Chapter 751: Chapter 389: Extra Story: How She Wished He Would Remember Her Forever_2

The announcement started on the plane, reminding them of the impending flight.

"Marie, we’re going in."

Marilyn Quinn looked calmly at her parents, "Daddy, Mommy, we’re parting ways, aren’t you going to give us a hug?"

Christine Quinn and Skyler Jones exchanged a glance, understanding each other, and smiled. Skyler pulled Christine into his arms.

Christine also reached out to hug Skyler, but upon closer inspection, you could see her hands were trembling slightly.

As they released each other, Skyler lightly pecked Christine’s beautiful face.

Marie’s face was full of happiness.

Many people noticed them, which made Christine blush involuntarily.

Skyler gently held her face and said tenderly, "Honey, I love you."

Christine nodded, replying lovingly, "I love you too."

Finally, waving goodbye to Skyler, Christine walked into the security check with Marie.

After passing through security in the departure lounge, Christine clutched her chest, her body suddenly going weak, almost falling over, but luckily having Marie to hold on to.

Seeing her mother collapse suddenly, Marilyn was startled and quickly supported her mother, calling out in panic, "Mommy..."

Christine slowly crouched down, grabbing her chest tightly.

"Mommy, what’s wrong? Don’t scare Marie..."

The sudden pain in her heart almost made Christine unable to speak, beads of sweat started forming on her forehead.

"Mommy, are you not feeling well? I’ll go get Daddy..."

Marilyn turned to rush out of the security checkpoint, but Christine reached out and stopped her just in time.

Luckily, the pain was severe but short. She forced herself to take a couple of deep breaths, and the pain eased.

Christine’s voice was weak, "Mommy’s fine... help Mommy go rest over there."

"But Mommy, you look so uncomfortable..." Marilyn tightly held her mother.

She was indeed uncomfortable...

These days, the frequency of pain in her heart was increasing.

Especially from last night to today, it happened twice, which seemed to mean... her health might not be as good as she assumed.

After sitting down and resting for a minute, the pain gradually weakened, and Christine was about to reassure her daughter, only to find her daughter making a call on her phone.

"Marie, who are you calling?"

"Daddy!"

What?

Christine’s face turned even paler than before. As she tried to grab Marie’s phone, the call had already connected.

On the other end, Skyler Jones, not knowing it was Marie on the line, spoke coldly, "What’s the matter?"

In her haste, Marie didn’t notice her father’s tone. She nervously told him, "Daddy, Mommy isn’t feeling well and almost fainted just now..."

"Really? Hand the phone to your Mommy."

Marilyn quickly handed the phone to Christine.

In helplessness, Christine held the phone to her ear, "Hmm?"

"Not feeling well?" he asked.

"It’s nothing serious, you know..." Thankfully, a similar incident last night gave her an excuse.

"If you’re really not feeling well, change to another flight instead!"

"No... um, I need to board the plane now, that’s it!" Christine hastily hung up the call, breathing a sigh of relief.

Marie watched her mother without blinking, "Mommy..."

To prevent Marilyn from asking more questions, Christine quickly pulled her daughter towards the boarding gate, "Mommy isn’t seriously ill, let’s go, we’re the only ones left to board."

Humans invented airplanes, which are truly remarkable. They allow people who were close in the same room last night to be separated by vast distances in an instant.

The day after Christine Quinn returned to Y City, Jonathon Gibson called her.

Christine hadn’t planned to see Jonathon again, returning to Y City was a convenient excuse, but unexpectedly, Jonathon flew from New York to Y City.

From afar, Jonathon waved to her.

Christine took a look around this most upscale French restaurant in Y City, took a deep breath, and then walked towards Jonathon.

Jonathon chose a seat by the window, offering a great view of the bustling street below through the floor-to-ceiling glass.

Christine sat down across from Jonathon, her brows slightly furrowed.

Jonathon asked with a smile, "You don’t mind I’ve already ordered the food for you, do you?"

"Jonathon, I’m not here to have a meal with you today..."

"I know, I’ve been in Y City for so many days, and you only agreed to come out today."

Christine confessed with guilt, "If I’ve done anything before that made you misunderstand, I apologize, but I..."

"There’s really no possibility of a future between us, is there?" Jonathon reclined against the chair, a lazy smile hanging on his lips as he looked at her.

Christine nodded.

Jonathon chuckled softly, "Don’t overthink, I just want you to treat this as a friendly gathering."

"But I..."

"I should be the one saying ’sorry.’ I must have scared you last time, right?"

Christine glanced at the smiling Jonathon, and eventually returned a slight smile, "You did scare me... but seeing you now, it seems you were joking last time."

Jonathon replied with a laugh.

He didn’t answer, for deep down they both knew she was merely trying to ease the awkwardness between them, and he didn’t want to be impulsive again, or she truly might never see him again.

"The food here is quite good, let’s eat first!"

"Alright."

During their elegant meal, Christine remarked with a smile, "You really scared me before, thinking you came back to the country just for me."

"A new project in T City required my attention... since there’s not much happening these days, I came to Y City to see you, but unfortunately, you kept refusing before."

Christine awkwardly said, "Sorry."

"It’s alright, at least you agreed to meet me today... I’m going to T City tomorrow."

"As the chairman of international business, traveling to various countries, actually your work is quite enviable."

"That’s why I chose this job in the first place."

"I know you like being free; you wouldn’t enjoy a job sitting in an office every day."
