Chapter 774
Apart from consoling Genevieve, Armand said nothing.
Jack was absolutely right. Both of them were more powerful than anyone could ever imagine.
If he wanted to, he could easily make the Homptons disappear from the face of Xedells within a day.
Jack removed the amulet he had been wearing since he was young and tossed it at Charice. “Since you've changed
your name, I'll take it as you've passed on. You know, I'm a mad man... You'd better not lay a finger on Genev.
Otherwise, I don't know what I'll do.”
With that, he turned around and left.
Armand went after the man and stopped him outside the elevator. “Genev did all these to prevent us from killing
each other. I'll never forgive you. Nonetheless, I'll let bygones be bygones.”
Armand knew Genevieve's intention in doing all that. Hence, he tried to be the better man.

Once the doors of the elevator opened, Jack entered immediately.
Through the gap between the doors, he stared into Armand's eyes and smirked. Right before the doors shut again,
he commented, “Armand, I didn't expect you to be so weak, to the extent that you resorted to suicide upon finding
out the truth.”
Armand did not respond to him. He merely waited till the elevator doors shut completely before returning to the
lounge.
That evening, he reserved a suite for Genevieve to put up a night at the hotel.
Worried that she might be hungry, he requested permission from the hotel to use their kitchen to make oatmeal
and bagel for her. When he brought the food back to the room, Genevieve was nowhere to be found.
He tried calling her, only to realize that her phone was on the couch. Her jacket, too, was left behind.
Armand searched the room and noticed that the bathroom lights were switched on. There was also the sound of
running water. He walked to the door and knocked on it. “Darling, are you taking a shower?”
A silence ensued.
Armand opened the door and entered. He then found a drenched Genevieve sitting in the shower while leaning
against the cold wall and staring blankly into space.
His heart ached to see her in such a devastating condition. All he could do was sit down quietly beside her and keep
her company.
Moments later, Genevieve rested her head on his shoulder. She said between sobs, “Although Jack is quite vicious to
have murdered many people, he has never once hurt me. On the contrary, he loves me a lot. He even loves Lucian
and Mandy too. I just wanted to find out about Charice's death. I didn't expect that it would lead to this dreadful
outcome with Jack knowing everything... Mando, did I make a mistake?”
She raised her head and gazed at the man. Her face had turned ghastly as she allowed the cold shower to wash all
over her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmArmand hugged her and gently stroked her wet hair.
She broke down again in his embrace. “Mando, I love you very much, and I want to stay with you forever. However,
Jack has remained loyal to me right from the start. He has done a lot for me, but I've disappointed him...”
Genevieve grew up with parents who doted on her and protected her all the way. Since she was young, they had
showered her with immense love and care. As such, she had never lacked attention. However, never in a million
years would she have known that there would be two more guys who would give her never-ending affection.
She never regretted her decision in choosing Armand, but at the same time, she could not help feeling sorry for
Jack.
Armand grew up with his father by his side, whereas Jack's existence was purely an accident. The latter wanted to
protect his mother, but she had never truly loved him. As a matter of fact, she hated him to the core.
Armand cupped Genevieve's face and gently kissed her from her brows to her cheeks and then on her lips.
He kissed away her tears and muttered, “I'm grateful toward Jack for taking good care of you and the children in
those four years. However, he was too selfish and ruthless in his methods to get you. I don't hate him, but I'll never
forgive him for what he did to me. I can give him anything except you and my two kids.”
