Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 852 - 440: Extra Story: Confronting Ren Qingle
Skyler Jones didn’t resist, letting her vent on him.
Until she was exhausted, collapsing to the ground.
He nervously supported her, trying to pick her up.
But facing his touch, she shouted with all her strength, "Don’t touch me!!"
Skyler Jones still picked her up.
No matter how much she struggled, he carried her to the bed, letting her kick, punch, and curse at him.
After hitting him one last time, she gradually stopped and finally broke into tears.
Skyler Jones held her tightly, his hoarse voice full of guilt and remorse, "Don’t cry, my dear..."
"Bastard..."
Even while crying, she didn’t forget to curse him.
"As long as you stop crying, I’ll do anything you want." His tears made her heart tighten, and he pleaded.
She continued sobbing but no longer looked at him, her tear-soaked eyes staring blankly.
Skyler Jones covered her body, his slightly rough hand cupping her wet face, his voice hoarse, "I had no choice... if I didn’t do this, I knew clearly with your personality you wouldn’t come back to me."
Christine Quinn had no reaction, immersed in her pain.
"Christine, look at me..."
She seemed unable to hear anything, unmoved.
He cupped her face, forcing her to meet his gaze, speaking softly, "I’m sorry, I just couldn’t bear to watch you slip away from me."
Her tear-filled eyes finally looked at him, staring for a few seconds.
He gently wiped away the remaining tear stains on her face with his thumb, admitting his guilt, "I know doing this is despicable and selfish, but what else could I do to bring you back?"
She was stubborn; once she made up her mind, it wouldn’t change. This was the only way he could think of. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
Her heart ached and she said, "So you thought you could deceive me?"
"I’m sorry."
"Do you think a simple ’sorry’ can erase your selfishness?" she rasped, "Do you know how much it hurt me when I found out you were paralyzed? I even felt that your paralysis was indirectly caused by me, and you used my guilt, making me worry like a fool. How could you be so cruel?"
"I’m sorry..."
She sneered, "Stop saying that, don’t you find it disgusting?"
A trace of pain flashed in his eyes, "I know nothing I say can change things now... what can I do to make you forgive me?"
"I can’t possibly forgive you."
"Christine..."
"Don’t call me that!!" Christine Quinn angrily pushed him away.
He was caught off guard and she pushed him away. With a loud "bang," he fell heavily onto the floor.
The loud noise startled her, and she quickly sat up, only to see him moan in pain before losing consciousness.
She jumped off the bed in panic, hurriedly cradling his head, "Skyler..."
He didn’t respond, letting her shake his body.
She was so scared her face turned white, "Skyler, Skyler..."
He still didn’t react.
She fearfully reached out to check his breath, but suddenly, her small hand was grabbed by him,
Before she could react, he flipped over and pinned her beneath him.
She asked in a daze, "You’re okay?"
"Of course I’m not okay... my head still hurts."
"You deserve it!!!"
Seeing he was okay, her temporarily forgotten anger resurfaced.
He smiled ingratiatingly, "If I just went like that, what would happen to you alone?"
"Can I not live without you?"
"You can, but with me, your life will be even better."
Christine Quinn turned her face away in defiance, "I think it would be a nightmare instead."
"It’s not a nightmare, it’s a sweet dream."
"Go away, I don’t want to see you anymore." She pushed him away again.
He caught her disobedient hands, keeping a pleasing smile, "Don’t be angry, your heart isn’t good, you shouldn’t get worked up."
If not angry, she could at least use her feet, right?
She kicked up, hitting his lower body directly.
"Ah!"
He painfully rolled off her, gritting his teeth, "Damn it, are you trying to murder your husband?"
Christine Quinn glared at him without goodwill, "Didn’t you say I could do whatever I wanted?"
"..." He really was inviting trouble for himself.
Christine Quinn clapped her hands and got up from the floor without looking at him, walking straight out of the room.
