed his lips and said, “I don’t know.”
Although Lucas was the general manager, the Simpson family had many complicated relationships.
There was a huge group behind Bill.
No matter whether it was normal business or shady deals, they had respective people in charge.
Lucas was not allowed to deal with some business.
So, he had no idea that Anthony and Bill had a corporation.
Genevieve and Lucas seemed to be talking in a whisper, seeing which, Anthony’s eyes reddened, trying to
restrain his emotions.
“What is Lucas saying? Is there anything you can’t say for everyone to hear?”

Lucas smiled, “Nothing. I’m just curious how my father knows you.”
Bill also smiled and said, “Don’t you always feel sorry for losing Clusia’s market? Actually, we still have business
there.”
Bill didn’t hide it in front of Genevieve. After all, he already regarded her as one of the family members.
Genevieve’s eyes widened in shock.
She thought, ‘How could they sell weapons in Clusia?
‘Is this a joke?
“Those reckless gangsters may do it.
“But, the gangsters have almost disappeared because of the campaign against gang crime, let alone selling weapons. How is it possible?‘
Lucas frowned slightly and said, “It turns out that Anthony introduced us to the military of Clusia.”
Lucas thought, “Except for Clusia’s army, there is no market for weapons.
“When I talked to Genevieve as a joke, it scared her half to death.
‘Those lethal weapons have no market in Clusia’s market.
‘Unless it’s the military.
‘The complexity of the international situation makes Clusia’s military vigilant.
‘Their weapons are also updated, and people should be vigilant even in the most peaceful places.
Anthony smiled faintly and said, “That’s because the Simpson family is powerful enough. I just give you a little
help.”
Anthony was just modest.
Such sensitive deals, without powerful guarantors, were not easy to make.

Chapter 286
In the way that Bill treated Anthony, you could see how much Anthony played in it.
Genevieve thought, ‘I didn’t expect that Anthony would have this kind of power.
‘Maybe he just gets luck,”
During the dinner, Anthony and Lucas were picking fish bones at the same time.
Lucas was one step ahead of him. After picking out the fish bone, he put one piece of fish in front of Genevieve.
Almost at the same time, Anthony tried to do the same thing. The show–white fish was still in his bowl.
He looked at Lucas’s attentive move coldly.
It was like looking at the fish bones that he had just removed, which made him unpleasant.
His hand stopped in mid–air, and Bill noticed his movement.
Anthony was a table away from Genevieve.
That was why Bill didn’t think he was picking it out for Genevieve.
Bill thought, ‘Anthony is too admiring and respectful to me.
‘He picks out fish bones for me.
‘But, I don’t like fish very much.
“He is the guest. It was hard for me to refuse him.‘
Then Bill handed over his plate reluctantly.
Under Anthony’s gaze, Bill was somewhat moved and said, “You are so nice to me. We’re real friends.”
I
Well, I will consider you as my brother from now on.”
Bill raised his chin, indicating that he was willing to take the fish.
Anthony was speechless.
