Regality Gardens was a well-known housing area in the city center. It was famous for its primeenvironment, excellent services, and home to many wealthy people and celebrities. Patrick drove to thesouth entrance of Regality Gardens and saw a man dressed in a suit standing by the roadside. Theman was looking around, and when he saw Patrick’s car, he quickly ran toward them. The man in a suitwalked toward the backseat and greeted Genevieve, who had lowered the car window and showed herface. “Ms. Rachford.” Genevieve asked Patrick to unlock the car, and the man got in. Listening toGenevieve and the man’s conversation, Patrick learned that the man was a realtor agent. He was thereto show her the houses. Soon, they reached the building at the back of Regality Gardens. The agentbrought Genevieve and Patrick to the 16th floor and showed them the large condominium. The largecondominium was elegantly decorated, with everything from an indoor pool to a home theatre. It wasthe kind that one could move in immediately. Patrick held on to Genevieve as they walked into thehouse. The latter sat on the couch, glanced around, and took out a card from her bag. “I’ll buy this.”“Sure.” As soon as the agent heard that, he quickly took out the agreement from his bag. The entirebuying process took only ten minutes. Patrick sent the agent out, and at the same time, the doctor thathe called had arrived at Regality Gardens. Since they could not get in, Patrick went down to fetch them.After the doctor entered the house, he lifted a bit of Genevieve’s wet skirt. Patrick stood next to thecouch. From his point of view, he could clearly see Genevieve’s exposed calves. Her skin was burntred, and almost none of her skin was intact. Judging by the seriousness of her calves, the burn on herthighs might have been even more severe. The doctor was still lifting her skirt, so Patrick turned aroundand clenched his fists tightly. “Ms. Rachford, your burnt injury is too severe.” As the doctor examinedGenevieve’s calves, he gasped. “You need to go to the hospital. Ointments are useless. Otherwise, it’llleave an unsightly, huge scar on your legs.” After hearing what the doctor said, Genevieve’s expressionwas calm, and her tone was composed. “So be it. Please apply the ointment for me.” The doctor did notsay anything after she spoke. He took the best ointment and applied it to both her legs. Once thedoctor was done treating her injuries, Patrick gave the medical personnel extra tips after sending thedoctor to Regality Gardens’ entrance. He saw Genevieve leaning against the couch while hugging a
pillow when he returned. Patrick secretly let out a sigh of relief as he noticed that she was not as paleanymore. The color had returned to her face. He recalled not seeing Armand when he went to theFaulkner residence earlier. As he fished out his phone, Patrick said, “I’m calling Armand.” He shouldknow that Genevieve has severe injuries on her legs. Furthermore, Patrick hoped Armand couldpersuade Genevieve to go to the hospital. Otherwise, it would be a problem if there were scars. “Noneed for that. Mr. Faulkner is busy too.” Genevieve stopped him before he could call Armand. Shelowered her eyes and said calmly, “It’s just injuries on my leg. I’m still alive.” Mr. Faulkner? Patrick wassomewhat taken aback when he heard Genevieve address Armand as “Mr. Faulkner” since she usuallycalled him “Mando.” Furthermore, he realized that something was amiss with Genevieve after leavingthe Faulkner residence. “Patrick, please go back to Swallow Garden and bring Maria here,” Genevievesaid, looking exhausted while leaning her head on the pillow. Patrick was momentarily stunned andasked, “You’re planning to stay here and not return to Swallow Garden?” “Yes. I’ll return when Mr.Faulkner needs me, but I’ll stay here when he doesn’t.” It seemed like Genevieve did not want to talkwith him as she took her phone from the couch. “All right. I’ll go pick her now.” Looking at her in thatstate, Patrick could not help but soften his tone. “Genev, is there anything that you would like to eat?”She did not answer but turned her head to look at the scenery outside the floor-to-ceiling window.Patrick massaged his temples. When he left, he could not help but wonder what happened toGenevieve when she was at the Faulkner residence where she suffered such a severe burnt injury.novelbin
