Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 757 - 392: Extra Story: He Kept His Promise and Returned_2
She could not let her daughter suffer any stimuli during the observation period, so she must endure these three months!
Lowering her head, Christine Quinn lovingly kissed her daughter again.
After a long time, she gently placed her daughter on the bed, pulled up the covers, put on a nightgown, and got out of bed.
She wasn’t sleepy at all, and sat by the window with her clothes on.
Y City wasn’t as bustling as New York; in the depth of night, the city seemed empty and desolate.
She suddenly missed Becca very much...
Her silly sister, if she knew about her current health condition, would surely be upset, but fortunately, Howard Geoffrey was by her side.
Actually, being alive until today was truly a miracle for her.
She knew she had a heart condition from a very young age, but she didn’t know it could be fatal because even if she felt discomfort as a child, she could overcome it and otherwise was just like any other person, so she didn’t take her heart disease seriously.
Later when she worked, she joined "Oversky," met him, and when she had thoughts of spending her life with another person, she realized that her health might be an obstacle...
She had thought about telling him because she knew if he knew, he would do everything possible to cure her, but who could have thought, she hadn’t even had the chance to tell him about her health when M approached her...
She knew how suspicious his nature was, also aware of the experiences of his childhood, she clearly knew her "betrayal" might bring their love to a halt, but she had no choice...
He said her mother’s death was indirectly caused by her, because she did have a choice, if she chose to trust him, she should have believed he had the ability to save her mother, but in the end, she chose to make a deal with the devil, which led to being deceived by the devil, ultimately failing to save her mother’s life.
She knew very well, her choice back then was indeed a kind of harm to him, but if she had to choose again, she thought she still couldn’t make the most correct choice, because he would never be able to understand the miserable cries of her only relative suffering on the other end of the phone...
Their love ended just like that.
After her mother’s funeral, she disappeared for a long time, and eventually sought him out.
From that day on, the way he looked at her changed.
There was no more past affection; he utterly despised her.
At that time, her physical condition also began deteriorating, she went to see a doctor alone, the doctor said without a heart transplant, her body wouldn’t last more than a few years.
Her mother was dead, and he no longer loved her, by then she had no courage to live, so when he took the initiative to find her, asking her to get close to Howard Geoffrey, she didn’t refuse.
She only hoped to do her best to compensate him in the remaining years.
At that time, how could she have known about Howard Geoffrey’s intelligence and cunning, she only aimed to relay Howard Geoffrey’s daily movements to Skyler Jones...
During that period, although she and Skyler Jones rarely met, whenever they did, he still insisted she accompany him to the hotel.
Finally, one day, she discovered she was pregnant...
He didn’t know, actually, she had been pregnant twice when she was with him, but both times she lost the baby.
After finding out about the pregnancy, she was at a loss, hesitating whether to tell him, but at that time, she was abducted...
In the end, Howard Geoffrey saved her in a rundown house, at the time, all signs pointed to her being humiliated.
For the first time in her life, she lost her strength, had no courage to live, until the doctor told her that the baby in her womb was okay.
At the time, she didn’t know, Howard Geoffrey didn’t "despise" her and continued to take care of her, because Howard Geoffrey suspected her identity was related to his brother, so he always regarded her as family...
Later, she gave birth to Marie, and everyone thought the baby was hers and Howard Geoffrey’s, some ignorant people even speculated that Marie might have been the result of "rape"... In any case, she always appreciated Howard Geoffrey’s care.
Howard Geoffrey’s care gradually made her feel guilty, she wanted many times to explain to Howard Geoffrey her true purpose of approaching him, but for the sake of that person, she always hesitated.
She and Howard Geoffrey maintained a vague relationship like this, while she and Howard Geoffrey never had truly intimate contact, their mutual affection was not because Howard Geoffrey was truly attracted to her, his acting skills were even better than hers...
She still remembered once, when she acted as usual, she thought he would, as always, consider her health and refuse, but unexpectedly, Howard Geoffrey actually...
That time she was really frightened, almost confessed to Howard Geoffrey, fortunately, at the last moment Howard Geoffrey received an important call and left.
She couldn’t figure this out, and later had to ask Howard Geoffrey...
It was then she learned that Skyler Jones was just outside their room that day.
Howard Geoffrey did that just to see if Skyler Jones cared about her.
Facts proved, Skyler Jones didn’t care, because at that moment she had called and told him about it, she thought he would ask her not to stay with Howard Geoffrey, but he didn’t.
Looking back now, all these years, she truly was so foolish.
For someone who had always just been using her, her devotion seemed really ridiculous...
She still remembered asking him—if six years ago Howard Geoffrey hadn’t kept her alive... would you have watched as I died?"
He answered—that’s right... every time I worked for M all these years, I thought about how I could tear you to shreds... you tell me, how would I choose?
Every word he said, clearly existed in her mind.
He wished for her death...
Now, he finally could have his wish fulfilled, she indeed was about to die, henceforth he could live very, very well...
In the blink of an eye, it was Marie’s birthday.
The day before her birthday, Marie had already planned the next day’s itinerary for the three of them, Marie didn’t even reveal it to her, saying it would be a surprise for her and Skyler Jones.
Her daughter had always been mischievous, so even she couldn’t guess what surprise Marie was planning, her greatest fear was being shocked.
Skyler Jones promised to come back for Marie’s birthday, but until the day before, Skyler Jones was still in New York.
