Chapter 290
Perceiving the suspicious tone of Anthony’s words, Genevieve knitted her eyebrows.
She said unpleasantly, “Who do you think you’re? Why do I need to explain to you?”
She had promised to help Anthony find his grandparents and successfully made it.
Now, she was relieved and didn’t want to get involved with him any longer.
Finding Genevieve was distancing herself from him, Anthony was irritated.
He answered, “What do you think? “I came to pick you up in person, only to see you flirt with another man. What’s more, you even didn’t believe me at that critical moment…”
He was so angry as if he had been wronged.
Then he added, “Have you thought about my feelings? If it had been you, I would have believed in you firmly!”
Genevieve gazed at Anthony, feeling a little uncomfortable.
It seemed that she had really done something wrong to him.
However, at the same time, Genevieve was very speechless about the accusation of Anthony since Lucas and she was just talking in a normal way.
She rolled her eyes and looked out of the window, fuming without intention to talk with Anthony.
Daniel couldn’t bear to see Genevieve misunderstand Anthony and said tentatively, “Ms. Lawrence, Mr. Hoffman put aside company business to visit the Simpson family because he was worried that you would get into trouble. He didn’t expect you were also here.”
Genevieve’s heart paused for a second when she heard this. A mixed feeling came over her.
She had been accustomed to being a strong and independent person at any time and didn’t how to react to
sudden care from others.
‘Did Anthony really fall into someone else’s trap tonight?‘ wondered Genevieve.

However, Anthony’s words quickly made her sober up.
“I’ve heard that yesterday, a person shot a gun at the banquet held by the Simpson family.

“It was Mad Dog’s woman who went crazy and shot indiscriminately. Fortunately, she was a terrible shot and no
one got injured.
“How can I trust you staying alone when such a lunatic wandered around you?”
Genevieve kept silent with a sullen face.
She thought, ‘Do you know what you’re talking about? A terrible shot? I’ve never learned how to shoot. It’s normal that I miss the aim. I’m not a lunatic! You know nothing about what really happened at all. How dare you brag about it!‘
Genevieve couldn’t stand it anymore and interrupted him, “Did you see it with your own eyes? It wasn’t indiscriminate aims but a targeted revenge.’
Anthony glanced at her with a complicated look and asked angrily, “Were you there?”
“Yes,” Genevieve admitted directly.
Anthony said furiously, “It’s so dangerous. How could you be there?”
‘What if you get hurt?‘ wondered Anthony.
“Why shouldn’t I be there? I was there for business. Do you know who the target is?” Genevieve added.
She gazed at Anthony whose good–looking face showed anger and confusion.
Anthony replied shortly, “I don’t know.”
Genevieve looked at him and said word by word, “It was Rosalie!”
There was a dead silence in the car after Genevieve finished her words.
Genevieve wanted to see the surprise and sadness on Anthony’s face in the dim light. Then she could be
confirmed that his love for her was fake.

Rosalie was the deciding factor contributing to their deteriorating relationships.
Because of Rosalie, they divorced and Genevieve had a miscarriage; they cursed each other with the worst words and became sworn enemies.
“You should be sad. After all, she’s your true love!‘ thought Genevieve.
As expected, Anthony turned gloomy and went into a sulk. It seemed that there was a storm ahead.
Daniel didn’t even dare to breathe, thinking in shock, “What?”
Anthony asked in a heavy voice, “Don’t tell me that you are the shot?”
Genevieve slightly raised her chin with disdain on her bright face and admitted, “Yes, it’s me. Who else would hate Rosalie so much? If she’s not dead, I’ll give her another shot again. Anthony, are you heartbroken?”
Anthony’s eyes deepened and his face somehow sharpened.
He reached out and grabbed Genevieve’s hand, his eyelashes shivering slightly. It seemed that he was trying his
best to control his temper.
“Genevieve, do you know what you are doing? Aren’t you afraid…”
Anthony quickly perceived the potential danger. Rosalie was probably Mad Dog’s woman.
‘Mad Dog would absolutely not let Genevieve go easily.‘ Anthony started to feel terrified and blamed himself for not coming earlier.
“Are you kidding me? What should I be afraid of?
“Instead of watching her appear in front of me again and again to remind me how pathetic my past is, I might get her out of my life completely,” said Genevieve. Her eyes were reddish, and she felt faintly that the scar on her
chest hurt.
Everyone thought that since she already revenged herself, she should let everything go with the wind.
But she couldn’t!
Even if Rosalie died a hundred times, she couldn’t let it go!

Her life had been shattered into pieces and became incomplete and broken even if she attempted to mend it. No one could feel such pain for her!
She could never forgive Rosalle.
Genevieve smiled gently and looked at Anthony with a complicated feeling.
“Do you think I’m crazy?” asked she.
Genevieve thought to herself, I’m just a lunatic shot.
But the next second, she was pulled into a warm embrace.
Anthony held her tightly in his arms and seemingly wanted to press her into his body.
Genevieve suddenly wanted to cry, but she managed to hold it back.
The lights outside were dim, and the wind was cold there.
The pedestrians who walked along the side of the roads were wearing heavy coats.
Even though she stayed in the car, Genevieve didn’t feel any warmth.
Anthony’s chest was hard and his force was so huge that Genevieve couldn’t free herself from his embrace.
After a long time, Anthony asked in a husky voice, “Do you think I’m a useless person?”
Because of his incompetence, Genevieve had to act indifferently to disguise her real thoughts and feelings.
He was just doing some senseless repentance for his terrible behaviors toward her in the past.
Genevieve must resent him so bitterly.
Even at this critical moment, I chose to take revenge on her own.
However, it was he who should do these things instead of her.
Anthony felt extremely guilty and remorseful.

Suddenly, he felt a little wet on his shoulders.
Genevieve was crying uncontrollably.
She didn’t make a sound but sobbed quietly.

‘Useless person?‘ Genevieve gritted her teeth and mocked in a hoarse but cold voice, “You’re very useful when helping others against me. What a good helper you are!
“Anthony, I told you not to waste your time on me. I can forgive you, but I won’t forget what you did.
“What you should do now is to go to Rosalie’s grave and grieve over her death. It’s no use crying in front of me.”
