Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 405 - 215: I Want You Forever! (Part 2)

Mrs. Geoffrey remained silent, indicating her tacit approval.

"Your eldest son told me about it."

"Skyler? How would he tell you about these things?"

"I..."

Christine Quinn was about to respond but suddenly realized that Mrs. Geoffrey might not know about her relationship with Skyler Jones all along.

Thinking there would be no further interaction with Skyler in the future, Christine Quinn decided not to stir up more trouble and came up with a reason, "Probably because I’m Becca’s sister, and he thought it would be better for me to talk to her!"

Mrs. Geoffrey’s expression was heavy, and she spoke sadly, "He shouldn’t have said those things..."

Christine Quinn replied indifferently, "Auntie, do you really want to defend your son?"

Mrs. Geoffrey shook her head in sorrow, "You don’t understand..."

Christine Quinn retorted angrily, "I don’t understand... I don’t understand why Howard Geoffrey still wants to be with Becca? Alexander Quentin may just be a blood relative to me, but to Becca, he was the person she respected and cared about most in her life... Howard Geoffrey killed Alexander Quentin. Didn’t he feel guilty when he was with Becca?"

Faced with Christine Quinn’s harsh accusation, Mrs. Geoffrey suddenly became angry, "That’s enough, Christine Quinn. My son doesn’t need your judgment!!"

Startled by Mrs. Geoffrey’s rebuke, Christine Quinn replied softly, "Auntie, naturally, you are protecting Howard, but do you really agree with him being so selfish and staying with Becca?"

Mrs. Geoffrey calmed her anger and tried to maintain her composure, "I won’t interfere with his and Becca’s affairs."

Christine Quinn frowned, "Do you think Becca would still be with Howard now?"

Mrs. Geoffrey responded calmly, "She wouldn’t just give up on her feelings for Howard like that."

Christine Quinn scoffed, "Then you really don’t understand Becca... No matter how much she loves Howard, she could never forget her father’s death and be with the man who killed him!!"

Mrs. Geoffrey suddenly scrutinized Christine Quinn, her voice cold, "Christine Quinn, I’m beginning to suspect that you came here today just to add trouble for Becca!! Why did you tell Becca about Aunt Clare’s matter? Don’t you think Becca and Howard aren’t in enough turmoil? If you really cared for Becca, wouldn’t you persuade her to give Howard another chance, to let them have the chance to be together?"

"Sorry, the men of the Geoffrey family are so good at pretending that I find it hard to believe that a man inherently brutal and cold-blooded could ultimately bring Becca any happiness... I’d rather Becca find a better man in her life than trust someone hypocritical again!"

"Christine Quinn, no wonder I always had a bad impression of you... Because of women like you, innately dark, always perceiving things as dark. You only see Howard’s selfishness in hiding things from Becca, but not the efforts Howard has made to be with her. Do you think Becca would be happy in this life without Howard?"

"Dark?" Christine Quinn laughed sarcastically, "If you knew what I had encountered on the road of relationships, you wouldn’t think I’m dark... I have no hope of pursuing happiness in this life, but Becca is my sister, and I hope she finds pure happiness, not one mixed with dangers and hidden risks that could explode at any moment."

Mrs. Geoffrey, displeased, asked, "What do you want then?"

Christine Quinn replied honestly, "Howard is keeping such a close eye on Becca. What can I do? However, I respect Becca’s decision. If she ultimately chooses Howard, I won’t stop her. After all, everyone’s happiness should be in their own hands. But if she chooses to leave Howard, I’ll spare no effort to help her get away."

At this moment, Mrs. Geoffrey’s voice softened, "I’m afraid you’re overthinking. Becca wouldn’t leave Howard. They already have two children..."

Christine Quinn shook her head, speaking with sorrow, "You might not know, Auntie, Becca just went to the hospital with Howard, intending to deal with the child in her womb..."

In her sleep, Rebecca Quentin’s long eyelashes fluttered, and finally, she slowly opened her eyes.

"Becca, you’re awake!"

A gentle voice came, and Rebecca Quentin’s tear-swollen eyes glanced over, seeing Mrs. Geoffrey approaching with a bowl of hot soup.

Mrs. Geoffrey placed the soup on the bedside table, gently helped Rebecca Quentin sit up, then picked up the soup, kindly saying, "I just made this soup. Have some."

Rebecca Quentin stared blankly at the fragrant soup but didn’t reach out to take it.

"Oh, how careless of me. The soup is so hot, it’s hard for you to drink. Let me cool it down a bit for you." With that, Mrs. Geoffrey considerately used a spoon to cool the soup for Rebecca Quentin.

Looking at Mrs. Geoffrey’s caring demeanor, Rebecca Quentin spoke with difficulty, "I don’t want it."

"Becca, I spent a long time on this soup. It tastes really good. Be good and nourish your body. The child will protest otherwise."

"Auntie... I don’t need to nourish myself anymore."

Upon hearing that, Mrs. Geoffrey’s hand shook, nearly spilling the soup on the bed. Pale-faced, she forced a smile, "Haha, don’t say such foolish things. If the child hears, they might think their mother doesn’t care!"

Rebecca Quentin gazed blankly ahead, choking back tears, "Howard and I can’t go on anymore, and the child can’t stay either."

Mrs. Geoffrey’s eyes reddened; she placed the soup back on the bedside and gently took Rebecca Quentin’s hand, apologetically saying, "Becca, please don’t say such things. It pains me to hear you say that... I must tell you, I always disagreed with you and Howard being together because I feared you’d find out about this one day, and you’d suffer like today. But what you fear most often comes true. Howard still wants to be with you. I know my son has never given you good memories before, but as his mother, I can assure you he’s truly sincere about you. Can you let go of the past and give him another chance?"

Rebecca Quentin slowly lowered her head, pain overflowing, "I can’t accept it..."

"Whatever you want Howard to do to make up for your father’s matter, I can accept it. Just please, don’t just throw away the feelings between you two..."

Rebecca Quentin kept shaking her head, unable to make a sound due to her choked throat.

"Becca, you and Howard already have Andrew and are about to have your second child. Do you really have the heart to give up the child and Andrew?"

Rebecca Quentin suddenly looked up, anxiously stating, "No, Andrew is meant to be with me. I won’t leave him..."
