Chapter 285
Genevieve was shocked by Anthony’s arrival.
She never expected that he could come here, to the Simpson family.
She turned her head and looked at Anthony in surprise.
Anthony was travel–wore and he stared at Carrie coldly.
Carrie paused for a while and realized that Anthony was not a man to be trifled with.
She thought, ‘But this is my house.
‘No one dared to come into the residence of Simpson family uninvited.
She looked at Anthony coldly and aggressively.
“Security!”
Many bodyguards outside the Simpson family gathered in an instant.
Anthony was calm and fearless.
The bodyguards alerted the person in the study.
Bill came out of the study and looked at the scene downstairs with a sullen face.
“Anthony is my distinguished guest. Don’t be rude!”
Genevieve and Lucas were surprised.
Carrie looked at Bill in shock, full of doubts and bewilderment.
She thought, ‘I don’t know that Anthony is a distinguished guest of the Simpson family!
Bill went downstairs and reached out his hand to Anthony.

“Anthony, I haven’t seen you for a long time.” NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Anthony looked indifferent and shook hands with Bill.
“Bill, it’s been a long time indeed.”
Bill’s attitude towards Anthony made Genevieve feel incredible.
She thought
‘How could such a big shot be so nice to Anthony?”
Genevieve was confused.
Then, Anthony looked at Carrie.
“You were bullying Genevieve, right?”
Carrie’s face turned pale, and she was kind of afraid of Anthony.
“I’m afraid that there is some misunderstanding. Genevieve is an honored guest, so how could I bully her?”
“It’s just that I was teaching my daughter a lesson. Genevieve insisted on intervening, and there were some misunderstandings.”
She subconsciously looked up at Bill and said with a smile, “Anthony is an honored guest. Why didn’t you tell me in advance? Anthony almost misunderstands us.”
Bill frowned slightly, and didn’t say anything.
Genevieve said first, “You slapped Robbin just because she poured me a glass of milk. Is it because you don’t like me?” Genevieve looked directly at Carrie and asked.
She knows how to embarrass people on some occasions.
Soon, Carrie’s face turned gloomy and stiff.
She looked at Genevieve coldly and was too angry to speak.
Bill looked unhappy and he said in a hoarse voice, “Is that so?”

He looked at Carrie, and his voice was cold and tough.
Carrie was nervous, and she took a deep breath.
“I said I was scolding my daughter. It’s just an accident and Genevieve thought too much.
“How could I not like her?
“I like her from the bottom of my heart.”
Genevieve raised her eyebrows, smiled brightly, and replied in a sarcastic tone. “Oh? I did think too much. It turns out that Carrie likes me. I’m sorry that I can’t tell.”
Carrie’s face stiffened, and she gritted her teeth.
It was obvious that if it weren’t for Bill, she would have rushed up and slapped Genevieve in the face.
Bill frowned and said in a cold voice, “How can you behave yourself like this? Genevieve is an honored guest. Even if you want to teach Robbin a lesson, you can’t do it in front of our guests.”
Carrie was embarrassed because of the rebuke of Bill. She barely smiled and trembled slightly. “Yes, I see. It won’t happen again. Let Anthony sit down and I will ask the maid to serve tea.”
After saying that, Carrie left here with her head high.
Carrie couldn’t hold back for a second if she stayed any longer.
Though she won, Genevieve didn’t think there was anything to be proud of.
Instead, she felt a little sad when she looked at Robbin, who had been ignored by everyone.
She thought, ‘What Bill means is that he will not interfere when Carrie scolds Robbin.
‘Is that because Robbin is not his biological daughter?”
Genevieve could not say a word of accusation, but felt uncomfortable.
Bill patted Anthony on the shoulder. “Let’s stay for dinner and welcome you.”

Anthony nodded slightly. “Sorry to bother you.”
Bill was a little excited about Anthony’s arrival, so he missed many small details.
Lucas glanced at Genevieve and Anthony with a subtle change in expression.
Bill and Anthony were walking ahead.
Lucas walked down the stairs, looked at Genevieve and smiled.

Then he looked at Robbin who was standing there and said, “I will ask someone to send you to Irven’s place tonight.”
Robbin nodded expressionlessly.
Lucas looked at Genevieve.
“Let’s go to the restaurant.”
The dining room was not here. They went out from the corridor behind the living room. The dining room was surrounded by a greenhouse.
When they were far away from Bill and Anthony, Genevieve could not help asking, “How could Robbin live like
this?”
Lucas said indifferently, “This is Robbin’s choice. We gave her the chance to resist, but she couldn’t do it. Now
she has no other choice.”
“Doesn’t your father care about it?” Genevieve asked in surprise.
Lucas stopped, looked at her and said hesitantly, “My father knew about it and took care of it, but Robbin didn’t appreciate it.”
“Robbin had no real relationship with the Simpson family, whether by blood or law. She can’t live without
Carrie.”
Lucas didn’t say much.
But Genevieve seemed to understand.

She thought, ‘When I first saw Robbin, I thought she was a bad–tempered young lady who looked down upon
everyone.
“But now, I realize that she has a sense of insecurity. She protects herself with a bad temper.
Genevieve pursed her lips and turned to the greenhouse.
Bill and Anthony were already seated.
Anthony sat on a seat on the left, and the right side was empty.
Bill beckoned to Genevieve. “Genevieve, have a seat.”
Genevieve walked over with a smile. “Bill, I didn’t expect you to know Anthony.”
Bill nodded happily. “Yes, I have some cooperation with Anthony.”
Bill took Genevieve as his future daughter–in–law. Lucas sat on one side of Genevieve and nodded with satisfaction.
“Lucas, take good care of Genevieve.”
Lucas smiled and nodded. “Of course.”
The servant put a plate of authentic Strico cuisine in front of Genevieve.
Anthony, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said, “She can’t eat spicy food.”
Everyone was shocked.
There was a moment of silence in the dining room.
Bill suddenly sensed something was wrong.
“I forgot to ask just now. Do Anthony and Genevieve know each other?”
Bill thought, ‘Anthony called her Gen.
‘Even Lucas doesn’t call Genevieve like that.‘

Genevieve’s hands shook slightly, and thought, ‘Bill haven’t known that Anthony was my ex– husband.”
Her heart trembled, and wished Anthony wouldn’t say anything.
But Anthony was one step ahead of her. He said naturally as if on purpose.
“More than acquaintance. I know Gen very well. We’ve been married.”
