But she never expected that what Jonathon Gibson told her was true; everything was confird...
Finally, she had to face the words Jonathon said, his firm decision not to want children, which was probably because he didn’t look forward to this child very much.
She was so foolish...
She was desperate to give birth to his child, but he didn’t care at all... Her efforts to have a child suddenly seed clumsy and laughable.
Tears moistened her eyes, Christine Quinn tightly closed her eyes, refusing to show her vulnerability in front of others.
A certain Cherry Blossom Town in Lyon, France.
Although it’s not the season for cherry blossoms, strolling through this romantic town, Christine Quinn felt particularly comfortable and at ease.
Compared to the past few days, her heart was much calr.
Sitting on a long bench under a cherry blossom tree, Christine Quinn took out her phone and turned it on after having it off for several days.
This was the first ti she turned it on in days.
She had long expected that once she turned it on, she would receive many ssages, and indeed...
One ssage after another flooded her phone, about a hundred in total.
She looked through them one by one...
Most of these ssages were from Becca, and so were from Marie...
Every ssage hoped for her return...
After reading these ssages, she felt very saddened; however, among all the ssages and call notifications, she found none from Skyler Jones...
This indicated that in these few days, Skyler didn’t send her a ssage or call her.
It seed everyone cared about her, except him.
Her heart sank, as if it fell heavily into the abyss...
She slowly put down her phone and gave a foolish smile.
He must have seen the words she left him in the diary...
She could already guess his reaction.
Initially, surprise, followed by self-bla and guilt, but eventually, he would agree with her decision...
Her departure was the best choice for both her and him.
She had long imagined he could accept such an outco, she just hadn’t expected him not even to make a call...
Knowing the ending would be this sad, her heart still couldn’t bear it.
He didn’t know that won are contradictory creatures...
Vowing to leave, yet secretly hoping he might persuade her to stay...
But it further confird that her decision was correct, his care and gentleness were only out of responsibility, and without responsibility, he didn’t need to continue acting.
Not wanting her sister to worry about her, Christine Quinn took out her phone and dialed Rebecca Quentin’s number.
Rebecca imdiately answered the call, anxiously blurting out, "Thank goodness, Sis, you finally called. Do you know how worried I am about you?"
Christine Quinn replied with a strained voice, "I know... I’m sorry, Becca, for worrying you all."
"Where are you right now?"
"I’m in a very peaceful town in France."
"I know... Howard Geoffrey has checked your immigration records, but he could only verify that you’re in France, without pinpointing your exact location."
Of course, they couldn’t find her because she didn’t use any transport requiring a na registration, nor did she use her phone, so they couldn’t track her exact location.
"Where I am isn’t important... The important thing is I’m doing well, so don’t worry about , I’m just out for so fresh air."
"When are you coming back?"
"I don’t know..."
"Sis, are you having a falling out with your husband?"
Christine Quinn took a deep breath, suppressing the ache in her chest, "Becca, I’m not having a falling out with him, I’m facing reality."
"What issues are there between you two?"
"I don’t want to talk about it, Becca... Sotis feelings can’t be forced."
"No wonder your husband hasn’t returned from his business trip yet..."
"He... hasn’t returned?"
"Yes, he still hasn’t co back, and we can’t get in touch with him."
"Perhaps he has sothing important to attend to."
"What is important? Lying and saying he’s on a business trip to France is important? I asked Howard Geoffrey, and there are no new projects in the second half of the year, so your husband definitely didn’t go to France for work... I think the reason you left is surely because your husband is hiding sothing from you."
