Chapter 604
“I’ve made some oatmeal and beef meat pic. Are you really not going to try them?” Bruce asked.
Genevieve felt the urge to just turn him down, but her stomach growling betrayed her hunger. She had not taken anything the whole night, and her body could not resist the good food, so Genevieve sat down quictly at the table.
The oatmeal smelled delicious and tasted sweet. After having some warm food, Genevieve felt refreshed and energized.
While she atc, Bruce watched hier nervously, wondering if the food suited her taste buds. When Genevieve was almost done eating, he took a fork and had some of the pic himself. “By the way.” he suddenly uttered, “I got the follow-up script yesterday night.”
“Really?” Genevieve was glad to hear that. She badly wanted to read it then and there, but the thought of spending another awkward second with him made her hesitant.
“Could you send me the electronic version?” she asked. That was the best compromise she could think of.
Bruce looked at her. “Yeah, but you deleted me on WhatsApp.”
“I’ll add you again.” Genevieve unblocked him on WhatsApp and added him back. “I can’t wire you money here, so how about you give me your bank account number?”

As Genevieve watched him finish her leftovers, she felt even more uncomfortable. “Oh. What is
it?”
Bruce chuckled. “How was my performance yesterday night?”
Genevieve recalled the day when she came here to have a meal. She conjectured that Bruce had broken up with Coco because he was impotent. At least, that was what she told Charlotte at the bar, but things took an unexpected turn, and Genevieve ended up sleeping with Bruce yesterday night.
Genevieve rubbed her forehead, trying to block her face from him.
Her sleeve slid downward at the movement, revealing the love bites on her arm.
She quickly put down her hand again and locked her gaze on Bruce. “You’re not bad,” she said shortly. Just give me your account number. I told you I will pay up.”
Bruce could not refrain from laughing. He gave her his account number, and Genevieve transferred him the money. That made her feel better.
After a while, Genevieve got ready to leave. Before she did, though, she looked back at Bruce again as if she was hesitating if she should say something.
Bruce beat her to it. “Don’t worry, Ms. Rachford. You’ve paid me enough. I don’t remember anything from yesterday at all. Besides, I’m starting filming tomorrow. You won’t be seeing me for some time.”
Genevieve did not understand why a hint of
She should be relieved since he would be gone, but that also mcant he would not be able to make hier lunch for some time to come.
“Have a safe trip,” Genevieve said.
Then she left Regality Gardens for the company. Amanda gave her a video call not long after Genevieve arrived.
“Mommy,” the girl coocd, “I miss you so much!”
“I miss you too!” Genevieve replied, making a kissing gesture.
“You’re lying, Mommy,” Amanda complained, pouting her lips. “All my friends have their parents with them, but not me. They are loved and cared for, but you left me all alone here.” There were tears in the girl’s eyes.
“Come on,” Genevieve replied helplessly. “You have food to eat and things to play with every day. That is not what deserted kids get.”
“But I just want to be with you, Mommy. Could you bring me skiing in Horbah? You’ve not spent time with me for so long,” the girl implored before a brief moment of silence.
“Mommy.” she called out, “don’t tell me you have a boyfriend over there. Does that mean you don’t want Lucian and me anymore?”
“Of course not!”
Amanda’s call reminded Genevieve that it had indeed been a long time since she went back to Dartan to see them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSince Sylvie would not be able to make a comeback in the entertainment industry anytime soon, there was nothing much left for Genevieve to do.
“All right,” Genevieve declared with a smile. “What about I go back the day after tomorrow? I’ll bring you guys to Horbah to go skiing.”
Amanda was clated. “Yay! Promise, Mommy?”
“Yes. I promise.”
While they were still on the call, Jane entered to look for Genevieve.
Since Jane had never met Amanda before, Genevieve introduced them to each other.
Jane’s heart melted when she saw the adorable child on the screen. She wished she could extend
her hand through the screen and pinch the girl’s cheeks. “You are so cute!”
“Thanks, Ms. Faulkner. You’re pretty too!”
“No.” Genevieve interrupted. “You should call her ‘Aunt Jane. She’s your daddy’s cousin.”
Jane was dumbstruck.
Upon first secing Amanda. Jane liad wondered why the child did not take after Jack’s green eves. It all made sense afier she licard what Genevieve said.
