Although Specter Corporation wasn’t as well known, it was still one of the top hundredth major-listed
companies in the nation. The other companies wouldn’t have that much money even if they wanted to
acquire it. Yet Armand said he would get Specter Corporation back for her in half a year. Genevieve was
in dire need of backing at that point, and Armand was undoubtedly the best option. Hence, she wished
she could agree to his request immediately. However, the moment she calmed down, she recalled the
rumors about him and clenched her fists slightly. She heard that he had married twice, but both ended
with the bride dying a day before the wedding. Though none mentioned it upfront, people were secretly
gossiping that he brought about the death of his wives. A while later, Genevieve couldn’t help but ask,
“Why me?” Indeed, even if both Armand’s marriages were unsuccessful, the Faulkner family was
undeniably a great, aristocratic family. Whoever married into the family would surely get to live a life of

luxury. Many women would still want to try their luck despite knowing they might die. “Since you have no
family background and relatives, you won’t pose a threat to me,” Armand answered flatly. Genevieve was
at a loss for words at his reply. Shortly after, she remembered that his first fiancée was the youngest
daughter of the cruise ship tycoon in Xedells. The tycoon was so upset upon hearing the news of his
daughter’s death that he got admitted to the ICU twice. It took two billion from the Faulkner family to quell
this incident. The second woman was the daughter of the chairman of a famous food company. Her
death had allowed the chairman to reap a sum of money from the Faulkner family too. It was then that
Genevieve realized why he had been kind to her and helped her multiple times. Since I have no family
background and relatives, I’m easy to control. He doesn’t need to worry about getting a request for a
sizeable amount of compensation from the Rachford family if I suddenly die. Upon figuring out the
scheme underneath his calm voice, Genevieve instantly felt shivers down her spine. After taking a deep
breath, she replied with a look of determination, “All right, I’ll marry you.” As long as he can help me
avenge myself, I’ll even offer my life to him without hesitation. Armand’s cold expression finally turned
warm. “I’m free tomorrow morning. Bring along your household registry. We’ll head to the City Hall to
register our marriage.” Hearing that, Steven, who was driving, glanced at Armand from the rearview

mirror in shock. Didn’t Mr. Faulkner say that it would be a fake marriage? I’ve even got someone to
prepare a fake marriage certificate already. But now… “Okay.” Genevieve had nothing against his
arrangement. Since she had agreed to marry him, naturally, they would need to register their marriage.
Soon, they arrived at Swallow Garden. Genevieve followed Armand upstairs. When she saw him close
the door after entering his bedroom, a sense of relief washed over her instantly and her nervousness
dissipated. Upon returning to the guest room, she took a shower and went to bed. Unfortunately, she
didn’t have a good night’s sleep. As soon as she closed her eyes, she recalled her deceased parents,
Winifred’s cold corpse in the ward, and Cooper’s cold gaze. All of those were like a massive weight
pressed down on her chest, suffocating her. The next day, she woke up feeling slightly dizzy. When she
came downstairs after washing up, Armand was already sitting at the dining table, enjoying his breakfast
with Steven waiting at the side. “Morning, Ms. Rachford,” Steven greeted her. “Morning.” Genevieve
smiled and sat across from Armand. The breakfast was then swiftly served to her by the housekeeper.
Genevieve ate the bread absentmindedly. Occasionally, she would raise her head and sneak a glance at

Armand. He was having his meal gracefully with a tablet in one hand, not making any sound. After a
moment of deliberation, Genevieve piped up, “Mr. Faulkner…” “What?” When he saw the troubled look
she wore upon sweeping a glance across her face, he continued, “Are you regretting it now?” “No…”
Genevieve mustered up her courage and uttered, “Before we get our marriage certificate, can we sign a
contract? If I pass away in an accident after our marriage, you’ll need to take back Specter Corporation
within half a year as per contractual commitment and manage it in the name of the Rachford family. As
for the earned money, donate them to the children’s emergency fund.” “Is that all?” Her words seemed to
amuse Armand as he broke into a few chuckles. “Yes, that’s all.” Slightly embarrassed, Genevieve
pursed her lips. She knew Armand had helped her several times before and was aware that it was
shameless for her to make such demands when she could offer nothing in return. However, everyone
was afraid of death, and she was no exception. Armand instructed Steven, “Get the lawyer to prepare a
contract and send it over.” “Yes, Mr. Faulkner.” With that, Steven went to get it done immediately. Since
Armand was downstairs early, he had finished eating before the contract was sent over. Putting down the
napkin, he looked at Genevieve, who was sitting opposite him. Abruptly, he said, “You won’t die even if
you marry me.” I will never allow that to happen.
