My Husband Is a Gary Stu

“She's not a sitting duck who would accept being at the mercy of anyone without retaliating.” Genevieve noticed the fury and menace in Zephyr's eyes when she met the man's gaze.

“This is strange. I didn't know that you get angry too.” Genevieve smiled before continuing, “It's not only your men who wouldn't be able to escape but you as well.”

She looked toward the clock that was hanging on the wall. Judging by the time, the woman knew that the ship had already sailed far from the harbor and that the captain should have already left via a speedboat.

Besides, the countdown had already started ten minutes ago.

Realization suddenly hit Zephyr when he noticed the peaceful look on Genevieve's face. The man's expression darkened before he drew out his gun and fired a shot at Genevieve's chest. Then, he left hurriedly.

Genevieve fell off her chair as blood gushed out from the wound on her chest and spilled onto the floor.

Given the large blast radius of the explosion, it would be impossible for Zephyr to escape.

While Genevieve was drifting in and out of consciousness, she heard someone calling her name. The voice sounded urgent, and it was a voice that she would never forget.

When she opened her eyes, she saw Armand. His shoulders had been shot, and blood was flowing out of his wound.

Genevieve did not expect to see the man in Lostaria and was even more surprised that he was on the cruise ship. She guessed that he had bumped into Zephyr, and the two men had gotten into a gunfight.

Genevieve fixed her gaze on Armand's face and lifted her hand with her remaining energy. When Armand saw that, he grabbed her hand and brought it to his face, kissing it gently and lovingly.

Genevieve moved her lips and seemed as if she wanted to say something. However, she was bleeding so much that she did not have any energy left to speak. The woman turned pale gradually, and her eyes started losing focus.

Genevieve loved Armand so much. She wanted to grow old with him and watch their two children grow up.

She wanted to tour the world with him.

Armand knew what Genevieve wanted to say and kissed her lips before saying gently, “I love you too. Darling, don't be scared. I will be here with you.”

On the surface of the dark and cold ocean, a speedboat was seen sailing at full speed toward the cruise ship.

All of a sudden, the cruise ship that was silently drifting on the sea exploded. The next instant, fiery flames lit up the sky, illuminating the surrounding darkness. The impact of the blast was so powerful that the speedboat was almost overturned.

The helmsman immediately gripped the steering wheel and steadied the boat.

After Frank and Sally, who were on the speedboat, regained their balance, they looked toward the direction of the blazing fire.

Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was filled with dreadful silence.

Looking at the cruise ship being reduced to ashes in the explosion, Sally said softly, “She intentionally sent me away because she had planned to perish together with Zephyr. The letter she made me deliver to the bookshop was just a blank piece of paper.”

The woman had promised Cooper that she would bring Genevieve back safely, but she was tricked by Genevieve.

Frank did not expect Genevieve to pull such an ultimate move and gazed silently at the ocean, which was gradually falling back into darkness. Just then, he felt a vibration in his pocket.

The man took out his phone and saw a scheduled e-mail from Genevieve.
