Chapter 240

Anthony pursed his lips. His voice sounded hoarse as he spoke. “Well, It takes a long time to heal.”

His gaze lifted up to Genevieve’s, the muscles in his throat tightening before he continued, “Just wanted to tell you that you should be looking out for me when we go on the show. I’m injured. Can’t handle the stress.”

Genevieve had barely sat down on the chair before she suddenly sprang back up. “Oh, please. Don’t be so dramatic. It’s just a leg injury. Are you saying your heart was hurt, too?” she taunted.

Anthony’s eyes flickered with resentment as he said, “Well, it’ll take a longer time to recover if I get stressed out. I got hurt trying to protect you. I don’t want you to say anything on the show that might hurt me.”

Genevieve was speechless. She looked at him in disbelief, and even Goldie rolled its eyes.

“Don’t try to guilt–trip me.” She scoffed. “I haven’t even blamed you for dragging me into this mess. Have some shame, will you?”

Anthony’s face turned pale, and suddenly, he clutched his chest, gasping for air.

Startled, Genevieve thought that he was having an attack and asked, “You’re having side effects?”

Hurrying over to him, she grabbed a cup of coffee and poured it into his mouth, hoping it would help.

The scalding hot coffee burned Anthony’s mouth. Convinced it was unintentional, he told himself to forgive her on the inside.

He coughed but finally stopped struggling to breathe, his complexion returning to normal.

Genevieve heaved a sigh of relief and sat back down across from him.

Anthony wiped the coffee stains off his clothes and took a deep breath of cool air to soothe his burning tongue.

Genevieve petted Goldie’s fur while casually saying, “There you go. I saved your life, so we’re even now. Besides, you have questionable morals. What else can hurt you?”

Anthony took a deep breath and looked at her with a complicated look. “Gen, I’m still hurting from the injury, you know!”

Genevieve’s hand froze. She looked up at him and said before getting up to leave, “If that’s all you have to say, I guess I’ll have to get going.”

But Anthony’s expression shifted, and he lowered his voice. “Gen, don’t you want to know who’s behind your friend’s company going bankrupt?”
