My Flirtacious Husband

Chapter 113

At the Faulkner residence, after Harriet prayed, she had wanted to stay at the church longer with

Samantha. However, after she heard about the incident, the two rushed home in the afternoon. Harriet

sat on the couch for a long time with a grim expression after learning about what had happened from

one of the housekeepers, Mandy. The other housekeepers were standing by the side with their heads

hanging low, not daring to breathe loudly. The housekeepers were either busy upstairs or in the

courtyard in the early morning. No one would expect such a shocking incident to happen in the house.

According to them, Genevieve had pushed Marilyn, causing the latter almost to have a miscarriage.

Even though the Faulkner family was filled with their descendants, Harriet liked Samuel and Armand

the most. However, Samuel had passed away in an accident, leaving Marilyn and the baby in her

tummy behind. Thus, Harriet loved her unborn great-grandchild a lot. Some of the housekeepers even

felt that as much as Harriet liked Genevieve, she would never forgive the latter for such a grave

mistake. Just as the housekeepers felt uneasy, Harriet suddenly rose to her feet. With a darkened

expression, she walked toward Armand, who was standing next to the couch. She lifted her hand and

slapped him hard across the face. The slap was so loud that it scared the housekeepers. They were

old housekeepers who had been serving the Faulkner family for a long time. Whenever Armand came

to the Faulkner residence, Harriet was thrilled to see him. Hence, they had never seen her hitting him.

W-What is happening? “Armand, I’m very disappointed in you,” Harriet said while shaking her head and

putting her hand down in a huff. She had been alive for a long time and had seen all kinds of

deceptions and the worst of human nature. Of course, she would not believe everything a maid said.

This was the first time in Harriet’s life that she had beaten Armand. She was exasperated that her

grandchild had publicly taken Marilyn’s side without investigating what happened. He even ignored

Genevieve, who had severe burns on her legs. Armand’s expression was still ice-cold, even after being

slapped. He lowered his gaze and said, “Yes. You did right by punishing me.” “Mom, just leave this

matter to Armand,” said Samantha. She had stepped out to smooth things over. She held onto Harriet’s

arm and said, “You’re tired. Let me help you up to rest.” Harriet glared at Armand and sneered, “Right.

He has his way of doing things. There’s no need for an old lady like me to take charge.” With that, she

let Samantha help her, and they both went up to the second floor. In the living room, the housekeepers

lowered their breathing rates even more. They saw Armand sitting at the end of the couch with his wrist

on his knees. He looked casual, but the cold aura he exuded was terrifying. After a while, Armand

asked flatly, “Who treated Mdm. Genevieve’s wounds?” “I-It’s me.” A younger female housekeeper

stepped out from the crowd of housekeepers. She was the one who had served Genevieve beef pie

last night. Armand looked at her. “Is she injured badly?” “Her burns are severe. Both her legs, from her

thighs to her calves, were burnt red. Some parts had blisters too.” The housekeeper could not help but

shudder as she recalled the horrific sight. If there are blisters on her burns, then it must be serious.

Armand thought about how the woman looked at him calmly, yet she must have put a lot of effort into

suppressing the pain she felt in both legs. His throat tightened after hearing what the housekeeper

said. “Did she leave with the doctor?” “Mdm. Genevieve did not want me to call the doctor.” The

housekeeper thought for a while and added, “But she called Mr. Patrick. I think they went to the hospital

together.” After hearing that, Armand’s furrowed brows relaxed a little. He waved and called the other

housekeeper, Mandy. “Mandy, repeat what you just told Old Mrs. Faulkner.”
