Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 541 - 283: She Takes the Initiative to Kiss Him (3 of 2)

Chapter 541: Chapter 283: She Takes the Initiative to Kiss Him (3 of 2)

"Chester Robinson, what a good name, so young and already running such a big company, truly impressive."

Rebecca Quentin kept chatting with Aunt Clare until Aunt Clare urged her to leave the hospital.

Under Aunt Clare’s persistent requests, Rebecca Quentin finally left the hospital, leaving Aunt Clare in the care of a nurse.

As she walked out of the hospital, Rebecca Quentin suddenly realized she didn’t know where she’d be staying tonight.

Thinking of this, Rebecca Quentin suddenly remembered Howard Geoffrey.

She hadn’t thought Howard Geoffrey would accompany her to M City, nor did she expect him to help her.

Actually, lately there were too many things about him that she couldn’t figure out, but if she really tried to think about them, she’d just become stressed, so at this moment she simply decided not to think about anything, knowing time would reveal everything.

Seeing a hotel across the street, Rebecca Quentin was about to walk over when a car suddenly stopped at her feet.

Rebecca Quentin was startled and saw Roye stepping out of the car.

"Miss Quentin."

"Roye!"

Roye said, "Let me drive you back to your hotel!"

Rebecca Quentin smiled politely, "No need, I’m staying right across the street tonight, it’s very close."

Roye looked troubled and said, "To be honest, the CEO asked me to wait here for you, saying if I don’t pick you up for the hotel, I won’t be sleeping tonight either."

"This..."

Amidst Rebecca Quentin’s hesitation, Roye had already opened the car door, "Miss Quentin, please don’t make things difficult for me, come on in!"

After Roye’s repeated urging, Rebecca Quentin finally got into his car.

Starting the engine, Roye lowered his head and quietly sent his boss a text.

Once the text was sent, the ordinarily chatty Roye immediately began talking, "Miss Quentin, have you ever thought about getting back together with the CEO since separating?"

Rebecca Quentin remained silent without answering.

Roye continued, "Let me tell you, the CEO is currently with Miss Robinson, but that doesn’t mean he’ll end up with her. Relationships are unpredictable, who knows, maybe he’ll be back with you in a few days..."

Rebecca Quentin calmly responded, "Roye, you’re talking nonsense. Your CEO isn’t someone who treats relationships as a joke."

Roye laughed awkwardly, fearing he’d been caught and refraining from saying more.

Howard Geoffrey has always enjoyed quality living, so his hotel is the most upscale in M City.

Roye brought Rebecca Quentin to Howard Geoffrey’s room, opened the door with a key, ushered her inside, and then quickly disappeared.

Standing in the room, Rebecca Quentin glanced around helplessly and realized Howard Geoffrey was not there.

Rebecca Quentin was about to leave when she heard the sound of running water from the bathroom.

Clearly, he was taking a shower.

Rebecca Quentin suddenly felt strange standing here, feeling slightly uncomfortable, and as she glanced around, she accidentally noticed a laptop on the table not far away.

Curiously, she walked over and saw that he had been on a video call before.

She looked carefully and found that the call was not with business contacts but with the directors of several hospitals.

These hospitals are very famous in New York, specializing in internal medicine.

Thinking of Aunt Clare’s upcoming kidney transplant surgery also being under internal medicine, Rebecca Quentin roughly guessed why he was contacting these directors.

Suddenly, a warm feeling surged through her heart, bringing a peaceful smile to her face.

Ding—

The phone on the desk suddenly beeped unexpectedly.

Rebecca Quentin, whose attention was initially on the computer, instinctively glanced at his phone.

The phone was displaying an unread message.

It was sent by Roye with the message—Boss, there’s a surprise, remember to credit me.

Rebecca Quentin didn’t fully understand the message, furrowing her brow. What surprise?

Just as Rebecca Quentin was puzzled, the sound of water in the bathroom suddenly stopped.

Rebecca Quentin instinctively looked toward the bathroom and saw Howard Geoffrey step out, his lower body wrapped in a towel, still dripping from the shower.

Seeing Rebecca Quentin, Howard Geoffrey’s brows raised, his handsome face showing delight.

Seeing his reaction and thinking of the message Roye had sent, Rebecca Quentin instantly realized what had happened.

Could it be that Roye had taken the initiative to bring her here? But that seemed unlikely—Roye wouldn’t have waited outside the hospital if he had acted on his own.

Actually, Rebecca Quentin didn’t know that in the past six months, Roye had followed her around as closely as a shadow, so it wasn’t strange for him to appear in front of her at the right time.

However, Howard Geoffrey indeed hadn’t thought Roye would bring Rebecca Quentin here. Since Rebecca Quentin had already said she would stay at the hospital to accompany Aunt Clare tonight, and after he had already imposed on her once last night, being accused of not respecting her wishes, he decided to grant her request to stay at the hospital, only to be surprised tonight.

Rebecca Quentin stood frozen, momentarily unsure of how to explain her presence, but when she saw Howard Geoffrey approaching her, her only thought was to leave.

Unexpectedly, her attempt to flee was immediately stopped by someone from behind.

Someone’s arms embraced her, his strong body pressed closely against hers, and his magnetic voice whispered across her ear, "Don’t go..."

Realizing Howard Geoffrey might misunderstand her, Rebecca Quentin quickly struggled and explained, "It’s not what you think, Roye tricked me into coming here."

Howard Geoffrey, buried in Rebecca Quentin’s neck, lightly kissed her and asked indistinctly, "How did he trick you into coming?"

"He said... he said if I didn’t come, you wouldn’t let him sleep."

Howard Geoffrey chuckled softly upon hearing this.

Rebecca Quentin felt utterly embarrassed and elbowed Howard Geoffrey slightly, "You’re just teasing me."

Howard Geoffrey gently pecked Rebecca Quentin’s cheek, "I’m not teasing you, I’m just complimenting myself for having such a good subordinate."

Rebecca Quentin was even more embarrassed by Howard Geoffrey’s smile, "You said you weren’t teasing me..."

Howard Geoffrey turned Rebecca Quentin to face him, "You’re really so against seeing me?"

Rebecca Quentin stayed silent.

Howard Geoffrey’s gaze burned into Rebecca Quentin, then gently lifted her chin, examining her closely for a long time.

Rebecca Quentin’s face flushed under Howard Geoffrey’s intense gaze, the fresh scent of his post-shower mixed with his appealing body fragrance, leaving her somewhat flustered.

He tilted his head, his handsome face coming closer...

Almost as his lips were about to brush hers, Rebecca Quentin turned her head aside, breaking the mood awkwardly, "I want to shower."
