My Husband Is A Gary Stu

Chapter 680

Armand straightened out his clothes and glanced toward the restroom before saying, “Come out.

Timothy already knows.”

The next moment, Cooper walked out of the restroom.

With a shocked expression on his face, Timothy pinched his cheeks to clear his head. “If I didn’t know

that you’re Armand, I would have thought that both of you were having a rendezvous here!”

Armand shot a cold look at the man when he heard that.

“Well, I’m just trying to liven up the tense atmosphere,” Timothy said while taking a few steps backward,

attempting to widen the distance between him and Armand. “Armand, I really miss that signature sharp

gaze of yours!”

Cooper had his arms crossed in front of his chest as he leaned against the edge of the bed. “Given that

you’re not that smart, how did you manage to find out?”

Armand was an expert in disguise. His expression and mannerisms were exactly like Bruce’s. As such,

even Cooper, who had sharp observation skills, took a while to see through his disguise.

Moreover, Cooper had only guessed that Armand was still alive after being approached by Steven.

“I noticed it with my eyes, obviously.” Timothy was rather annoyed that Cooper had said that he wasn’t

smart. “Also, I am very smart. Have you met any professors who are young and smart like me?”

“Stop pretending,” Armand said curtly. “I know exactly what you’re like after knowing you for so long.”

Timothy pursed his lips and said, “When I accompanied my wife downstairs to get some sun earlier in

the afternoon, she told me about your relationship with Jack. She also asked me what sort of person

you are. At the end of our chat, she suddenly told me everything is a lie but didn’t elaborate on that.”

Timothy paused and looked at Cooper before continuing, “But all thanks to Mr. Sutton. I remembered

that you hated Bruce and wouldn’t allow him to go anywhere near Genevieve. However, when he sent

Genevieve to the hospital the previous time, not only did you not beat him up, you even spoke to him

face-to-face. I also found it strange that you had specially come to see him this time round. I recalled

the

conversation with my wife and suspected that Armand might be still alive.”

As such, Timothy wanted to verify his suspicions, and to his surprise, he was right.

After the man finished speaking, Cooper let out a chuckle before saying, “I had made sure that there

wasn’t anyone around before speaking to Armand. I didn’t expect that you would notice us.”

“Well, even though you guys were alone, there are surveillance cameras around,” Timothy giggled,

feeling proud of his wits. “Don’t worry, I’m very close to those guys in the surveillance room. I’ll get

them to delete the footage.”

Cooper gave Timothy a thumbs up as a compliment.

Timothy picked up an orange from the table and started peeling it. Fixing his gaze on Armand, he

asked, “But Armand, why did you fake your death and change your identity? Does Genevieve know

about it?”

“I did it to save Genevieve,” Armand said, narrowing his eyes, before telling Timothy the entire truth.

Timothy munched on his orange while saying contemplatively, “My family is in the medical business,

and we have quite a few medical research and development facilities. As such, I am more updated

than other doctors on the newest medicines available. Armand, that Curb.emotion that you mentioned

isn’t anything scary. It’s just a type of poison.”

“Can you explain in layman terms? We don’t understand medical jargon,” Cooper said, feeling

confused.

“Let’s take ice as an example. We all know that ice is mainly made up of methamphetamine, which

increases the production of adrenaline in the kidneys. It is transported to the brain through the

bloodstream and would keep people in an elevated state of excitement. This process is irreversible.

The feeling is similar to that when we are dehydrated and need to keep drinking water.”

Taking a pause, he continued, “Curb.emotion has the opposite effect. It would drain any excitement out

of the body. Once the body feels excitement, the dopamine and endorphins produced would combine

with the existing poison in the bloodstream, causing the blood vessels to quickly expand, increasing the

heart rate..”

Feeling tired from talking, Timothy grabbed the glass on the table and took a gulp of water before

asking,

“Do you guys understand now?”

Armand nodded.

When he first heard about Curb.emotion from Bruce, Armand had thought that it was a scary drug and

was worried that something bad would happen to Genevieve.

However, after listening to Timothy’s explanation, he realized that it was not as bad as he had thought.

