Chapter 203

Genevieve watched as Goldie finished its meal and sobbed on her lap, clearly sad and aggrieved.

She gently patted its smooth head, feeling heartbroken, and comforted it, saying, “Goldie, I will avenge you. Just bear with me for now. When the chance comes, I’ll shave off his hair and let him taste it!”

Goldie responded with a loud burp, a sign of its agreement.

Genevieve then held Goldie in one hand and carried documents in the other.

Her bag was hung around Goldie’s neck, and it seemed happy to wear it, even puffing out its chest with pride.

Genevieve had purposely chosen a palm–sized bag that day, and Goldie loved it.

She first went to the company to send the documents Anthony had signed.

After all, the projects couldn’t afford any further delays, especially considering the possibility of unexpected

events.

Selene arrived at Lawrence Group right before Genevieve.

She was chatting with several handsome employees, flirting with them.

Genevieve came over and shot her a warning look.

“Wait for me inside next time. Don’t go flirting with my employees. Besides, he’s getting married soon,” she warned sternly.

Selene snorted coldly and rebuked, “If I could sway his decision of marriage with a few words, I would say it’s better for the wedding to be called off.”

She then entered Genevieve’s office eagerly and asked, “What happened between you and Anthony? Wait, what happened to Goldie’s fur?”

She stared at Goldie in the kennel and noticed that its head and neck were bald.

It looked dejected.

Goldie, on the other hand, avoided eye contact.

It was tired from crying and complaining.

Since it entered the company, Jasper’s assistants and secretaries were shocked to see it and weren’t as warm toward it as before, though Jasper went to hunt snacks and dog food for it as usual.

Goldie also became distant from others, except for Genevieve and Jasper.

After all, it needed to rely on them as it had lost its beauty.

Selene continued to scrutinize it and asked, “Who did this?”

Genevieve sighed and explained, “Anthony is allergic to dog fur. He didn’t want to take medicine every time he

came to my place, so he did that. What a cruel and unscrupulous man!”

Selene immediately noticed the point. “Do you two live together now?”

Genevieve froze, looking awkward.

‘We haven’t done anything out of line. I should try to be more natural,‘ she thought.

“Don’t worry. I’ll be fine,” Genevieve promised.

Selene frowned. “He’s a man. You…” She suddenly thought of something.

After years of friendship, Selene understood what Genevieve meant immediately.

She wanted to laugh in disbelief but held it back and said, “No way!”

Genevieve shrugged. “It’s true.”

Selene burst out laughing.

“Oh, my gosh. Does this mean Andrea will be a widow?” she joked.

Genevieve smiled coldly and countered, “It’s hard to say if she’ll even be able to marry him!”

Selene had a vague idea of what Genevieve wanted to do but didn’t verbalize it.

Instead, she gave a thumbs–up in approval.

Real besties were like that. When one knew the other was about to do something mischievous, they would offer their support and not be a hindrance.

After completing her work, Genevieve left with Selene to shop as the last trip was unsatisfactory.

This time, they purposely cleared the mall to avoid meeting someone they didn’t want to meet.

While watching the fashion show, Selene remembered something and said with a smile, “Did you know Mrs. Thomson complained to Quincey after that incident last time? She wanted Quincey to scold her son, but Quincey shot back at her with mockery and ridicule. It seems like Quincey doesn’t approve of this marriage either.”

Genevieve wasn’t surprised by it. She merely raised her eyebrow and said, “Quincey looks up to wealth. She would never appreciate the Thomson family’s background. Besides, Quincey knows I’m from the Lawrence

family. How could she dare to stand up for others?”

Selene shook her head and sighed. “Looks like Andrea is having a hard time maintaining her position as the

fiancée!”

Genevieve smiled coldly, thinking, ‘Besides, I want her to live in constant fear–make her lose what she cares about most and suffer miserably.‘

Returning her thoughts to reality, she remembered some news Samantha had told her.

“Are you getting engaged to Aiden?” Selene’s face stiffened when she heard that, and she fell silent.

“Why?” Genevieve never expected Selene to agree to it.

Selene looked down at the ground and smiled mockingly as she explained, “You know our circle well. People come together for the sake of interest and break up for the same thing. My mom wanted to work with the Campbell family long–term. I’m her only daughter and also the one who can help her.”

The Quinn family and the Campbell family were equally strong and reputable.

While the Campbell family boasted strong connections and backgrounds, Lorelai Quinn was equally capable.

With the two families working together, they could form a powerful alliance and achieve their goals.

Genevieve fell silent, speechless.

Though marriage of convenience was distasteful, it was often the most effective form of collaboration.

Furthermore, it ensured that no one from a different social class would infiltrate their circles.

That was evident from Quincey’s rejection of Genevieve when she was penniless.

After selecting their clothes, they requested home delivery as it wouldn’t be convenient to carry them around.

They got to a cafe, and Selene ordered two cups of long black.

“Let’s not talk about it. I don’t care about who I marry anymore. I’ll try to make it work with him, and if I can’t, I’ll take care of myself,” said Selene.

Genevieve then thought of the well–known scandal between Cecilia and Aiden. Once Selene married him, Genevieve knew she would be subjected to ridicule.

“Luckily, Cecilia’s child isn’t Aiden’s. Otherwise, Selene will have a hard time!” she thought, feeling sorry for

Selene.

Before she could speak, Selene looked out of the window and cursed through gritted teeth.

Genevieve was taken aback by it and looked in the same direction.

She spotted Aiden, whom she hadn’t seen for a long time, with a young lady pushing a stroller with a cute child

inside.

The woman bore a striking resemblance to Cecilia..

Selene looked at Genevieve and asked, “Do you think Cecilia’s child is truly not Aiden’s?”

Genevieve’s expression changed. “I don’t know.”

She was suspicious.

Selene–looked solemn. “She’s Cecilia’s cousin, raising the baby on her behalf,” she explained.

Meanwhile, she thought, ‘Why do I have to see such a dramatic scene?‘
