Genevieve received a notice from her superior that all departments would stagger their off days for a team-building event.

As it was her first time attending a team-building event, she was a little surprised by the announcement.

Genevieve called the department and had them send her a list of all their names. She had just gotten off the call when her phone started ringing on the desk.

Since she wasn't actively dealing with anyone at the moment, Genevieve answered the call, only to hear Charlotte yelling angrily, “F*ck! Do you know why your car broke down last night? It was because of that b*tch Beatrix! She hired a bunch of men to teach me a lesson! Oh, in case you didn't know, Beatrix is Eurydice's cousin. She's the one who stole my first love.”

“Yeah, I know who she is. Those men revealed that information themselves, didn't they? You want me to help you teach Beatrix a lesson?” Genevieve knew who Beatrix was. She just didn't expect that Beatrix was the one who hired those men.

“No. That b*tch came and apologized to me. She actually asked me to forgive her! Can you believe it? I want nothing but to tear her to pieces! There's no way I can forgive her! Still, Beatrix has the Gaudette family backing her up, so there wasn't much I could do to her. In the end, I let her off with a mild punishment. Your man sure is something else, Genevieve!”

She knew full well that Beatrix had only apologized because she was afraid of Armand.


Charlotte gave Genevieve a few kisses over the phone and said in a childlike manner, “Thank you so much for the help, Genevieve! I'll be sure to treat you to a meal!”

Genevieve felt goosebumps after hearing that and quickly hung up the phone.

Armand only returned to the office when it was almost time to get off work. Genevieve quickly closed the door behind her and massaged his shoulders.

Armand turned around to look at her as he asked, “You need something from me?”

“No, not at all! I just wanted to give you a massage because you looked tired, that's all! I can't believe you'd think I have a motive for treating you well!” Genevieve replied with a pout while massaging his temples.

Armand let out a chuckle and leaned back in his chair.

After helping him relax, Genevieve brought him a cup of coffee and gave him a quick peck on the lips. “You look so handsome, Sir!”

“Come on, out with it. What is it that you want? You want me to go shopping with you? Or did you find a nice place for dinner?”

Genevieve shook her head and buttoned up his shirt collar as she asked, “I think the superiors like you very much. Do you think you can become the mayor someday?”

Armand shot her a glance. “You really want me to become the mayor?”

“I wouldn't say that. I just don't want others to bully me, you know? The more power you hold, the safer I feel.”
