Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 841 - 434: Extra Story: President Ji Still in His Prime 1_2
After saying that, Christine Quinn hung up the phone without waiting for Rebecca Quentin to respond.
Christine Quinn returned to Skyler Jones with a smile.
She said, "Becca is still like a child, every time she talks to me we end up chatting for a long time."
"When is she due?"
"Hmm, the due date seems to be the 5th of next month..."
"When she has the baby, it’ll be about time Marie is on summer break, and our family can go to New York to visit her."
"Okay."
Skyler Jones reached out. "Come here..."
Christine smiled lightly and held Skyler Jones’s hand.
Skyler Jones rotated his long arm to make Christine sit on his lap.
Christine exclaimed instinctively and wanted to leave his lap, but he firmly wrapped his arm around her waist.
Not quite used to sitting on his lap, Christine’s face turned red, "What are you doing?"
Skyler stole a kiss on her blushing cheek, hugged her tightly, and said contentedly, "It’s been a long time since I’ve held you like this..."
Yes, it’s been over a decade, and once these actions felt so natural for them.
"Hey, we’re not kids anymore, it doesn’t seem quite right to do these things."
"Then what kind of things are right for us? Adult things?"
"Skyler Jones, it’s broad daylight, no getting fresh!!"
Skyler laughed mischievously, whispered in her ear, "Okay, we’ll do it tonight then."
"Hey..."
"Alright, alright, let’s stop teasing, let’s talk about something serious."
Christine sat comfortably on Skyler Jones’s lap, swinging her legs, "Speak."
"Will you leave me again?"
Christine turned her face to look at Skyler Jones’s affectionate expression, "Are you afraid I’ll leave you now?"
Skyler nodded seriously.
Christine smiled and asked back, "Do you think I’ll leave you?"
"I don’t think you will."
Christine reached out and pinched Skyler Jones’s handsome face playfully, "Of course I won’t, if I leave, who will take care of you, you disabled person?"
Skyler seemed to enjoy Christine’s teasing, and asked casually, "What if I’m not disabled then?"
"It’d be great if you’re not disabled..."
"I mean, if I’m not disabled, would you choose to come back to me?"
"That’s..."
"Hmm?"
Christine widened her eyes, looking at Skyler Jones, deliberately acting as if she was about to answer but eventually said briskly, "Sorry, I don’t answer hypothetical questions, unless you stand up right now, then I can answer you."
"Naughty." Skyler chuckled, worried inside for her non-answer at the moment.
Prior to this he tried every possible way to bring her back to his side, now that he finally succeeded, he felt uneasy...
If one day she finds out he used "paralysis" to deceive her into coming back, would she be angry and leave again? He once thought everything would be easily resolved once she returns to him, but now he realizes this seems like a big trouble.
It’s impossible for lies to last all my life, hence he must address this lie early, otherwise the longer it lasts, the more troublesome it becomes.
"By the way, what did Jennifer Douglas say to you just now?" Christine suddenly asked curiously.
Skyler answered frankly, "Nothing, just some blessing words."
Recalling Charles Douglas’s hesitant demeanor in front of Skyler, Christine probed, "Really?"
Skyler said nervously, "If you don’t believe me, I can pull up the surveillance from the villa right now."
"Hey, I’m not doubting you, I’m just asking casually..."
Skyler hugged Christine tightly, turning his head to savor her neck’s fragrance, "I promise she won’t appear again."
Christine said with a hint of jealousy, "She seems quite concerned about you... When she saw you said you wanted to sell ’Oversky’, she flew from New York to see you immediately, I think she’s quite attached to you, why don’t you consider it..."
At that moment, Skyler bit heavily on Christine’s neck.
"Ah!"
Skyler spoke huskily, "Don’t bring up old matters again."
"You bit me really hard!" Christine shrank her neck, annoyed, "I’m not trying to confront you with anything, I’m serious..."
Skyler leaned in for another bite.
This time Christine cried out even louder, "Hey, what are you doing..."
"Don’t ever try to pawn me off to someone else."
Listening to his domineering warning, Christine felt sweet in her heart, "Alright, I was just joking with you, even if I wanted to hand you over to Jennifer Douglas, she might not want you, don’t forget, I didn’t tell her about your paralysis yet... She’s young and beautiful, previously she was infatuated with you because you were handsome and wealthy, now with your lower body disabled and older, why would she still want you?"
"What?" Skyler squinted slyly.
Christine turned to look at him, "Hmm?"
Skyler narrowed his eyes into a mischievous slit, "Complaining I’m old again?"
Christine laughed mischievously, "Well, you are old!"
"Men in their forties are just reaching their prime."
"Yes, yes, still charming, it’s just..."
"Just what?"
Christine provocatively glanced at Skyler’s lower half, "Certain functions might have already declined."
Skyler suddenly pinched Christine’s waist, making her sit squarely on his knees, pressed firmly against her, squinted his eyes and looked at her wickedly, "Do you feel it?"
She instantly blushed with embarrassment, and before she could apologize to a certain someone, that certain someone had already used the subsequent heat to make her beg for mercy...
Noon.
During lunch, Marie kept looking at Christine.
"What’s wrong, daughter?"
Feeling uncomfortable being stared at by her daughter, Christine couldn’t help but ask.
Marie blinked her eyes and said, "Why is your face so red?"
"Ah?"
Christine’s face turned even redder when Marie asked like that, "Is it?"
"Yes, your face is redder than an apple."
Christine reached out and touched her own face, "Uh, maybe it’s because the weather is hot today..."
"But mommy..."
"Hmm?"
