Chapter 293
Anthony froze.
He took a closer look.
Genevieve didn’t wake up, just a whisper, “Piss off! Damn it, Anthony…”
Anthony’s eyes darkened instantly.
She was still cursing him in her sleep!
On second thought, cursing was a form of love. She still held him dear in her heart.
Anthony’s face softened a little, and despite his lingering displeasure, he leaned in for a kiss.
He only dared to give her a fleeting kiss, afraid she might scold him if she woke up.
He was satisfied.
Anthony quietly closed the door and went out.
Daniel was waiting outside with the papers and other materials he needed to deal with.
With a mix of emotions, he urged, “Mr. Hoffman, if you truly desire to reconcile with Ms. Lawrence, then give it your all. Do not be too cursory in your efforts.”
Anthony frowned slightly and retorted with dissatisfaction, “Am I not giving her enough attention? I’m eager to reveal my sincerity to her! It’s those around her who are causing rifts between us, preventing her from fully forgiving me!”
‘What’s with the people around her?‘ Daniel pondered, unable to contain his thoughts, “Well, you should humble yourself. The key to wooing a girl is to ‘beg‘! Didn’t you notice how pale Ms. Lawrence looked at night? Why did you still argue with her?”
Anthony’s face darkened, “I’m being reasonable, not quarreling.”
Daniel was speechless.

‘Forget it. I have nothing more to say!‘ He thought.
Daniel handed over the prepared documents and explained, “Here’s all the information regarding Lucas. Both Lucas and Robbin are not Bill’s biological children. Lucas is an orphan raised by Bill since childhood, as he was the son of an old friend. As for Robbin, Carrie brought her into the Simpson family from a welfare home when she was five. Although Bill initially didn’t want her, Carrie insisted on keeping her.“”
Anthony perused the document and furrowed his brow, puzzled. “Neither of them is from the Simpson family. Why? Is it not possible for Bill to have children?”
Daniel paused and said, “The relationship between Bill and Carrie is bizarre. They don’t seem to have a good relationship, but Bill still trusts her and will directly leave some important matters to her. However, the Simpson family is now vaguely divided into two groups. One group supports Lucas, and the other group supports Carrie. The two groups are almost incompatible.”
Anthony squinted, and a fierce gleam popped in his eyes.
He thought, ‘Such a family background is really strange.”
After watching Daniel finish speaking, he felt the urge to say something but hesitated.
Anthony frowned and urged, “Just say it.”
Daniel pursed his lips thoughtfully and said, “I’ve picked up some rumors through the grapevine, but they may not be entirely accurate. It seems Bill once lost a child and hasn’t found her yet. He searched for her for years but encountered people who exploited his desperation to create trouble, so he ultimately gave up the search.”
Anthony raised his eyes and said, “Where did you hear that?”
“There’s a gentleman named Wayne Snyder, the CEO of the Snyder Group, who maintains a cordial relationship with Bill. This time, during dinner, I sent him a welcome gift for you. And as he was slightly tipsy, he let the secret slip.”
After saying that, Daniel looked at Anthony and kept silent.
“I got it, and you can go out,” Anthony said faintly.
The night was not peaceful.

He went back to take a shower and let the smell on his body disappear completely before he felt clean.

Anthony woke up. freshened up, and headed downstairs.
Without glancing at Genevieve, he pondered, ‘Would she have left in a huff?”
Anthony was in a strange mood.
“Where is Ms. Lawrence?”
The servant paused and pointed to Genevieve’s room, indicating that she was still resting in it.
Anthony’s face softened slightly as he glanced at the time and realized it wasn’t even nine o’clock. He surmised, ‘She must have been exhausted last night. It’s alright.‘
Anthony went downstairs briskly.
Daniel came in from the outside when he sat down and said, “Mr. Hoffman, the Simpson family has sent people over, including Robbin. They brought quite a few gifts.”
“Ask her to scram!”
Anthony felt physical disgust and nausea when he heard Robbin’s name.
Daniel paused and nodded.
This arrogant Ms. Simpson had run into a brick wall.
He thought, ‘How crazy she is, she had messed with Anthony!‘
Daniel went out to the door.
Looking at Robbin, who was stopped outside, he said indifferently, “Ms. Simpson, please go back. Mr. Hoffman is not available to see you.”
Robbin’s face turned pale.

Chapter 293
Taking into account Carrie’s words, she would not oppose Bill.
If she couldn’t secure Anthony’s forgiveness, she would leave the Simpson family!
She pursed her lips and appeared both flattering and aggrieved, saying, “I sincerely apologize, Whatever demands Mr. Hoffman makes, I’m willing to comply. Please, Mr. Simmons, help me. If Mr. Hoffman just sees me, he’ll surely forgive me.”
Daniel had seen all kinds of people as Anthony’s secretary.
He felt that, as Bill’s daughter, regardless of whether she was his biological child, she ought to possess a certain degree of dignity and pride.
Such humiliation and some unimportant tricks were truly degraded.
“Ms. Simpson, there’s no need to go through the trouble. What you’ve done has angered Mr. Hoffman greatly, and he doesn’t even want to see you!”
Robbin’s eyes darkened slightly, revealing a hint of anger.
Daniel was just an assistant. Why should he talk to her like that?
She took a deep breath and forced a smile, “Doesn’t Mr. Hoffman like women?”
She pondered, ‘Last night, despite my efforts, he remained unaroused. Perhaps he’s not attracted to women? If Genevieve, who married such a wealthy and powerful man, was willing to divorce him, and he…”
Daniel raised his eyes with a distant look, “Mr. Hoffman doesn’t like self–righteous women.”
That was enough to be rude.
Robbin’s face also darkened.
