My Husband Is a Gary Stu

Chapter 27

Chapter 27 The Pendant With A Secret Genevieve felt the heat under her palm was getting stronger, and she started to feel uneasy. “Y-You can think so if you want.” She thought sleeping with Armand was not a big deal since her life belonged to him. Looking at Genevieve closing her eyes and her long eyelashes trembling, Armand was amused. The faint tea scent made him breathe in deeply. After a few seconds, Armand moved away and let go of her hand. “You may leave.” Genevieve was stunned for a moment. Seeing Armand not making the next move, she hastily got out of the bathtub. Her heart was still pounding rapidly after she closed the bathroom door. She thought Armand wanted her, but it turned out it was not what she had thought. Genevieve stepped on the pants on the carpet when she was about to go out. She picked up the clothes, and a necklace dropped out from the shirt. It was a Tiffany’s necklace. She still thought it was a gift from Cooper that day. Genevieve never thought it was Armand’s.

The necklace dropped to the floor, and the pendant was opened. When Genevieve picked up the necklace, she saw a photo of a person in the half-opened pendant. Feeling curious, she wanted to open the pendant. Suddenly, someone snatched the necklace away. Armand came out of the bathroom. His lower body was wrapped with a towel, and there was water dripping down his hair. His expression was gloomy. “Get out!” With a cold voice, Armand ordered Genevieve to leave. “I saw it fall out, so I wanted to pick it up…” Genevieve explained. Seeing how intimidating Armand looked, she quickly put down the clothes and scurried off. She had worn the necklace by mistake last time, but Armand only took it back after seeing that. However, he seemed to have lost his temper this time. Genevieve wondered what was inside the necklace. The next morning, Genevieve went downstairs to have breakfast. Seeing Armand’s darkened

expression, she thought he was still mad about what had happened the night before. “I’m sorry, Mando.” Genevieve quickly apologized after pulling the chair and sitting down. “I saw the necklace fall to the floor… I didn’t mean to look at it.” Armand raised his head and looked at her, then he said indifferently, “No next time. Please don’t simply go into the master bedroom without my permission. Otherwise, I’ll ask Steven to arrange another place for you to stay.” After hearing his words, Genevieve mumbled, “You asked me to go upstairs last night. It’s not like I broke into the room.” Besides, the necklace isn’t broken. Why is he so angry? Even though Genevieve mumbled softly, Armand still heard her. His face darkened, and he said, “I asked you to come into the master bedroom. Did I allow you to walk around?” “Was entering the bathroom also considered as walking around?” Genevieve could not help but retort, “How could I serve you if I didn’t enter the bathroom?” “Wow!” Patrick, who was eating the oatmeal, raised his head with an innocent look on his face. Is it appropriate for me to be here and listen to their conversation? Then, he showed a terrified expression and said, “Armand, you’re flirting with your wife at the dining table this early morning. Is this suitable?” Armand shot Patrick a cold glare, then he put the fork on the table. “Mrs. Faulkner, Cooper wouldn’t have ruined your family if you have a silver tongue earlier.” Genevieve was rendered speechless. Armand’s cold mockery stabbed Genevieve like a dagger. She lowered her head and pursed her lips. She knew she was foolish and was blinded by love back then, making her lose everything after being schemed by Cooper. However, there was no need for Armand to keep reminding her of that. Armand’s cold glare turned soft after he saw Genevieve’s pale face. He pushed the chair and stood up. Taking the coat from the housekeeper, he took out a black card from the coat and put it on the dining table. “This card has no limit.” “It’s okay.” Genevieve shook her head. “I don’t use much money—” However, Armand cut her off before she could finish her sentence. “As the saying goes, you can asknovelbin

anyone to do anything for you with money. Moreover, I don’t want the outsiders to think my wife is poor.” While Genevieve was still in a daze, Armand had already stretched out his arms and put on the coat. The pants that were made of high-quality fabric covered his slender legs. Coupled with his noble and cold aura, he looked just like the rich heir from a wealthy family. While buttoning the enamel buttons, Armand said in a cold voice, “Central Group is recruiting people now. The translation department is in shortage of people. You can prepare your resume and send it to Steven if you want to give it a try.” Then, Armand glanced at Genevieve and continued, “You can also choose to stay in Swallow Garden.” “I want to try!” Genevieve quickly answered. She had thought a lot these two days, and she knew she could not always rely on other people. Besides, she did not want to stay in Swallow Garden all day. Genevieve had gone to the master bedroom the night before with the intention to find a chance to talk about this with Armand.
