Chapter 742

Chapter 742Nathalia didn't feel like talking to him anymore since he was clearly ignoring her. After finishing her
spaghetti, she placed her fork down and chose a tidy guest room to sleep in.
Cooper walked out of the study only to see Nathalia gone and Armand with a dark expression on his
face.
He could already guess how angry Nathalia had made Armand and smiled bitterly before saying,
“You're not alone. When I went to the police station, I felt like I'd get an aneurysm from how angry I
felt.”
In a more solemn tone, Cooper said, “This alter ego of hers is too powerful. I'm afraid that we'll lose
Genev soon if we don't get rid of her.”
Armand could tell even if Cooper hadn't said anything.
Genevieve wasn't a pushover, but the more abrasive personality traits she had were always reserved
for those she found familiar. To strangers and acquaintances, she was always mild and pleasant. She
dressed well and liked to wear certain more revealing or tight-fitting pieces sometimes, but it was
because she liked it.
Her sister Nathalia, on the other hand, liked to boss people around and was selfish. She also liked to
show herself off and parade her good looks around just to get attention.
Armand narrowed his eyes at the memory of Nathalia's actions. “She blames her lost chance at life on
Genevieve. Her resentment built up over the years and now that she finally has a chance, she's not
going to let it go. She enjoys adrenaline and excitement, yes, but she enjoys the attention she getsmost of all.”
“Exactly.” Cooper sighed at how accurate Armand's analysis was. “If the footage of the bar incident got
released online, I bet she would love all the attention she would get.”
Luckily, he had rushed to the police station right after the police had done a whole check-up on the
situation. If not, things would really have gone south.
Armand seemed to have a question on the tip of his tongue, but he swallowed it back.
Cooper didn't notice his hesitation and said, “Jack got his subordinates to contact some world-
renowned hypnotists. He wants them to hypnotize Nathalia to get rid of her. He really, really hates her.”
That afternoon after work, Cooper had asked Bertilla to send him some research on dissociative
personality disorder.
He flipped through the files carefully. Dissociative personality disorder had been officially recognized
since the eighteenth century and there were about two hundred thousand people who were currently
diagnosed.
There were hypnotists who had been hired to cure these aforementioned patients.
However, if Nathalia wasn't even afraid of Jack's threats, why would she be afraid of a hypnotist?
Armand remained silent and Cooper turned to look at his calm visage. “Are you just this calm normally,
or did she just piss you off that badly?” Armand replied indifferently, “There's no use in getting pissed. It's still Genev's body, anyway.”
Cooper couldn't argue with that.
“I just find one thing very strange,” Armand said in slight confusion as he looked out the window.
“Based on how much Lilian hated Jack, she should have tried to kill Genev when she kidnapped her or
at least used her to threaten Jack.”
They both recalled the last time that Lilian's subordinates had tried to kill Genevieve and very nearly
succeeded.
“Why didn't she do anything this time?”
Timothy had been the one to contact the hospital when Genevieve's mother had been pregnant with
twins. Lilian had no way of getting her hands on Genevieve's mother's pregnancy test details, so she
wouldn't have known.
Even if she had known about the twins, then why was Lilian so sure that Genevieve had an alter ego?
This was just too absurd.
Even Cooper, who was so smart, couldn't figure out what Lilian was up to, let alone Armand.
Cooper took his glasses off and began massaging the bridge of his nose. “I already injected Genev
with the antidote. What's your plan?” He glanced at Armand. “Are you going to keep using this face?”
If Genevieve had never been kidnapped, and if Nathalia had never shown herself, then Armand could
have made up some fake death for Bruce. Then, he could appear in front of Genevieve and the kids in
his real form.
Armand fell silent for a second before saying, “I'll keep using this identity for a while. I need to finish
some stuff up.”
“What, like your marriage with Sylvie?” Cooper asked jokingly.
Armand turned to glare at him coldly.
“Okay, got it. No jokes,” Cooper said as he lifted his hands in mock surrender.
After having to take care of so many things today, Cooper felt like his brain had melted from all the
stress. After telling Armand that he would bring Nathalia to Landon's place tomorrow, he went back to
his room to sleep.
After standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window for a long time, Armand lightly treaded to Nathalia's
room.
The door was unlocked and he walked in with just a twist of the doorknob.
