Chapter 176 Mostly Choosing The First Option
In the office of Specter Corporation’s CEO, Cooper kept his gaze fixed on the phone.
He was taken aback for a moment when he saw Genevieve’s message. He texted: Didn’t you take it with
you when you returned to the Rachford residence to pack your stuff back then?
Genevieve replied: You got people to wreck the house, so everything was gone by the time I returned.
What could I have packed up?
Although Cooper despised the Rachford family greatly, he only asked a few workers to clean up the trace
that Genevieve left at the Rachford residence after she had packed up her things and left the place.
I didn’t order them to wreck the entire house, though. I recall that the day after the Rachford residence
was cleared, Erica was wearing one of Genevieve’s favorite necklaces. Erica probably had said
something to the housekeepers and taken possession of all Genevieve’s jewelry and bags.
Genevieve sent another message: If you’ve sold it, tell me who you’ve sold it to, so I can buy it myself.
Cooper texted back: Give me a second. Let me ask about it.

assistant, Christopher, “Head off to Erica’s place now and look for a reddish-brown violin.”
“Mr. Sutton, I don’t have the key to that mansion-”
Before Christopher could finish his sentence, Cooper cut him off coldly, “Bring someone over to break the
door open then.” Cooper paused for a while before he instructed, “Search the jewelry in the drawer as
well and keep all the Van Cleef and Arpels jewelry in a jewelry box properly.”
“All right, Mr. Sutton.”
Upon hanging up, Cooper then sent Genevieve a message that read: Have you come back from your
business trip?
He sent another message: Genev.
The next second, he saw an exclamation sign pop up in front of the last message he sent.
The notification read: You can no longer call or send messages to this recipient. Please add the contact
to continue chatting.
She deleted my contact…
Staring at the notification, Cooper could not help but smile wryly. Genevieve would not have added me if
it wasn’t for the violin.
Ever since Cooper discovered the strange death of Jacob, he was skeptical. Is it possible that the
Rachford family had nothing to do with the extermination of my family back then?
Since there was no clue about Jacob’s death, that doubt deepened in Cooper’s heart as time passed.
Moreover, he would always dream about the scene of his argument with Genevieve, the latter having
cried her heart out and claimed, “My father would never do that kind of thing! If he really did that, he
could’ve ended your life then to prevent problems in the future. Why did he bring you back instead?”
Thus, Cooper had been doing some self-consolation in his heart. For the sake of his image, he pitied me,
so he took me home and treated me well.
However, as time went by, Cooper could not comfort himself in that way anymore.
If Genevieve’s father had killed my entire family, it would be undeniable proof of his ruthlessness. But
why did he adopt me and let me have the chance to take revenge on him? Hmm. I can only blame
myself for being blinded by the blood feud that I’ve never thought of that question.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRight as Cooper was lost in thought and filled with remorse, the phone on the desk suddenly vibrated.
It was a call from Christopher. “Mr. Sutton, I’ve found the violin. I’m asking someone to bring a jewelry
box to pack up the jewelry you mentioned.”
Cooper let out a sigh of relief. “Okay. Bring them to the office when you’re done.”
After ending the call, Cooper instantly saved Genevieve’s phone number to his WhatsApp. Since he was
afraid that the latter would not respond to him, he texted: I’ve found the violin.
A minute later, Genevieve replied: Where should I get it from you?
Cooper paused for a moment before texting back: I won’t be free until the afternoon as I still have some
work. Let’s meet at Point Restaurant at six o’clock in the evening. You shall treat me to a meal.
He added: Or you can come to Specter Corporation to see me.
