Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 817 - 422: Extra: He Loves Her, What Should He Do? (2-2)
Christine Quinn slowly stood up, looking at Marie, she tried hard to swallow the lump in her throat. "Please take good care of her, I will come again tomorrow."
"Okay."
Bending over to tuck Marie in, only then did Christine Quinn turn to leave.
Skyler Jones followed Christine Quinn out of the children’s room.
"I’ll see you out." Outside the door, Skyler Jones said to Christine Quinn.
"No need... Thank you for speaking well of me in front of Marie today, so that she can understand me." She spoke to him politely, as if they had really become friends.
Skyler Jones didn’t insist, he only said, "Alright then, take care of yourself at the hotel."
Christine Quinn nodded, said nothing more, and turned to leave.
As she turned to leave, Christine Quinn could feel Skyler Jones’ gaze always fixed on her.
Walking in the corridor on the second floor, she felt his gaze still following her.
She pretended not to feel it, but at this moment, she heard another set of footsteps besides her own.
Before she had time to react, she was tightly embraced from behind.
Immediately, a familiar masculine scent surrounded her.
His strong arms wrapped around her from behind, their cheeks pressed closely together, and his magnetic, hoarse voice mingled with plea sounded in her ear, "Can you not leave?"
His embrace, his voice, made Christine Quinn flustered...
He was always proud, she had never thought he would plead with her in such a humble tone.
She was stunned for a long while, and after coming to her senses, she wanted to break free from him.
However, his arms were tightly wrapped around her, and it was difficult for her to even move, let alone break free.
"Give me one more chance... I know you still care about me, we can start over." His trembling voice beside her ear grew increasingly hoarse.
Christine Quinn painfully closed her eyes, some moisture gathering in her eyes.
"I didn’t cherish you before and let you suffer so much. I was wrong, and I’m willing to atone for everything I did before... I just beg you to forgive me, to give me another chance to have you back."
Christine Quinn still kept her eyes closed, not speaking.
"I love you, Christine Quinn... I love you... I love you... I love you..." He said the most moving words in her ear again and again.
Christine Quinn slowly opened her eyes, a thick mist of tears already covering them.
Afraid she would struggle, he held her tightly and continued speaking on his own, "I know we can start over... You won’t give up on me... Christine..."
"Oversky."
She finally opened her tightly pressed lips.
He leaned closer to her face, "Hmm?" 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
"Let go of me first."
"I won’t let go... If I do, you’ll leave." He spoke with the stubbornness of a child.
At this moment, a stern male voice came from the hallway, "Mr. Jones, please let go of my girlfriend!"
Immediately followed by a servant’s voice, "Sorry, Mr. Jones, this gentleman kept saying he’s the young lady’s friend, and we couldn’t stop him from coming up..."
Skyler Jones looked deeply at Christine Quinn, seemingly undisturbed by the sudden voices.
Seeing Jonathon Gibson, Christine Quinn momentarily forgot to struggle.
Jonathon had already rushed forward and pulled Christine Quinn from Skyler Jones’ embrace, then glared fiercely at Skyler Jones, "Don’t force me to take action, even if it’s your territory, I’m not afraid of you!!"
Skyler Jones said nothing, only stared intently at Christine Quinn without blinking.
He was still waiting for Christine Quinn’s answer.
With Jonathon holding Christine Quinn, they were already at least three meters away from Skyler Jones, her eyes swimming with tears, gaze slightly vacant.
"Christine, let’s go." Jonathon wrapped an arm around Christine Quinn’s shoulder, turning to leave.
Christine Quinn followed Jonathon numbly.
The next second, unexpectedly, a heavy punch landed hard on Jonathon’s nose.
"Ah!!"
A completely unprepared Christine Quinn was startled, only seeing Jonathon stagger back several steps, blood all over his nose.
Christine Quinn sharply raised her eyes, finally seeing it was Skyler Jones who had hit Jonathon.
Skyler Jones had seized Jonathon’s collar, losing his usual calm and self-control, he coldly spat out, "You better remember, we are not divorced yet, Christine Quinn is still my wife!!"
Provoked, Jonathon visibly seething with rage, forgot the pain in his nose, and threw a punch at Skyler Jones.
The next moment, all of the Jones’ Mansion’s bodyguards rushed over, restraining Jonathon.
Already bearing several marks on his face, Jonathon struggled with gritted teeth, "Skyler Jones, is this all you got? If you have guts, face me one-on-one..."
Skyler Jones, also bruised, his shirt sleeves stained with spots of blood, coldly commanded his subordinates, "Get out of my way... I want to see how capable he is!!!"
Upon hearing Skyler Jones’ order, the bodyguards immediately backed off.
However, just as Jonathon was about to throw another punch, Christine Quinn suddenly shouted, "Enough!!"
Christine Quinn’s voice instantly held everyone present.
She first glared at Skyler Jones, "Why did you hit him?"
Skyler Jones, his handsome face with wounds, remained cold and silent.
Christine Quinn then supported the visibly more injured Jonathon, "Let’s go!"
Jonathon still fiercely stared at Skyler Jones, only retracting his resentful gaze as Christine Quinn guided him to leave.
The servant standing on the side, not daring to speak, immediately rushed to Skyler Jones’ side, nervously saying, "Ah... Mr. Jones, your hand is bleeding..."
Skyler Jones watched Christine Quinn support Jonathon’s retreating figure, suddenly turned and walked away from them.
Hearing Skyler Jones kick the door open, Christine Quinn’s heart trembled slightly.
Because Jonathon was injured, Christine Quinn drove on the return journey.
Now, Jonathon sat in the back seat, hand pressed against his aching chest, but his gaze remained fixed on Christine Quinn driving.
Acting as if nothing happened, Christine Quinn calmly said to Jonathon, "Your chest and nose are injured, I’ll take you to the hospital."
"I’m fine, no need for the hospital."
"Then let’s go to my hotel to treat your nose wound, there should be a first aid kit there."
