The Impressive Genevieve Rachford Xedells was close to the sea, so the weather in all four seasons
was warm. However, there had been typhoons recently, so the temperature had dropped drastically.
The next day was only fifty degrees Fahrenheit—it was freezing. Fortunately, Genevieve had bought a
thick jacket and scarf when she shopped with Jane the day before. Hence, Genevieve put them all on
before heading out with Jack after breakfast. The Faulkner family had a plot of land for their family
cemetery, and that was the place where all the Faulkners were buried after death. When the car
reached the Faulkner family’s cemetery, Genevieve turned to look out of the window. There were
countless luxury cars outside, and some of the cars had a piece of white cloth tied to their rear view
mirrors. Genevieve then came down from the car with Jack before walking up the stairs. Soon, they
arrived by a grave. That was Cesar’s grave.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe names of his three wives were already carved on his gravestone. Once they were dead, they
would be buried alongside him. The host and the staff members were all busy. Moreover, there were
many people surrounding the grave, and they were all big shots of Xedells. They had all taken time to
attend Mavis’ funeral. Many of the attendees had a piece of white cloth tied around their arms. There
were old and young people among the group of attendees. Genevieve guessed that they were
members of the Faulkner family. While she was silently scanning her surroundings, Samantha, who
was chatting with others, spotted them and quickly walked over. “Mr. Valentine.” “My condolences.”
Jack shook her hand before putting an arm around Genevieve’s shoulders. “This is my wife, Genevieve
Rachford.”
Samantha turned to Genevieve and said, “Ms. Rachford, you’re quite impressive, aren’t you?” Just as
she thought that Genevieve was going to stay in Central Group and be with Armand, Genevieve
suddenly and swiftly lunged into the arms of Jack Valentine, the gifted director. The woman had
married thrice, and every one of her husbands was some kind of terrifying figure. Samantha thought
that Genevieve was really impressive to have achieved that. Nevertheless, Genevieve did not feel
uncomfortable upon hearing Samantha’s words. She smiled and replied, “You’re too kind.” As
Samantha had to greet the guests of the funeral, she only talked with Jack for a while before leaving.
When it was time for the start of the funeral, another guest arrived. The expressionless man was
wearing a black suit with a piece of white cloth on his left arm. It was as if the man could perfectly blend
into the cold air around them with his icy demeanor.\
Anyone who came close to him would start to shiver, and it would not be because of the cold weather.
The guests and the Faulkners all turned to look at Armand with varying expressions on their faces.
However, no one, including Peter, dared to say a single word about his presence. The man’s unfazed
expression and domineering demeanor made everyone wary of him. Once the ceremony was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcompleted, Mavis’ urn was put into the grave and sealed up. The host then guided the guests to step
forward for their prayers before putting the flowers in their hands in front of the gravestone. After putting
down the lily, Genevieve noticed Jack staring at the gravestone intently. The lily in his hand nearly
snapped in half, and animosity was pouring out of his eyes. Genevieve tugged at his sleeve.
Immediately, Jack returned to his calm self and put the flower in front of the gravestone before walking
to the side with Genevieve. Jack mocked, “How lucky Mr.
Faulkner is to have three wives. When they die, they’ll still be with him, and he’s enjoying his time even
in the afterlife.” Genevieve lowered her eyes and quietly asked, “How many more are you going to kill?”
“Genev, I’m no executioner; don’t describe it as ‘kill’,” Jack said as he adjusted the scarf around her
neck. He then hunched over and whispered in her ear, “He has to pay off his debt.” “He’s dead,” she
said. “Yes, he’s dead, so someone else has to do it for him instead.” A faint smile appeared on Jack’s
attractive face. “Don’t worry. I won’t break the promise I made to you.” As the cold wind brushed
against her face, Genevieve’s heart sank. Ever since Jack announced his decision and rapidly set up a
car accident to kill Cesar’s first wife, Genevieve realized how insane and cruel he could be. Yet, there
was nothing she could do about it.