Armand looked up suddenly and fixed his gaze on Timothy. His breath quickened as he asked,

“Timothy, since you know the drug so well, would you be able to produce an antidote for it?”

Chapter 681

Timothy nodded confidently and replied, “Of course!”

Armand was slightly stunned as he exchanged glances with Cooper. “Is it really that simple?” he asked

in disbelief.

“It wouldn’t be easy if you had asked someone else, but who am I?” Timothy tugged at his white coat

before saying smugly, “I’m a doctor and also a neurosurgeon. To me, opening a human’s brain is as

simple as peeling an orange. Besides, my family is in the medical business. Even those professors at

the medical research facilities have to show me some respect!”

“Guys, what’s with your expressions?” Timothy said in frustration after taking a pause. “Do I not look

like a doctor?”

Cooper nodded and replied honestly, “You look more like a playboy.”

Timothy was utterly speechless.

Previously, Armand and Cooper had thought that Curb.emotion was an extremely lethal drug, and as

they had not made any progress after so long, it had never crossed their minds to ask Timothy for help.

Also, Armand had not told Timothy anything because Timothy was too gullible and they were worried

that Jack would find out the truth.

“No, I think Timothy is quite capable,” Armand praised the man before continuing, “It was Timothy who

operated on me previously when I had a brain injury. If not for him, I might have been dead already.”

“Well, I became a senior doctor because of my outstanding abilities,”

Timothy lifted his chin and said arrogantly, “Since you know I’m capable, why didn’t you come to me for

help earlier?”

Ignoring his question, Armand asked anxiously, “How long do you need to produce the antidote?”

Timothy touched his face with his fingers and said with a crease between his brows, “I’m not sure. I

need to get a sample of Genevieve’s blood and send it for testing first. If we manage to separate the

components of Curb.emotion and find the poisonous substances, we can start doing experiments to

attack the poison before doing clinical trials on humans. However, I don’t think the components could

be easily separated from the blood sample.”

The man paused before continuing, “Alternatively, you can either get me another sample of

Curb.emotion or

let me have the research information on it. As long as I know what the poisonous substances in the

drug are, it would be easy for me to produce an antidote.”

Armand let out a bitter laugh before replying, “All the research information on the drug has already

been burned. A while back, Cooper managed to find a doctor who had worked at Oleigh previously.

That doctor was also involved in the development of Curb.emotion and knew quite a bit about it.

However, Steven went overseas to look for the doctor but wasn’t able to find him.”

Only then did Timothy know the reason Steven went overseas. “If that’s the case, would it be possible

to get another sample of Curb.emotion?”

“There are three samples of Curb.emotion altogether,” Armand said. “Bruce had only managed to get

one through his friend’s connections.”

Given that a long time had passed, it was likely that the other two samples had already been used by

the other buyers.

However, Armand was not demoralized.

The fact that Timothy was confident in producing an antidote for Curb.emotion gave him great hope. As

such, it did not matter to him even if that doctor could not be found.

Armand sent a text to Steven, instructing him to try his best to obtain a sample of Curb.emotion,

regardless of its cost.

“After Genevieve’s fever subsides, I’ll draw a blood sample from her and send it for testing.” Suddenly,

Timothy reached out to touch Armand’s face.

However, before his fingers could reach the man’s face, Armand had already slapped his hand away.

Timothy blew on his reddened hand and said, “I don’t believe that our technology is advanced enough

to create such a realistic mask. It’s practically flawless! Armand, seriously, you did cosmetic surgery

and changed your face to look exactly like Bruce, right?”

Ignoring the man’s comments, Armand warned, “Try not to contact me too often. I don’t want Jack to

get suspicious.”

“Given that he could even use Curb.emotion on Genev, if he knows that you’re capable of producing an

antidote…” Cooper said before continuing, “he would definitely kill you after obtaining the antidote.”

Knowing that Jack was a lunatic,

Timothy said with a defeated look on his face, “If I had known this earlier, I would have treated as

though Armand’s dead!”

Indeed, curiosity kills the cat!

