Chapter 73 

Genevieve glanced at Cecilia, who was standing next to her. She pursed her lips as she said, “Someone is still waiting for you. You should go back.” 

Aiden clenched his fists tighter. His chest heaved with intensity. 

He finally twitched his eyebrows and turned away. 

What Selene had just said was enough to evoke strong emotional reactions from him. 

Selene might say more hurtful things if he kept talking. 

He felt utterly humiliated. 

As Aiden 

got 

wheel instead. 

into the car with Cecilia, he did not rush to start the engine. He punched the steering 

Cecilia was startled. 

Aiden was confused as he spoke, “I thought Tony had feelings for Rosalie, but I never expected him to keep standing up for that divorced woman. If he has feelings for Genevieve, why would he go through a divorce?” 

Cecilia held his hand and whispered, “Men’s possessiveness is at play. Mr. Hoffman will regard her as his own and naturally protect her as long as Ms. Lawrence refrains from remarrying.” 

“Is that so?” Aiden replied, his eyes flickering. 

Cecilia leaned against his shoulder and smiled. She asked, “Is this Ms. Quinn, your fiancée?” 

Aiden immediately clarified by saying, “Of course not. We only met once, as arranged by our families.” 

Cecilia continued, “I’m just worried that she’ll be upset when she finds out about me and Ethan. I shouldn’t have had Ethan in the first place, but I just wanted to raise him on my own. I would never have a child in my life if it were not for him. I don’t need official recognition. It’s enough for you to come and see me often.” 

Aiden frowned slightly and said nothing. He just stroked her hair and started the engine. 

Selene’s rashes had subsided, but instead of going home, she went straight to Genevieve’s condominium and stayed overnight. 

The next day, the two of them woke up to breakfast that had been prepared by the housekeeper, who was waiting for them to get up. 

Selene looked at the sumptuous breakfast, shaking her head and saying, “This is certainly Ms. Lawrence. It would be unusual if things weren’t extravagant.”

Genevieve smiled and said, “My mom arranged it. She is not comfortable with me living alone, so she hired someone to cook and clean, but they don’t stay overnight. She has given me plenty of 

space. 

Selene sighed with envy and said, “My mother just wants to hand me over directly to the man- without any disruptions. The Campbell family…” 

Genevieve frowned slightly and handed her a glass of milk as she said, “Your mom knows he has another woman and a child outside. How can she agree? According to Aiden’s mother, the child is not his. He just takes care of the child out of sympathy…” 

Selene rolled her eyes and said, “Who would believe that?” 

Genevieve lowered her gaze and shook her head, saying, “Forget it. You’re not cut out for too much entanglement.” 

They parted ways after finishing their meal. 

Genevieve headed to the company while Selene returned home. 

Shortly after Genevieve arrived at the office, Jasper knocked on the door with a new major production plan in hand. 

“Everything is ready, Ms. Lawrence. Mr. Gatsby’s side is also settled,” Jasper reported. 

Genevieve nodded and glanced at the plan. “Okay. Let’s proceed with this, she instructed. 

Soon after, the topic that had caused an uproar in online discussions a few years ago regarding the “Departure of the Prominent Director From Eagle Entertainment and the Mutual Termination of Relations resurfaced. 

The entanglement between Eagle Entertainment and Mackenzie had become an old, worn–out topic from several years ago. 

However, it took a surprising turn at that time. 

It all began when Eagle Entertainment released a groundbreaking photo that captured the handshake between Mackenzie and Genevieve at the opening ceremony of the film, causing an instant uproar. 

Shortly after, Mackenzie himself shared the same photo and added the word “reliable” before netizens could fully react. 

Then, everyone understood, and they all started leaving comments. 

[So Mr. Gatsby and Eagle Entertainment have reconciled? At first, the former director kicked Mr. Gatsby out, causing him to get angry and curse everywhere. We thought they’d never make up.] 

[The former director of Eagle Entertainment spread all kinds of rumors about Mr. Gatsby, controlling public opinion and the direction of capital. Mr. Gatsby could only work on low–budget

productions, but his reputation didn’t suffer. Genevieve has real insight.] 

[Looking forward to the new production. Only Mr. Gatsby can capture the essence.] 

The online discussion of their reconciliation was relentless. The buzz and attention far exceeded 

expectations. 

Sullivan was very pleased with the situation. 

He even went out of his way to ask Genevieve, “I’ve tried many intermediaries before, but Mackenzie never gave a face. How did you manage it?” 

Genevieve smiled and answered, “The producer of the TV station is Mackenzie’s brother–in–law. I asked Mackenzie to do a small favor for me through him, and since he didn’t refuse, I knew there was a chance.” 

“What kind of small favor?” Sullivan said, looking puzzled. 

Genevieve smiled mysteriously and replied, “Uncle Sullivan, I won’t tell you.” 

Sullivan’s smile froze, and he stared at her speechlessly. Then he said, “Your mom and Aunt Hailey are coming over at noon. Go have lunch with them.” 

Genevieve was stunned and asked, “Why me? Aren’t you going, Uncle Sullivan?” 

“I have a golf appointment, Sullivan replied. Then he chuckled and walked away. 

Genevieve was speechless. 

It was still early, and Genevieve left the office carrying some project documents that did not meet the qualifications. 

She handed them to Jasper on her way and then headed to the underground parking lot. 

However, while waiting for the elevator, she coincidentally ran into Finnley, a long–unseen. company shareholder, and another female colleague, Morgan. 

Genevieve gave them a nod and entered the elevator. 

They didn’t go out. Instead, Finnley, with a portly belly, glanced at Genevieve, sized her up from head to toe, and then said with a smile, “Ms. Lawrence, you’ve been with Eagle Entertainment a long time, but I haven’t seen you visit my office. Do you look down on me as a minority shareholder?” 

Genevieve suppressed her discomfort, naturally putting on a perfunctory smile, saying, “How could that be? Mr. Shelton has given me too many tasks, so I’m truly swamped. I’ll definitely visit when I have the chance.”

Finnley, seemingly oblivious to her words, smiled and said, “Why wait for another day when you can seize the day? Let’s go now. I’ll introduce you to an employee. Morgan is the project team leader. In fact, you can delegate many projects to her to share your workload.” 

Morgan walked over with a swaying figure and extended her hand to Genevieve as she greeted, “Ms. Lawrence, nice to meet you. I’m Morgan.”

Genevieve looked at her, shook her hand, paused for a moment, and asked curiously, “Ms. Scott, why haven’t I seen you at the mid–level meetings?” 

Morgan hesitated for a moment. Then she bit her lip and looked at Finnley. 

Finnley hurriedly explained, “She just joined the company recently, a graduate of Yaller University. With a high level of education and excellent skills, she’s worth promoting!” 

Genevieve nodded, understanding the slightly arrogant attitude she still carried from having just graduated from a prestigious university. 

Those were all common traits of returned scholars. 

However, she showed no emotion on the surface. She just smiled gently and said, “Indeed, such a talent is rare.” 

Finnley chimed in, “Since you also appreciate her, why not come to my office together? We can discuss taking on projects.” 

Genevieve paused and smiled euphemistically. She replied, “Sorry, I have lunch plans with someone. Next time, I can join you for coffee. Ms. Scott just graduated, so she should gain experience with projects for the time being. No rush to take on responsibilities.”
