My Husband Is a Gary Stu

Chapter 217 The Secret Died With Him

someone as evil as Marilyn? Why must you go to the extent of asking me to protect the baby in her stomach?”“All you have to do is follow whatever I say,” Armand said as he leaned back in his chair, his eyes grim.Timothy scoffed, “So I’m your friend only when you need something from me? Now that I’m asking you something, I’m a stranger, am I? If you don’t say anything, I’m going to assume that you still have feelings for Marilyn!”Armand sat there in silence.A long time later, he took his phone out of his pocket and clicked on something before showing it to Timothy.“You wanted to know why, right? Look.”Timothy looked down at the picture on the screen.What is that?When he saw the words in the picture, he looked up at Armand in shock.The latter sat there expressionlessly, and when he spoke, it was with barely any emotion in his tone.“Samuel knew everything at that time, and yet he chose to die for me. Before he died, he told me to take care of Marilyn and her child. So no matter what she does, I can’t lay a finger on her. And more importantly, I have to make sure her child is born safely.”Armand had never told Timothy anything before, and he had always gone along with everything that Marilyn had done.

It’s already good enough that I have a few cans in here,” Timothy said as he rolled his eyes and passed him the can he was originally holding. “There’s more than half in here. Want it?”Armand gave him a disgusted look and pulled his hand back. “Who the hell wants to drink your saliva?”“You used to drink out of my bottle back when we were students! Stop acting all pure and untainted,” Timothy said with disdain. He lifted his can and drank a mouthful.Weirdly enough, the alcohol seemed to have wakened Timothy up.He frowned and said, “Wait. But all of that has nothing to do with marrying Genevieve. Why did you drag her into this?”“I have a lot of stuff to do back at the company. I’ll be going now. Take good care of her for me,” Armand said, ignoring Timothy’s question.He stood up and left right after saying that.Timothy looked at the closed office door. He
