"Huh?" Rebecca Quentin sat up straight, "But I’m at ’QCS’ right now, I haven’t gotten off work yet!"
"It’s okay, you forgot I have the keys to your house. I’ll cook lunch for you, co back early!"
"Alright, sis, I’m really happy you’re here."
"Mm."
Rebecca Quentin hurried ho right after getting off work at noon.
Sure enough, as she opened the door and entered, she already slled the aroma of food in the house...
"Sis――"
"Becca, you’re back."
Rebecca Quentin, having changed her shoes, excitedly walked to the kitchen and hugged Christine Quinn, "You’re so nice!"
"Set the table, it’s ti to eat."
"Mm."
A few minutes later, the two sat at the dining table.
Looking at all her favorite dishes on the table, Rebecca Quentin contentedly said, "Sis, the happiest thing for now is eating the food you cook."
"I said I’d co here to take care of you, but you didn’t want that..."
Rebecca Quentin imdiately shook her head, "No need, I can definitely take care of myself. You should stay in Y City with Marie!"
Christine Quinn gazed at Rebecca Quentin’s thin face and suddenly choked up, "Becca, are you really doing okay?"
"Sis, look, you’ve co here three tis already this month, and each ti you ask this question. How can I prove I’m fine now?"
"I just thought..."
Rebecca Quentin tily interrupted Christine Quinn, "I’m fine..."
Christine Quinn’s eyes reddened, expressing self-bla, "If I had been by your side back then, but I was tied up with Skyler Jones..."
Yes, when Rebecca Quentin and Howard Geoffrey were having issues, Christine Quinn had already planned to be by Rebecca Quentin’s side. But who could have thought that the issue between Christine Quinn and Skyler Jones would suddenly beco exposed by the dia? A housekeeper called Christine Quinn, telling her that Marilyn Quinn’s life was severely disrupted. Helplessly, Christine Quinn flew back to Y City temporarily. But those reporters were relentless, and Christine Quinn simply couldn’t take Marilyn away from Y City. At that ti, Rebecca Quentin also told Christine Quinn that she and Howard Geoffrey were fine, so Christine Quinn stayed in Y City for the ti being. Who would have thought that a month later, Christine Quinn would receive a call from the hospital...
Only then did Christine Quinn learn that Rebecca Quentin had accidentally miscarried!
This past half year, Christine Quinn had been blaming herself for this incident...
"Enough, sis... let’s eat!" Rebecca Quentin lowered her head, picked up her bowl, and started to eat.
"Becca, these past few months, has Howard... still not contacted you?"
Christine Quinn’s question once again made Rebecca Quentin’s eating pause. She was silent for a few seconds before answering, "Since we’re no longer connected, there’s nothing to talk about..."
"But Andrew..."
"I’ve thought it through. It’s better for Andrew to stay with him than with . Besides... his mother loves Andrew very much. They will definitely take good care of Andrew."
"Becca, if it weren’t for the father’s issue, you and Howard..."
"Things have co to this point, there’s nothing more to say... Even if the child were still here, he and I would have reached the end. Let the ending between Howard and put an end to all the grievances between the Geoffrey and Quentin families!"
Christine Quinn painfully whispered, "Becca..."
"Let’s eat, sis, I’m so hungry..."
Rebecca Quentin lowered her head as she ate, but only she knew that every bite she swallowed was filled with bitterness.
The mories flooded her mind――
At that ti, she was weakly lying in the hospital bed, talking to him on the phone...
She couldn’t control her emotions then, sobbing intensely as she told him she couldn’t save the child...
In that mont, he fell into a deathly silence, and she seed to hear him grip the phone tightly...
Soon after, the call ended, and all that was left in her ear was the beeping sound...
Later when she called him again to talk about Andrew, it was his secretary who answered. Lisa Cecily told her that Andrew wouldn’t be staying with her anymore!
At the sa ti, she knew, he would never want to see her again in this life...
She knew he wouldn’t forgive her, and she couldn’t forgive herself either, but she had no regrets.
As Rebecca Quentin had to go on a business trip, Christine Quinn stayed in T City for one night before leaving.
Dragging her luggage to the airport, since she arrived early, Rebecca Quentin sat down in the airport hall.
Most of the passengers had already passed security and were resting in the departure lounge, leaving her looking a bit solitary in the airport lobby.
Bored, she watched her surroundings to pass the ti, inadvertently seeing a young couple kissing goodbye at the security check.
