Chapter 795
Only then did one of the bodyguards regain his senses and rush off to make the call.
Despite Jack's words, Genevieve had no illusions about his character. Stubborn and ruthless, he would never easily
let something he coveted go.
As a result, she remained vigilant while holding Jack at knifepoint.
Before she knew it, Genevieve could smell the stench of blood in the air. It was then that she realized Jack's shirt
was already covered in blood.
As the blood dripped onto the ground, it was enough to form a small puddle.
In her panic, she felt the urge to allow the remaining bodyguard to bandage Jack's wound. Unfortunately, she
discarded the idea when his predatory gaze betrayed his intention to seize her weapon.
Upon the arrival of the helicopter, Genevieve continued to hold Jack hostage as she exited the mansion and walked
toward the helipad.
No sooner had she released Jack from knifepoint than she entered the cockpit with the pilot's help. It wasn't until
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe helicopter had soared into the sky that the tension in her body was finally eased.
At the sight of her blood-filled hands, she was worried that Jack might die from losing too much blood.
In the end, she chose to cast those thoughts aside and not look out the window.
With his hair blowing in the wind, Jack looked up and watched the helicopter gradually disappear from his sight as if
the bond he and Genevieve shared had been severed in that instant.
Throughout his entire life, he had been searching for a woman to love him, but in the end, it was nothing but pure
fantasy.
Due to the huge amount of blood he lost, Jack's face turned pale while his body began to swoon.
Having learned of what happened from the bodyguard, Lilian rushed to the helipad. At the sight of Jack's towering
figure collapsing onto the ground, she stood up from her wheelchair with gritted teeth.
Even though she had practiced walking ever since she was fitted with prosthetic limbs, she preferred to remain in
the wheelchair most of the time.
Opening the first aid kit she brought, Lilian took out a bandage and began to stop Jack's bleeding with it. “The
bodyguard told me that you could've easily dodged the attack with your skills.”
Jack broke into a smirk. “Why should I?”
When she caught the gloomy look in his eyes, Lilian, filled with sudden rage, threw the bandage aside. “In that case,
what's the meaning of this? Did you get me to come just to pick up your corpse?”
“Of course I want to taste that Leroy of 93 with you.” Jack let out a chuckle.
Raising his hand to stroke her beautiful face, he leaned closer to whisper something in her ear. Before he even
finished, Lilian looked away, her eyes reflecting her shock. Evidently, she was in no mood to listen any further.
She asserted coldly, “In your dreams. I won't help you!”
“You're well aware that I do not have any relatives. Hence, other than you, there's no one else.” Running his fingers
across her cheeks, he added in a gentle tone, “Just think of it as my reward for helping you manage the company
over the last few years, hmm?”
Lilian slapped his hand away. Despite not saying a word, her eyes were already red.
“I'm really tired.” Resting himself on Lilian's shoulder, he murmured, “If I could relive that day, I wish that I had died
then. The person named Jack Valentine would cease to exist in this world.”
If I hadn't met Genevieve, I wouldn't have fallen in love with her and suffered so much pain.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, he was reluctant to give in.
More than ten hours later, Genevieve returned to Jadeborough.
Having received her call, Cooper, who was already waiting at the airport, informed her, “That afternoon, Jack gave
me a call, telling me that he wanted to take you back to Dartan for a few days.”
Little did he expect it to end up being half a month.
Despite being aware that she was in the mansion, Cooper was powerless to do anything due to how tight Jack's
security was.
Genevieve was taken aback by his words. She didn't understand why Jack had said what he said to Cooper when he
obviously wanted to imprison her.
“How are Lucian and Mandy?”
“They have been staying with Johanna since last week and are having a blast playing with Asel.” Cooper continued,
“When I told Lucian that you went overseas with Armand for work, he wasn't convinced. In fact, he questioned me
separately about it.
Nonetheless, I didn't tell him the truth for fear of making him worry.”
"What about Mando? Is he back?”
Cooper fell into a momentary silence. “Not yet.”
