Chapter 729: Chapter 378: Extra: Acting in Front of the Child _2

Late at night.

The door of a high-end apartment was knocked open.

The person inside wearing a thin silk nightgown got up to open the door and found Skyler Jones standing outside.

"Can I come in?" Skyler Jones leaned against the wall with one hand, his voice low and appealing, his deep eyes showing signs of intoxication.

"It’s so late, what’s the matter?" Jennifer Douglas turned around and walked into the room, her unhappy tone letting him know that she was angry at that moment.

Skyler Jones suddenly grabbed her arm with the swiftness of a jaguar, forcibly turning her whole body and pulling her into his embrace.

"Are you angry?" He gently cupped her chin with one hand, raising it slightly.

"No..." She turned her head away, unwilling to admit it.

Skyler Jones reached out to lightly stroke her face, gazing at her deeply.

"You know you can’t hide from my eyes." He slightly curled his lips into a mischievous smile, his husky and sexy voice capable of melting any iceberg in the world.

He was always this confident, confident to the point where others could only surrender.

"I’m not," she denied again, her voice sounding weak and unconvincing.

"Is it because of me?" He gently traced her delicate face with slightly rough fingers, where faint traces of undried tears remained.

"Let me go!" She suddenly shouted, "I don’t want to continue like this anymore!"

Tears fell like strings of broken pearls, her expression downcast and pained.

"I don’t believe these are your true feelings!" Seemingly indifferent, he chuckled.

"I’m serious, please let me go!"

Jennifer Douglas mustered all her strength, struggling to push him away, but Skyler Jones pulled her into his embrace forcefully, tightly wrapping his arms around her—

"I’m not here to apologize to you..."

"I don’t need you..." Jennifer Douglas was still struggling, but Skyler Jones bent down and kissed her lips.

How could Jennifer Douglas resist the masculine scent of alcohol on Skyler Jones and the unusual passion that intoxication brought him? She had long been captivated by his bold and passionate advance.

Skyler Jones lifted her up and walked towards the bed in large strides...

When he pressed down his weight, Jennifer Douglas’s hands landed on his chest.

Skyler Jones held himself up, looking at her, "What’s wrong?"

Jennifer Douglas gazed at the clock on the wall, her eyes revealing a hint of grievance amidst their charm, "I called you so many times, and you didn’t answer. Do you know how embarrassed I was tonight? The private party I prepared for you, and you didn’t show up..."

Skyler Jones chuckled, "How embarrassed?"

"And you still say..." Jennifer Douglas swung her fist at his firm chest, "I even bought a white dress just for the occasion..."

"Then wear it for me next time."

"I refuse to. If you want to see it, have your wife wear it for you. Anyway, your wife is so beautiful, she’d look good in anything."

"That is indeed true."

"Hey..." Jennifer Douglas, infuriated, wanted to push Skyler Jones away.

But Skyler Jones used his strong arms to hold her tightly, still smiling, "I’ve come to be with you, so tell me, who do I care about?"

Jennifer Douglas turned her face away, "Who knows if you just came from your wife." 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

He chuckled and shook his head.

She looked at him, puzzled.

"Tonight, I’ll stay with you."

Suddenly, Jennifer Douglas’s eyes welled up with warmth, "You... what did you say?" Knowing that in over a month of their relationship, he had never stayed overnight before.

"So, do you still need to ask where I’m coming from?" His gaze was bold and seductive as he glanced at her, "Is it your turn to celebrate my birthday?"

Jennifer Douglas shyly looked at him, that handsome face, those mesmerizing eyes, had already left her helplessly infatuated...

Of course, they would celebrate in ’love’.

Skyler Jones leaned down, beginning to revel in the pleasure on her body, they tangled and twisted like two serpents...

It’s been over a month since arriving in New York, and for the first time, Skyler Jones spent the night out.

Christine Quinn herself could not have imagined that she would also spend a sleepless night until dawn.

In the morning, when she got up and saw the unfolded blanket on the sofa, she sat on the edge of the bed dazed for quite a while.

After washing up and getting dressed, she walked out of her room, only to run into Rebecca Quentin hesitantly standing outside the door.

"Becca, what’s wrong?"

"Sister..." Rebecca Quentin hesitated, holding a newspaper, unsure if she should give it to her.

Christine Quinn noticed the newspaper in Rebecca Quentin’s hand, "Is something up?"

Rebecca Quentin slowly handed the newspaper to Christine Quinn.

Christine Quinn frowned as she took the newspaper from Rebecca Quentin, glancing at it, a conspicuous headline startled her—"Skyler Jones, CEO of the ’Oversky’ Group, Spends a Secret Spring Night with the Heiress of the ’Nonta’ Group."

Upon seeing the newspaper, Christine Quinn’s expression showed no sign of surprise. She looked calmly at Rebecca Quentin and asked, "What’s the matter?"

Rebecca Quentin was shocked by Christine Quinn’s reaction, staring in disbelief.

Christine Quinn smiled casually, "I didn’t expect the news to report so quickly. What happened last night is in the papers this morning."

Rebecca Quentin’s eyes widened in disbelief, "So, brother-in-law didn’t come home last night?"

Christine Quinn mocked with a laugh, "Do you think I have any control over whether he comes home?"

Rebecca Quentin abruptly rushed into Christine Quinn’s room, looking at the big bed.

Indeed, the big bed was empty.

"He really didn’t come home..."

Christine Quinn stood behind Rebecca Quentin and said calmly, "You’re mistaken, we’ve never slept in the same bed... However, the fact that he didn’t come home last night is true."

Rebecca Quentin suddenly turned around to look at Christine Quinn, exclaiming in surprise, "You’re still sleeping separately?"

Christine Quinn sat on the bed’s edge, chuckling lightly, "I thought you already knew."

Rebecca Quentin sat down beside Christine Quinn, "I always thought that after you both came to New York..."

Christine Quinn placed her hand gently on Rebecca Quentin’s shoulders, speaking with calm serenity, "My dear sister, there’s really no need to worry about me and him anymore... it’s impossible for us."

"But these days..."

"These days, it’s a kind of understanding between us... In short, for Marie’s sake, we decided to cease fire."

"Then what about the matter between brother-in-law and Jennifer Douglas..."
