Chapter 292
Anthony interrupted her with a scowl, saying, “Don’t you have a thing for gigolos? Louis pretended to be one to get close to you, and you know how he ended up treating you. And that fitness streamer… why are you so attracted to this type?”
Anthony was so angry that he asked her what he thought,
When she married him, she was delighted with his appearance.
Anthony exuded a calm yet stern demeanor, with sharp and sleek facial features that radiated toughness and confidence. His natural presence commanded an impressive aura, making him stand out.
He remembered how infatuated Genevieve had been with his face before the divorce!
Once they had finished, she would steal kisses on his cheek every evening and whisper, “You’re so handsome. How did I get such a good–looking husband? You’re truly a tough guy…”
At that time, he only thought she was a little anthomaniac and annoyed. He tried his best to ignore her.
But now that he thought about it, it was all her true thoughts.
Why did she change her taste?
Did she like the delicate men?
Erudite?
Wasn’t it enough for men to make money?
What was the use of talent?
Could one’s talent alone sustain one’s livelihood?
Could one’s talent pay for diamonds and bling?
He couldn’t fake it like those slick, prim–and–proper dudes.

Hearing this, Genevieve was so angry.
But she didn’t want to be at a disadvantage.
She feigned calmness and raised her eyebrows, saying, “What’s the matter with gigolos? They’re actually listening to me! You’re tough, but you’re tough on everyone else as well. When I was younger, I didn’t appreciate gigolos, but now I cherish them. I have so many regrets!”
Fuming. Anthony scoffed, “You seriously need to get your eyes checked!” And then he added with sarcasm, “You’re good at toying with men’s hearts!”
After a few words, they began to feel unhappy.
They were sitting on either side, not saying a word.
It was a romantic street, night, and scene.
But they looked awkward.
Soon, Daniel exited the room and broke their embarrassment, “Ms. Lawrence, Mr. Hoffman, it’s time for dinner.”
Genevieve stood up and went in without looking back.
Anthony followed her with a gloomy face.
Daniel showed up with a huge bouquet of pink roses, looking like they flew in straight from heaven–delicate, gorgeous, and smelling just right.
Genevieve was stunned when she saw them.
Daniel smiled warmly and presented the roses to Genevieve, saying, “Here’s a surprise specially arranged by Mr. Hoffman just for you. From picking to delivery, it took less than an hour–because you deserve only the finest.”
Genevieve’s face softened, her lips curling into a grin. She thought, “What girl doesn’t love receiving flowers? They’re always a delightful surprise. Even though Anthony has a bad mouth, he has some redeeming qualities.”
Genevieve even regretted being a little bit too mean just now.
But Anthony walked over from the bathroom before she could reflect on herself.

He frowned at the bouquet in Genevieve’s arms, “Did the restaurant send flowers?”
After he said so, Genevieve and Daniel were stiff.
Genevieve’s face darkened. She wanted to throw the bouquet directly at Anthony and tell him what “quality”
was.
And Daniel didn’t expect Anthony to say such words.
Although he was emotionally intelligent, he didn’t know how to fix it.
Daniel smiled and tried to smooth things over, “Mr. Hoffman, how could you forget? Did you tell me to prepare them, especially for Ms. Lawrence?”
Anthony paused, suddenly recalling such a matter.
But it was Daniel’s suggestion and he agreed.
Before he could admit it, Genevieve threw the flowers into a nearby seat.
With a faint smile, she said, “Let’s eat quickly and be done with it!”
She hadn’t been in a good mood tonight.
Probably because she saw Anthony!
To extend her lifespan by another ten years or more, she needed to distance herself from Anthony and maintain a cheerful disposition.
Anthony glanced at the bouquet of flowers.
His face darkened slightly.

He thought she didn’t like the flowers, so she threw them away when she heard it was from him.
He felt a little depressed.
There was still a slight tingling pain.

He hated Lucas even more.
Jaiden from the Yowhayton was confident in his cooking skills.
However, it was he who was called out of bed in the middle of the night and flew on a private jet to serve two
people.
But he’s happy to be seen.
So he finished cooking and happily came out to talk with them.
“Are you satisfied with your midnight supper today? Given the late hour, they weren’t overly greasy, a beautiful woman was present after all.”
Anthony nodded and said, “Great.”
Although he had no appetite at the moment to taste these expensive dishes.
Jaiden, unhappy with his comments, shrugged and looked at Genevieve.
Genevieve wiped her mouth with a napkin and exclaimed sweetly, “This is truly amazing! The flavors are perfectly balanced, and the fruit and vegetable dish is the most delightful blend of sour and sweet I’ve ever tasted. Thank you so much for preparing such a delicious meal. I apologize for Anthony’s late–night imposition
on you.”
