Chapter 122 I Will Accompany You Back

A colleague who read the email rolled her chair and ran to Genevieve to whisper, “You were just asked

to deliver documents to the CEO’s office. We thought that Mr. Faulkner took a fancy to you, but it turns

out that he just called you up for a chat? It’s no wonder you looked so gloomy when you came back.”

“Did I?” Genevieve touched her face.

“Yes.” The colleague nodded and asked curiously, “Mr. Faulkner looks quite gentle. Did he scold you

fiercely?”

When I came back, I was wondering how I was supposed to answer if my colleagues asked about

gossip, but now that there’s this email to work as my cover, I can just go along with it.

She sighed and waved her hand. “Well, those who know, know.”

The colleague was speechless.

As soon as this email was sent out, it almost immediately purged the atmosphere in Central Group.

No man came over to fawn over Genevieve when she went to the restaurant for lunch at noon.

A few colleagues who had lunch with her gossiped about the news they read online a few days ago.

One of them was about how Armand’s first love was the daughter of the Wood family. They dated for

more than ten years, but the lady was stolen away by Armand’s older brother.

Although topics on Twitter disappeared quickly, many netizens saved the news and spread them

among their groups.

Genevieve’s good mood inexplicably became upset. She packed up the food that she only ate a few

bites of and went back to the department.

In the afternoon, Jenny handed two documents to her, and Genevieve became swamped with work.

Since she spent a lot of energy, she was already hungry before it was time to get off work.

Since Patrick went out in the field, she did not wait for him and went back after her shift ended.

On the way back, she bought a dessert.

When she got home, as soon as she entered the house, she saw Maria with her back to her. Maria was

standing in the small dining room to the side, wiping her face with one hand.

“Maria?” Genevieve put the dessert on the table and walked over. “What’s wrong?”

“I’m fine.” Maria quickly wiped away her tears, not letting Genevieve see anything. However, her hoarse

voice made it obvious that she had been crying.

“If you’re fine, then why are you crying?” Genevieve clearly did not believe her. “Is it something that you

can’t tell me?”

Seeing Genevieve stare at her anxiously, Maria had to tell the truth. “My daughter-in-law called me,

saying that Ryan broke his leg at school and is in the hospital now. She wants me to visit him.”

Genevieve knew that Maria was in poor health and gave birth to a son when she was young.

Her son was also quite competitive and obtained a Ph.D. at a young age. Since his wife was from

Feston, he stayed in Feston to work, and the couple gave birth to a son.

Maria’s daughter-in-law had a good maiden home, and her mother took care of the child, so Maria

could stay and help the Rachford family with no worries.

I remember that Maria would go to Feston once every two months to see her son and grandson.

However, because the Rachford family was ruined a few months ago, Maria stayed with me to take

care of me.

Genevieve’s eyes stung, and she immediately went to her room to take out all the cash in her drawer.

“Maria, I’ll accompany you to Feston now.”

“N-No, you can’t.” Maria quickly stopped her. “Ms. Rachford, you just got a job and are quite busy. The

doctor said that my grandson is fine, so I can go back by myself.”

She wiped her tears and said apologetically, “I’m just worried that there’s no one to take care of you if I

leave.”

Genevieve did not know what to say. She felt her heart sink, yet a sense of warmth bubbled from

within.

Holding back her tears, she stuffed the cash into Maria’s bag and slipped in a bank card as well. “Don’t

worry about me. Even if I can’t cook, I can just order take-out or call a few maids back from Swallow

Garden. You haven’t been back for a long time. I’m sure that Ryan misses you, so go back and spend

more time with him. If you don’t have enough money, just call me and tell me.”

“How could I—” Maria wanted to say something.

“Come on, let’s not fuss about this.” Genevieve interrupted Maria’s words and pulled her to the

underground garage.

After the Rachford family fell, I wouldn’t have come this far if it weren’t for Maria staying with me. I’ve

stopped thinking of her as a maid long ago. She’s practically my family now.
