Irven had mixed feelings for a moment.
Lucas was always careful. Although he did not restrict Genevieve’s freedom, the bodyguards followed her everywhere.
Anyone who could see Genevieve was Lucas‘ man.
Carrie would have no idea Genevieve existed unless someone told her.
As expected, it was Robbin.
All the members of the Simpson family were deliberately hiding their light under a bushel, but they couldn’t.
Carrie was Bill’s woman. her prestige and status in the Simpson family were very high.
No one knew her background, but everyone knew she represented Bill by her words and attitude.
Every member of the Simpson family was afraid of her.
Robbin feared her the most.
But now, she was also the first one to betray Lucas.
“Don’t look at me like that. Lucas broke the rules and plans for this woman, so I won’t pin my hopes on him,” Robbin explained coldly, standing there.
As she spoke, she turned to leave.
Irven glanced at her with mixed feelings and headed to the office.
Unexpectedly, he saw a bunch of people coming out of it.
At last, two people came out.
Genevieve took Carrie’s arm. They walked out with a smile on their faces.

When Carrie saw Irven, her eyes turned cold.
Irven immediately went over. “Mrs. Simpson, Genevieve is just an ordinary person!”
Carrie curled up her lips into a half smile.
“How could a woman in Lucas‘ office be ordinary? In addition, Ms. Lawrence and I clicked right away. How do you react like this? I invite her to my home. When Lucas comes back, tell him to go home too.”
As she spoke, she patted the back of Genevieve’s hand with a smile.
“Ms. Lawrence, our house is shabby. I hope you don’t mind.”
Genevieve smiled gently.
“How could it be? I should have visited you long ago. But now I don’t have time to buy you a gift. Mrs. Simpson, don’t blame me for being rude.”
Irven was stunned as he listened to their conversation.
When they left, Irven came back to his senses and called Lucas.
But no one answered the phone.
Genevieve sat next to Carrie. Judging from this situation, she knew Carrie wasn’t a simple woman.
Carrie looked gentle and charming, but her sharp eyes indicated that she was smart and capable.
Genevieve had seen a lot of people in the business world. Her aura was different from that of businessmen.
She had no regard for life.
Along the way, Carrie didn’t ask her about her background.
She wondered if Carrie had already investigated her or if she was not interested in it.
They chatted and even discussed Genevieve’s favorite bags.

opportunity to explain.
However, Carrie didn’t mention it at all.
Genevieve had no choice but to agree with her. Lucas had to explain their relationship by himself.
If it was said that the Simpson residence was humble, that was a joke.
How could a family that owns a munitions factory be ordinary businesspeople?
Even though the windows on both sides were curtained, she could see a dozen tall and strong men standing watch every three feet through the glass in front.
People would feel nervous because of the solemn atmosphere and tight security measures.
Genevieve suddenly regretted coming here with Carrie.
At least, she should let Lucas know!
She thought, ‘Forget it. Irven will tell Lucas where I go.”
After passing through a dozen sentries, they crossed another hidden road.
Then she saw a large manor in the distance at the end of the road, encircled by walls on all sides, although the walls could barely see the end.
The car entered the manor, drove for about ten minutes, then exited through another gate. Then a number of similar cars appeared next to them, either back and forth or side by side. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
It was obvious that they were afraid of being followed or killed.
Genevieve wondered how many enemies the Simpson family offended.
She sat in her seat quietly, looking calm.
After driving this road, they turned onto another peaceful road. Genevieve saw a similar manor in the distance.
As soon as the car entered the parking lot, Carrie next to her breathed a sigh of relief.

She glanced at Genevieve with a smile. Seeing that Genevieve was as calm as usual, her grin widened.

“Ms. Lawrence, are you a bit scared when you go to a strange place?” she asked.
Genevieve blinked and chuckled.
“My family has similar manors in many countries across Epea. They all look alike, so I feel a little familiar!”
Carrie blinked, nodded, and stopped talking.
Genevieve didn’t lie. She wasn’t so high–profile before because it was unnecessary.
But now she was worried about her own safety, so she revealed her identity more or less.
The car soon stopped.
In the distance were rolling mountains and lush forests.
There was a semi–modern architectural complex in the manor.” The bottom building resembled a quadrangle courtyard, whilst the building on top was built against the mountain with a distinctive design. It was red and black. The building on the left was slightly smaller than the one in the center.
However, they were not crowded. Every building had plenty of open space in front and behind it.
These constructions spanned several thousand square feet, and the mountains and rivers behind them had their
own geomancy.
Black bricks and tiles, black glass, and lanterns on the door.
The entire manor was magnificent and solemn. The yellow lights made it appear enormous and exquisite.
As the car stopped, someone immediately walked over and opened the car door for them.
Genevieve got out of the car and saw Carrie flanked by bodyguards. After glancing at her, Carrie walked up the
steps with a smile.
Fountains formed by hot spring water adorned both sides, and the air was filled with a fresh aroma.
Genevieve believed that the layout of the manor was not designed by locals.

She followed Carrie calmly.
The house at the bottom was most likely the residence of bodyguards and servants.
Carrie took her up to the building on the left.
The servant immediately came up and bent to change her shoes.
Another maid brought her a warm towel to wipe her hands.
Genevieve was stunned for a moment and then looked away.
Her family wouldn’t ask the servants to do such a thing.
“Please take good care of Ms. Lawrence,” Carrie demanded with a smile.
Hearing this, the servant immediately went to Genevieve and greeted her in the same way.
Genevieve immediately grabbed the servant’s hand and said with a smile, “I can do it myself. Thank you.”
She glanced inside. The decoration was luxurious, spacious, and bright, and elegant.
Carrie smiled while holding her shawl. “Ms. Lawrence, please sit down. I’ll go change my clothes and talk with you later.”
Genevieve smiled politely. “Please go ahead.”
She sat on the sofa, and the servant quickly served her coffee and snacks.
Genevieve didn’t move.
A few minutes later, a man in a simple gray linen dress came in from the outside.
Although he looked gentle, he exuded a cold aura.
His face changed when he saw Genevieve in the living room.
“Kate?” he asked tentatively.
