Armand whispered, “You are right. He was indeed cowardly.”
“We were born of the same mother, but you had fine clothes and good food in the Faulkner residence,
and you went to the best schools…” Jack jabbed a finger at his own chest. “But inc? I had to watch that
drunkard assault my mother every day!”

“1 told my motlicr cliat the man was dead, and she didn’t have to be afraid anymore, but she died…”
Jack’s eyes stung as hic gritted his teeth and went on. “Do you know how she died? Those men
recorded a video and posted it online, and everywhere she went, people pointed at her, talking about

showing
It was also her birthday.

was nowhere to be found, but he soon discovered the letter she had left on the table.
The next day, two policemen came for him, asking him to go to the hospital to identify a corpse.

However, he bumped into Genevieve later oni, wliereupon she reached out to catch hold of him.
showing him that there still existed beauty to live for in this world of filth.
Jack turned around and looked at the bride and groom in the picture frame hanging on the wall.
“Later, when I became rich and powerful. I captured the wives of the men who filmed the video and
took revenge on them in the same way. Those men didn’t dare to reprimand me. They could only kneel
on the ground and bey me to let them go. As long as I let them live and let them go, they did not care
what I wished to do with their wives and children.”
Jack laughed. “When they got married, they promised to love each other until death. Yet when
problems arose, they just abandoned their spouses.”

destroy the Faulkner family, but…” Jack sighed. “Genev begged me. She said that I

wanted to return to Chanaca this time, I made a bet with her, but… shic lost.”
Armand recalled what Genevieve had asked him the other day and finally understood what the bet was
about. His eyes dimmed before he went over to grab Jack and punch him in the facc.
Jack was not going to take the beating lying down. After taking iwo punches, he hit back viciously.
The two men scuttled on the floor.
Both parties suffered facial injuries and bloodied lips.
In the end, Armand pinned Jack to the ground and spoke coldly: “She didn’t lose the bet. I told her a
lie.”
He loved Genevieve so much.
For the past four years, he had been waiting for her and missing her.
Jack’s face was badly hurt and almost numb with pain, but he smiled and said, “So what? She doesn’t
love you anymore. Haven’t you realized yet that no matter what you say in front of her, she shows no
reaction?”
“It doesn’t matter. I’ve already waited for four years. I can wait a few more” Armand said. “I can pursue
her. I will do everything in my power to win her heart again.”
