Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 704 - 366: Extra: Howard Geoffrey Takes the Lead

Chapter 704: Chapter 366: Extra: Howard Geoffrey Takes the Lead

She never hoped to be with him; after so many years, she was already used to being alone...

But why did he still want to hurt her?

Even if there’s no ending, at least there were beautiful memories once, right?

"Strong words are left, but the eyes are too weak to support, wanting to find someone..."

The melodious phone ringtone suddenly came through.

Christine Quinn took out her phone, glanced at the number on the screen, hastily wiped away the tears at the corner of her eyes, and took several deep breaths.

Just as the phone was about to stop ringing, she finally picked it up.

"Hello..."

"Sis."

"Becca."

"Sis, why does your voice sound like that?"

Christine Quinn stood up, her tone slightly panicked, "Uh, maybe I caught a cold last night... You know, the day-to-night temperature difference here on HN Island is quite large."

"Sis, I miss you... Why don’t you come to New York to see me after your vacation with Mr. Jones? Anyway, Marie will soon have her summer break..."

"Alright, I’ll go to New York to accompany you if I’m free."

"Sis, no, your voice doesn’t sound like a cold..."

Christine Quinn deliberately picked up a tissue, pinched her nose to make her nasal sound heavier, "Oh, stop dwelling on my cold; I have something important to tell you..."

"What’s up?"

"Do you know that Chester Robinson might have done surgery for you."

"What?"

"Have Howard take you to the hospital for a check-up... Chester did surgery for you."

"Andrew, what were you doing at home all day today?" Howard Geoffrey threw his car keys to the servant and then picked up the little one who had been waiting for him.

"Today, Mommy and I were tidying up the garden." Andrew’s arms wrapped around Howard’s neck, and his mouth curled upwards.

"Where’s Mommy?"

"Mommy’s in the room."

"In the room... Is she feeling unwell?"

"No, Mommy said she doesn’t want to see Daddy."

"What?"

Howard Geoffrey carried Andrew into the villa, but couldn’t find Rebecca Quentin’s trace, and immediately became vigilant.

"Honey..."

Howard knocked gently on the door outside.

Through the door, it seemed possible to feel the little woman’s discontent solidifying in the room.

"Honey, honey..."

Howard called impatiently.

The door suddenly opened, and Rebecca Quentin’s gorgeous face was furrowed in indignation.

Howard squeezed into the door, and instinctively pulled Rebecca Quentin into his arms as well, "What’s wrong?"

Rebecca Quentin struggled in Howard’s arms.

Howard had already closed the door with his foot, hugging Rebecca Quentin tightly from behind, his low and gentle voice brushing at her ear, "What’s wrong, darling?"

"I went to the company today to find you, and saw Catherine Swift standing very close to you again."

"She is my PR assistant, and naturally, we have business matters to discuss."

"But she was leaning close to you. You two seemed very intimate."

"Leaning close was unconscious during discussion, and as for intimacy, there’s simply nothing to talk about."

"No, I can tell she looks at you differently."

"If you really can’t stand her, then I’ll fire her tomorrow."

"Wouldn’t that make the whole company think I’m an unreasonable ’CEO’s wife’? After all, Catherine Swift is acknowledged by everyone as exceptionally capable, having already successfully secured three major projects for ’Skytop’ and having been praised for her work rapport with you."

Howard laughed softly, holding Rebecca Quentin more securely and letting her rest in his gentle embrace, "Besides you, I’m not interested in any other woman, you know that."

"That’s what you say, but who knows what you think in private... If you and Catherine Swift didn’t engage in actions causing misunderstandings, how could I suspect you?" Rebecca Quentin looked at Howard with aggrieved eyes, her appearance evoking compassion.

"I’ve told you, last time was really her accidently falling and I helped her up... Beyond that, I haven’t even touched her, if you don’t believe, you can ask Lisa Cecily."

Rebecca Quentin pouted, "Lisa Cecily is yours, whatever you tell her, that’s what she’ll say."

Howard feigned surprise, "Oh, isn’t she now your spy in the company ’monitoring’ me?"

Rebecca Quentin was amused by Howard’s expression, "How annoying..."

Howard laughed along too, his thumb gently sliding over her soft cheeks, trying to wipe away all unhappiness on her face, "I worked so hard to get you to marry me, I barely have enough time to adore you..."

"Really?"

"You still don’t believe me?" Howard retorted.

He’s handsome and wealthy, with so many women coveting him; how could she be at ease?
