Chapter 254
Submitting To My Billionaire Ex-Wife
Chapter 254
Genevieve couldnât feel any warmth although she was under the sun.
All she felt was coldness and chill.
Louis was smiling warmly but his hazel eyes were shrouded in coldness, casting a faint shadow.
He didnât pursue her even after returning, showing her full respect and courtesy.
But he would only give her this kind of respect with the promise that she would be his sooner or later.
Genevieveâs heart sank. She frowned at him.
She wasnât sure whether Jeffreyâs disappearance had anything to do with him, but she didnât want to act rashly.
âLouis, do I need to report everything to you?â She sneered because she felt disgusted.
Louis looked back at her indifferently. âIâd like to hear it if I can.â
Genevieve pursed her lips and stared back at him silently. Then, she turned to leave.
Louis suddenly grabbed her by the arm, laughing. âAlright. You still have a bad temper.â
He tightened his grip a bit. âOpen the car door and have a look. There is a gift for you.â
His voice softened, with only a bit of coaxing.
Genevieve halted in her tracks and looked back as if she saw something through the tinted glass.
Her heart skipped a beat.
There was something in the car that felt dangerous but attracted her attention.
he took a deep breath and walked over nervously.
he opened the door and her face stiffened. She was stunned to see Lauraine tied up in the back of the car.

With a tape on her mouth, Lauraine could only whimper with bloodshot eyes.
She sat there flustered, with her feet tied behind the seat while her hands tied behind her back. She couldnât
move at all.
She glared at Genevieve with an unreconciled expression. Even if her mouth was gagged, she started cursing the
moment she saw Genevieve.
Fortunately, her mouth was muffled.
Genevieve remained silent. Louis, who was exuding an icy aura, stood beside her and asked coldly, âAre you happy? She tried to kill you but youâve never taken any action. Was it because sheâs Anthonyâs sister?â
Genevieveâs heart skipped a beat. The fear of the moment she had fallen into the sea resurfaced. Her whole body was shaking.
âNo,â she denied.
Lauraine still wanted to harm her at this moment. Genevieve had reasons to retaliate but she didnât know how to
do it.
She didnât have sufficient evidence. The police might leave things hanging with the influence of the Hoffman family.
Lauraineâs status couldnât allow her to be like Andrea who ended up being crazy.
Genevieve suddenly got lost in her own emotions but Louis chuckled. âThatâs good. Iâll help you then.â
He went around her and closed the door. Then, the driver started the car and drove away.
When another black Maybach appeared, Genevieve realized that he had come prepared.
When the door was opened, Louis didnât give her a chance to refuse. âGet in.â
Genevieve unconsciously got in the car, feeling a little weird.

days ago and just saw the news online. What show did you appear in?â
Genevieveâs heart trembled slightly.
She was worried that Louis would find out about her cooperation with Anthony.
It turned out to be the muchâhyped variety show.
She breathed a sigh of relief. âItâs just a variety show for divorced couples. The producer is my childhood friend and the show needs some hype. Iâm doing a favor.â
There was no emotion in Louisâ eyes. He just smiled. âAnd Mr. Hoffman is willing to waste time doing this with
you.â
Genevieve frowned slightly. Only then did she remember Lauraine. âWhy is she in your car?â
Louis chuckled disdainfully and mocked, âI donât know who leaked my whereabouts. She waited for me in my car but was arrested by my men. I think both of us almost died in her hands. We shouldnât let her go. Youâll be happier if I give her to you. That is what she is worth, isnât it?â
He spoke lightly, with a different kind of sharpness and tranquility.
He still remembered how Genevieve had fallen into the sea.
He felt that she should return the favor but she had only dealt with Andrea, leaving Lauraine behind.
It suddenly occurred to Genevieve that Yvette was the only one who knew Louisâ whereabouts and had the
chance to tell Lauraine about it.
With Yvetteâs hot temper, she would certainly make Lauraineâs life miserable.
But what she didnât expect most was that Louis dared to tie Lauraine up openly and bring her as a gift!
She felt a little uneasy. âWhere are we going?â
Louis glanced at her smilingly. âThe casino.â
Genevieve was surprised. Since he let her know directly, she was more at ease.

This casino was not a real casino, but just a place for recreation,
When they got there, Genevieve was a little surprised. This place was an inconspicuous compound in the
downtown area.
She used to go there with Selene. It was a private kitchen. The dishes were quite distinctive, so she had to make an appointment.
However, this kind of private kitchen was not uncommon. There were actually more private kitchens than high- end clubhouses. Eventually, Genevieve and Selene forgot about it.
As soon as they got out of the car, someone opened the door in the courtyard.
A middleâaged man in a suit greeted them. âMr. Fallon, Ms. Lawrence, welcome!â
Although the exterior was not very eyeâcatching, the interior was decorated with great effort.
Statues of ancient gods were placed on the premises and an elegant fountain was in the lobby. The place looked exquisite.
âWould you like to eat first, orâ¦â The manâs voice trailed off but Louis got the idea.
He glanced at Genevieve and stated smilingly, âLetâs look at the person first.â
As he spoke, he grabbed Genevieveâs wrist and cheekily whispered in her ear, âYou know, this was originally Anthonyâs place.â
Genevieve looked up abruptly and saw a smirk flash across his eyes.
She suddenly understood that Louis was doing this on purpose.
It would be a disgrace to deal with Lauraine in Anthonyâs place!
Seeing them whisper, the middleâaged man stepped back tactfully and kept a distance.
Genevieveâs expression changed slightly. Her hatred toward Lauraine suddenly disappeared.
She felt that Louis was unfamiliar and terrifying.

Chapter 254
She was desperate to know if Jeffreyâs disappearance had anything to do with him.
She wanted to ask but she swallowed back her question..
She could only wait and see for now.
There was a hidden door behind one of the statues that not many people would pay attention to.
Louis led her through it and down the stairs. There was no darkness or terror like she had imagined.
Instead, there was a bright orange glow. The wall lamps were retroâstyle, which looked very elegant.
It was another world behind the closed door.
O
There were just a few card tables, chairs, and billiards tables. The environment was clean without any peculiar smell. It wasnât noisy too. Everything shouted elegance.
Those scions who went to clubhouses to gamble would be watched closely but it was the opposite here.
They didnât come here purely for gambling but for entertainment or business interests.
Genevieve scanned around and saw a closed door.
Whimpering sounds could be heard from inside.
Lauraine was in the room.
