Submitting To My Billionaire Ex-Wife by Allison Mild ( Genevieve)

Chapter 7

Selene snorted coldly and left right after that.

The lawyer added, “I’m Ms. Lawrence’s attorney. You can contact me directly if you need. anything.”

He exchanged business cards with Anthony’s lawyer before leaving with Selene.

Anthony’s lawyer was stunned as he glanced at the business card. “This is a top–notch lawyer of the leading law firm in the country. He has never lost a lawsuit.”

Anthony stood there stiffly. He then ordered Matthew, “Go get someone to find out where Genevieve is.”

He desperately wanted to see her, wondering whether she would hate him if she found out he was handling the follow–up matters of the accident for Rosalie, the culprit who had harmed her.

Matthew nodded.

Soon after Anthony returned to the company, Rosalie went to work.

She attentively made him a cup of coffee, but he glanced at her grimly without moving a

muscle.

Anthony’s taste for coffee had long changed, and the coffee Genevieve brewed suited his

taste better.

Right then, his mind was full of Genevieve.

Rosalie looked at him cautiously, her face pale. “What’s the matter, Anthony? Are you not feeling well?”

Anthony’s face was gloomy. “Do you know who you hit last night?”

Rosalie pursed her lips and shook her head nervously.

Anthony frowned as he asked, “Do you really have no idea it was Genevieve?”

Rosalie froze for a moment, and her tears fell instantly. She walked over and grabbed his hand as she sobbed. “Genevieve? I really have no idea. I didn’t mean to do that. Is she all. right? How about I go and apologize to her?”

Anthony withdrew his hand, his face ashen. There was a hint of indifference and doubt in

his eyes.

Rosalie wept hysterically and wrapped her arms around his shoulders, as if she was afraid of losing something. “How could I harm her? Don’t you believe me? I’m a mother. How

would I lie?”

Anthony fixed his gaze on her, complicated emotions filling his gaze. With an overwhelmingly intimidating aura, he said coldly, “I’ll investigate this matter thoroughly. If you’ve done it on purpose, I will make you pay for my child’s death with your life.”

Rosalie froze slightly, and her face turned ashen for a moment. Then, she quickly wiped her tears and stood up as she sobbed. “Do you not believe me? I’ll go apologize to Ms. Lawrence and ask for her forgiveness right now. If she won’t forgive me, I’ll go to the police station to turn myself in and go to jail. I’ll leave Samson in your care in the future.”

Anthony’s deep eyes held complex emotions. Pursing his thin lips, he wore an indifferent expression. “Good. Do that. I’ll arrange for you to go abroad in a few days.”

Rosalie was stunned as soon as his words fell. Her face pale with devastation, she stood. rooted to the spot with panic in her eyes.

Anthony ignored her and strode away.

There were too many coincidences in that matter, and he couldn’t help but suspect it. Regardless of whether the accident was intentional or not, he couldn’t allow Rosalie to stay any longer.

He and Genevieve didn’t deserve to end up like that. He owed Genevieve too much. When she got better, he would bring her back and make it up to her by treating her better. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Genevieve was in a coma for a few days. When she woke up again, she felt sore all over.

She gradually opened her eyes and was slightly stunned when she saw the scene around. There were Epean–style luxurious decorations, familiar yet strange limited–edition furniture pieces, exquisite antique vases carefully placed everywhere, and the crystal bead curtains she custom– made abroad.

At that moment, her eyes suddenly stung and welled up with tears. This was the room she had been away from for a long time, her home she had not returned to for three years.

Genevieve was, after all, the young lady of Lawrence Group, who had been groomed as an

heiress since she was a child.

“Ms. Lawrence, you’re awake?” A voice sounded next to her, and the person immediately

called out in surprise, “Ms. Lawrence is awake!”

Genevieve abruptly recalled the memory before she had fallen into a coma, where bright, dazzling light and overwhelming pain suddenly hit her. She immediately touched her belly.

There wasn’t anything there anymore, and she could tell that the little life that had once existed for a short time was gone.

Tears fell, and her heart ached unbearably. ‘Why did this happen to me? I’ve given up on Anthony. Why would Rosalie want to kill my baby?’ she thought.

Genevieve curled up into a ball and sobbed bitterly.

Soon, there was a knock on the door.

She gathered her thoughts and said, “Please come in.”

Genevieve’s father, Darrell, walked in. He sighed in distress upon seeing the state his daughter was in.

Back then, Genevieve had insisted on marrying Anthony without hesitation. She, someone who had never suffered since childhood, suffered unimaginable grievances and hardships for three years.

Not only was she badly hurt, but she even got herself in such a pathetic state that she almost lost her life.

Darrell was so anxious when he heard what happened to Genevieve and badly wished he

could kill Anthony and Rosalie.

He walked over and caressed Genevieve’s face, heartbroken. Then, he comforted her gently, “Don’t be afraid. No one will ever dare to bully you again, my little princess.”

Genevieve couldn’t help hugging Darrell and crying in his arms, tears flowing incessantly. “Dad, I was wrong…”

Now that things had turned out like this, she and Anthony couldn’t even end their marriage decently. Someone had to pay the price for this marriage, and parting on good terms was never an option.

Genevieve had dedicated her heart to him for three years, but all she got in return was humiliation and hurt, and she even ended up losing her child. That lesson was unforgettable enough.

Darrell stroked Genevieve’s hair, feeling sorry for her. “You can come home anytime you want. Let Jeffrey help you with the rest. Your mom will be heartbroken if she sees you like this when she comes home.”

When Darrell received the call from Selene at that time, he was so frightened that he almost had a cardiac arrest. The mistakes she had made didn’t matter much to him compared to losing his daughter.

Lawrence Group was as powerful as Hoffman Group. ‘What makes Anthony think he can get away with bullying Genevieve?‘ Darrell thought.

Genevieve said, “I’ll take revenge for this myself. Dad, you stay out of it.”

Knowing Genevieve’s character, Darrell nodded helplessly. “All right. It’s all up to you.” He had decided anyway that if anyone dared to bully Genevieve, he would never let them go.

Genevieve pursed her lips and asked, “Is Mom still filming?”

Genevieve’s mother, Samantha Underwood, was a well–known actress in the industry. She had won countless awards as the best actress.

Samantha joined the entertainment circle at a very young age, and now in her forties, she was still very popular and constantly received film invitations. She would take part in at

least one film every year to pass the time.

However, Samantha had been keeping her marriage secret. No one knew that she was married to Darrell, the chairman of Lawrence Group, and had given birth to Genevieve. Her private life was a well–protected secret.

Darrell nodded and smiled, “She is taking part in an event abroad and won’t be back for a while.”

Although Samantha couldn’t return, her video calls came one after another, and Genevieve was exhausted just by answering them.

Darrell did not let out the news that Genevieve had returned home for fear that it would disturb her rest. He planned to wait until she recovered before making any further plans.

However, when Selene heard Genevieve was awake, she immediately went to her house.

Looking at Genevieve’s pale face, Selene felt sorry for her and flew into a rage. “He didn’t even ask about your deceased child, and he even bailed that woman out of the police station that night. I shouldn’t have just slapped her. I should have knocked her on the head with a brick!”

Genevieve’s feelings for Anthony had almost diminished at that point. She didn’t care who he was with, but the mention of her child brought a sharp pain to her heart. Unfortunately, it was pointless to be sad since it already happened.
