Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 819 - 423: Extra Story: He Loves Her, What Should He Do? (Part 2)
"I forbid it!!"
Christine Quinn chuckled, "President Jones, you’ve forgotten, you have no right to interfere."
"As long as we are husband and wife, I have that right."
"It’s truly laughable—you think it’s perfectly justified to cheat during our marriage, and yet I merely mention dating someone while we’re processing our divorce. What’s the big deal?" She spoke softly, sounding as if addressing their current topic, yet her words cut like a knife deeply into Skyler Jones’s heart.
He was left speechless, simply staring at her in a daze.
She chuckled lightly, "Lost for words?" He now felt the pain she once felt.
Even now, he wanted to clarify things with her. "What happened between Jennifer Douglas and me is not what you think."
"You don’t need to explain to me. I don’t care anymore."
"You may pretend you don’t care about me... but let me be clear, I will not give up on you. As long as I, Skyler Jones, am here, you, Christine Quinn, will only be my woman!!" With that, Skyler turned coldly and left.
Christine Quinn laughed coldly.
Hearing her laughter, Skyler Jones stopped.
"Skyler Jones, since you’ve made it clear to me, let me make it clear to you... Who do you think you are, God? The one who can rule over everything?"
Christine’s voice was choked with emotion as she spoke.
Skyler turned around, his expression hard and cold.
Christine laughed bitterly, "Yes, when I cared about you, you were my sky, I listened to whatever you said and was willing to do anything sweetly for you, but you forgot that now, to me, you’re nothing!!"
"Christine!!!!"
Christine’s gaze showed no fear.
Skyler had already reached Christine, gripping her shoulders tightly, "Stop saying such self-deceiving things. I won’t believe it!"
Christine pushed him away forcefully, "You’re the one deceiving yourself. I no longer love you, Skyler. Don’t you understand?"
Skyler stepped back, his face turning pale and shadowed by her words, his eyes holding a hint of hurt, "Fine, fine... you say you don’t love me anymore, is that it? Fine... look at me, tell me to my face you don’t love me, that in this whole life you wish to have nothing more to do with me, and I will believe you."
"I can say it, but why should I say it to you?"
"If you dare say it while looking at me, then I will from now on never bother you again, leaving you in peace!!"
"Alright..."
Christine’s frail body moved in front of Skyler.
Skyler gazed deeply at her.
Christine’s face turned slightly pale, her lips trembling, but she firmly met Skyler’s eyes, locking her gaze with his.
Skyler gripped her shoulders, commanding coldly, "Say it."
An inexplicable pain emanated from her heart, but within her heart sat even more pain caused by him...
All those satirical remarks, all the malicious harm, the absence of respect, and his flirtations with another woman...
These were already etched on her heart like scars, causing a pain that took her breath away.
Once, she had stubbornly chased his shadow unwilling to give up, until that shadow grew distant, faint, like a needle embedding itself in her heart.
She dared not provoke him anymore...
She was tired...
She was scared...
Though she wasn’t perfect, she deserved someone better who would cherish her.
Don’t hesitate, let him go...
She and Jonathon would surely be happy.
"I no longer love you, Skyler... in this whole life, I don’t wish to have any more entanglements with you. From now on, you go your way and I go mine. If you feel any pity for the years I’ve spent without a happy day, I beg you for a chance to take a breath, to get to know the people around me anew, and start my new life."
His heart ached to the extreme, his world suddenly darkened.
His hands that gripped her shoulders gradually lost strength, dropping from her slender shoulders to his sides weakly.
He backed away two steps, his eyes filled with a pain as he looked at her.
Don’t hesitate, don’t look back...
Christine Quinn, he isn’t right for you, and you aren’t right for him...
Your past "betrayal" is a barrier that will never disappear between you... even if you force yourselves to be together, you will never return to the loving relationship you had thirteen years ago.
That he was able to be with another woman during your marriage shows his love is still a choice...
Even though he now feels lost and in pain, it’s because he has lost a woman who has loved him for over a decade, like a habit, suddenly gone, leaving him unable to adapt for a while. But with time, he will gradually forget you, because he could never love you the way you loved him... ultimately proving you meant nothing to him.
Thirteen years have been enough...
Let her give them both a chance for liberation, he can look for a woman who can give him a pure love like they had thirteen years ago, and she can try loving someone who will never hurt her...
Skyler Jones’s voice roared in the room, "I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it..."
"Whether you believe it or not, you’ve heard every word I said. I hope you can do what you promised me."
"Christine Quinn, you’re indeed a master of lying, but sadly, you can’t fool me, you can’t!!" Skyler’s angry roar echoed throughout the room.
He was like a wounded lion, in pain, bewildered, and lost.
Finally, he smashed everything in her room and stormed out.
The car sped down the road at 200 km/h...
If it weren’t for the fact that it was the dead of night and the sudden torrent of rain, with almost no pedestrians on the road, this speed could be fatal.
Suddenly, he hit the brakes, the car skidding to a halt at the roadside.
The wipers swept away the rain incessantly sliding down the windshield...
Skyler pounded the steering wheel forcefully, then, in the next moment, he opened the door and got out of the car.
He let the rain fall on him, soaking him to the skin.
Oversky, you said we would get married at Florence Cathedral in Italy someday, wouldn’t we?
