“No, I’m just here to tell you. I have to go back and say hello to my father. Have a good rest,” Lucas smiled faintly
and then left.
Genevieve escorted him away and returned.
Selene looked at her on the stairs and smiled meaningfully, “He is afraid you won’t be able to sleep…”
She heard everything. And from those simple sentences, she noticed something different.
How could she not feel happy for Genevieve?
Genevieve smiled, “Professor Simpson has helped me a lot. I have to think about how to thank him!”
“You can marry him!”
“Superficial!” Genevieve went straight back to her room.
Selene said nothing.
She chuckled and decided to stop teasing Genevieve.
Genevieve finished freshening up and was about to go out with Selene.
She heard someone talking at the door.
Jasper walked over with a weird look, “Ms. Lawrence, Susan wants to see you.”
Jeffrey’s assistant, Susan, told the Lawrence family that something had happened to Jeffrey.
After a pause, Genevieve saw Susan standing tiredly, “Ms. Lawrence, I heard something happened last night. Did you find Mr. Lawrence?”
Genevieve understood she was worried about Jeffrey but couldn’t tell her too much, “Not yet. If I have news about my brother, I will tell you.”

She smiled and comforted her while walking out, “Susan, why don’t you go back home and adjust yourself? It won’t take a few days.”
“No, Mr. Lawrence is in danger. How can I go back? I hope it’s me who got into trouble!”

With a pale face, Susan said, “Ms. Lawrence, where are you going? Let me follow you so I can get Mr. Lawrence’s information as soon as possible.”
That was an overstatement.
Why she had to be the first?
Even if it was out of concem, she shouldn’t have known it first!
Genevieve paused.
Jasper immediately said, “Susan, Ms. Lawrence asked you to rest for your good. Ms. Lawrence has me and others around her. It’s no use following her. Don’t forget that we are all the same.”
His tone had some strong connotations.
Susan’s expression changed slightly, and she stood there embarrassedly, “I didn’t mean that. I was just worried about…”
Genevieve stopped by the car and looked back at her with a smile, “I know you’re worried about my brother. Don’t blame yourself too much. You’d better go back home. I will inform you in the domestics if there is any
news.”
Jasper had opened the door for her.
Genevieve stooped in and closed the door,
Susan froze outside and watched the car leave.
Selene chuckled, “Susan makes no secret of her affection for Jeffrey. How can Jeffrey not be aware of it?”
Selene admitted that she had also been fascinated by Jeffrey for a while.
However, since Jeffrey always treated her like a sister, just like Genevieve, and occasionally mentioned how they

both played in the sand naked at family gatherings, Selene couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.
Then, her enthusiasm for Jeffrey was wholly extinguished.
After hearing this, Genevieve explained, “My brother was not aware. He kept the only female assistant, Susan, because he sympathizes with her as a single mother.”
Selene was shocked.
It was a secret, but Jeffrey knew everything about the people around him.
Therefore, he knew Susan’s situation and trusted that she wouldn’t harm him, hence hiring her as his assistant.
If he had known it, he would have fired her long ago.
After digesting it, Selene couldn’t help asking, “What happened to Jeffrey?”
She always felt something was wrong.
Genevieve felt she couldn’t hide it, so she told Selene everything.
“You must keep this matter a secret, okay?” said Genevieve.
Selene nodded in a daze and looked severe.
Without saying much, Genevieve looked at Jasper and said, “Book a flight for Susan and ask her to come back
home.”
“Yes, Madam,” answered Jasper.
Selene followed Genevieve to school.
Lucas was going to pick her up, but Genevieve politely declined and said she would go to school by herself.
Selene talked business smoothly for several days, so she wanted to stay with Genevieve for a few more days and insisted on following her.
Genevieve was dressed casually in a beige dress adorned with an emerald, yet her attire exuded a sense of ease and relaxation.

Selene dressed in a sexy style, happily tagging along beside Genevieve.
Looking at Lucas, who was surrounded by people walking on the road, she shook her head and said, “Professor Simpson, he is a good guy.”
“What?” Genevieve did not understand what it meant, for she had seen this scene more than once.
There was no doubt that professors like Lucas were popular in schools.
After all, everyone liked handsome guys. Who cared about old men?
Selene lifted her gaze and smiled, saying, “He’s still single, which means he’s an infatuated man or a gay.”
Genevieve glances at her, “He’s not gay!”
“Then you must cherish him!” Suddenly, Selene exclaimed and waved over there. Grabbing Genevieve’s wrist, she hurried towards Lucas, saying, “Professor Simpson, we’re late! We didn’t mean to waste your time, did we?”
“Of course not, Ms. Quinn. Nice to see you again.” Lucas smiled, gentle and polite.
He turned to the other students and said, “My friends are here. See you in the classroom later.”
Although everyone was regretful, they still waved their hands happily and left.
Selene took Lucas’s arm and winked at Genevieve with a mischievous smile, saying, “Professor Simpson, since Genevieve is already your assistant, then let me be your secretary, And, we want you to treat us to dinner this
evening!”
Lucas smiled and said, “Ms. Quinn, I appreciate your offer to be my secretary, but I believe it might be a waste of your talents. However, I’m honored to treat you.”
His voice was musical.
Suddenly, a man came over and took Selene’s arm. He said as he walked, “Then, it would be okay to have me join you, would it?”
Irven winked at Selene with a smile.
He held Selene’s arm naturally.

But from a distance, it looked like two men were holding a woman hostage.

Furthermore, Irven was so quick that Selene struggled to keep pace with him. Unable to catch up, she reluctantly released Lucas’s arm and shook off Irven in exasperation.
“Mr. Lester, why are you here?” She wanted to test Lucas but didn’t expect Irven to come out halfway.
Irven said, “To join for a meal, of course.”
He glanced uncomfortably at Genevieve beside him.
Genevieve was pissed off when he talked about her. Irven regretted that he talked too much.
“Ms. Lawrence, l…” said Irven.
Before he could finish, Genevieve walked quickly to the front.
She didn’t want to talk to him.
Genevieve regarded Lucas’s friend as a friend.
But who knew he should say that to her? Genevieve had a feeling of being hurt.
Irven looked at Lucas for help.
Lucas smiled and said nothing.
Ms. Lawrence could have a temper as well, okay?
Selene couldn’t resist rolling her eyes at him. She felt no romantic attraction towards Irven and had a rather unfavorable impression of him.
Lucas took them to the office.
He gave Genevieve a bottle of milk and poured coffee for the others.
Genevieve could drink anything, so she didn’t care about it.
Selene couldn’t help but frown, “Professor Simpson is too biased!”
