Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 734 - 381: Extra: He Publicly Claims She Is Already Pregnant 2
Rebecca Quentin sat on the edge of the bed and expressed her concern, "Are you sure you’re really okay?"
Christine Quinn nodded and took a sip of water.
Rebecca Quentin sighed softly, "I’m starting to wonder if my efforts to pair you up with Mr. Jones were all wrong?"
Christine Quinn placed the cup on the bedside table, reached out to hold Rebecca Quentin’s slightly cold hand, and said sincerely, "Becca, stop worrying about me... You and Howard Geoffrey have come so far, I’d rather see you enjoy your life without worries."
"But I’m worried about you..."
Christine Quinn smiled and shook her head, "Have you forgotten? I’ve made it through like this all these years."
Rebecca Quentin’s voice choked, "When I saw you getting out of Howard Geoffrey’s car looking lifeless, I was really scared..."
"Silly, scared of what?"
Rebecca Quentin reached out to embrace Christine Quinn, her tone growing hoarser, "I’m afraid of losing you, sis..."
Christine Quinn chuckled softly, "Such a silly girl... how could you lose me?"
"I don’t know... I just, just have this uneasy feeling, every time I see you suffer, this feeling grows stronger."
Christine Quinn wanted to hug Rebecca Quentin, "Silly girl... am I not fine?"
Rebecca Quentin widened her eyes, looking at the faint smile on Christine Quinn’s face, with a slight hint of moisture in her eyes, "My heart aches..."
Christine Quinn gently wiped away the trace of tears at the corner of Rebecca Quentin’s eyes, "If you dare cry in front of me, Howard Geoffrey is going to scold me again."
Rebecca Quentin was amused by Christine Quinn’s words, sniffed, and nodded, "Alright then... tell me, what are you planning to do next?"
"Do what?"
"Mr. Jones keeps hurting you recklessly, are you just going to let him?"
Christine Quinn calmly looked at her sister, "Becca, remember, every situation has two sides. You’re outraged on my behalf because you’re thinking from my perspective, but you can’t ignore that I indeed did something to hurt Skyler Jones, which led to him despising me now."
"But he knows it was all M..."
"You must understand, for someone who’s never felt secure, trusting someone is extremely difficult, and I happened to betray that trust."
"So all this time you’ve been trying to make it up to him..."
Christine Quinn nodded, "For so many years... whatever he wanted me to do, I would do. I only hope that my efforts can ease his pain somewhat."
"But clearly, he’ll never appreciate what you’ve done for him."
"But I owe him nothing anymore, especially now that I know he..." At this point, Christine Quinn’s voice paused.
"Know what?" Rebecca Quentin asked.
She knew that from beginning to end, he never cared about her. His hurt towards her was only because she left a blemish of failure in his life, where he’d never lost before. What troubled him was his pride, not his heart.
Of course, she never wished for his heart to bear pain...
In fact, if he never cared for her in the first place, her heart needn’t shoulder the intense guilt and remorse for hurting his feelings in the past...
Therefore, what she did for him was already enough.
"It’s nothing... in any case, stop worrying about me, I’ve managed all these years, what’s another half a year?"
Rebecca Quentin frowned with worry, "But if Marie finds out..."
Christine Quinn immediately interrupted Rebecca Quentin, "She won’t find out, at least not until her observation period is over, Skyler Jones and I will continue to maintain this current understanding."
"I shouldn’t have just stood by and watched you marry Mr. Jones." Rebecca Quentin admitted with regret. Only today did she realize that perhaps her decision to match her sister with Mr. Jones was a mistake, because—not every happy ending is the best ending. If her sister’s ultimate happiness means enduring the present misery, she’d rather choose someone ordinary for her sister to live a peaceful life. Even if she didn’t love that person, at least her heart would remain whole.
Christine Quinn slowly released Rebecca Quentin, shaking her head, "Becca, actually, whether I get married or not doesn’t matter to me at all..."
"Marriage is the biggest event in a woman’s life."
"But for a life that’s already..."
"Already what?"
