The corners of Genevieve's lips lifted into a smile.
She casually plucked the petals of the flowers, one by one. After a while, all that was left of the bouquet
of bellflowers were barren stems and lonely leaves. The ground beneath her was carpeted with velvety
petals.
“You clearly know he's not dead. In fact, you know exactly where he is! Why did you keep insisting that
you didn't know anything?”
“Mrs—Ms. Rachford, I really didn't know where Mr. Faulkner was before this,” Steven said earnestly.
“He only contacted me yesterday morning and requested that I collect the gifts that he had prepared.”
Looking straight at Genevieve, Steven added slowly and sincerely, “If I'm not telling the truth, I swear I
—”
“Okay, okay, I believe you,” Genevieve quickly interrupted Steven before he could swear any oaths.
Glancing at the bag in Steven's hand, the woman stated coldly, “Next time, when he asks you to bring
me breakfast or flowers or anything at all, just throw them all away. I can afford to buy myself a hundred
airplanes. Do you think I need or want these silly little gifts from him? Now, go get rid of whatever's in
your hands!”
With those final petulant words, Genevieve turned and huffed her way upstairs.
To the undiscerning eyes, the two little rascals seemed to be playing with a puzzle. However, in truth,
they were straining their ears to eavesdrop on the adults' conversation.
“Mommy sounds so angry. She's even angrier than she was that time when I annoyed her.” Amanda
leaned over to her brother and whispered in his ear, “What do you think Daddy has done? Are we
never going to eat breakfast from Daddy ever again?”
Lucian tapped his chin thoughtfully for a moment. Then, he murmured quietly into Amanda's ear. Her
eyes lit up as she nodded vigorously.
Genevieve threw herself onto the bed as soon as she reached her bedroom. She inhaled the woody,
masculine smell still lingering on the pillow. Thoughts of Armand and everything that had happened in
the past two days flooded her mind.
She walked over to the closet, pulled out fresh pillowcases, and changed out the ones that still smelt
like Armand.
After she switched the pillowcases, it suddenly dawned on Genevieve that Swallow Garden was
Armand's residence. Shadows of his presence lurked in every corner. What's the point of even
changing the pillowcase? What I need is a new home, a new man!
“Mommy!” Amanda knocked on her bedroom door and sauntered in with her chubby hands behind her
back. “Mommy, aren't you curious why I wasn't upset that day when Daddy didn't show up for my
birthday?”
“Of course I'm curious.” Genevieve knew how much Amanda wanted to see Armand. “Would you like to
tell me why?”
“Okay!” She tugged Genevieve onto the couch and revealed the light blue envelope that she had been
hiding behind her. “The answer is in this letter.”
Genevieve pulled out two pieces of paper from within the envelope and began to read.
The letter stated: Hello Amanda, this is Daddy. I am so sorry that I was not with you when you and your
brother were born. I am so sorry that I did not help your Mommy and ease her burdens when you were
both young. I missed you and your brother's first four birthdays, and I promised to spend your fifth
birthday with you this year, but I broke this promise. I am sorry that you and your brother, and Mommy,
worried about me all this while. I think I may be the worst daddy in the world! I was not there to watch
you grow up, neither am I a good husband. I did not take good care of Mommy, but I love all of you so
much. The three of you have taught me the meaning of responsibility and duty. All of you are my
everything! Don't forget that you are my favorite little princess! Sadly, I will have to be away from you
for a long while. I'm so sorry. It is all my fault! When I return, you can punish me, okay? I owe you a
hundred favors! If Mommy is furious and does not want to wait for me, it's all right. I will respect her
decision. I hope that you and your brother will be well, and please take good care of your mommy for
me.
Lucian tapped his chin thoughtfully for a moment. Then, he murmured quietly into Amanda's ear. Her
eyes lit up as she nodded vigorously.
After that, Genevieve read the letter that Armand had written to their son. The contents of the two
letters were similar. She now understood why her son had suddenly run into her room last night and
said what he had said.
Earlier, Genevieve had made up her mind that she would move back to Regality Gardens and remove
Armand from her life.
However, reading the letter had given her second thoughts.
