Chapter 140

The more Cooper thought of the past, the worse the pain in his chest was. His voice was low when heasked, “Genev, please?” “What’s there to discuss?” Genevieve sneered and fixed her hair which wasmessy from the wind. “About how you killed my parents? Or about how you stole Specter Corporationfrom me?” Cooper was silent, although he wanted to add something. He pursed his lips and felt a bittertaste in his mouth. The reason why we are now like this is my fault. I deserve this. “Cooper, pleasedon’t call me by that name anymore. It will only disgust me.” Genevieve looked at him with cold eyes,then took her luggage and left after telling Patrick, “Let’s go, Patrick.” Patrick took the other luggageand hurried behind her closely. Meanwhile, Cooper remained rooted at the spot silently. He watched asGenevieve cold-heartedly entered the airport and disappeared from his sight with a bitter smile on hisface. Unexpectedly, he was reaping what he sow. Christopher, Cooper’s assistant, waited for a whilelonger before he pushed the latter’s luggage forward and informed cautiously, “Mr. Sutton, yourluggage is here.” “Okay. Call me if there’s an emergency at the company.” Cooper’s voice was hoarseas he took the luggage, his eyes behind his glasses devoid of emotions. Christopher eyed Christopherand hesitated. “… Yes.” After passing Cooper the coat, Christopher could not hold it in and said, “Mr.Sutton, should I go to Xedells in your stead? I heard from others that Mr. Faulkner is still there, andXedells is under the Faulkner family’s influence. If you’re there, Mr. Faulkner will receive news.” Whenhe heard the reminder, Cooper lifted his head and glanced at Christopher. “Do you think Armand won’tknow I met that person? He has eyes everywhere, so he can get information easily.” “Then… Why doyou insist on going to Xedells?” Christopher was confused and reasoned, “This isn’t the first time youhad a scandal. If anyone releases pictures, our publicity team can suppress them. Eventually,everything will be forgotten since Ms. Hall is dead…” Christopher knew and kept in mind that Cooperwanted to find Erica. Therefore, he sent more people to different states to search for Erica.Unfortunately, she was dead by the time they found her. A little while after that, someone found Cooperand showed him a few photos. From them, it looked like he obtained many benefits from Erica’s death.Therefore, that person wanted to make a deal with Cooper. Christopher could not help but say, “Mr.Sutton, that person is related to the Faulkner family. It’ll be akin to making Mr. Faulkner your enemy ifnovelbin

you meet them.” “I’ll handle these matters. You don’t have to worry about them. Just take care of thecompany in my stead.” Cooper sounded solemn and impatient when he snatched his coat fromChristopher’s hand. Chills ran down Christopher’s spine, and he did not dare to utter any more words.After sending Christopher away, Cooper pushed his luggage into the airport. Once inside, he had anairline worker send it to the VIP lounge. He found a seat beside the window while waiting to board theplane. Cooper took out his phone and saw a beautiful smile greeting him once unlocking his screen.The female in the picture was smiling in the direction of the camera. Her eyes crinkled from the smile,and they were twinkling with stars. When Cooper hired people to take care of the Rachford family, allitems related to Genevieve were disposed of back then. However, he had been searching for them likecrazy ever since he came out of the police station. Nevertheless, everything related to the Rachfordfamily, including Genevieve’s things, was sent to the junkyard and incinerated. The picture he had nowwas one she took with his phone during their engagement. It had remained in his old phone’s storageand was the only thing left of their relationship. While he stared at that smiling face, he deftly touchedthe edge of the screen. The longer he stared, the more agony he felt, and remorse filled his mind. Heunderstood what Christopher meant and knew evidence from a dead person was invalid. However, hedid not want Genevieve to see those photos. Perhaps it was because of his selfishness that Cooperwanted to cooperate with that person. Maybe when Armand is ruined, Genevieve will come back to me.
