Chapter 518

Meanwhile, Armand was unfazed when he was interrogated by the police. He answered what he knew

and remained silent about matters lic liad no knowledge of.

Soon, his lawyer arrived.

With regards to the money laundering case and the lit-and-run accident, the respective culprits had

been taken into custody.

As for the man who committed suicide, Armand’s lawyer brought documents to prove that the former

had been fired a long time ago for harming the company’s interest. Since he was no longer an

employee of Central Group, the company was not obligated to pay for his medical fees.

After further investigations, the police realized that Armand had nothing to do with the crimes and

released him the day after.

Exiting the police station together with Armand, the lawyer asked softly, “Mr. Faulkner, do you need a

ride”

Armand gently waved his hand. “Someone is picking me up.”

Outside the police station, the lawyer saw a black Bentley parked by the street. Leaning on it was a

towering man with a cigarette between his lips.

Despite his charming looks and elegant features, he exuded an intimidating aura.

It was none other than the head of Specter Corporation-Cooper Sutton.

At the sight of Armand emerging from the police station with the lawyer, Cooper threw his cigarette to

the ground and stubbed it out with his leather shoe. “Mr. Faulkner, I suppose they didn’t use the

opportunity to wallop you since your face looks untouched.”

Unbutioning his collar, Armand responded with a casual smile. “It’s not that bad. In fact, I had three

good meals yesterday.”

After a short banter, Cooper got into the driver’s seat and drove them out of the police station.

He remarked in a solemn tone, “To have his claws reach Jadeborough in just a few days, Old Mr.

Zeigler’s network is powerful indeed.”

When the scandals relating to Central Group broke, he, too, got his public relations team to divert the

attention away from Central Group with other news,

Unfortunately, the effort was futile since someone was makin sure Central Group stayed in the

headlines.

Even though Central Group held a significant stake in Twitter, the latter didn’t dare challenge the

Zeigler family.

“What happened with Mr. Lebon?” Cooper threw Armand a glance from the corner of his eye. “By

selling off his stakes, has he emptied the company accounts?”

At the rate events were unfolding, the company’s stock might be worth nothing at all.

If all of Central Group’s sharcholders reduced their stakes in the company and left, that would spell the

end of it.

In spite of the dire situation, Armand was a sea of calm, his voice steady. “Don’t you know that his wife

is Old Mr. Zeigler’s cldest granddaughter?”

Cooper almost jammed the brake at his words.

“I’m aware that his wife is twenty years younger than liim and comes from a powerful family. However, I

didn’t realize she’s Old Mr. Zeigler’s granddaughter…” Cooper was at a loss for words.

He had been wondering why Landon, who had always stood steadfastly by Armand’s side, would

abandon the latter at the first sign of trouble.

Upon arriving at Golden Restaurant, Cooper and Armand headed into a private room.

Once the waiter took their orders and left, Cooper poured himself a cup of coffee.

“After your scathing attacks on Sylvie, there’s no way she’ll let you go now that Old Mr. Zeigler is her

granddad. Once you’re done for, I’ll be next.”

“No, she doesn’t have the guts.” Armand picked out a cigarette from the pack on the table and lit it.

After taking two puffs, he calmly explained, “Half of the shares in Specter Corporation are in

Genevieve’s hands. Now that she’s married to Jack, she’s considered the lady of the Helt family. Since

offending Jack is the equivalent of challenging the Helt family of Dartan, Sylvie isn’t that dumb to touch

her.”

Since they were on the topic, Cooper’s gaze darkened as he inquired grimly, “Armand, since you love

Genev, why don’t you tell her?”

He was cognizant that Armand’s feelings for Genevieve were stronger than his.

In fact, Armand was even willing to sacrifice his life for her

Tapping his cigarette on the ashtray, Armand replied calmly, “Four years ago, I begged her to stay, but

she left with Jack without a second thought. Therefore, it’s pointless for me to say anything now. Am I

to be with her just for a few days before she leaves me in the dust with another man?”

Just when he finally managed to suppress the longing he felt for her after four tormenting years, she

came back into his life all of a sudden.

Just like any ordinary person, he wasn’t impervious to hurt and sorrow.

“I don’t think her true intention was to leave with Jack,” Cooper commented.

When Armand looked up and gave him a dubious look, Cooper took out a picture and slid it up

to him.

Staring at the faded picture and the beautiful woman in it, Armand narrowed his eyes. “Where did you

get this?”
