Chapter 165 Anthony forgot everything. He forgot what had happened in the last three years, as well as Genevieve. Samantha remarked sarcastically. “Forgetting can be a blessing. Mr. Hoffman, you’re truly wise.” She insinuated that Anthony was feigning amnesia to avoid responsibility for the cruise ship accident. Genevieve sneered in her mind. ‘This reason is childish and ridiculous.” Quincey looked pale. A sense of anger swirled in her heart. She looked up at Genevieve and voiced her thoughts. “Genevieve you know resent us. If you like Anthony, you should just speak up. Don’t fault us for not treating you well since you masked your identity and married into the Hoffman family. You only have yourself to blame for fooling us.” Genevieve smiled. There was a coldness lurking behind her lips. Before Samantha became angry, Genevieve remarked lightly, “I had no choice. My family despised the Hoffman family. I was foolish enough to marry into it, but I never imagined I wasn’t even appreciated after donating bone marrow. Initially, I thought Mrs. Hoffman came from an ordinary background and would likely get along well with me. However, it turns out Mrs. Hoffman looks down on those of humble origins the most, despite her own modest beginnings.” “You…” In just a few words, Quincey’s face turned livid. There were many people around. Quincey felt her face burning. She trembled with anger. The topic she wanted to avoid the most was her humble family background. But Genevieve kept poking at her sore spot. If Genevieve wasn’t the daughter of the Lawrence family, Quincey felt like she would rip her mouth off her face. Anthony felt a mix of emotions as he stood aside and listened to their conversation. Chapter 165 He hadn’t expected things to unfold like this. Samantha smiled gently but scolded, “Gen, you are the daughter of the Lawrence family and the CEO of Lawrence Group. I’d prefer if you refrain from mentioning your past.” Genevieve smiled obediently and shrugged, “Okay, Mom. I’ll go find Selene first.” Samantha nodded. After Genevieve left. Quincey’s expression brightened up. But she didn’t want to stay. Seeing this, Anthony had no choice but to send her back. Samantha walked her to the door generously. In the eyes of outsiders, the Lawrence family was forgiving and frank. In contrast, Quincey’s departure mid–way through the banquet seemed quite petty. The better stood out clearly. Darrell chatted with Anthony for a while and was pulled over by others. Selene was excited to attend the banquet and almost lost her voice. She watched as Genevieve walked toward her and hugged her. –“Boo–hoo, you scared me to death. Luckily, you’re fine. I never believed that you would die!” Selene said. Even though the events on the cruise ship were kept secret, gossip still managed to leak out. Selene wasn’t sure Genevieve had died, but she didn’t bring it up to avoid upsetung Darrell and Samantha. Genevieve smiled and took a sip of the champagne. “I’m quite blessed. Of course I would live.” Selene asked Genevieve a few more questions, and Genevieve told her what she had told Darrell. Selene couldn’t help but sigh. After sighing, she gritted her teeth and said, “You have no idea. Not long after your accident, my hospital friend Chapter 165 +5 told me that Anthony woke up with drug–induced amnesia after half a month of hospitalization. He conveniently forgot about the three years he spent with you. Later, rumors surfaced that Anthony and Andrea got engaged. It’s absurd! I seriously doubt if he was faking it all.” ‘Drug–induced amnesia?‘ Genevieve suddenly remembered Anthony’s expression and reaction when she met him at Atharia. “Something’s not right. ‘But Anthony has always been neutral with his emotions. He was probably worried that word of his health would impact the company, so I couldn’t discern anything from his demeanor. “Today, he voluntarily admitted that he had amnesia, and it turned out to be true, Genevieve thought. A trace of resentment and anger crossed Genevieve’s heart as she fell into deep thoughts. ‘How could Anthony sail through this period under the guise of amnesia while I nearly died in the sea, getting imprisoned and shot, before finally managing to get my life back on track? ‘If it weren’t for his invitation, I wouldn’t have been on that cruise ship in the first place. “If it hadn’t been for his own sister and fiancée, I wouldn’t have gone overboard. “Everything seemed to have nothing to do with him, but it was all about him,‘ Genevieve thought. A complex and resentful emotion grew even more in her heart. Right then, Jeffrey came over with a smile. He glanced at Selene, nodded, and then looked at Genevieve. Hel raised his eyebrows and felt happy from the bottom of his heart. “Gen, it’s your first day in the company tomorrow. Let me give you a gift. What do you want?” he asked. Jeffrey was always straightforward. Genevieve didn’t shy away. Her mood brightened instantly. She put down the glass in her hand, took his arm, and said with a smile, “Jeff, I want a private plane. I’ll shortly be CEO and can’t travel too modestly. By the way, I also want the penthouse you bought near the company. I’d like to live closer. Of course, I also want the shares of the IT company you bought privately…” Selene looked at her in shock. She had never seen a socialite who was so straightforward as Genevieve. Chapter 165 Genevieve asked for private jets, houses, company shares, and antiques without the slightest hint of embarrassment on her face. Meanwhile, Genevieve was still talking about what she wanted. Jeffrey looked a little helpless. He couldn’t help but cough and interrupted her, “Gen, don’t be late for the meeting tomorrow morning.” Then he turned around and left. If he didn’t leave now, he would probably go bankrupt. Genevieve stamped regretfully, “I haven’t finished yet!” Selene knew Genevieve’s status in the Lawrence family and couldn’t help shaking her head. “Do you know what my mother would say if I told her I want these things?” Genevieve was puzzled and said no. Selene smiled, “She’ll probably ask me to go to the church and request them from the higher beings.” Genevieve laughed. Her eyes and eyebrows reflected a thin layer of splintered light under the bright lights. Her pride and beauty were captivating. Standing not far away, Anthony felt his heart skip a beat at the scene. ‘The term ‘ex–wife” really does carry a tinge of regret,‘ he remarked softly in his own mind, And Anthony seemed to be a little sad. Not long after the banquet ended, Genevieve changed her clothes and came the hotel. A cold rain skimmed over the ground, turning into a drizzle in an instant. A few fallen leaves floated in the damp, cold water on the ground. Darrell and Samantha had gone home early, so Genevieve didn’t ask the driver to send her home. Genevieve’s new residence was Jeffrey’s large penthouse. Jeffrey had plenty of places to live in, so he wouldn’t be stingy. Her e gave Genevieve the password and keys before he left. The banquet wasn’t far from her new place, and the area had good security. She wanted to walk back slowly by herself. The raindrops fell on her coat, but she didn’t care. The feeling of freedom was terrific. She hummed a song as she walked. But a few minutes later, a warm suit was put on her shoulders. She stopped and looked at the man behind her.
