At that ti, Christine Quinn was deeply in love with Skyler Jones...
One day, Skyler Jones told her about a magic stock he could introduce to her. If she invested five billion, it would double in a few years...
Christine Quinn actually didn’t want to rush into investing the money at that ti. After all, five billion was enough for her to spend all her life, and she didn’t need such high material demands. Besides, she hoped to rely on Skyler Jones in the future. But to please Skyler Jones, and to prove that she had no doubts about his business acun, she gave all her money to Skyler Jones, asking him to invest it in that stock for her... Who would have thought that in just a few months, the stock would run into problems, causing her to lose all her capital.
At that ti, Christine Quinn didn’t bla Skyler Jones for this. She only thought that people make mistakes, horses slip, and she felt she could rely on Skyler Jones for the rest of her life even without that money. So she never complained to Skyler Jones.
It was only later that she found out that Skyler Jones intended not to help her make money but to deceive her into investing, wanting her to lose everything...
Skyler Jones was rely avenging the Geoffrey family against the Quentin family!
"Sigh..." Rebecca Quentin sighed softly, "We were just too naive."
Christine Quinn wiped away the disobedient tears escaping her eyes and said, "So, Becca, how can I forgive him? To put it nicely, maybe he wants to fulfill so responsibilities as a father to Marie. But frankly, he is pitying Marie, and no matter how much I suffer, I don’t care for his pity!!"
Touched by Christine Quinn’s words, Rebecca Quentin couldn’t help but bla herself, "I’m sorry, sister. I’ve always thought of the things between you two too simplistically, I..."
Regaining her composure, Christine Quinn interrupted Rebecca Quentin, saying, "It’s not your fault. I know you’re advising for my own good, but I am utterly disheartened by Skyler Jones..."
In the elegant and quiet café in the small town.
Rebecca Quentin and Skyler Jones sat face to face.
In just a few months, Rebecca Quentin felt a layer of unfamiliarity with Skyler Jones.
"Long ti no see," Rebecca Quentin forced a faint smile and greeted Skyler Jones.
Skyler Jones leaned against the sofa, holding a lit cigarette, examining Rebecca Quentin opposite him, with deep, dark eyes, "When did you start talking to so stiffly?"
Rebecca Quentin did not answer.
Skyler Jones showed a cunning gaze, "Christine Quinn must have told you a lot."
"Yes." Rebecca Quentin looked up at Skyler Jones, recalling the care Skyler Jones once showed her. She tried hard to suppress her anger for Christine Quinn and said calmly, "The Mr. Jones I knew was gentle, elegant, calm, and approachable. But I never thought that what I knew was just a facade you created. The real you is cruel, ruthless, despicable, and shaless!!"
Skyler Jones did not show the slightest anger, flicked the ash from his cigarette, and chuckled, "Never thought you would describe with those adjectives soday."
There was a layer of disappointnt in Rebecca Quentin’s eyes, "Mr. Jones, besides Aunt Clare, you’re the only person I can still trust in this world... I have always been grateful to have you as a friend, grateful for all the help you gave when I was isolated and helpless. Why did such a gentle and considerate you do so many conscience-destroying things to my sister? I thought you were different from Howard Geoffrey, whose world is only about revenge, while you were calm and rational, never seeing issues in a biased way. But I was wrong; you and he are the sa kind of people, driven by hatred, with no room for kindness in your eyes..."
After a long while, Skyler Jones finally replied, "I admit, I do have considerable hatred towards the Quentin family."
Rebecca Quentin shook her head, "I’m truly disappointed in you..."
"Disappointed that I have such hatred?" Skyler Jones chuckled coldly, "That’s sothing you can’t understand."
"Why continue the vendettas of the previous generation into this one? It only makes us live in pain."
"Why?" Skyler Jones’s eyes burst with hatred, his tone obviously filled with anger, "Vivian Lindsey destroyed my family, resulting in its fragntation. My mother abandoned , my father was entangled with that woman and neglected the company’s affairs. Eventually, my father died at that woman’s husband’s hands, and the company went bankrupt... Without money to support my education, I was forced to give up and wander from place to place, handing out flyers, working in companies, doing nial jobs, suffering every kind of hardship. Perhaps the drive to fight desperately ca from my hatred for my mother’s abandonnt, but I equally loathe the Quentin family!!"
