Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 566 - 296: Finally Together

Chester Robinson seemed to make a promise to Rebecca Quentin, earnestly saying, "Rest assured, I’ll be on duty at the hospital for a while, I won’t be returning to the villa at night, unless you’re bothered by seeing me there during the day."

"No, Doctor Robinson, that’s not what I meant..."

Chester Robinson gazed at Rebecca Quentin’s uneasy expression with a hint of a smile. "So, you’re agreeing?"

"I..." Rebecca Quentin suddenly found herself unable to refuse.

Chester Robinson said slowly, "I just hope you can have a good recovery environment."

Rebecca Quentin hesitated inside for a while and finally nodded. From one perspective, having someone to care for her would indeed speed up her recovery.

"Alright, I’ll go handle your discharge procedures... I’ll take you back to the villa later; it will be more convenient than staying here."

"Thank you."

"Silly." Chester Robinson ruffled Rebecca Quentin’s hair and got up to leave the ward.

Watching Chester Robinson’s tall figure leaving, Rebecca Quentin was filled with guilt and self-blame.

He had been tirelessly helping her all along, and she felt she owed him more and more. Since that night when he confessed his feelings to her, she was even more unable to accept his help, but... she feared that rejecting him might hurt him.

In the midst of extreme inner conflict, Rebecca Quentin reached for her phone from the bag on the bedside cabinet.

Staring blankly at the phone, she sighed softly.

She really wanted to call Howard Geoffrey...

If he came, she would be able to explain clearly to Chester Robinson, and he wouldn’t waste his time on her. But she didn’t know when he would come to pick her up.

Heaven knows how much she wanted to share this good news with him, to see the joyful expression on his face when he learned about it...

Setting down the phone, Rebecca Quentin turned her head towards the window.

The hospital environment was lovely, with lush trees visible from the window.

Suddenly, Rebecca Quentin heard the soft sound of a door being pushed open.

Assuming it was a nurse, Rebecca Quentin continued looking at the view outside the window, asking, "Did Doctor Robinson finish the discharge procedures?"

The "nurse" didn’t respond.

Most nurses were indifferent to her due to misunderstandings about her relationship with Chester Robinson, which she’d gotten used to, so she didn’t bother to look back at the nurse. But after a few seconds, she suddenly turned her head.

Because, a moment ago, a familiar masculine scent subtly wafted in her breath.

When her gaze intersected with the one’s dark bottomless eyes, Rebecca Quentin’s eyes that couldn’t believe gradually became dazed.

The next instant, she was pulled into a warm, solid embrace.

As the familiar scent, familiar physique, and familiar dominance, together with the real existence of the tall figure in her eyes at this moment, reminded her that she wasn’t dreaming, Rebecca Quentin suddenly lifted her eyes from the man’s embrace, looking at his handsome face as tears misted her eyes, her voice tinged with longing, "Howard Geoffrey..."

Howard Geoffrey held her, gazing deeply into her tear-filled eyes, his voice slightly raspy with repressed emotion, "Darling, I’ve come to take you home..."

"Howard Geoffrey!!"

As Howard Geoffrey’s voice clearly reached her ears, Rebecca Quentin finally could no longer contain her surprise and joy, excitedly trying to get up from the hospital bed.

"Careful."

Afraid that Rebecca Quentin’s movement might pull the wound on her abdomen, Howard Geoffrey promptly lifted her.

Only when she was airborne did Rebecca Quentin realize her body had just undergone surgery, the wound on her abdomen tugging painfully due to her movement, causing her to cry out.

Howard Geoffrey asked anxiously, "Did the wound tear?" Speaking as he cautiously placed Rebecca Quentin back on the bed.

The pain made Rebecca Quentin frown. She gently leaned against the headboard, took several deep breaths, suppressing the pain.

Howard Geoffrey sat at the edge of the bed, holding Rebecca Quentin’s slightly cold hand, solemnly calling out, "Jason Wood!"

Jason Wood, who had been waiting outside the ward, rushed in, "Boss."

"Fetch a doctor here, Quentin might have pulled the wound... uh, Doctor Henley."

"Yes."

Jason Wood dashed out of the ward.

The pain gradually subsiding, Rebecca Quentin waved her hand at Howard Geoffrey, "I’m fine, probably didn’t tear the wound..."

Howard Geoffrey furrowed his handsome brows, his tone carrying an irrefutable admonition and order, "Be more careful next time, okay?"
