Isabella nodded in agreent, "I think so too, but the situation with Mr. Geoffrey and Becca is quite special. They’ve already missed so many chances. If neither of them takes the initiative, they might just keep missing each other..."
Christine Quinn asked in confusion, "But if Howard Geoffrey can’t forget about Becca, why is he still with Alice Robinson? I rember clearly how cruel he was to Becca when they were in Y City!"
Isabella gave her a look, softly reminding, "Christine..."
Only then did Christine Quinn realize that bringing up this topic in such a joyous atmosphere was sowhat inappropriate.
Rebecca Quentin noticed the exchange of glances between her friend and sister, lowered her lashes, and chuckled self-deprecatingly, "You must think I’m really foolish, don’t you?"
Isabella hurriedly said, "No, no... Becca, we didn’t an that."
Christine Quinn also hastily hugged Rebecca Quentin, "Sis didn’t an that either... Sis has always hoped to see you and Howard Geoffrey together, and now that you’ve finally managed to be together, I can’t tell you how happy it makes ... Sis just doesn’t want you to get hurt again!"
At this mont, Rebecca Quentin slowly raised her eyes to look into the distance.
They were laughing and talking, all extrely attractive in appearance, but in her view, the other two were blurry, only he stood out as particularly handso.
With a faint smile in her eyes, Rebecca Quentin hoarsely spoke, "I’ve never asked him about Alice Robinson. If he wishes to tell one day, I’ll listen. But if he doesn’t want to talk about it, I won’t ask him for the rest of my life!"
It’s not that she doesn’t care about his affairs with Alice Robinson, just that she lacks the courage to ask him.
Christine Quinn sighed softly, "I don’t know whether to bla you for being so cautious or to empathize with you... Because if it were , I’d probably make the sa choice as you." Because she cares so much, she has to be cautious.
Isabella also hugged Rebecca Quentin, laughing, "Becca, since you never intended to ask Mr. Geoffrey, then choose to trust him... I always felt Mr. Geoffrey has no ulterior motives for you, even when he was with Alice Robinson, it seed like a show, with no real affection at all..."
Rebecca Quentin was amused by Isabella’s words, "Actually, I also think it seed like a show..."
Christine Quinn laughed heartily.
Roger Leonard looked over at the three won not far away and asked Howard Geoffrey with a smile, "Dora, what do you think those three are laughing and discussing?"
Howard Geoffrey glanced over just in ti to see Rebecca Quentin being amused by her two friends, his lips curving slightly.
Nelson Lewis also looked over and sighed, "I think your sister-in-law is so much better than Alice Robinson, humble, courteous, clearly soone raised in a well-mannered family. anwhile, despite being in a wealthy family too, Alice Robinson grew up arrogant and domineering... I’m glad you’re not really with her, otherwise, I don’t think I’d co to your wedding feast."
Roger Leonard chuckled, "Big brother, Dora completely settled down after eting Becca. Don’t forget that Dora used to be..."
Howard Geoffrey gave Roger Leonard a sidelong look, "Was what?"
Roger Leonard leaned in to whisper to Nelson Lewis, "Big brother, look how afraid Dora is of Becca now, can’t even ntion his past... What man hasn’t had so woman in his past? When Isabella asked, I ca clean!"
Nelson Lewis just smiled without speaking.
Roger Leonard looked innocently into the distance, avoiding Howard Geoffrey’s warning gaze.
Nelson Lewis spoke seriously, "By the way, I saw the recent news, Howard, was the Robinson inheritance case manipulated by you?"
Howard Geoffrey took a sip of wine and coldly said, "I rely stirred so discord among the families."
Roger Leonard shrank back in mock fear, "Dora, I’ve always felt so lucky to have you as a brother in this life..."
"So it seems you’re planning to gradually consu everything Chester Robinson possesses, leaving him with nothing."
"Big brother, if you think Dora rely wants Chester Robinson left with nothing, then you don’t understand Dora at all... Dora always acts in a way that makes life worse than death!" Roger helpfully added.
Nelson Lewis raised his glass to clink with Howard Geoffrey and Roger Leonard, "Then I’ll find a good spot and sit back to enjoy the show!"
Roger Leonard took a sip of wine, nudging Howard Geoffrey with his shoulder, saying seriously, "Dora, why don’t you tell Becca about your dealings with Chester Robinson? You previously ’being with’ Alice Robinson for Becca’s health, if you don’t explain it to her, she might still let her imagination run wild."
Howard Geoffrey nodded, "I know, but now isn’t the ti to tell her."
Roger Leonard was puzzled, "Why?"
Nelson Lewis answered on behalf of Howard Geoffrey, "Two reasons. One, if Becca knew Howard was dealing with Chester Robinson, she might have compassion and try to stop Howard, affecting his plans. Two, if he had to explain everything to Becca, Howard would have to let her know Chester Robinson is the adopted son of M, and Howard doesn’t want M interfering in Becca’s life again."
Roger Leonard responded with an "Oh" and suddenly asked, "If Dora is worried Becca would feel compassion for Chester Robinson, can’t Dora just tell Becca that Chester Robinson is the culprit behind the death of their child?"
Howard Geoffrey sternly replied, "Given Becca’s character, she wouldn’t believe it without solid evidence."
Nelson Lewis nodded in agreent, "Becca has always viewed people in this world through rose-colored glasses, so she would never believe that Chester Robinson, who has been by her side in her lowest tis, has such a true face. The most crucial part is that Chester Robinson even personally perford surgery on Becca..."
Roger Leonard sighed, "Dora, looks like you’ll be busy again for a while..."
Nelson Lewis gave Howard Geoffrey a playful punch, "Don’t forget to marry Becca, even if you’re busy..."
Howard Geoffrey’s lips held a faint smile, "Arrangents are underway."
"Looks like we’ll be coincidentally attending your wedding feast this ti."
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unattended, please try again later..."
Putting down the phone from her ear once more, Rebecca Quentin looked worried.
Christine Quinn walked over, seeing the expression on Rebecca Quentin’s face, she asked with concern, "What’s wrong?"
Rebecca Quentin returned the phone to Christine, "Thank you."
Christine took the phone back, puzzled, "Who were you calling that you needed to use my phone?"
Rebecca Quentin bowed her head, hesitated for a few seconds, then answered, "Chester Robinson."
Christine Quinn slapped herself on the forehead in remorse, "Heavens, I almost forgot you’re friends with him. I actually joked about his family’s issues to you before."
