Anthony was embarrassed and continued shamelessly, “If I were you, I would let you stay here for one night.”

He had made his point clearly.

Genevieve also understood him.

She couldn’t help sneering. “Unfortunately, you are not me. I won’t allow you to stay here.

You can go now.”

Anthony was silent and stood there with his head down.

Genevieve looked down at him from the stairs.

She thought, “What should I say?

‘This scene was a bit like the moment when I encountered the stray dog Goldie outside

the club.

‘Yeah, he’s like an abandoned stray dog.‘

Genevieve was happy at once.

‘But he can’t compare to Goldie,‘ she thought.

Genevieve snorted coldly and went upstairs, closing the door to sleep.

Listening to the heavy rain outside, she instantly calmed down.

Anthony stood there.

The maid didn’t dare to expel him. She looked at him cautiously and said, “Mr. Hoffman.”

Anthony paused and felt embarrassed, but he couldn’t leave.

He braced himself and sat on the sofa. “She couldn’t bear to let me go out. You can go rest, I’ll manage on the sofa for the night.”

He loosened his collar and noticed the wool blanket Genevieve had left on the sofa. He

felt it was soft and cozy.

There was her faint fragrance on it.

His gloomy heart calmed down instantly.

Ignoring what the maid thought of him, he fell asleep on the sofa till the morning came.

‘How could he sleep so well?‘ Genevieve thought.

When Anthony woke up, he saw Genevieve folding her arms and frowning at him.

Selene also smiled. “Mr. Hoffman, you are so shameless.”

Genevieve frowned. “Indeed.”

‘Anthony used to be a person who cared about his image. But why has he become

shameless now?‘ Genevieve thought.

Anthony was nervous and continued to pretend to sleep with his eyes closed.

Genevieve sneered, “Since he hasn’t woken up yet, why not take a basin of cold water and

pour it on Mr. Hoffman to make him sober?”

“Okay, I’ll get it right away,” Selene heckled.

As soon as she finished her words, Anthony immediately pretended to wake up and opened his eyes in a daze. “Why do you get up so early? Why am I here?”

Selene couldn’t help but burst into laughter. “Mr. Hoffman, your acting skills are really

terrible.”

Anthony didn’t feel embarrassed after being seen through.

He thought, ‘Since I’ve already thrown caution to the wind, why bother saving face?”

Anthony looked at Genevieve’s face.

Fortunately, she didn’t show any sign of anger. She was as cold as usual.

He was relieved.

He rubbed his hair, pursed his lips, and said, “I’ll pay for it.”

Genevieve blurted out, “100,000 dollars.”

“What?” Anthony looked up in surprise.

Selene immediately echoed, “Look, he’s quite mean.”

Anthony looked at Selene coldly and gritted his teeth. “How can you ask for so little

money?”

Genevieve smiled and said, “Then 250,000 dollars.”

She went out humming a song to herself.

Everyone would be happy if they could make 250,000 dollars so easily.

Anthony followed Selene.

Selene was about to say something sarcastic when Anthony suddenly said, “Ms. Quinn, the lawyer will contact you today. You should be mentally prepared for the prosecution.”

Selene instantly pursed her lips, forgetting that Anthony had something to hold over her.

She curled her lips and walked to the passenger seat of the car.

Anthony sat proudly next to Genevieve in the backseat.

Genevieve frowned and looked at him. “Who allows you to get in the car?”

“I’ll pay for it,” Anthony replied.

He took out his cell phone and transferred 400,000 dollars to Genevieve’s account.

Genevieve pursed her lips. After hearing the notification of the money arriving, her expression eased a little.

Although he didn’t do it willingly, Genevieve thought she should take advantage of him if

she could.

But on the way, she looked at Anthony from time to time and hesitated.

Anthony showed his superior profile calmly.

With deep–set eyes and a smooth jawline, from the side, this angle reveals his flawless.

features.

Anthony listened to Genevieve reminding him in a low voice, “Anthony, you know what?”

Anthony tilted his ear slightly and approached her, intending to listen to her whisper.

His heartbeat was a little fast.

could still hear it clearly.

She said, “You have eye boogers.”

In an instant, Selene couldn’t hold back her laughter and trembled all over.

The driver was also trying to suppress his laughter and make himself composed.

Only Anthony’s face darkened, and his heart plummeted.

He was cold and domineering. How could he have eye boogers?

Genevieve sent him back to his place and then asked the driver to turn around.

The money he paid was worthwhile for him.

Selene chatted and laughed all the way.

She received a message on her phone.

She glanced at it and raised her eyebrows slightly. “Well, isn’t that a surprise?”

“What happened?” Genevieve asked.

“Robbin’s lawyer said that she’s willing to withdraw the lawsuit and pretend this never

happened,” Selene replied.

Genevieve thought for a second.

Maybe what she had said in the Simpson family yesterday worked.

Genevieve smiled and asked, “So, do you agree?”

Selene blurted out, “I don’t agree. She wronged me and wasn’t she supposed to withdraw

the lawsuit?

“But how can I pretend nothing had happened?

“I want her to apologize to me.

Selene said angrily and called the lawyer directly, “It’s no use withdrawing the lawsuit. I

want her to apologize to me in person, or I will sue her for false accusation.”

Selene was famous for being unforgiving.

The lawyer knew what she meant and went to negotiate with Robbin’s lawyer.

Genevieve smiled and didn’t tell her what happened yesterday.

“Did you get your investment?” Genevieve asked.

Selene frowned slightly, “Initially, things were going smoothly, but when Aiden entered the competition, some of our interests overlapped with his. With his presence, the other party leaned more towards Aiden’s influence.”

“I’m afraid it won’t work this time.”

She sighed. There was nothing she could do about it.

After all, the Quinn family was going downhill.

Anyone would think the Campbell family was more promising.

Genevieve paused and said, “It’s okay. If you can’t get the money, I will invest in you.”

Selene comforted her with a smile. “Don’t worry. Our other projects are going well.

“Those were non–overlapping competitions. With the strength of the Quinn family, there was no pressure to get it.

Genevieve went to the company, and Selene took a day off. She went to play with

Genevieve.

The bag she left behind was also sent to Aroma Delights.

She was much happier when she finally got it back.

Selene was a natural optimist.

Soon she received a call from her lawyer saying that Robbin agreed to apologize to her in

person.

Robbin arranged to meet at a relatively upscale restaurant, insisting that Selene must

grace

her with her presence.

Selene was quite surprised.

She didn’t expect Robbin to give in so easily.

At that moment, judging by her demeanor, it seemed like unless one of them backed down, there would be no resolution.

Selene curled her lips and told Genevieve, “Come with me. I’m afraid she will bully me.”

Genevieve curled her lips. “I’m afraid she would be lucky if you don’t bully her. How can she bully you?”

Selene muttered in a low voice, “I’m not familiar with this,place. I am worried.”

‘She really values her life,‘ Genevieve thought.
