Chapter 797
During lunch, Johanna asked Genevieve, “Didn't you go overseas together with Armand? Where is he?”
“Daddy is busy making money to buy me a castle!” Amanda declared cheerily, causing Johanna to be lost in
thoughts.
Woah! Your dad can afford to buy you a small country, let alone a castle. Moreover, Uncle Cooper is so filthy rich
that he can buy you a castle made of diamonds if that's what you want.
Nonetheless, when she noticed the grim look in Genevieve's eyes, she didn't press on and changed the topic
instead.
In the midst of their lunch, the housekeeper came into the dining room through the main door, her hands filled with
shopping bags. “Ms. Joule, these are toys and clothes bought by Mr. Jensen for Ms. Asel—”
“Throw them out!” Johanna interrupted with a frosty expression.
With an acknowledging grunt, the housekeeper did as she was told.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGenevieve couldn't help but ask, “Didn't Charlotte explain herself to you? She uttered those words while intoxicated,
while it was her father who arranged for the press to release the news. Thus, she has nothing to do with Timothy at
all. Do you still not trust him?”
When Charlotte, upon receiving Genevieve's call, realized she was the source of the conflict between Johanna and
Timothy, she hurried to clear the air with Johanna.
Preempting Johanna, Cooper replied with a wry smile, “It isn't about that. There's something else.”
“What is it?” Genevieve asked curiously.
“Yeah, yeah.” With her widened eyes, Amanda looked at Cooper. “Uncle Cooper, why is Aunt Jojo mad at Uncle
Tim? Hurry up and tell me!”
Lucian gave her head a knock. “Kids shouldn't stick their nose into the affairs of adults.”
Amanda, with a pout on her lips, gave him the side-eye and explained, “I just want our godmother and godfather to
reconcile. Otherwise, Asel would be sad if she can't see her daddy. I'm sorry. Uncle Tim isn't Lucian's godfather; he
should be Lucian's father-in-law instead.”
When Amanda covered her mouth to hide her laughter, Lucian responded with a snort.
Once lunch was over, the nanny pushed a pram with Asel inside and led the children out into the garden for a walk.
Cooper informed Genevieve softly, “Timothy slept with another woman.”
At that, Genevieve's hand, with a coffee cup in it, froze.
Two weeks ago, Cooper received a call from the night shift manager of Imperial Club, telling him that Timothy
seemed to be in a bad mood and was drinking non-stop in a private room.
Due to a thunderstorm that fateful night, he instructed the manager to watch over Timothy because he had to stay
with the twins at Swallow Garden.
Little did he expect to receive a call from the same manager the next morning with news that Timothy had refused
to be sent home by his driver. Instead, he brought a woman to a hotel.
Filled with a sense of dread, Cooper rushed to the hotel, only to discover that the situation was worse than he
thought.
The woman Timothy had slept with was Mindy Manson, a well-known figure in the art circles. The night before, she
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmhad taken some selfies and shared them with her friends. It was from there that the pictures went viral on social
media.
When the news caught Johanna's attention, her first response was to call Cooper and ask him if he had gone to look
for Timothy.
All this while, she never cared about his past relationships. However, now that they had become parents, his
behavior disgusted her and destroyed all the residual feelings she harbored for him.
Whatever explanation he had, she refused to listen.
When Timothy, who had changed his number, called her on one occasion, she calmly warned him, “If you ever call
me again, I'll go overseas with Asel and marry someone else. Let's see how you stop me then.”
From then on, Timothy didn't dare call her anymore. The most he could do was to come by frequently and peer into
the mansion.
Genevieve fell into deep thought after hearing the story. “From our drinking sessions with Timothy, it's evident that
he can hold his liquor very well. Can there be some other explanation?”
“I've checked the surveillance feeds from the club, and they show Timothy leaving the place sober,” Cooper
related.
“He had run into Mindy along the corridor and spoke to her before both of them left the club. Mindy corroborated
the events by saying that it was he who started flirting with her.”
