Bill’s attitude suddenly changed, making the whole living room cautious and dare not speak.
His aura was compelling and undeniable, which made people tremble and panic as if disaster would come in the next second.
The face of Carrie turned pale, and her lips trembled.
“I… I did it for the Simpson family!”
Bill’s eyes flashed a trace of coldness.
Before he could speak, Lucas chuckled faintly.
“We all know it’s for the Simpson family or yourself.”
Lucas turned to look at Bill.
“I just want to know why you broke into my office and took Ms. Lawrence away as soon as I left.”
Lucas frowned, and his voice was cold.
Carrie’s face darkened.
“You take her without permission. Shouldn’t I ask?”
“Are you going to ask me, or do you want to threaten me?”
Lucas didn’t cringe at the sight of Carrie.
The darkness in each other’s hearts was directly put on the table.
He had always disdained to cover up scandals for others, let alone Carrie!
The face of Carrie was livid.
There was dead silence in the air, and needles could be heard.

There was a slight killing intent and coldness.
Robbin lowered his head and kept silent.
Irven was even more invisible.
Bill was silent without a word.
Genevieve didn’t want to get involved, but suddenly she remembered something.
What about Jeffrey if they had a bad relationship?
Genevieve took a deep breath and summoned the courage to break the silence.
“Well, can we talk about it while eating?”
Everyone was stunned.
Bill’s aura was gloomy, and he seemed to restrain himself a little. He rolled up his sleeves and walked down.
“Then listen to Ms. Lawrence!”
Carrie secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
It was no good for her if the dispute got too big.
She almost said the wrong words just now and hit Bill’s bottom line.
Genevieve raised an eyebrow at Lucas, and Lucas smiled.
Bill suddenly turned around, and his voice was somewhat harsh.
“Don’t flirt back there!”
They froze for a moment.
“Is there a third eye behind him?‘ Genevieve thought.
Lucas chuckled and strode to catch up with him.

“Dad, don’t say that. Ms. Lawrence will be embarrassed.”
Bill answered indifferently.
It sounded like he was listening to advice.
Genevieve felt a little blushed and went to the table without looking aside.
Carrie should be cunning. She seemed to forget their unhappiness and acted as a good wife and mother at the dinner table as if nothing had happened.
She picked up food for others from time to time, persuaded them to eat more, and asked Irven about the engagement progress.
Genevieve felt that Carrie’s flattery was too obvious and hypocritical.
Bill’s attitude had always been lukewarm, and there was no superfluous response. He just talked with Lucas
from time to time.

It could be seen that he indulged Lucas, but also had high hopes for him.
This meal was hypocritical and thrilling.
Finally, after dinner, Genevieve was taken away by Lucas.
Bill just waved his hand and sighed.
“Ms. Lawrence, come here to play with Lucas if you’re free.”
Genevieve was confused. It was not a fun place.
But she nodded decisively, “Of course. See you, Mr. Simpson!”
She followed Lucas out with a smile and looked back at the brightly lit Simpson residence, which was as
majestic and heavy as a palace in the night.
It was just a little empty.
After getting in the car, Lucas said faintly, “You’re kinda bummed about this place, aren’t you?”

Lucas smiled and said, “It’s the first time my father has been so patient with other girls. He is even more generous to you than to Robbin.
“Normally he wouldn’t have dined with us, but today it was probably because of you.”
Genevieve frowned slightly.
She thought, ‘Am I so important?”
She paused and said, “Maybe your father is also polite.”
Lucas was speechless. He smiled and didn’t continue to speak.
“But your mother’s pretending is too fake.”
Genevieve spoke casually and immediately retreated.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to speak ill of your mother!”
She just accidentally told the truth.
Lucas stopped smiling. “She’s not my mother, nor is she Robbin’s mother. You don’t have to apologize.”
Genevieve’s eyes widened in shock.
There was a moment of silence in the car.
It seemed that Genevieve had touched a secret, the privacy of a family. It would be impolite for her to inquire. any longer. So she shut up back.
They got Lucas‘ apartment.
Genevieve had no objection to borrowing. After all, such a large penthouse was much more comfortable than a
hotel.

On the contrary, he was immersed in the darkness and Genevieve couldn’t understand his silence.
Genevieve paused and asked, “Professor Simpson, is there anything else?”
Lucas pursed his lips and said, “The person sent got the news that Jeffrey had run away from Mad Dog and his men’s civil war chaos two days ago, and he boarded a ship without any positioning or cruise information.”
Genevieve froze for a moment and then breathed a sigh of relief. “I’m glad my brother is still alive.”
“I’m worried that he will be in trouble at sea. Ordinary people can live seven days without water and food, but it only takes a few minutes to deal with any storms on the sea,” Lucas said in a low voice.
Genevieve patted him on the shoulder, touched.
“Professor Simpson, don’t worry. My brother can swim. He won a national championship in swimming!”
Lucas twitched the corner of his mouth and said, “And you expect your brother to swim back from the sea?”
Genevieve was inexplicably confident about her brother.
She patted her chest and said confidently, “He can do it!”
Genevieve relaxed at the thought of this.
Days of terror came to pass. Finally, she could sleep well.
Lucas smiled, shook his head, and got out of the car.
“But now that we have started to deal with Mad Dog, we can’t give up halfway.
“A few days later, he will go ashore to see the goods. There will be a cocktail party then. Would you like to come and have a look at it together?”
Genevieve paused and replied, “Okay!”
She vaguely looked forward to it.

But more importantly, she wanted to take revenge on him. What was Mad Dog that made Jeffrey unable to return home?
Genevieve was very obedient these days. In addition to going to school with Lucas, she was waiting for him in the military factory of the Simpson family.
