Chapter 558: Chapter 292: Such a Bad Little Devil Already

"But I..." Rebecca Quentin paused.

No, she couldn’t tell Chester Robinson about her current relationship with Howard Geoffrey, and besides, she wasn’t rejecting Chester because she was now with Howard.

Rebecca Quentin sighed, "I hope you can understand what I just said."

"Alright, let’s end tonight’s topic here... I don’t want us to feel unpleasant today. From now on, you can continue to treat me as a friend, don’t mind what I said to you tonight." Chester Robinson shrugged easily, releasing Rebecca Quentin’s shoulders, which were stiff with tension.

Rebecca Quentin looked at Chester Robinson with apology, "I’m sorry."

Chester Robinson chuckled, "No need for such words... Since today is to celebrate for me, would you mind having a drink with me?"

Seeing Chester Robinson’s relieved expression, Rebecca Quentin smiled slightly, her tense body relaxing somewhat, and asked in a friendly manner, "Just a sip?"

"Of course."

A servant appeared out of nowhere, holding two glasses of red wine.

Chester Robinson picked them up, handing one to Rebecca Quentin.

Rebecca Quentin proactively raised her glass to Chester Robinson, "I haven’t congratulated you tonight... Having you as a friend, I am proud of you." She deliberately emphasized the word "friend."

Chester Robinson laughed, clinking glasses with Rebecca Quentin.

Rebecca Quentin took a small sip from her wine glass.

Chester Robinson didn’t drink, his face held a faint smile, watching Rebecca Quentin.

After finishing her wine, Rebecca Quentin handed the glass to a waiter, saying, "It’s late, I have to go home."

Chester Robinson also placed his wine glass aside and nodded, "I’ll take you back."

The car stopped downstairs at Rebecca Quentin’s apartment.

Rebecca Quentin, vigilant, said to Chester Robinson, "Thank you for inviting me tonight and taking me home."

Chester Robinson curled his lips into a smile, "When did you learn to be so polite with me? Don’t forget, I also live here."

Rebecca Quentin was taken aback. Right, she almost forgot!

As Chester Robinson spoke, he had already gotten out of the car and opened the door for Rebecca Quentin.

Saying "Thank you" again, Rebecca Quentin got out, holding her bag.

Chester Robinson suddenly said, "Were you not frightened tonight, were you?"

Back at her place, Rebecca Quentin finally relaxed her constantly tense nerves and smiled at Chester Robinson, "I’ll pretend nothing happened tonight."

Chester Robinson just gave a faint smile, without saying much more.

Rebecca Quentin said, "I’ll be heading back first."

"I’ll walk you."

"Uh, no need, it’s just a few steps."

Knowing Rebecca Quentin’s current sense of distance, Chester Robinson didn’t insist, nodding, "There’s an issue at the hospital tonight, I have to be on call."

Rebecca Quentin, in a friendly tone, expressed concern, "Make sure you take care of yourself."

"Mhm."

After speaking, Rebecca Quentin nodded slightly to Chester Robinson and then stepped away.

Chester Robinson leaned against the car, watching the beautiful silhouette of Rebecca Quentin gradually fade away.

Keith Antony appeared beside Chester Robinson at some point, lamenting, "Boss, this was such a perfect opportunity tonight, and you didn’t make a move. That’s not like you at all!"

Chester Robinson continued watching that silhouette afar, his lips curled into a faint smile, "With her, I can’t rush things."

"But Miss Quentin looked so charming and adorable after drinking a bit tonight. Boss, you’re not moved at all...?"

Chester Robinson cast a cold glance over, "Don’t fantasize about her image in your mind, got it?"

Keith Antony quickly raised his hands in surrender, saying innocently, "I swear, I wasn’t thinking of anything!"

Coming out of the bathroom, Chester Robinson was about to change clothes when he heard a clamor outside the door.

The next moment, the door was opened, and Alice Robinson, who was initially stopped by the servants, burst in.

Seeing the scene before him, Chester Robinson raised an eyebrow.

Seeing Chester Robinson’s slightly displeased look, the servant nervously explained, "Sorry, Mr. Robinson, I already told Miss Robinson you have something going on tonight..."

Chester Robinson waved his hand, signaling the servant to step back, his calm gaze falling on Alice Robinson.

Alice Robinson, in a huff, walked up to Chester Robinson, complaining, "I called you all night, why didn’t you answer? And, are your servants now stopping me from seeing you?"

Chester Robinson directly pulled off the only towel on his body, in front of Alice Robinson, he put on pants and swapped shirts, while buttoning up, he said, "Say what you need to, I still have to go to the hospital."

Alice Robinson angrily moved closer to Chester Robinson, "Why have you suddenly become so cold towards me?"
