However, Genevieve only calmly looked at her and put her forefinger to her lips to quiet her. She said, “It’ll be bad if you accidentally fall.”
She slowly tied the rope to the rickety window.
It was a knot with buckles.
Seeing this, Andrea became more desperate.
Genevieve took a deep breath. She felt better at last.
She was finally able to find some relief from the heavy feelings in her heart and the daily nightmare of falling off a cruise ship into the sea.
She mused, ‘This is great. It’s better to torment others than to torture myself.”
Genevieve washed the towel and put it aside.
She stood in front of the mirror and pursed her lips.
Then, she opened the door and went out.
The walls in the corridor were exquisite and complex, in a distinctive Baroque styl
The oil paintings on the wall looked thick and aristocratic.
Circular wall lamps were nailed to the wall, casting bright halos and dark shadows.
She barely took a few steps when she saw a tall and noble figure standing by the wall.
Between the light and shadow, his expression was complicated, and his eyes were sharp.
Anthony stood there, his eyes as dark as an abyss, looking at Genevieve with scrutiny.
It was somewhat strange.
Genevieve didn’t know if he had heard anything. She felt oppressed momentarily, but she still walked back without looking at him.

They gradually got nearer.
The scent of agarwood spread from his body, and Genevieve’s arm was grabbed.
Her eye
eyes darkened, and she stared at him coldly and indifferently.
Anthony calmly asked, “Do we know each other?”

Genevieve felt a moment of surprise. Looking at Anthony’s serious expression, she realized he wasn’t joking.
She lowered her eyes and chuckled. “It’s better if we do not,” she uttered.
She wondered, ‘Is Anthony faking it, or is he for real? How could he forget me? He sure is lucky. Even those who want to condemn his despicability can’t take the higher moral ground.”
Anthony frowned as he stared at her face and firmly said, “We know each other.”
Genevieve slightly raised her eyes and pulled her arm out of his hand as if she didn’t want to say more.
Anthony quietly said, “I see. Did you have a crush on me before? Do you like me?”
Genevieve rolled her eyes speechlessly.
Lauraine went from naive to greedy
Andrea went from gentle to vicious.
Only Anthony felt good about himself, as always, which was annoying.
She turned her head to glare at him, frowning slightly, and said, “It sure isn’t easy for you to persist in being
shameless, Mr. Hoffman.”
With that, she immediately walked away. She would suffocate by being there for another second.
“Where’s Andrea? She was also in the bathroom,” Anthony suddenly asked.
Genevieve paused in her steps as her expression grew dark. She turned her head.
She smiled meaningfully and said, “Go in and have a look yourself.”
‘They’re together now, thought Genevieve calmly.

Darrell could only send him abroad to avoid more trouble and to train himself.
After he went abroad, he made a name for himself, but no one associated him with Lawrence Group.
Genevieve saw hope when she saw him. She nodded.
Caspian glanced around as if nothing had happened, like someone who was there to strike up a conversation. He said, “I’ve been causing trouble for him recently. If you have the chance, get a strand of Louis‘ hair.”
Genevieve suddenly looked up. She asked, “Hair?”
Genevieve immediately understood the use of the hair.
It was for identification.
She wondered who he would test it with.
Just as Caspian was about to speak, the people inside walked out laughing and talking.
The people in the banquet hall crowded around to chat.
Louis left the crowd and saw Genevieve standing alone in front of the buffet, hesitating over which dessert to
eat.
Louis‘ gentle and handsome face was very notable in the crowd. His aura was strong and cold, but his temperament was always somewhat gentle, which made people feel pleasant.
He gently and decisively declined several business talks and walked toward Genevie
He said, “I didn’t see you come back after so long. I thought…”
Genevieve smiled faintly and remarked, “Thought I ran away?”
Louis looked at her quietly for a few seconds before saying, “You wouldn’t.”
Genevieve gave up on the idea of eating there.
Although the dessert looked delicate, she lost half her appetite thinking about its sweet taste.
The server retrieved their coats.
Louis took it and helped Genevieve put on her coat first. Then, he picked up his own and left with her.

Just as they left, she heard a sharp shout from the restroom behind her.

It was a dark night, and it felt damp and cold. The drizzle made the thick, waxy leaves wet, which then converged into water droplets of different sizes that fell to the ground.
Colorful neon lights were reflected on the ground.
It was as if the night was torn in half.
Louis opened the door for her, but Genevieve didn’t get in.
She turned around in the drizzle and looked up slightly.
Her side profile was delicate, with her lips full and her eyebrows vivid.
She looked up to the 22nd floor and the figure teetering in the air.
She looked regretful.
She sighed inwardly, thinking, ‘Too bad she didn’t fall Oh, I forgot to place an ‘out of service‘ sign at the restroom door. Is that why they found her so quickly?!
Louis looked up, and his expression changed slightly. He instantly turned to look at her.
She still looked gentle and cold, and her eyes looked indifferent.
