"Yes." Christine Quinn frowned slightly, "Why would Mom et with Jennifer Douglas?"
"Is Jennifer Douglas trying to pull sothing again?" Rebecca Quentin said disdainfully, "Let’s go take a look!"
Christine Quinn reached out to stop Rebecca Quentin from getting out of the car, "Mom is talking with Jennifer Douglas; it might not be a good idea for us to go over unannounced, right?"
"That’s true... but Mom doesn’t have any good feelings toward Jennifer Douglas, so why would she arrange to et her?"
Christine Quinn gazed at Mrs. Geoffrey, who was speaking with Jennifer Douglas, full of doubts.
Rebecca Quentin said, "Forget it, let’s ask Mom about it when we get ho!"
"Hmm."
Christine Quinn and Rebecca Quentin returned ho shortly after, and Mrs. Geoffrey arrived ho as well.
As soon as Mrs. Geoffrey got ho, Rebecca Quentin and Christine Quinn pulled her into the study.
"Mom..."
"What’s going on?" Mrs. Geoffrey looked lovingly at her two daughters-in-law.
Christine Quinn spoke first, "This afternoon, Becca and I were out shopping and accidentally saw you having coffee with Jennifer Douglas in a café."
Rebecca Quentin said, "Yeah, Mom, why did you et with Jennifer Douglas?"
Mrs. Geoffrey obviously hadn’t expected her eting with Jennifer Douglas to be unwittingly discovered by her two daughters-in-law. She was montarily stunned and then angrily replied, "That woman is scheming to ruin the relationship between Oversky and Christine, so I went to see her just to warn her not to stir up trouble behind our backs."
"Mom, did Jennifer Douglas say sothing to you?" Christine Quinn asked.
Mrs. Geoffrey shook her head and affectionately held Christine Quinn’s hand, "Christine, during the holiday when Oversky took you away, I had Howard Geoffrey investigate the reasons behind the previous conflicts between you and Oversky... It was then I learned that it was Jennifer Douglas stirring trouble behind the scenes. That woman always pretends to be magnanimous but is actually scheming to ruin your and Oversky’s relationship, causing you grievances, which makes really angry."
"What’s this about a photo?" Rebecca Quentin asked, puzzled.
"Becca, I’ll tell you about the photo later." After speaking to Rebecca Quentin, Christine Quinn clasped Mrs. Geoffrey’s hand seriously, "Mom, as long as Oversky and I are steadfast in each other, how could Jennifer Douglas ruin it? You don’t need to worry about Oversky and anymore; your health isn’t great, so you should really focus on resting..."
"I know."
At dinner ti, Skyler Jones and Howard Geoffrey both returned ho on ti.
At this mont, the spacious dining room was bustling with activity.
"It’s so rare for Oversky and Howie to have ti to dine at ho. Usually, if it’s not one coming ho late, it’s both of you not coming ho at all. When do I ever have you sitting with to enjoy a al?" Mrs. Geoffrey complained with a smile.
Skyler Jones wrapped an arm around Christine Quinn, looking indulgent, "I’ve been busy with the headquarters’ relocation lately. Once that’s taken care of, I’ll be able to co ho on ti every day."
Christine Quinn pouted at Skyler Jones, "Really?"
"Of course." Skyler Jones seized the opportunity to steal a kiss from Christine Quinn’s pouting lips, "I promise."
Seeing Skyler Jones’s affectionate gaze, Rebecca Quentin couldn’t help but complain to the person beside her, "Howard Geoffrey, my brother-in-law will have ti to accompany my sister once the headquarters is moved. What about you?"
Howard Geoffrey curved his lips slightly, "Wifey, wasn’t it you who wanted to co back and work?"
Yes, during their months-long holiday on Foam Island, Howard Geoffrey had once ntioned to Rebecca Quentin his idea of leaving the business world to step back, which Rebecca Quentin persuaded him to dismiss at the ti.
"But who else is as busy as you every day?"
"I’m working hard now so I can free up ti later..."
"Free up ti for what?" Rebecca Quentin asked, puzzled.
Howard Geoffrey lightly tapped Rebecca Quentin’s nose, "To take you on a holiday... Didn’t you say that my brother took your sister to the Aegean Island and it was very romantic, and you also wanted to take you..."
Rebecca Quentin was moved to tears, "I just ntioned it casually..."
"But I rembered it in my heart."
"Honey, you’re so good." Rebecca Quentin threw herself into Howard Geoffrey’s arms, completely unconcerned with the eyes watching them.
Christine Quinn said enviously, "Uncle Geoffrey is really good to Auntie..."
Andrew ran over to Rebecca Quentin, shaking her arm, "Mommy, I want to go with you guys too..."
Rebecca Quentin lifted Andrew onto her lap, "Alright, Mommy will take you and Little Nancy together..."
The warm dinner made Christine Quinn feel very happy.
In the room, Christine Quinn curled her slender arms around Skyler Jones’s neck, sitting on his lap, her eyes srizingly seductive as she teased him, "Tell , if you’re already this busy before the headquarters has moved to New York, how could you possibly have more ti to be with afterward?"
Skyler Jones wrapped his large hand around Christine Quinn’s slender waist, his thin lips curved into a smile, "Don’t you believe ?"
Christine Quinn poked Skyler Jones’s lips, "Of course, to many n, work is more important than their wife."
"But you’ve forgotten this is New York... When I’m not working, I can slack off because soone will be watching the company for ."
Christine Quinn narrowed her eyes, pondering for a mont, then suddenly caught on and said, "You an Howard Geoffrey?"
"Once the company relocates to New York, we’ll consider rging it then. At that point, he’ll take on the title of president, and I’ll just be a shareholder enjoying dividends and salary, taking you around the world..."
"What about Becca?"
"Then should I manage the company?"
"Uh..."
Christine Quinn and Skyler Jones didn’t know, in the room opposite them, another couple entangled on the bed was also discussing the sa issue...
Rebecca Quentin’s small hand pressed against the man’s chest coming down, "No way, you haven’t told clearly what it ans for you to have ti with in the future? Don’t you care about the company anymore when we’re on a holiday?"
"Soone will manage it for ."
"Who?"
"Who do you think?"
Rebecca Quentin exclaid in surprise, "You an brother-in-law? How could that be? Brother-in-law just promised my sister that he would have plenty of ti to be with her in the future..."
"’Skytop’ and ’Oversky’ will later rge. There will be only one president for the company..."
"You an?"
"If the president’s title is with my brother, do you think I would have plenty of ti to be with you?"
"Then brother-in-law won’t have ti to be with my sister..."
