Chapter 207

Genevieve didn’t drive, so she had the driver drop her off at the entrance before calling it a day.

As soon as the driver left, she noticed a black Bentley parked under the swaying shadows of trees by the roadside, blending into the night like a silent beast of steel.

In the next moment of her discovery, the lights suddenly illuminated the entire street.

Golden rays cascaded onto the ground, seemingly greeting her arrival.

She couldn’t see who was inside the car, but she could vaguely discern the dark silhouette.

A faint tremor stirred within her heart as she contemplated, ‘Could Anthony unexpectedly harbor favoritism and warmth? But everything feels so fake. Throughout three years of marriage, he has never once taken the initiative to pick me up. And now, he suddenly appears? Isn’t this ridiculous?‘

Genevieve’s chest felt as if it was stuffed with cotton, and just as the sensation of being touched surfaced, it was smothered by a suffocating heaviness.

She masked her deep sentiments with a soft smile as the car pulled up.

Anthony drove there himself. Clad in a black coat, his tall, straight figure emerged from the vehicle with a noble grace, somehow warming the chilly air.

The passenger door swung open, and Anthony stood beside her. “Feeling touched, Genevieve? I’ve come to pick you up,” he said.

‘He actually showed up!‘ Genevieve exclaimed inwardly. ‘If my parents were to step out now, they’d definitely see us,‘ she mused further.

But she no longer cared. Who wouldn’t want to indulge in a bit of madness on an exhilarating night like that?

Genevieve snapped back to reality, smiling as she leaned against his shoulder, her voice gentle and tender as she stated, “Of course, I’m so touched, Anthony. Why are you so good to me?”

That was how the pretense of innocence and sweetness played out. Even for minor matters, he had to be lauded as though he had performed a grand feat.

Anthony’s pleased expression was evident. A faint smile lingered on his lips as he reached back to pinch her cheek, his eyes shimmering softly as he uttered, “Get in the car.”
