Submitting To My Billionaire Ex-Wife by Allison Mild ( Genevieve)
Chapter 208

Chapter 208 

Seeing Anthony in his usual self, Genevieve smiled and waved Goldie’s paw, saying, “Thank you!” 

Goldie still barked ferociously. 

The next second, Genevieve put the dog down and let it wander. 

Unexpectedly, Goldie appeared bewildered and spun over and over, emitting a yelp and sticking out its tongue at Genevieve. 

It had planned to make a scene, not anticipating things to settle. 

Alas, Genevieve walked away. 

Anthony looked condescendingly at the dog, all ready to grab it. Frightened, Goldie jumped backward and fled disorderly. 

Gone was the battle between them. 

A snort escaped Anthony as his expression became steely. 

Meanwhile, Genevieve changed clothes in the cloakroom, stumbling upon two strange haute couture suitcases. 

She was confused, for she did not recall asking for those clothes. 

Anthony walked in and said softly, “Didn’t you invite me to live together? I asked someone to bring some of my 

clothes over.” 

Genevieve’s mien did a one–eighty. “Didn’t you say no?” 

‘Why’d he go back on his word like this?‘ she wondered. 

Anthony’s face darkened. He had yet to say no. Instead, he had mentioned that he would come when he had time to spare. 

He imagined what would have happened should he had too much time.

Yet, he might have sounded a tad rushed. 

He then said with a sullen look, “Are you upset?” 

Genevieve blinked, forcing a grin. “No, I’m over the moon. I was just surprised, so I spaced out.”

She walked over and circled the two big boxes, feeling increasingly depressed while pondering, ‘Duh! I’m happy. enough on my own.” 

Still, on second thought, she figured that he could do nothing in bed, anyway, so he could stay all he wanted. 

Then again, she would not want to stay with that man under the same roof for too long. 

In her book, it was time to speed up her plans. 

Once Anthony fell for her, Genevieve would make Andrea lose her most–coveted title as the lady of the Hoffman family and make Lauraine pay. 

Before that happened, she would bear with it. 

Tilting her head and thinking, Genevieve asked, “You need me to unpack them for you?” 

Her asking was merely out of courtesy. She was going to leave it to the maid. 

Anthony nodded nonetheless. “Well, I’ll leave it to you, then.” 

Genevieve’s mouth twitched. 

She wanted to slap herself. 

Freezing for a bit, she smiled and began to unpack the boxes. 

While unpacking, she secretly called him names. 

That guy did not bring along too much clothing, only his regular outfit. 

There were several shirts and trousers of the same style but with different cufflinks. 

However, the dark blue cufflinks in the most conspicuous spot seemed familiar to her. Without paying much

attention, she stuffed them into the drawer. 

Just like that, she worked all night. 

Upon rising, she saw Anthony standing at the door with a cup of coffee. He looked at her gently and warmly, poles apart from his behavior during the day. 

From time to time, though, he seemed rather dejected and cold. 

Genevieve frowned. “Why are you wearing your legs out? You might as well take a seat and watch.” 

Her voice was laced with resentment as she dropped that sarcasm. 

Anthony voiced indifferently, “Genevieve, have you helped other guys unpack, too?” 

Genevieve froze. “Not everyone’s as thick–skinned as you.” 

She used to unpack his clothes for him, but after the divorce, she found out that it was a servant’s job. 

‘How dumb of me to have done all that!‘ she grumbled inwardly. 

Anthony lowered his eyes, concealing his complex feelings. 

‘What a relief. At least only I got to see this tender side of her but not other men. They’d have to get through me first,’ he mused. 

Genevieve stretched. “I’m gonna take a shower. Make yourself at home.” 

She was exhausted. Being with him turned her off, so she would pretend that he was not there: 

Anthony smiled. “I have some work on. Can I use the study?” 

Genevieve paused. “The guest room and the small study next to it are all yours.” 

Anthony raised his eyebrows. 

The meaning behind the lady’s words was as clear as day–he would be spending the night in the guest room.

Early in the morning, Genevieve was woken by a call from Darrell. “Mrs. Lawrence wants to go shopping, but your mom and I have something on. Bring her shopping, will you? She’s old and can’t walk long, so she won’t take you the whole day. See her home when she’s tired.“” 

Genevieve replied sleepily. “You’ll send her here?” 

“Yeah, set your work aside first.” Darrell hung up and did not even probe into the matter the night before. 

Genevieve washed herself up and stepped out. 

Hearing some noises in the kitchen, she thought the maid had clocked in early. 

Never did she expect to be greeted by Anthony’s towering back standing against the sun as if glowing elegantly. 

Gracefully, he cut some toast and fruits. 

Next to him was Goldie sitting on the floor enjoying some dog food. 

It would glare at Anthony from time to time, showing that it would never accept him. 

Witnessing that, Genevieve trembled slightly. 

Bitterness swelled within her, catching her off guard. 

She began seeing Anthony in a new light. 

If anything, she was shocked to see how far he could go for his other half. 

Because in the past, she had experienced none of that. 

No longer did she care after having had a taste of it. 

Soon after, Anthony noticed her, thus walking over and pulling out a seat for her. “You’re up. Let’s have breakfast, shall we?” 

Genevieve was pretty sure he did not slip into her master bedroom the night before. 

She reckoned that perhaps it was because he was facing problems in bed.

Such thought relieved Genevieve’s uneasiness. 

She felt sorry for Anthony for having to keep that embarrassing detail to himself. 

She walked over and sat down. “Thank you. I didn’t know you could make breakfast, Mr. Hoffman.” 

Anthony’s smile froze as though he had realized something. 

He presumed that Genevieve was surprised because he had never made her food before. 

Feeling depressed, he became more determined to treat her well. 

“Let me know what you think. I’ll cook often if it suits your taste,” he pronounced. 

Genevieve was astounded by his change and peeked at him unwittingly. 

Then again, toast and fruits could be easily prepared. 

She did not think she could tell the difference in taste. 

Rather, she missed the bagel and pudding the maid used to make. 

She could not lie and claim that the breakfast was nice.

Clearing her throat, she stated with a smile, “The servant will do the cooking. You don’t have to trouble yourself.” 

Anthony’s face darkened. Genevieve held his hand and cooed, “I’ll be heartbroken if you wear yourself out.” 

She felt like a jerk to blurt out such words without even blinking. 

Actually, she felt sick, not to mention getting impatient. 

She dreaded that she would give herself away with her acting. 

Anthony looked softened instantly and held her hand. “Genevieve, you- 

Before he could continue, his phone on the table chimed. 

Genevieve glanced at it, only to see the caller ID “Andrea” flashing.

‘What a bummer!‘ she mused, could not help rolling her eyes. 

Her grimace stunned Anthony. His gaze turned gloomy as he uttered, “Let me get this.”
