Chapter 198 Revenge
Genevieve stood still in shock. She did not expect Patrick to risk it all and head to Xedells to kill Marilyn’s
father. Moreover, he did all of this just to stand up for her.
What have I done in this lifetime to deserve this? Besides, what is it that prompted a man to go against
his brother in order to protect me?
Genevieve wanted to cry, and her eyes started to turn red. She held up her phone and thought of typing
something.
Yet, she did not know what to type. Instead, she pressed a finger on the screen, and a string of W’s
appeared.
Initially, Patrick wanted to wipe the tears away from the corners of Genevieve’s eyes. He moved his
hands, but he never raised them. “You got hurt a few times because I didn’t protect you in the past. It’ll
never happen again.”
He paused, then continued, “Armand might continue to enable Marilyn’s behavior, but I won’t play nice if
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtshe dares to harm you. All right, Genev. It’s really late. Go to sleep. We’ll leave by ship tomorrow
morning.”
Genevieve nodded.
She did not feel like sleeping after washing up, so she sat by her bed and typed on her phone.
When you called me that night, my phone ran out of battery and died. Why was Cooper with you?
When Cooper hit the police car and took her away that day, he kept apologizing to her in the car. His
gaze was filled with immense regret and guilt, and this puzzled Genevieve.
Cooper was utterly cold and merciless when he killed her parents and when he dealt with her.
That day, however, she saw the pain and anguish in his expression.
Patrick glanced at her phone and said, “It’s because I told him the truth about the destruction of the
Sutton family.”
Genevieve was taken aback and stared at him in disbelief.
Patrick turned on his laptop, placed it on Genevieve’s lap, and explained, “Over twenty years ago,
Samantha was in a relationship with Cooper’s father, Zachary Sutton. The two were about to get married
when Zachary backed out and dumped Samantha. As a result, she was devastated.”
He added, “When Zachary got married, Samantha felt resentful. So, she ordered a few men to set fire to
the Sutton family’s residence and burn all members of the family alive… You do know that Old Mrs.
Faulkner loves Samantha very much. As soon as she learned of that incident, she discussed it with Old
Mr. Faulkner. They dealt with the men who committed arson for Samantha and covered up the entire
incident completely.”
As Patrick explained, Genevieve read the emails. She was horrified by their content.
She still did not believe her father would kill the members of the Sutton family in order to benefit his
business. However, her parents were killed by Cooper, and she could not find anybody else who knew
the truth.
Genevieve did not know where to begin in her investigation.
Never in a million years did she imagine that it was Samantha who did all of this!
Patrick looked at Genevieve and continued, “Samantha had no idea that Cooper survived and got
adopted by your father. She hated the Sutton family and Zachary, so she hatched a plan that lasted for

twenty years. Cooper is her pawn, and she had him wrapped around her little finger.”
Patrick went on, “Someone has been spying on Cooper ever since he was adopted by the Rachford
family. Moreover, it was Samantha who made sure you got to know and befriended Erica when you went
to university. She knows what Erica is like, and she concocted a plan to make Erica obtain information
about you and Cooper…”
Although Patrick never witnessed what Samantha did, he sensed a chill running down his spine as he
talked about her schemes.
He could not believe that a woman could hold a grudge for so many years.
“Previously, didn’t you ask me who ordered Queenie to hurt you?” Then, Patrick lifted his hands which
were resting on his kneecaps. “It was Samantha. She probably knew your marriage to her nephew,
Armand, was just for show. Thus, she wasn’t bothered by this and helped Queenie in secret.
Nevertheless, Queenie turned out to be useless.”
He added, “I guess Armand has already found out about this, but he won’t pursue it further. After all,
Samantha is his aunt. She’s one of the two people in his life who supported him and allowed him to take
control of the Faulkner family.”
