Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 636 - 332: Interrupted at a Critical Moment

Lisa Cecily nodded frequently, "You wouldn’t know, I’ve worked for the CEO for so many years, but whenever I make a mistake or overlook something at work, he still scolds me like a dog."

Rebecca Quentin smiled, but spoke with a compassionate tone, "Secretary Cecily, you’ve really been wronged, I will make sure he gives you a raise."

Lisa Cecily laughed awkwardly, "Even though he scolds me, the treatment the CEO gives me is actually quite good..." 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

Sitting in the spacious CEO office, Rebecca Quentin sipped the coffee Lisa made and leisurely picked up a newspaper to flip through.

It was quite coincidental that the news in the newspaper was about her and Howard Geoffrey’s wedding.

Rebecca Quentin hadn’t expected that there was really no trace of negative news.

Actually, in the past few days, she had been somewhat afraid to look at the news, because with such a grand wedding, it was hard to imagine the Geoffrey family could completely block it. At this moment, seeing the newspaper, her always tense heart finally relaxed.

The newspaper reported on the news that she and Howard Geoffrey had already held a wedding as scheduled on a small island, saying Howard Geoffrey hadn’t invited any media but just wanted to enjoy a private world with her, and "after the wedding," some media interviewed Howard Geoffrey, and he had already admitted to the world that he had married her.

No wonder Howard Geoffrey insisted that she must have bodyguards follow her when she goes out; now it seems, he wants to guard not only against bad people but also against paparazzi.

Closing the newspaper, Rebecca Quentin took a sip of coffee, her mind inevitably drifting back to the scenes from the wedding day.

At this moment, her heart still felt a pang of pain, yet the expression on her face still showed a faint smile.

Yes, how could she not be angry, how could she not blame him?

Just because she knows, that being angry, blaming... these have no meaning at all to her.

In his world, the most important things are his abilities, his career, his successes and failures; his emotions are actually just an accessory he needs in his life. He would abandon the wedding to execute his plan, which is sufficient to prove this point.

And she had no need to be angry or complain, because the man she fell in love with is such a man, unless she doesn’t love him, doesn’t want to be with him, then, her only choice is to accept him like this.

Despite this, she is still satisfied; at least she is the woman he cares about most in this world.

Thinking of this, Rebecca Quentin breathed a big sigh of relief; she felt that in this life she is, after all, lucky.

Putting down her coffee, Rebecca Quentin boredly approached Howard Geoffrey’s enormous bookshelf.

She glanced at those books, all related to business, which seemed very profound.

Rebecca Quentin casually picked a relatively old one out, wanting to see what kind of things he usually flips through more.

As soon as she opened it, out fell a bookmark.

Rebecca Quentin picked up the bookmark and found it was actually a piece of paper.

Seeing this familiar piece of paper and the handwriting deeply imprinted in her mind, Rebecca Quentin was stunned on the spot.

It is said that crystal balls have a kind of magic that can let people foresee the future. Darling, tell me, is the future you see in the crystal ball the same as what I see?

Her throat suddenly felt choked, and Rebecca Quentin forgot to breathe; her heart was hit with a heavy tremor.

How could this note end up here with him?

If she remembered correctly, this note should have been attached to the box containing the crystal ball, and back when she gave up on their relationship, she had abandoned the crystal ball at the XX Hotel...

She admitted, after sex she regretted a lot, but at that time she was already on the plane back home and couldn’t contact the hotel. By the time she returned to her country and called the hotel to inquire, the staff told her it was already lost...

She couldn’t blame the hotel staff because she personally said she didn’t want it... so, during that period she was deeply saddened over this matter.

She never thought, this note ended up with Howard Geoffrey...

Does this mean, that crystal ball is actually also with him?

With uncontainable excitement in her heart, Rebecca Quentin put down the book and rushed to Howard Geoffrey’s desk, pulling open all the drawers in front of it.

However, what dispirited Rebecca Quentin was, the drawers contained none of her expected crystal ball.

Though somewhat disappointed not to find the crystal ball, Rebecca Quentin was still very pleasantly surprised, because she never thought that their crystal ball was still around.
