Chapter 957
Genevieve felt as though she was about to suffocate. Her heart squeezed as she stared at the scar on her wrist.
Within seconds, tears began streaming down her face.
Tracing her cheeks, the tears trickled off her chin and fell onto her wrist.
Cooper was afraid that her healing wound would be infected. He quickly pulled her arm away, disinfect her wound,
and bandaged her wrist once again.
Wiping the tears away from Genevieve's face with his fingers, he scolded her amidst the heartache. “When you
were committing suicide, did Lucian cross your mind? You still have a child. What will happen to Lucian if you die?”
“Mandy's gone...” A lump formed in Genevieve's throat. “I didn't take good care of her. I'm not fit to be a mother...”
She had willingly made a deal with Harry to kill Charice so that Amanda would live. However, now that she had
blood on her hands, Amanda had still passed away.
“Mandy died because of high fever and bleeding in her lungs. Her death has nothing to do with you,” Cooper
comforted her. “Lucian still has no idea about Mandy's death. Genev, you need to pull through. Lucian has lost her
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsister, and he's still young. What will he do if he loses you too?”
Despite his mature and calm attitude, Lucian was only five years old.
He still needed his mother.
However, whenever she remembered Amanda's breathless body and ice-cold skin, she felt as though knives had
pierced her heart. Genevieve collapsed into Cooper's embrace and sobbed mournfully.
Cooper's heart clenched. He opened his mouth to say something, but in the end, he merely pursed his lips in
silence.
After her tears dried up, Genevieve felt a little better. Cooper handed her a towel to clean her face before feeding
her some warm vegetable stew spoonful by spoonful.
Once she was done eating, Genevieve tried to get out of bed. “I'll go back to see Lucian.”
“Lucian is in Johanna's house. He's doing fine.” Cooper pushed her back onto the bed. “You're not feeling well right
now. The wound on your wrist has not healed yet either. I think it's best if you go tomorrow.”
Genevieve touched her face gently. She imagined she must look exhausted and might even frighten Lucian by her
appearance if she were to see him like that.
In the end, she resigned and lay back down in bed.
Cooper did not go anywhere. Instead, he remained in the ward with Genevieve.
Only after Genevieve had fallen asleep did he leave to buy some fruits from the hospital supermarket. Before he
left, he asked the nurses to keep an eye on Genevieve.
When he reached the elevator, he pushed the button and took out his phone to check for any messages. That was
when he saw a message from Sally saying that she would be going over around seven at night because there was
something she needed to do.
Aware that Genevieve was emotionally unstable at the moment, Cooper had decided to stay at the hospital
overnight to accompany her. He sent a quick text to Sally, letting her know that she did not need to visit that night.
Ever since the incident, the Carlo family had not tried to harm him. It was as though they had vanished without a
trace.
Ding! Just as Cooper sent the message, the elevator door opened. Cooper intuitively figured out something was
amiss. He snapped his head up to see three men standing inside the elevator.
One of the men had a gun pointed directly at Cooper's head. His finger was resting on the trigger. He only needed
to make one small movement, and it would be the end for Cooper.
The other two men walked out and grabbed Cooper, forcing him inside the elevator.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGenevieve was once again trapped in a nightmare. She dreamt of Armand's emotionless eyes as he berated her for
daring to kill his biological mother. The scene then quickly changed to a child on a bed. Amanda was coughing
loudly as blood spilled from her mouth onto the pillow. Tears streamed down her face as she looked at and begged
Genevieve to save her from her discomfort.
It wasn't until the sudden ringing of a phone that Genevieve jolted awake from her nightmare.
She sat up slowly and looked around. The ringing was coming from the table. A black phone was placed on the
table, and at that moment, the phone was ringing from an incoming call.
Genevieve did not see Cooper and assumed that it was his phone. After a brief moment of hesitation, she picked up
the phone.
However, the moment she answered the call, the caller did not utter a word. Instead, they hung up almost
immediately.
A frown formed on Genevieve's forehead as she stared at the phone. Soon, the same number sent a photo.
Genevieve clicked on the notification and saw Cooper being forced into a car by a few men dressed in black.
As she looked at the photo, she received another photo within twenty seconds. Cooper had been taken by the men
to Goodwill Cemetry.
The number sent another text yet again: Someone wants to kill Cooper.
