Chapter 223 Lauraine grabbed Anthony's sleeves with a mournful expression, just like when she was a child, and pitifully begged, “Tony, please help me. | want to apologize, but she doesn’t accept it. She's fine now, so what am | guilty of? This is unfairl” Anthony’s eyes were cold as he said, “Fair? What's fair? She did survive, but you didn’t save her. How is it fair?” He was furious. Lauraine covered her face and cried guiltily.
She didn’t know what to do now.
Anthony took a deep breath and asked, “What did she say to you just now?” Lauraine choked up as she sobbed, and she angrily said, “She toldto turn myself in. Tony, | can’t do that. She has no evidence, anyway. What can she do to me?” When he heard this, Anthony's eyes darkened with disappointment.
Genevieve had made concessions.
Still, Lauraine wouldn't give in.
He pushed her hand away, eyes dark and gloomy. In a deep voice, he said, “Lauraine, you're beyond saving.” After that, he turned around and walked away.
Lauraine shouted emotionally at his receding figure.
Anthony didn’t spare a glance her way.
He didn’t know how to face Genevieve now.
At the entrance of the ward, he had asked Genevieve to let Lauraine go.
It was ridiculous now that he thought about it.
Guilt-tripping was one of the Hoffman family’s specialties.
1/6 GGood INSTALL Chapter 223 Anthony was utterly ashamed.
It would be a month in a few days.
The Lawrence family was sending Monica back to the countryside.
Rebecca and Alice didn't leave empty-handed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCarrying large bags, Samantha also prepared many gifts for others.
Especially Rebecca, who had received 20,000 dollars in supplement expenses from Quincey secretly. No one knew about this, so she went hhappily.
The Lawrence family members all let out a sigh of relief.
Meanwhile, a new topic went trending on the internet.
There was nothing else but the news about the private life of Stella, a popular emerging celebrity.
She was caught by the paparazzi having dinner with a mysterious man who looked similar to Anthony.
FD When the paparazzi asked about the man’s identity, Stella smiled shyly and didn’t admit or deny it. She just said, “It’s not convenient to make it public yet!” Selene showed her the photo. It was indeed Anthony.
However, Genevieve wasn't interested.
TuringTech Innovations’ project had entered a critical early stage.
Jacinta led the project at TuringTech Innovations, a company Genevieve owned.
There were two meetings every week, and three people had to attend.
In addition, they each arranged a confidant to deal with the daily affairs.
To put it bluntly, these confidants were informants they sent on the basis of mutual trust.
Genevieve'’s confidant was Eric, while Jacinta’s was a vice president.
2/6 G Good INSTALL Chapter 223 (5) The person Anthony brought was more unexpected. It was Stella, the newcomer who had been a hot topic on the intea few days ago.
Jacinta firmly opposed this decision first by saying, “You let a layman in on such an important project? An actress, at that? Mr. Hoffman, are you joking with us?” Stella was dressed exquisitely and fashionably. She even wore a women’s business suit, standing behind Anthony with a smile.
Anthony glanced at her calmly, then looked at Genevieve and pursed his lips slightly. He explained, “Stella's next project is about corporate jobs, so she’s here to learn. Don’t worry. She will do well. | vouch for her.” Stella nodded with a smile. Softly, she said, “Ms. Sanders, Ms. Lawrence, the project is proceeding according to plan. If anything happens, | will inform Mr. Hoffman at once. | won't delay the project’s progress.” Jacinta didn’t want to argue with someone who couldn't even be considered an assistant, so she looked away.
Genevieve looked at the contract in front of her and didn’t oppose Stella’s presence. She was rather happy seeing this.
Needless to say, working with Stella, who was representing Hoffman Group but not from the circle, would be easier than working with someone who was.
At least Stella wouldn't cup with random ideas.
Eric thought the same, sitting beside Genevieve and nodding to Stella with a smile.
The meeting attended by the six people was serious and brief.
Jacinta had no interest in chatting, so she didn’t try to smooth things over.
After the meeting, Jacinta and Genevieve went to the restroom together.
Jacinta couldn't help but complain, “Is Anthony out of his mind? It’s such an important project, and he sends someone like that? Does he takefor a fool? Actors just need to follow the script. What other experience do they need?” Genevieve didn’t want to add to her tirade, so she just smiled and said, “Ms. Sanders, nothing will happen. Don’t worry.” 3/6 G Good INSTALL Chapter 223 FD Jacinta scoffed before coldly saying, “It’s obvious that Anthony and that woman are very close. Andrea is his fiancée in nonly. | think this woman is a replacement. He moves on quite fast. Forget it. If something really happens, | won't let him off easy.” As she spoke, her phone on the side lit up.
Genevieve glanced subconsciously at the nflashing on the screen.
It was Caspian’s.
Before she could take a closer look, Jacinta hurriedly picked it up.
Jacinta pursed her lips and calmly said, “I have another cooperation to discuss. See you later.” Drying her hands, Jacinta then quickly left.
Genevieve speculated that Caspian might be working with Jacinta’s company.
Her phone was still in the conference room.
She went back to get it.
Unexpectedly, Anthony was still there.
Genevieve frowned slightly and walked over to take her phone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnthony seemed to be waiting for her, asking, “Is Ms. Sanders angry with me?” Genevieve raised her eyebrows. It was a business matter, so she didn’t want to burn any bridges.
“I can’t read other people's thoughts. You can ask her yourself,” replied Genevieve.
Anthony’s eyes darkened as he asked, “You don’t object toletting Stella participate?” Genevieve looked down to check if there was any important notification on her phone. Without raising her head, she replied, “No, it's your company’s decision. | won't interfere.” Anthony didn’t know what to say. The explanation he prepared was useless.
4/6 Chapter 223 Genevieve was so upfront and honest, not misunderstanding anything at all.
“Are you free at noon? Shall | treat you to lunch?” asked Anthony.
Genevieve looked at the tand smiled politely before saying, “I'm not free.” At this moment, Stella knocked on the door and cin. She looked at Anthony with a soft smile and said, “Mr.
Hoffman, let's have Clusian food for lunch. I've made a reservation.” Anthony frowned slightly.
Genevieve had already turned away and was about to leave.
Stella waved to her on the side and said, “Ms. Lawrence, would you like to join us?” “No, thanks. Enjoy your lunch,” replied Genevieve.
The sound of Genevieve's footsteps gradually faded away.
Anthony’s expression becindifferent again, and his temperament remained imposing.
Feeling something was wrong, Stella's expression turned stiff as she said, “Mr. Hoffman, it seems that Ms.
Lawrence has something to attend to. Then, the reservation...” Anthony picked up his blazer and went out while ordering, “Cancel the reservation.” He wouldn't eat with another woman.
Stella froze a little, but she still smiled and nodded. “Okay,” she replied.
Genevieve did have a prior engagement.
Yvette had arrived.
Perhaps to get away from the news of Louis’ death, she chere to relax.
Genevieve picked her up at the airport.
It wasn’t only Yvette. Louis, who she had not seen for a long while, was also there.
5/6 GGood INSTALL Chapter 223 Louis had a calm and reserved demeanor. A warm smile appeared on his face when he saw her, making him look cheerful.
Yvette had been on the plane for too long. When she saw him, she couldn't help but complain, “He obviously has a private plane, but he wants to keep a low profile. Will he die if he letshitch a ride?”
