After saying that, Genevieve returned to the hospital room. 

Anthony paled. He was annoyed, and he felt like something was lodged in his chest, cutting off his words. 

A few seconds later, he regained his composure and left quietly. 

He wanted to get closer to Genevieve, but he was also wary of her. 

Anthony wouldn’t say he liked her to the point of infatuation, but his emotions were so easily swayed by her, and she put him at ease. 

He certainly didn’t love Genevieve, though he would hate to be dumped by her. That would be embarrassing. 

It was like Genevieve had chosen to bait him today. 

His pride would never allow him to demand an answer from her, and it was even less likely to let him pester her. 

However, he felt inexplicably empty as soon as he left the hospital. It was like his chest had been hollowed out. 

Meanwhile, Genevieve was on a call with Jasper. “Call the police? No, that’s too much work. We’ll proceed as planned.” 

She ended the call and turned around. 

Monica assessed her with narrowed eyes. “That man from earlier likes you, right?” 

Genevieve raised a brow and laughed. “He only likes himself.” 

Monica had seen enough in her lifetime to know better. “Genevieve, you’d do well to marry a kind, gullible fool. That man has far too many schemes to be anything but bad news.” 

Monica’s advice resonated with Genevieve and enlightened her. She regarded Monica with newfound respect. 

The elderly knew best, after all. 

The moment Anthony got into his car, he sensed another presence.

“Who’s there?” he asked sharply. 

Andrea sobbed, and clumsily popped out from where she was hiding in the backseat. 

She had wanted to approach Anthony the moment he woke up, so she asked for the spare keys to the car. 

Fortunately, he did not switch cars.

“I’m sorry. I was chased out and had nowhere else to go. Even the patients threw my things out. Genevieve probably put them up to it. Hiding in here was my best option,” Andrea said tearfully, trembling, “You’re the only one who can help me now, Anthony.” 

She had lost to Genevieve twice since the day Genevieve dangled her from the window of a multi–story building 

in Atharia. 

Andrea feared that if she did not get rid of Genevieve, the latter would only keep haunting her. This fear alone 

could kill Andrea.

Anthony did not start the car. His gaze 

The air in the car turned cold. 

A few seconds of silence later, Anthony asked icily, “Andrea, your feud with Genevieve goes beyond this incident. Is there an old grudge between you both?” 

His instincts told him that things were not as simple as they seemed. 

While he thought Andrea deserved every bit of Genevieve’s vengeance, Genevieve’s methods were so extreme they bordered on obsessive. It was like she had a blood debt to settle with Andrea. 

But as far as Anthony knew, Genevieve was not the single–minded and vengeful type. 

Genevieve was patient and easygoing, so kind that she would even shelter strays from a rainy night. 

‘So why the enmity?‘ Anthony asked himself. He didn’t have an answer. It was like the truth was out of his reach. 

Andrea blanched at Anthony’s words, her breath hitching. She panicked and began to tremble with fear. 

“W–We were never close enough to have any grudges. Maybe she resents me for becoming the lady of the

Hoffman family. She was hostile toward Rosalie, too,” Andrea said through her sobs, her voice shaking. “Please help me, Anthony…” 

She couldn’t tell him about the huge secret that was the cruise ship incident. 

A grave look passed over Anthony’s features. 

He knew Andrea was lying, in which case, he saw no reason to help her. 

He snorted nonchalantly. “And what can I do?” 

Andrew grew hopeful. “Can you get rid of Genevieve?” 

Anthony’s gaze darkened as he tightened his grip on the steering wheel, the veins on the backs of his hands. throbbing. 

Andrea pursed her lips and added cautiously, “Or maybe you could set her up to give us leverage against her? That would make her more obliging.” 

She had racked her brains to come up with this idea. 

Knowing Anthony, he could pull off either task with ease. 

The hard part was getting him to say yes. 

However, Andrea sensed his displeasure when she mentioned the first plan, hence the alternative proposition. 

She stared at Anthony anxiously, taking a deep breath. “This isn’t a trap, Anthony. Don’t you think she’s taking advantage of Hoffman Group’s crisis? She should pay for the company’s losses! We can’t just let her get away 

with this!” 

Anthony was sullen. He suddenly realized that Genevieve was not the only one who had become a stranger to him; Andrea had her secrets as well. 

Andrea had been there to take care of him after he woke up. 

Even the ever–pernickety Quincey was pleased with her. 

Anthony was also told that it was Andrea who had rescued him on the cruise ship. He supposed he could repay

her by marrying her like she wanted. 

He didn’t like Andrea, but he could tolerate her. 

However, Anthony was beginning to realize just how little he knew about Andrea. 

It was like there was something malicious and rotting underneath her compassionate facade. 

Anthony took a deep breath and said coldly, “Get out of my car, Ms. Thomson.” 

Andrea froze, baffled by the abrupt shift in his mood. “Anthony…” 

“Get out,” he barked in disgust. 

Andrea froze at Anthony’s cold and uncompromising demeanor, surprised that he did not agree to help her. 

She got out of the car dejectedly. After that, Anthony sped off. 

He was just about to swerve out of the underground parking lot when he looked into his rearview mirror and saw a few figures clad in black creeping up behind Andrea. 

One of them clamped his hand over Andrea’s nose and mouth while another grabbed her legs. Together, they hauled her into a nondescript van parked to the side. 

Anthony’s expression darkened, but he did not stop the car. Instead, he drove out of the parking lot and stopped by the curb. 

Soon, the silver van emerged from the parking lot. 

Anthony called Daniel and followed the van. 

Inside the silver van, one of the men noticed through the rearview mirror the black Bentley tailing them.” 

“Boss, Anthony’s following us!” he said to the driver. 

“Ms. Lawrence said he could if he wanted,” the driver replied nonchalantly. 

The men drove into the countryside and stopped outside of an abandoned factory.

The two men in the backseat hauled Andrea, who was knocked out, out of the car and into the factory. 

Anthony frowned. 

On his way here, he had wondered who might be behind this. ‘Genevieve?‘ he considered. 

He couldn’t understand why Genevieve would hire people to kidnap Andrea, especially since Andrea had no chance of a comeback after her scandal broke online. 

His only conclusion was that something had happened between the two women. 

Anthony got out of the car, looking grim. 

“There will be no going back for Genevieve if Andrea gets hurt, he thought as he followed the men.
