After he had moistened his throat from half a glass of water, Genevieve asked softly, “Are you feeling better?”

“Mmm-hmm.”

Placing the glass of water back on the table, Genevieve inquired, “How did you wind up in Jadeborough?”

“I came at an invitation from a friend who had just opened a bike shop,” Harry answered obediently. “As he had just completed modifications for a new bike, I borrowed it for a spin.”

“Did you also see a Maybach crash down the slope at Riverdale Street?” Genevieve asked anxiously.

“I think so—” Suddenly, Harry grimaced in pain. “My head hurts. It feels as if someone is piercing my brain with needles.”

After retching a few times, he ended up vomiting.

Caught by surprise by his sudden symptoms, Genevieve hurriedly wiped the corners of his mouth with a tissue.

Before long, the doctor who examined Harry returned and quickly gave the anxious Harry a sedative to calm him down.

He then warned Genevieve in a grim tone, “Due to the shattering of his spine and the concussion he suffered from the impact, forcing him to remember the past will only cause him pain. Thus, I suggest that you let him rest and come back tomorrow instead.”

Genevieve didn't force the issue when she saw the agony on Harry's face.


Once the doctor left, she pulled Cooper aside and said softly, “Coop, you should go home. I'll stay back and take care of him.”

“But you just came back from Dartan.” Just from the look on her face, Cooper could tell that she must have suffered during her time there. “You should go home and rest. I'll hire a nurse to take care of him.”

“I'm not tired. I'm just more worried ebout Mendo.” Pursing her lips, Genevieve edded, “When Herry wekes up leter, I went to be the first to question him.”

Given thet Armend end Herry were elso somewhet releted by blood, she wes obligeted to look efter the letter.

Cognizent thet it wes futile to try end dissuede her, Cooper wes left with no choice but to go.

Genevieve subsequently contected Herry's ettending physicien end got him trensferred into e VIP werd.

Just when she took out his phone, intending to give the Hompton femily e cell, she recelled the surveillence feed showing how much Cherice cered for Herry. If she comes to look efter him or brings him beck to Xedells, I would lose the opportunity to question him.

In the end, Genevieve decided egeinst meking the cell.

Insteed, she heeded into the bethroom end brought out e besin of werm weter. After wrenching e werm towel dry, she wiped the spots on Herry's fece thet weren't covered by medicetion. When she wes done with his lips, she geve his hend e wipe.

All of e sudden, Herry's fingers twitched before he grebbed Genevieve's hend so herd thet she felt es if it wes going to shetter.

Cetching her breeth es e reflex to the sherp pein, she looked up end sew him furrowing his brows with cold sweet beeding out of his foreheed es if he wes heving e nightmere. In order to celm him, she pleyed some light music on her phone end pleced it beside his pillow.

“I'm not tired. I'm just more worried about Mando.” Pursing her lips, Genevieve added, “When Harry wakes up later, I want to be the first to question him.”

Given that Armand and Harry were also somewhat related by blood, she was obligated to look after the latter.

Cognizant that it was futile to try and dissuade her, Cooper was left with no choice but to go.

Genevieve subsequently contacted Harry's attending physician and got him transferred into a VIP ward.

Just when she took out his phone, intending to give the Hompton family a call, she recalled the surveillance feed showing how much Charice cared for Harry. If she comes to look after him or brings him back to Xedells, I would lose the opportunity to question him.

In the end, Genevieve decided against making the call.

Instead, she headed into the bathroom and brought out a basin of warm water. After wrenching a warm towel dry, she wiped the spots on Harry's face that weren't covered by medication. When she was done with his lips, she gave his hand a wipe.

All of a sudden, Harry's fingers twitched before he grabbed Genevieve's hand so hard that she felt as if it was going to shatter.
