Armand couldn't hold himself back and delivered another punch to Timothy's face.
He hollered angrily, “Timothy, you must be nuts! If Genev didn't coincidentally save Johanna in Xedells back then,
do you think you can get to know her and end up with her?”
“You want to settle scores, huh? Sure!” Timothy grabbed Armand's clothes and roared, “We've been friends for
decades. Have I ever denied helping you? If it weren't for me, would you still be together with Genevieve? If I hadn't
done everything I could to seek aid for Mandy, she would be dead by now! Even if my wife does owe Genevieve
one, I've returned the favor in full!”
They were squabbling when the sky turned dark without warning. It started raining, and both men were soon
drenched from the rain.
Timothy wiped the rain away from his eyes and choked out, “Armand, you have children, but so do I. My daughter

isn't even one year old yet. You love Genevieve, but so does Jack. She is also protected by Cooper and her
granddad, but my wife doesn't have anyone.”
He demanded, “My wife did nothing wrong. Why was she dragged into someone else's matter? Why does she have
to suffer? According to you, Zephyr is a sly man. He's also part of the ruthless mafia. Do you know how worried I
was after he kidnapped her? I'm afraid he'll hurt her. I'm literally going crazy imagining all the possibilities. All I want
is to get her back.”
Armand had no idea that it was Zephyr who brought Johanna away secretly.
After a short silence, he said, “I understand your feelings, but you can't use Genevieve to get Johanna back. I'll go to
Lostaria and get Johanna back instead.”
Timothy sneered, “This should be between Genevieve and Zephyr. Otherwise, Zephyr wouldn't have kidnapped Jojo.
You won't contribute anything by going there.”
He paused before asking, “Armand, do you think Genevieve's life is more important than my wife's?”
“I've never thought that way. Besides, you know what Genevieve went through!” Armand hissed as his eyes turned

red. “Do you want to force her off the edge again?”
Genevieve had been through a lot, so Armand would never allow her to fall into another bottomless pit.
Timothy stood there, his expression as cold as winter.
Armand wiped the rainwater off his face and belatedly realized Genevieve had climbed out of the car. Her hair and
clothes were partially wet as she gazed at them, sorrow evident in her gaze.
Without hesitation, Armand strode over to her, wanting to ask her to get into the car, but Genevieve flung her arms
around him and gave him a tight hug.
Armand lowered his head and hugged her quietly.
A while later, Genevieve released her grip and said to Timothy in a low voice, “I'll head to Lostaria and bring Jojo
back. Mando will send me to the airport.”
Timothy knew Genevieve was no longer hypnotized, so he got into his car and left.

Armand pulled Genevieve into his car and got a towel to dry her hair. However, Genevieve held his hand and
pressed it to her cheek.
Sensing the warmness of his palm, she asked with misty eyes, “Was it tough?”
“Of course not. I know you love me.” Armand inched nearer to kiss her. “I'm the one to blame as I didn't protect
you well.”
Genevieve shook her head.
She raised her hand to touch Armand's heart through his shirt. Her eyes turned red as she said, “After Jack learned
you didn't have long to live, he started scheming. He deliberately abducted me and locked me up so I'd grow to
hate him. He then gave his heart to you...”
Armand knew his heart wasn't Ethan's, but he didn't expect that it was Jack's.
“I owe him a lot, so when Lilian wanted Mandy, I allowed her to adopt Mandy,” Genevieve said sadly. “However, I
had no idea that Jack lay on the operation table willingly on the day I left Dartan.”
Genevieve broke down, tears streaming down her cheeks. “He's so cruel to use his own life to make me owe him a
favor that can never be returned. That way, I can never forget him for the rest of my life.”
