Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 532 - 279: The Biggest Lie
Actually, since returning to T City these past two days, thoughts of him have consumed nearly all her time outside of work, even in her dreams, the scenes she dreams about are snippets of when they were together in the past.
She was really agitated, wanting to forget, yet unable to do so; and he, of all things, kept appearing before her, disturbing her calm heart.
What exactly does he want to do?
Why, when they were in New York, did he become so angry after seeing her play ball with Chester Robinson, and then come to find her?
Does he care? 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
Does he really care?
He’s with Alice Robinson now, and their affectionate reports are almost daily featured in the newspapers; the whole world knows that their happy occasion is near.
Thinking of this, Rebecca Quentin turned her head indignantly towards Howard Geoffrey.
Howard Geoffrey looked ahead, yet was aware of her every move, asking, "What do you want to say?"
Rebecca Quentin glared at him coldly, "You’re with me now, aren’t you afraid Alice Robinson will find out?"
Howard Geoffrey said flatly, "We’re not talking about her." Mentioning her ruins the mood.
Howard Geoffrey’s attitude made Rebecca Quentin feel he was avoiding the issue, so she added, "Howard Geoffrey, even though I don’t have a good impression of Alice Robinson, I believe that loving someone means giving her wholehearted care. You are with her, yet you persistently entangle with me. This invisibly harms Alice Robinson and makes me very unhappy."
Rebecca Quentin’s words plunged the car into silence.
She continued waiting for Howard Geoffrey to respond, but he remained silent, offering no reply.
Suddenly, the car came to a stop.
Before getting out of the car, Howard Geoffrey finally turned his face towards Rebecca Quentin, quietly saying, "I agree with you." Loving someone means giving her wholehearted care.
Rebecca Quentin’s face turned a little pale, "Then let me out of the car."
Howard Geoffrey got out of the car at this moment, opening the door on Rebecca Quentin’s side.
Rebecca Quentin grabbed her bag, got out of the car, and without looking at the surroundings, started to walk toward the roadside.
Unexpectedly, Howard Geoffrey suddenly embraced Rebecca Quentin.
As soon as she was enveloped by his aura, a sense of foreboding emerged...
Sure enough, he lightly pecked her cheek, "Who said you could leave."
Rebecca Quentin abruptly looked up, glaring at him, her cheeks flushed from his previous kiss.
Howard Geoffrey took Rebecca Quentin’s bag from her hand, then, embracing her, walked toward the hotel behind them.
Forced to turn around, Rebecca Quentin finally noticed the neon-lit XXX Hotel behind her.
The hotel’s enchanting lights shone on Rebecca Quentin’s face, revealing her instantly rigid beautiful visage.
The hotel’s attendant had already approached, taking the car keys Howard Geoffrey tossed at him.
Rebecca Quentin finally came to her senses, making a strong effort to break free from the current intimate hold on her waist.
Howard Geoffrey calmly held her restless petite body, walking straight toward the hotel.
Rebecca Quentin, directly embraced and taken into the hotel suite by Howard Geoffrey, constantly resisted and struggled, yet ultimately to no avail.
It wasn’t until they entered the room that Rebecca Quentin freed herself from Howard Geoffrey, or more accurately, it was when he released her that she managed to escape.
Rebecca Quentin immediately dashed to the door, pulling on the door handle with force.
However, the door seemed firmly locked, unable to move at all.
Rebecca Quentin persistently kicked the door.
At this moment, Howard Geoffrey’s unhurried voice came, "I had the attendant lock the door from the outside; it’s impossible to open it from inside."
Rebecca Quentin angrily turned around, glaring at Howard Geoffrey.
Howard Geoffrey tossed the watch he had just taken off onto the table beside him, then approached Rebecca Quentin.
Instinctively, Rebecca Quentin stepped back until her body pressed against the door.
Faced with her wariness and tension, Howard Geoffrey appeared unaffected, softly saying, "I just got off the plane, I’m a bit tired, I’ll shower first."
"Hey..."
Rebecca Quentin hadn’t the chance to say anything before Howard Geoffrey already started unbuttoning his shirt heading toward the bathroom.
Seeing Howard Geoffrey about to step into the bathroom, Rebecca Quentin hurriedly chased after him.
Unexpectedly, Howard Geoffrey suddenly stopped and turned around, causing her to run directly into his embrace; the key point is his shirt was already unbuttoned, so now her face was pressed against his firm broad bare chest.
Howard Geoffrey encircled Rebecca Quentin with his arms, a gleam of unusual brilliance in his deep dark eyes, carrying a hint of allure, "Want to shower together?"
As he spoke, the slightly warm breath dropped precisely on her ear, making her feel a crisp, tingling sensation.
Rebecca Quentin, ignoring the pain in her nose from bumping into him, tried with all her strength to push him away.
At that moment, Howard Geoffrey lifted Rebecca Quentin horizontally into his arms, walking toward the room’s sole big bed.
