Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 581 - 303: Never Separated Again (2/2)

Howard Geoffrey curled his lips into a mischievous smile and said, "Already know how to please my mom?"

Becca glared at Howard Geoffrey with annoyance, "You’re busy with work every day. Do you know your mother isn’t in good health?"

"Hmm?"

"Your mother’s back has always been bad... She knows you and Mr. Jones are both very busy and doesn’t want to delay your time or make you worry, so she never told you."

Howard Geoffrey’s eyes darkened, and he spoke with guilt, "It’s my negligence."

Becca hooked her arm around Howard Geoffrey’s and comforted him, "It’s not your fault. Your mom knows you’re filial and intentionally kept it from you..."

"When did you find out?"

"It was..." Becca paused for a second, then changed her tune, "It was when I called your mom, and she mentioned it unintentionally."

She didn’t tell Howard Geoffrey the truth because she didn’t want to bring up "Y City" to him.

She discovered it when she stayed over with Mrs. Geoffrey for two nights while Marie was having surgery in Y City.

The reason she didn’t mention "Y City" to Howard Geoffrey was that the happiness she had now was too hard-won, and she didn’t want to recall everything that happened in Y City.

Howard Geoffrey lovingly kissed Becca, "You’re really considerate."

Becca pushed away Howard Geoffrey’s lowered head and shyly complained, "Don’t do this all the time... There are so many people around." The servants were all watching!

Howard Geoffrey nonchalantly said, "I don’t mind," and then kissed from Becca’s face to her lips.

Becca turned her head shyly, "Hey, I’m serious, let’s go shopping now!"

Howard Geoffrey reluctantly left Becca’s lips and affectionately tapped her nose, "Alright, whatever you say goes."

Howard Geoffrey personally drove Becca to the city center.

Becca was very pleased and rewarded Howard Geoffrey with a kiss as she got in the car, only to be caught and passionately kissed inside the car.

Of course, in broad daylight, it’s impossible to ignite a flame in the car.

After another hasty ending, Becca blushingly adjusted her clothes, once again feeling guilty towards someone in her heart.

Speaking of which, she had been staying with him in the villa for more than twenty days...

In these more than twenty days, she and he mostly slept in separate rooms.

Speaking of which, he had only resolved it once; of course, it doesn’t rule out him taking care of it himself...

No matter what, he was wronged; she knew he was holding back with great difficulty.

When the car stopped at the entrance of the biggest mall in T City, Becca froze in the car.

Howard Geoffrey got out and opened the car door for Becca, carefully lifting her out to avoid her wound, which hadn’t fully healed, from hurting as she got out of the car.

After Becca steadied herself, she looked at the bustling crowd and nervously held Howard Geoffrey’s hand, saying, "There are so many people here, should we go to a smaller mall instead?"

Howard Geoffrey embraced Becca directly, smiling as he said, "What are you worried about?"

Becca worriedly said, "There are so many people here, they might recognize you, and if there are reporters..."

She could already imagine how the news of her being with him would shock the world if it got out, probably leaving everyone stunned.

She didn’t mind how the media would write about her; she was worried about him...

Howard Geoffrey held Becca as they walked towards the mall, a smile playing on his lips, "Do you think I would mind appearing in public with you now?"

Becca turned to look at Howard Geoffrey’s handsome profile in a daze, uncertainly asking, "Do you really not mind?"

Howard Geoffrey stopped walking and tousled Becca’s hair gently, "Silly, why would I mind? We’re going to get married and announce our relationship to the whole world..."

Becca bit her lip lightly, unbelievingly asking, "We’re getting married?"

"Of course."

Becca gazed deeply at Howard Geoffrey, her chest welling with emotions, hesitantly saying, "I’m not dreaming right now, am I?"

She asked this question once more.

Howard Geoffrey compassionately embraced Becca, "Have I said too many hurtful things before, causing you to be so uncertain about our relationship now?"

Becca raised her head in Howard Geoffrey’s arms, bitterly saying, "I don’t care about the past; I only care about you..." 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

Howard Geoffrey gently cupped Becca’s sorrowful face, filled with boundless affection, "Having you, I’m so lucky."

Becca vulnerably said, "Do you know? I’m not as strong as people think. Without you, I lived very poorly, very poorly... I couldn’t stop myself from thinking about you, even knowing that you and I were impossible..."

Howard Geoffrey wiped the tears from the corner of her eye apologetically, hoarsely saying, "I’m sorry..."

Becca choked out, "I don’t want you to say ’I’m sorry.’ I just want you to promise me, you’ll never leave me alone in this lifetime."

Howard Geoffrey nodded, his throat tight, unable to utter a word.

Becca’s face brightened with joy, "Then let’s get married when we get back to New York, okay?"

Howard Geoffrey took a deep breath, "Of course, if you want, we can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau right now."

Becca playfully said, "No, I want to register in New York, I want your mom to witness it for us."

"Alright..."

Howard Geoffrey kissed Becca’s forehead, with all the warmth of his life on his lips.

Becca wrapped her arms around Howard Geoffrey’s neck, tiptoed, and kissed his lips proactively.

They didn’t realize that many passersby had already gathered around them.

Initially drawn to their striking appearance and bold public display of affection in front of the mall, the crowd soon recognized their familiar faces...

Then someone in the crowd started shouting, "It’s Howard Geoffrey, it’s Howard Geoffrey..."

After a long kiss, many people had already gathered around them.

Numerous flashes and magnesium lamps were flickering, clearly indicating that many media had arrived...

Becca could feel the growing number of people around and the increasing discussions about them. Despite blurring out everyone else, she was still a bit shy, nestling close to him, asking, "What should we do now?" With so many people, they probably couldn’t go shopping...

At this moment, Howard Geoffrey took Becca’s hand and walked straight towards the mall.

"Huh?"

Still in a daze, Becca followed Howard Geoffrey’s strides.
