After entering the study, Cooper clenched his fist and lightly punched Armand in the chest, then said
through gritted teeth, “You could have sent us a message or something to say that you were alive all
this time. Do you have any idea how guilty I felt whenever Mandy asked when you guys were coming
home? I couldn't even bring myself to lie to her!”
Armand rubbed his chest. Smiling faintly, he replied, “I know you and Steven would take good care of
the kids. Thanks for holding down the fort for us.”
“Screw you.” Cooper scoffed, then asked grimly, “Didn't Genev come back with you?”
Armand's eyes darkened. “She's still unconscious.”
He had not immediately looked for Genevieve and the others after arriving in Dartan. Knowing
Genevieve, he knew the only way he could save her and himself would be to plan meticulously ahead.
While the rescue mission had been a success, Genevieve ended up losing too much blood after she
was shot by Zephyr. By the time she was rushed to the hospital, her breathing had stopped.
The doctors had managed to revive her, but she was in critical condition. Her breathing had been weak,
and her heart stopped beating on several occasions.
Armand remained by her side through it all. He dared not sleep a wink, terrified that if he did, he would
wake up to see Genevieve dead.
At that point in time, staying with her was his top priority, and nothing else mattered to him.
Fortunately, medical technology was advanced enough to turn things around for Genevieve. The
doctors carried out treatment using only the best medical equipment and prescription, and, much to
Armand's relief, her condition stabilized after a few months.
Armand narrowed his eyes slightly and said, “I wouldn't have come back here if things weren't getting
out of hand.”
He hated having to leave Genevieve alone overseas. but he had no choice.
“It was my fault. I thought those guys were as easy to handle as Edward. I underestimated those sly old
foxes.” Cooper rubbed his temples, and he sounded defeated.
“Don't beat yourself up,” Armand consoled him. “You did well enough by finding enough evidence to
overturn Gerald and Robert's case. I bet the Gaudette family is pissed off. Besides, you were dealing
with formidable opponents.”
Cooper felt slightly better after hearing this. “Mayor Taylor is stepping down due to health issues. I met
with Gerald this afternoon and found out that the new mayor isn't someone from the Gaudette family.”
Armand chuckled. “Well, my last name isn't Gaudette, now is it?”
Cooper looked up at that moment and met the other man's gaze. When he realized what Armand
meant, his eyes lit up. “So, you've been in contact with Robert and Gerald all along?” He punched
Armand in the shoulder. “I'm impressed!”
“I've always known the Gaudettes are an ambitious bunch, but I didn't care.” Armand narrowed his
eyes slightly as his gaze turned menacing. “But, that was before they hurt somebody they shouldn't
have.”
Cooper frowned. “Speaking of which, how did Zephyr come into the picture? Surely, he can't be so
smart as to predict your every move, right?”
Even if Zephyr were that intelligent, Cooper remembered Frank saying that he and Genevieve were the
only ones who knew about the plan to take out the mafia.
Moreover, even if Frank did figure out that the meeting with Genevieve on the yacht was a trap, he
couldn't possibly have foreseen that Frank would strike the mafia at the same time.
When Zephyr managed to evade death and escaped to Mysonna, it took him little to no time to set up a
full-fledged business for himself. This could only mean that he had received intel and made
preparations in advance.
“That's because Zephyr had a mole in Lostaria's police headquarters. Apparently, it's someone from the
Gaudette family,” Armand answered darkly.
Cooper's expression turned grave. He appeared surprised by the Gaudette family's power and
influence. “I did hear Frank mention that the mole in the police headquarters is an executive, but he's
yet to find out who it is.” He paused in thought, then questioned, “So, what did Zephyr give the
Gaudette family in exchange for this intel?”
“Zephyr started a business here in Chanaea, didn't he?” Armand leaned against the table. “He's got
plenty of connections and a large business portfolio. There are some places that need GDP, and
politicians are always looking to polish up their track record and climb the ladder in order to better help
the Gaudette family.”
At the mention of this, Cooper suddenly recalled something else. “I heard Eurydice's cousin is about to
become the minister of the Department of Public Information. Wouldn't you be at a disadvantage if the
Gaudette family were to gain control of the media?”
“No,” Armand replied with a cryptic smile.
