Chapter 1233 By Her Side

After entering the study, Cooper clenched his fist and lightly punched Armand in the chest, then said through gritted

teeth, “You could have sent us a message or something to say that you were alive all this time. Do you have any

idea how guilty I felt whenever Mandy asked when you guys were coming home? I couldn't even bring myself to lie

to her!”

Armand rubbed his chest. Smiling faintly, he replied, “I know you and Steven would take good care of the kids.

Thanks for holding down the fort for us.”

“Screw you.” Cooper scoffed, then asked grimly, “Didn't Genev come back with you?”

Armand's eyes darkened. “She's still unconscious.”

He had not immediately looked for Genevieve and the others after arriving in Dartan. Knowing Genevieve, he knew

the only way he could save her and himself would be to plan meticulously ahead.

While the rescue mission had been a success, Genevieve ended up losing too much blood after she was shot by

Zephyr. By the time she was rushed to the hospital, her breathing had stopped.

The doctors had managed to revive her, but she was in critical condition. Her breathing had been weak, and her

heart stopped beating on several occasions.

Armand remained by her side through it all. He dared not sleep a wink, terrified that if he did, he would wake up to

see Genevieve dead.

At that point in time, staying with her was his top priority, and nothing else mattered to him.

Fortunately, medical technology was advanced enough to turn things around for Genevieve. The doctors carried

out treatment using only the best medical equipment and prescription, and, much to Armand's relief, her condition

stabilized after a few months.

Armand narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “I wouldn't have come back here if things weren't getting out of hand.”

He hated having to leave Genevieve alone overseas. but he had no choice.

“It was my fault. I thought those guys were as easy to handle as Edward. I underestimated those sly old foxes.”

Cooper rubbed his temples, and he sounded defeated.

“Don't beat yourself up,” Armand consoled him. “You did well enough by finding enough evidence to overturn

Gerald and Robert's case. I bet the Gaudette family is pissed off. Besides, you were dealing with formidable

opponents.”

Cooper felt slightly better after hearing this. “Mayor Taylor is stepping down due to health issues. I met with Gerald

this afternoon and found out that the new mayor isn't someone from the Gaudette family.”

Armand chuckled. “Well, my last name isn't Gaudette, now is it?”

Cooper looked up at that moment and met the other man's gaze. When he realized what Armand meant, his eyes

lit up. “So, you've been in contact with Robert and Gerald all along?” He punched Armand in the shoulder. “I'm

impressed!”

“I've always known the Gaudettes are an ambitious bunch, but I didn't care.” Armand narrowed his eyes slightly as

his gaze turned menacing. “But, that was before they hurt somebody they shouldn't have.”

Cooper frowned. “Speaking of which, how did Zephyr come into the picture? Surely, he can't be so smart as to

predict your every move, right?”

Even if Zephyr were that intelligent, Cooper remembered Frank saying that he and Genevieve were the only ones

who knew about the plan to take out the mafia.

Moreover, even if Frank did figure out that the meeting with Genevieve on the yacht was a trap, he couldn't possibly

have foreseen that Frank would strike the mafia at the same time.

When Zephyr managed to evade death and escaped to Mysonna, it took him little to no time to set up a full-fledged

business for himself. This could only mean that he had received intel and made preparations in advance.

“That's because Zephyr had a mole in Lostaria's police headquarters. Apparently, it's someone from the Gaudette

family,” Armand answered darkly.

Cooper's expression turned grave. He appeared surprised by the Gaudette family's power and influence. “I did hear

Frank mention that the mole in the police headquarters is an executive, but he's yet to find out who it is.” He

paused in thought, then questioned, “So, what did Zephyr give the Gaudette family in exchange for this intel?”

“Zephyr started a business here in Chanaea, didn't he?” Armand leaned against the table. “He's got plenty of

connections and a large business portfolio. There are some places that need GDP, and politicians are always

looking to polish up their track record and climb the ladder in order to better help the Gaudette family.”

At the mention of this, Cooper suddenly recalled something else. “I heard Eurydice's cousin is about to become the

minister of the Department of Public Information. Wouldn't you be at a disadvantage if the Gaudette family were to

gain control of the media?”

“No,” Armand replied with a cryptic smile.
