Before Anthony left, he said this.
Genevieve froze for a moment and then understood.
Since Jeffrey was missing and Mad Dog lost his chips, he was naturally eager to find him back.
Otherwise, how could the deal be carried out in a few days?
Genevieve took a deep breath and turned into the hotel.
Jasper was one of many in the hotel.
Lucas was also there.
Jasper walked over and looked at her with a sigh of relief, “Ms. Lawrence, you’re back. Mr. Simpson stayed here all night and said he wanted to see you, but he didn’t let us call you.”
Genevieve paused briefly and smiled politely at Lucas, saying, “Professor Simpson, I’m sorry for forgetting to tell
you I won’t return. I hope it hasn’t caused you any undue concern.”
Despite his weariness, Lucas maintained a serene and gentle demeanor, “It’s alright. I’m glad to see you’re safe. Truthfully, my concerns were unwarranted. With Mr. Hoffman accompanying you, there’s no way you’d be in danger.”
He seemed to laugh at himself and then returned to his usual look.
Genevieve was a little embarrassed and said, “Professor Simpson, it’s inconvenient to bother you constantly. I will move out from today.
When Anthony came, he would go mad at any time.
If she were still living in Lucas’s penthouse, who knows what crazy things Anthony would do!
It was better to save trouble. She thought she should move out as soon as possible.
She couldn’t have lived here forever.

Lucas stared at her silently for a few seconds, emotions swirling in his eyes.
He said nothing.
Genevieve smiled, “I’ll live near the company.”
Lucas smiled faintly, “OK, feel free to contact me whenever you need assistance.”
The deal time with Mad Dog was just around the corner.
Lucas put all his energy into the layout.
Lucas tampered with the weapons Mad Dog had requested.
Lucas wouldn’t allow his weapons to hurt himself.
Genevieve was a little nervous.
Lucas didn’t let her go to the scene, only saying it was dangerous.
Genevieve nervously waited in the office for Lucas to return from a meeting.
Irven pushed the door open and came in.
She looked unhappy.
“Genevieve, I heard that Anthony is your ex–husband. You have such a rich and powerful ex–husband, and you let Lucas work for you?”
Genevieve froze, stood there, and frowned, “Professor Simpson is helping me, but not working for me!”
She thought, ‘Obviously, the Simpson family also wants to deal with Mad Dog. Assisting me would be a straightforward matter for them.”
She was grateful to Lucas.
But he knew that if this were Lucas’s impulse, Bill would not allow it to happen.
After discovering the truth, Irven was only angry for his best friend, “Isn’t that working for you? Do you know who

Mad Dog is? How many peacekeepers end up in trouble every year? He could have easily avoided it but took the risk for you. And here you are, sitting idly and spewing ungrateful remarks?”
Genevieve felt gloomy and uncomfortable.
She knew it was dangerous, but should they give up because it was unsafe?
She didn’t cause the danger, so why did he blame her?
Genevieve pursed her lips and didn’t want to argue with Irven here.
She glanced at Irven with distant eyes and was about to walk out.
Irven abruptly said, “Moreover, if you don’t accompany Lucas this time, Mad Dog will undoubtedly sense something amiss and become desperate. It’ll lead to Lucas’s untimely demise, leaving him without a proper
burial.”
Genevieve paused and felt terrible slightly.
It felt like a ton of bricks hitting her in the chest, leaving her in agony.
She balled up her fists and stormed out.
After watching her leave, Irven entered Lucas’s lounge to find the safe.
Genevieve entered the elevator with red eyes.
The elevator went up.
She arrived at the door.
Before exiting, she caught sight of dozens of mercenaries clad in military green, busily transporting items with a stern demeanor, signaling the imminent outbreak of conflict.
Lucas was talking to his men.
Standing in the middle of such a crowd, he looked somewhat out of place.
He should be clad in elegant, handsome attire, standing proudly on the podium, and sharing laughter with his

students.
She took him down, didn’t she?
Genevieve looked at him absent–mindedly.
In the next instant, she glimpsed Lucas’s deep, gentle eyes.
He walked over with a smile and said, “Why did you come out? I’ll arrange for someone to escort you back later. I’ll let you know when the result comes tomorrow.”
Genevieve pursed her lips and smiled back with determination, “I’ll go with you, Professor Simpson. I will protect myself. Give me a gun.”
Lucas looked at her briefly and smiled, “You can’t shoot anyone.”
She was holding an AK, but she missed every shot.
Her shooting skills were terrible!
Genevieve furrowed her brow and spoke urgently, “I just can’t use that one well. But with other guns, I’m like a
natural!”
Lucas smiled and said, “I know. But don’t go there. It’s not funny.”
Thinking of Irven’s words, Genevieve felt uncomfortable, so she said, “Professor Simpson…”
Lucas interrupted her firmly with his gesture, “It’s settled. Where is Irven?”
Genevieve said, “In your office.”
Lucas was quiet for a second and frowned slightly.
Then he smiled and strode in.
When Irven handed the thing to Robbin, his expression darkened slightly, and he asked with a hint of irritation, “Why on earth do you need these?”
Robbin took the USB flash drive and stuffed it into her pocket.

She looked indifferent and frivolous, “Don’t worry about it. Of course, I can help you.”
“If your brother knows it…”
“Just don’t let him know, okay? Besides, Genevieve was always in his office, and even if he knew it had been lost, he would suspect her only.”
Robbin was a complicated person.
Sometimes, she was so pitiful that it seemed like everyone in the world owed her something.
But at times, she could be so indifferent that she’d brush aside all the kindness and emotions surrounding her.
Irven gave her a piercing look and ground his teeth, saying, “Remember your promise.”
Robbin’s face tightened briefly, but she held her tongue and simply chuckled, saying, “Are you serious about breaking off our engagement? Fine, I’ll assist you.”
Robbin was indifferent to Irven, and no one thought that there would be any sparks between them.
Even for contact, Carrie was always behind them, urging them to cultivate their feelings.
That was what they thought of each other.
Robbin turned around and left.
Suddenly, she saw Lucas standing not far away.
Robbin’s face suddenly changed, and she was a little flustered.
When Irven saw it, he also panicked for a moment but soon calmed down and walked over, “Have you got everything ready?”
Lucas turned his eyes around them and then looked at Robbin, “Don’t be impulsive when making decisions, or you will always regret it.”
After saying that, Robbin’s face turned pale.
She was a bit tense and clenched her fists so tightly that it hurt her palms.
