SWNOVELS Chapter 35
Chapter 35
Genevieve whirled around immediately. She noticed that there was a piece of metal shard pierced into Armand‘s back. His back
was covered with blood,
That made Genevieve realize why she could smell the stench of blood.
Genevieve‘s heart ached when she saw how badly injured Armand was because of her. She hastily pulled the silk scarf off her
neck and pressed it on Armand‘s wound, attempting to stop the bleeding
“Patrick, get help!”
“All right!” Patrick was about to hail a car when Steven arrived to pick Armand up.
The expression on Steven‘s face darkened when he witnessed the scene. Without delay, he let Patrick drive his car to the
hospital while Steven himself stayed behind to handle the mess.
The car sped to the nearest hospital,
In the backseat, Genevieve positioned Armand such that he was leaning on her. Both Genevieve‘s hands were putting pressure
on the man‘s back.
Her silk scarf had long been soaked in blood, but still, there was blood sccping from Armand‘s injury
Even though he was badly wounded, Armand‘s expression remained indiferent
He could vaguely feel that the hands pressing against his back were trembling. He caught a glimpse of Genevieve from the
corners of his eyes and noticed that she was biting her lips. “It‘s just some metal
shard, not a bullet. Don‘t worry.”
Genevieve grunted in response. However, she found it ditticult to ease her worries while looking at the large piece of metal shard
piercing into Armand‘s back
Soon enough, the smart–looking Timothy, who was wearing a white robe, came into view. He had been waiting in the emergency
room ever since he received the notice
Timothy swept a glance at Armand‘s wound, then gestured toward a hospital bed with his chun “Foran injury as minor as this, I‘ll
just handle it here. Otherwise, we‘ll make an unnecessary mess in the operating room, and someone would have to clean it up.”
Genevieve was rendered speechless.
The wound caused by the metal shard was deep. When Timothy removed it. Gencricio witnessed how Armand‘s inner flesh was
also being drawn out. The bones indemcath his skin weir exposed Genevieve‘s heart raced as she wimessed that gory scene
Earlier, if it were not for the fact that Armand had pushed her to the ground and shielded here then Genevieve would be the one
who was seriously wounded then due to the explosion

work of that person.
“Armand, congratulations.” Timothy‘s lips arched up into a smile. The doctor teased his patient cheekily. “You hit the jackpot
again.”
“Shut up.” Armand shot a cold glare at Timothy.
Timothy cowered in response and gave up teasing Armand. Once Timothy was done bandaging Armand, the doctor promptly
tossed his surgical gloves onto a plate.
“Armand, will you be checking in to the hospital or...”
“It‘s just a minor injury, so there‘s no need for that.” Armand accepted the clothes handed out by Patrick and swiftly changed into
them.
“It‘s better that way, since I don‘t need to arrange a room for you.” Timothy shrugged. He then turned his head toward
Genevieve. “Genev, are you staying with Armand?”
There was only silence in return.
Then and there, Genevieve thought that the doctor, who had tied his hair in a ponytail, was too friendly with her. They had only
met twice, yet he was already calling her by a nickname.
Ultimately, Genevieve nodded her head. “That‘s right.”
“Well then, I‘ll have to trouble you to look after Armand for the time being. Don‘t feed him any spicy food. Never allow him to
shower before his wound scabs completely. If he insists on having a shower...” Timothy paused. He then continued, “Then you
should help him with it!” There was a hint of teasing in his voice when he made the suggestion.
As soon as she heard that, Genevieve recalled the night she washed Armand‘s hair. She felt uneasy at once and mumbled
something unintelligible in response.
Once everything had settled down, Genevieve and the others returned to Swallow Garden. By the time they arrived, it was
already one o‘clock in the middle of the night
Genevieve soon discovered that Steven had returned as well. Once Armand had gone up to the second floor, Genevieve walked
over to Steven. She asked in a hushed voice, “Steven, have you found out the reason as to why the car exploded?”
She had been gripped with a question for a while. My car was fine. So why did it explode all of a sudden?
Then, Genevieve‘s lips twitched abruptly when she remembered a rumor about Armand.
Both of Armand‘s ex–wives had died soon after marrying him. As for Genevieve, it had been only several days since she married
Armand when her car exploded.
Steven seemed to have comprehended what went on in Genevieve‘s mind after examining the dark expression on her face.
“Mrs. Faulkner, there are many members of the Faulkner family who detest Mr. Faulkner. Hence, all the vehicles in the garage
have anti–explosive devices installed in them. However, the car you drove had been sent to a service center for maintenance
last week. I had been busy, and so I forgot to have Patrick examine the car.”
Patrick, who was nearby, rubbed his nose and then lowered his head. “It‘s my fault. I was careless.”
“Of course it is!” Steven stated, his face sullen. “I reminded you time and time again that whenever Mr.
Chapter 35
Faulkner or Mrs. Faulkner is heading out, you must inspect the car carefully before you drive them. Yet, you‘re always mindless
about it. If it weren‘t for Mr. Faulkner, things would‘ve ended up more serious than it is!”
As he said that, Steven pointed a finger toward the door. “Go home and ground yourself in the darkroom‘ for a week!”
