Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 498 - 262: I Actually Care About You a Lot (2)

Christine Quinn excitedly said, "Alright, I’ll call those reporters downstairs and you can hold a press conference right now, explaining how Howard Geoffrey bullied and tangled with you, and also clarify Alice Robinson’s defamation against you."

Rebecca Quentin gently reassured with a smile, "Sis, we both know very well that this matter won’t continue to deteriorate."

Christine Quinn understood the underlying meaning of Rebecca Quentin’s words but disagreed, "Do you believe Howard Geoffrey will definitely resolve it?"

Rebecca Quentin nodded.

Christine Quinn scoffed.

Rebecca Quentin said softly, "I believe he will come forward to resolve this matter."

"My silly sister, do you still think he’s the same Howard Geoffrey from before? Back then, he cared about you and wouldn’t let anyone bully you in the slightest. Now he has a girlfriend. Do you think he would suppress his own girlfriend to protect you?"

Rebecca Quentin still spoke in a calm tone, "Sis, you’ve known Howard Geoffrey longer than I have; you’re clear on what kind of person he is. You can’t judge him negatively just because of my current relationship with him."

Christine Quinn snorted disdainfully, "Sorry, but I’m really not sure about his character... I used to believe that it was only a matter of time before he and you got together because I trusted his character and believed in his promises to you. But I didn’t expect, in just half a year, he would shift his affections under a pretentious excuse and humiliate you like that in the hotel..."

"Sis, he didn’t ’humiliate’ me."

"In my view, what he said to old Mrs. Geoffrey is no different from ’humiliating’ you!!"

Rebecca Quentin slowly lowered her eyes, "I was overthinking."

Christine Quinn gently held Rebecca Quentin’s shoulders, showing affection, "Becca, sis doesn’t mean to bring up this matter to you, she’s just really upset. How could he treat you like this? He said you didn’t cherish the relationship between you and him, but if he hadn’t selfishly protected his mom, would you and he be in this situation now? He shifted his affections in just half a year yet pushed the blame on you. Is he being fair to you? You gave so much for him over the years, and he didn’t appreciate it, easily getting together with another woman. Is this the love he once professed to you?"

"Sis, please stop..."

"Becca..."

"There’s no right or wrong in matters of the heart; it’s best to part amicably."

"I just feel sorry for you..."

"I know, but I’m okay. In fact, I should be grateful for everything that happened in Y City. If I hadn’t gone to Y City, I might regret not having made it to the end with him for the rest of my life, but now I have no regrets."

Christine Quinn sighed and shook her head, "I truly didn’t expect Howard Geoffrey to be like this. But he didn’t appreciate you, that’s his loss... if he ever wants to come back, not a chance!!"

Rebecca Quentin chuckled softly.

Christine Quinn followed suit and laughed, "Alright, for your sake, I won’t bother with him... We’ll just wait for him to resolve this matter!"

Rebecca Quentin requested a week’s leave from Manager Smith, not for anything else, just patiently waiting for the matter to pass.

Christine Quinn happened to visit, making Rebecca Quentin not bored while staying home.

At the moment, Rebecca Quentin was cuddling with Christine Quinn on the sofa watching a TV series together. It’s the most melodramatic Korean love drama, yet very touching.

Christine Quinn felt touched after watching, "The male lead is so deep in love, if only there were more men like this in the world."

Rebecca Quentin, having watched the TV, showed little reaction.

"Unfortunately, the ones we encounter are all scum..."

Rebecca Quentin remained silent, suddenly turning to ask Christine Quinn, "How are you and Mr. Jones?"

Christine Quinn rested her hands on her cheeks, "I’ve never had a good relationship with him, just now..."

"What happened now?"

Christine Quinn sighed mournfully, "After Marie’s surgery went well, to prevent Marie from feeling lost, Skyler Jones has already moved to the villa to live with us... But don’t misunderstand, although he and I sleep in the same room at night, he sleeps on the sofa and I sleep on the bed. We don’t communicate at all."

"In matters of the heart, let nature take its course. I don’t want you to force yourself to be with Mr. Jones."

"My fantasy about love has long been shattered... I’m only acting with Skyler Jones to ensure Marie stays happy in the following year when she still needs observation. Once her illness is completely cured, I’ll explain my situation with her dad to her, letting her choose for herself."
