My Flirtacious Husband (Genevieve and Armand)
Chapter 413 Do Not Sleep

Before the man could get in, Genevieve grabbed her phone and scrambled out of the vehicle.

The taxi made a U-turn and roared off. Before leaving, one man waved goodbye to her. "Gorgeous, prepare the money. We'll get the remainder from you three days later." F*ck you!

Genevieve cursed inwardly.

Nevertheless, she was terrified that they might change their mind and quickly ran away from the road to replace shelter.

It was only after the taxi disappeared from sight that Genevieve heaved a sigh of relief.

She removed a glove and was about to make a call when she realized there was no signal.

Glancing around, she discovered she was in a desolate area without any shelter around.

In order to not freeze to death, Genevieve had no choice but to walk around aimlessly to try to get a signal. She would fish her phone out occasionally to try to make a call. Genevieve wore only a silk nightgown and a wool coat when she came out of the hotel, so she was shivering in the cold now.

Fortunately, Jane had given her a pair of gloves previously. Otherwise, her fingers would've been frozen by now.

She tried walking in several directions but failed to get any signal. The chilly wind penetrated her coat and chilled her to her bones. She was so exhausted and cold that she could barely walk.

A while later, Genevieve fished her phone out and saw there was a signal.

Excited, she ran ahead. When there were two signal bars, countless missed calls and text messages popped up on her phone.

Genevieve was about to make a call when someone called her.

She answered it hastily. "Genevieve, where are you?" Armand demanded.

Hearing his voice made her feel wonderfully alive. Her voice choked as she answered, "I-I'm at... I don't know where I am."

Tears streamed down her cheeks as her teeth chattered. "I'm freezing. My legs are going numb."

Hearing her sobs, Armand wanted nothing more than to fly to her side right now.

Yet, he could only comfort her over the phone at that moment.

When she finally calmed down, Armand told her to see if there were any buildings or road signs around. He also wanted to know if there was anything ahead of her. Genevieve glanced around and told him everything that was in her sight.

"Genevieve, if you can't replace a shelter, don't just stand there. Move around," Armand instructed her. "Don't take deep breaths or panic. I'll replace you." He gave her his word.

"Does your phone still have battery?" he asked.

"I think there is still around thirty percent left," came Genevieve's answer. She remembered that her battery was at forty-eight percent before she answered his call. She glanced at the screen to check the battery level, but her phone powered off suddenly.

Despite trying a few times, Genevieve failed to switch her phone back on.

She belatedly realized that her phone was icy cold. Perhaps the battery drains quickly in the cold weather.

Pulling her coat tighter, Genevieve paced around and breathed slowly to warm herself up. However, that wouldn't work for long.

Time ticked by. Soon, she was freezing again. Despite wearing fleece gloves, she could feel her hands going numb.

She was worried that the cold would affect her children.

Later, Genevieve got so cold that she started losing consciousness.

When she finally collapsed to the ground, she saw a car appearing ahead of her. A black figure dashed out of the car and ran toward her.

"Genevieve? Genevieve! Don't sleep. We're going to arrive at the hospital soon. Open your eyes and look at me."

Genevieve heard Armand talking to her, but his voice was muffled. She couldn't hear him clearly and felt warmth spreading across her limbs. Failing to open her eyes, she passed out in the comfortable embrace.
