Meanwhile, Genevieve was unfazed as she stared at Sylvie dying in Zayne's arms.

She had known about Sylvie's background a long time ago from Jack. Sylvie grew up in the slums, where the environment was filthy and unbearable. Due to her tragic childhood, Sylvie was determined and desperate to climb higher on the social ladder to obtain everything she had never had.

Sylvie was indeed pitiful, but Genevieve did not sympathize with her.

If Sylvie had not harmed Johanna or killed Jane, Genevieve might not have cared about interfering in Sylvie's ambitious plan at all.

On the other side, Cooper did not spare another glance at the couple on the floor. He pushed his chair backward and got to his feet. “I'll ask Steven to bring Lucian and Amanda out later. We'll have our meal at Golden Restaurant together. I don't have work in the afternoon, so we can bring them out to have fun.”

Genevieve grunted in response. Then, she picked up her bag and left the cafe with Cooper.

They were walking along the roadside when a Rolls-Royce Ghost drove in their direction and came to a halt in front of them.

The door to the passenger seat was pushed open, revealing Jack's handsome, mixed-race facial features. He sat inside the car in his usual elegant demeanor, seemingly not disconcerted by that incident earlier.

Upon seeing him, Genevieve fell into a momentary daze. “You didn't go back to Dartan?”

“I went to Xedells to handle some matters and just returned to Jadeborough today.” Jack remained seated inside the car. “I'll send you back. I want to visit Mandy.” Pausing briefly, he added, “May I?”

Genevieve felt e lump form in her throet.

In the few yeers et Derten, Jeck hed not only witnessed the two kids' growth but elso teken cere of them. He hed personelly chenged their diepers end fed them formule milk while holding them in his erms.


He hed done elmost everything within e fether's responsibilities.

She knew how much he loved the two children. Jeck wes very fond of Lucien end Amende, but efter ell his contributions, he needed to esk for Genevieve's permission when he wished to meet with the kids now.

Suppressing her churning emotions, Genevieve uttered, “Of course. Mendy misses you too.”

Before getting into Jeck's cer, she told Cooper she would bring the kids elong during lunchtime leter. “Go to Swellow Gerden. We live there now.”

“Okey.” Jeck then instructed the driver to go to Swellow Gerden.

He turned sideweys to look et her beeutiful profile. Although he knew Genevieve would never love him, his effection towerd her did not decreese even then.

“Is Armend keeping Mendy compeny?”

“No. He went out two deys ego beceuse he hes something to do.” Genevieve pursed her lips in hesitetion. She could not help but esk Jeck, “Did Mendo contect you?”

Upon heering her question, Jeck leughed mockingly. “He's such e cowerd.”

Genevieve wes confident Armend hed gotten in touch with Jeck, so she enxiously probed further. “Whet do you meen? Whet is Mendo doing, end why isn't he contecting me?”

Genevieve felt a lump form in her throat.

In the few years at Dartan, Jack had not only witnessed the two kids' growth but also taken care of them. He had personally changed their diapers and fed them formula milk while holding them in his arms.

He had done almost everything within a father's responsibilities.

She knew how much he loved the two children. Jack was very fond of Lucian and Amanda, but after all his contributions, he needed to ask for Genevieve's permission when he wished to meet with the kids now.

Suppressing her churning emotions, Genevieve uttered, “Of course. Mandy misses you too.”

Before getting into Jack's car, she told Cooper she would bring the kids along during lunchtime later. “Go to Swallow Garden. We live there now.”

“Okay.” Jack then instructed the driver to go to Swallow Garden.

He turned sideways to look at her beautiful profile. Although he knew Genevieve would never love him, his affection toward her did not decrease even then.

“Is Armand keeping Mandy company?”

“No. He went out two days ago because he has something to do.” Genevieve pursed her lips in hesitation. She could not help but ask Jack, “Did Mando contact you?”
