Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 563 - 294: He Came to Pick Her Up (Part 1 of 2)
Chester laughed loudly, "Mr. Geoffrey, I think we should keep it simple... let’s make a deal."
"Sure, as long as it’s interesting!"
"You’ll definitely find it interesting... Ask your secretary to accept some pictures I’m sending you now, and get back to me after you’ve looked at them."
After Lisa Cecily accepted the pictures sent by Chester, she saw that the computer screen showed several obscene nude photos of women, and the woman in the photos was none other than Alice Robinson.
Lisa gasped and quickly turned off the computer screen, angrily saying to her boss, "President, this Alice is really shameless, good thing you’re not really with her..."
"It seems Chester wants to use these nude photos to blackmail the president. If the president doesn’t back down on the M City’s matters, Chester will make these photos public," Jason Wood said.
After being angry, Lisa laughed, "Chester’s using such a cheap trick, he has no idea the president is setting up an empty city stratagem..."
Yes, back then the situation was so urgent, Howard Geoffrey couldn’t find evidence to accuse M City to divert Chester’s attention, so he had to instruct people in T City to fabricate false evidence and submit it to the judiciary...
The judiciary’s job was actually to verify the new evidence, but Howard bought off people there, intentionally releasing news that M City would be re-examined, but the truth was, even if Chester did nothing, M City would be fine; the judiciary would eventually confirm that the evidence received didn’t match the facts.
Jason nodded agreeably with a smile, "Boss, it seems Chester is no longer suspicious about you not being in New York... It was a close call, but everything went smoothly as planned!"
Lisa breathed a great sigh of relief, "President, you can relax now. Following your plan, you’ll probably receive good news in a day or two..."
Jason timidly asked, "President, there’re only two or three days left, should I still go to T City?"
Howard half-squinted his dark eyes and gave Jason a "friendly" glance, "What do you think?"
"I’ll pack my bags right away!"
In the next second, Jason shot out of the president’s office like an arrow.
Two more days passed.
As Rebecca Quentin walked into "QCS" early in the morning, she noticed a bouquet of flowers on her desk.
The new receptionist at the company mysteriously approached Rebecca and said, "Secretary Quentin, these flowers were delivered by the florist for you, I heard a gentleman called in to order them... Hehe, Secretary Quentin, I’ve never met our legendary president, but from him sending you this bouquet of ’forget-me-not’, I can tell our president is really quite romantic!"
Yes, "forget-me-not" is another name for the starflower, which Rebecca once wanted to plant a field of in T City. Later, Howard planted a patch in the villa where they once lived together.
The receptionist’s words attracted the attention of many female colleagues around, their eyes were filled with envy and jealousy towards Rebecca.
Rebecca sat down in the chair, holding the bouquet.
The receptionist, seeing the sweet smile on Rebecca’s face, silently walked away.
Nicolette Holmes approached from behind without a sound, "Feeling sweet deep down, aren’t you?"
The sudden voice from behind startled Rebecca, "Ah!"
"Sorry, I was just overwhelmed by such beautiful flowers... Usually couples send roses or something, who would’ve thought our president understood romance so well, sending you such meaningful flowers, it’s really enviable!"
Rebecca looked at the brilliantly blooming blue and purple flowers, feeling a sweet warmth in her heart.
He wasn’t by her side, so she couldn’t help but let her thoughts wander, always afraid that everything that happened in M City was just a dream...
Every night she had the urge to call him, but she remembered what he said... She had to fulfill her promise to him and also believe what he said about it being "soon."
So, in the days after returning from M City, even though she was waiting for him with certainty, her heart was filled with uneasiness.
Receiving this bouquet now, even though it wasn’t signed, her heart calmed down... He was the only person in the world who knew she liked starflowers.
Just as Rebecca was immersed in thoughts of her future with Howard, her phone suddenly rang.
Rebecca took out her phone, hesitated for a few seconds, and pressed the answer button. "Hello..."
"Becca, it’s me."
"Doctor Robinson." Ever since that night, there seemed to be a veil between Rebecca and Chester, and Rebecca always intentionally or unintentionally avoided him.
"I was going to ask you to take leave to go to the hospital with me, only to find out that you had already gone to work so early."
These days Rebecca came to work half an hour earlier than usual, and left work later than usual at night, to avoid Chester picking her up.
Rebecca awkwardly replied, "Uh, yes, I came early, I’ve taken too many days off recently, and many things are piling up."
"I’m coming over to pick you up now."
"Huh?"
"I mentioned to you about that doctor I’ve been thinking of, Mr. Abel. I’ve found him, he arrived in T City last night. I was going to tell you, but you seemed to have gone to bed early last night... I’m coming to ’QCS’ to pick you up now, so Mr. Abel can examine you, and if all goes well, you can have surgery this afternoon!"
"Miss Quentin, I’ve reviewed your past medical records, and just did an examination for you... your condition is indeed a bit worrisome, but among the patients I’ve treated, you are not the worst..."
When Doctor Abel said this to Rebecca, she couldn’t help but smile with joy, her face slightly pale from the discomfort of the examination, excitedly asking, "Doctor, does that mean I have a chance of being cured, right?"
Doctor Abel nodded with a smile, "Although I can’t guarantee the surgery will be 100% successful, I certainly don’t want to add a failure in my medical career when I’m so close to retirement."
The implication from Abel was that he would do his utmost.
Hearing the doctor say this, Rebecca was so happy she was nearly in tears, repeatedly saying, "Thank you, doctor, thank you..."
Doctor Abel said, "Follow the nurse to prepare. If everything is in order, we’ll be able to proceed with the surgery in half an hour."
"Okay."
As Rebecca followed the nurse out of the examination room, her eyes were already moist.
Chester, who had been waiting outside the examination room, walked over to her, seeing the shimmer in her eyes, he nervously asked, "What’s wrong? Was the examination uncomfortable?"
