Anthony was her husband, and in the two months since he had gone away on a business trip, this was the first time he had taken the initiative to call her.

“Is that child yours? Or is he a product of Anthony’s infidelity?”

Recently, there had been rumors of Anthony having an illegitimate child, but Genevieve did r not believe them.

“My husband is very busy. We have no children of our own yet, and he certainly does not have an illegitimate child. Those are just rumors,” she answered. “We love each other very much, and I trust him.”

Three years of being married to Anthony had trained her to handle these unwelcomed questions and situations well.