Chapter 682

The three men spend quite a while talking in the room.

At three in the morning, Timothy received a call from the nurse about Genevieve breaking her fever. He

and Cooper immediately rushed to the hospital.

Armand’s heart could finally settle back in his chest. He made a phone call as he heaved a relieved

sigh.

Jack accompanied Genevieve in the bathroom for a few hours. The water in the bathtub was drained

and refilled several times.

Seeing the unusual flush on Genevieve’s face receding and her breathing evening out, Jack’s tense

body finally relaxed.

He wanted to help Genevieve change

out of her wet clothes but hesitated. In the end, he called the nurse waiting outside the bathroom for

help.

Once the nurse was done, Jack carried Genevieve into the wheelchair. He then reached for the hair

dryer to blow dry her hair.

After making sure her hair was dry, he carried her to the bed. As he tucked her in, his phone started

ringing.

“What?” he asked in a low tone, stepping into the bathroom to take the call.

The man on the other end of the phone spoke in Granatanolan, matching Jack’s tone. “Mr. Valentine,

the person in charge at OSL is stopping our ships from disembarking and unloading our cargo at the

port. Currently, our ships had dropped anchors in the sea.”

“You didn’t manage them beforehand?”

“OSL had changed their person in charge, and I couldn’t secure a meeting with the new officer.”

Jack’s eyes darkened.

The ships dropping anchor in the sea is a huge loss without even considering the valuable cargo they’re transporting.

Hearing only silence on the other end, Jack’s secretary felt a chill run down his spine. He started

cautiously, “One of the cargos is for the Osborn family. The delivery date is the day after the next. Can

you make a trip back, Mr. Valentine?”

“You guys need me for everything! What’s the point of employing all of you?” Jack snapped.

The secretary held his breath and

kept silent at Jack losing his temper.

Jack had expended a lot of effort to get the Osborn family as his partner. They’ve had numerous

collaborations together.

If Osborn Corporation doesn‘t get their cargo in time, they‘ll be furious. However, Genevieve just broke her fever. I want to stay by her side.

After contemplating over it briefly, Jack finally decided to return to Dartan. He made a call to the airport

as he exited the bathroom.

Coincidentally, Timothy and Cooper came into the room at that time.

Jack put his call on hold and crossed the room to Cooper. “I need to make a trip back to Dartan. I’ll be

there for about two weeks. Please help me look after Genev.”

Cooper snickered. “You deserve all the credit for what happened to Genev.”

While the two men were bickering,

Timothy was examining Genevieve’s condition. Once he was sure her fever had broken, he whirled

around and yanked both men out of the room with him.

“With you guys fighting right by the bed, I would’ve woken up in anger if I were Genevieve,” Timothy

complained after he shut the door. A sense of relief washed over him at the thought of his wife not

having any admirers.

The fight between men for love is too terrifying

Timothy turned to look at Jack. “She’s my wife’s best friend. Even if you’re busy and can’t come to the

hospital, I’ll still look after Genevieve, Mr.

Valentine.”

“I’m leaving two bodyguards here.” Jack pointed at two average-looking men standing not far away.

Timothy said, “Forlisle Medical is the largest shareholder of General Hospital. It’s not an exaggeration

to say that company is literally mine. With that information, who do you think dares to lay their hands on

Genevieve? You can take your bodyguards with you.”

“My people had dealt with Luther but couldn’t find Lilian.” Jack’s gaze swung to Cooper. “That’s why I’m

worried, so I’ll still leave the two bodyguards here.”

The corners of Cooper’s lips tugged into a smirk. “Just admit that you want to watch Genev. You don’t

have

to come up with an excuse.”

Jack didn’t want to waste his breathe with Cooper any longer and strode over to the two bodyguards to

whisper something to them.

After both bodyguards nodded, Jack finally left the hospital reassuringly.

Timothy was curious. “Who’s Lilian?”

“Lilian Helt, his ex-wife.” Cooper added, “Lilian was the one that tried to kill Genev. She almost died at

Lillian’s subordinate’s hands.”

Timothy gasped.
