My Husband Is a Gary Stu

Who are you looking for?” the woman asked, looking slightly surprised to see Genevieve.

Genevieve saw the woman taking out her keys from her pocket and guessed that she might be the housekeeper.

“Mia is my mom. I just want to take a look at my grandparents' house,” Genevieve replied before showing the woman a few photos of her and her mother.

After verifying Genevieve's identity, the woman appeared to be more relaxed and opened the door for her to enter.

Genevieve got to know that the woman's last name was Roberts and that her mother had worked for the Quinn family previously. After the death of Old Mr. Quinn and his wife, Mrs. Roberts' health condition deteriorated and was no longer able to look after the property. As such, she ended up moving in with her brother. Mrs. Roberts and her family were currently living in the old bungalow as her son was studying in the area.

Mrs. Roberts' entire family stayed on the first floor. She had been taking good care of the property over the years and did not allow anyone to go upstairs to the second floor.

After knowing that Genevieve was there to look for her mother's belongings, Mrs. Roberts took Genevieve upstairs to the second floor.

Genevieve searched her mother's old bedroom and found a photo album which was kept in a drawer.

As the photo album was locked, Genevieve found a tool to pry open the lock. When she looked through the album, she saw that there were no childhood photos but only a few photos of her mother as an adult.

Just then, one special photo caught Genevieve's attention.

It was a photo of a man who was dressed in a black shirt rimmed with gold threads. He was leaning against the couch in a relaxed manner and had an imposing presence.

The man had well-sculpted features and a pair of deep-set purple eyes. He was cocking his eyebrows and had a cigarette in his mouth as he smiled at the camera.

The subtle smirk on his face, combined with his attractive features and refined appearance, added to his allure.

The reflection of the woman taking the photo could be seen in the man's clear purple eyes, which were filled with gentleness and affection.

Genevieve had visited many countries with her children previously and had encountered all sorts of people. However, she had not met anyone who had purple eyes.

Even though the man in her mother's photo album did not seem familiar to her, Genevieve was sure that he was a special person to her mother.

Most likely, he was one of her mother's ex-boyfriends.

As Genevieve's parents had both passed away and she was not interested in her mother's private affairs, she put the photo album back into the drawer after locking it. Then, she headed to her grandparents' room to continue her search.

However, after searching the entire house, including the storeroom, Genevieve was still unable to find a single photo of her mother from when she was a child.

As such, Genevieve approached Mrs. Roberts and asked, “Have you thrown anything away while tidying the house after my grandparents passed away?”

“I didn't remove anything other than some old clothes,” the woman answered.
