Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 820 - 424: Extra: Launching a Scheming Offensive
I don’t love you anymore, Skyler Jones, I don’t want to have any entanglements with you in this whole life...
Oversky, tell me, how can I make it up to you? As long as I can do it, I’m willing to give you everything.
Now you owe me nothing, and I owe you nothing, we’re even, let’s end our fate here.
Oversky, you’re asleep now, and tomorrow I have to go to Howard Geoffrey’s place... I really want to ask you, what do you really think of me now? When can I return to your side? Do we have a future? Are you willing to start over with me?
If you pity me for not having a single happy day in the past ten-plus years, I beg you for a way out, so I can have a chance to breathe and get to know the people around me again, start my new life.
The words she said to him played over and over in his mind.
As if deliberately trying to embarrass him, making him recall his former coldness and determination over and over again...
He lost her...
He lost her completely...
This whole life, he would never have the chance to have her again, she no longer loved him, but he loved her, what should he do?
Looking at the rain in the sky, he shouted to the heavens, "Christine Quinn, I can give you a peaceful life, but I’ll never give up!!"
Christine Quinn only found out that Skyler Jones was sick when she came to his villa the next day to pick up Marie.
No one would have thought that Skyler Jones, a man so tall and strong, would get sick, so Christine Quinn was very surprised when she found out.
It was the weekend, and Christine Quinn originally planned to take Marie to the amusement park, but with Skyler Jones falling ill, Christine Quinn had to abandon this idea and decided to stay in the villa with Marie.
Marie was obviously down because of her father’s illness, at this moment lying sadly on Christine Quinn’s knee.
Sitting on the sofa, Christine Quinn gently asked her daughter, "What’s wrong, Marie..."
"Why would Daddy get sick? Daddy never gets sick."
"Everyone gets sick!"
"But Daddy was fine last night, how come he’s sick today?"
The passing butler said, "Missy, Mr. Jones only got back at dawn last night and was drenched in rain... I think it’s the rain."
"Really? Why did Daddy get caught in the rain? Didn’t he drive out?"
The butler said, "I don’t know about that... nor do I know how long he was in the rain, otherwise, with someone as healthy as Mr. Jones, how could he get sick so easily."
Christine Quinn remembered the sudden downpour from last night.
If he didn’t come home until dawn after leaving the hotel, then he was in the rain for at least four hours last night...
No matter how healthy a person is, getting rained on for so long is bound to get sick.
Christine Quinn felt a tinge of guilt rising in her heart.
She knew it was she who provoked him last night; he was never a person to lose his mind like this.
"Mommy, Mommy..."
"Hmm, ah?"
"What are you thinking about?" Marie tilted her head and asked Christine Quinn.
Christine Quinn looked down at her daughter, "Was it you who found out your dad was sick?"
Marie nodded, "Daddy didn’t come to have breakfast with me, so I went to call him..."
"Was your daddy’s head very hot?"
"Yeah, the doctor said Daddy has a fever."
"Hasn’t the fever gone down yet?"
"Yeah... so I’m really worried about Daddy."
"Don’t worry anymore... a cold and fever can be taken care of with some medicine and a shot."
"But Daddy won’t let anyone give him a shot, nor does he take medicine..."
"This..." Christine Quinn was embarrassed. For such a grown man, getting a shot is indeed a bit... cowardly.
Marie suddenly said, "Mommy, I want to go up to see Daddy, do you want to come with me?"
"I..."
Marie pulled Christine Quinn to her feet, "Come on, come on... just as if you’re visiting a friend."
Unable to refuse Marie, Christine Quinn finally followed Marie up to the second floor.
Skyler Jones’ room had the curtains drawn, making it a bit dark.
From afar, he lay on the bed, his demeanor calm, his breathing steady, looking as if he was just asleep.
Marie came to the bedside, touched Skyler Jones’ forehead, "Wow, still very hot..." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
"Really?" Quinn instinctively walked to the bedside and reached out to touch his forehead, "Really very hot... has he had a fever since last night?"
The butler behind them replied, "Yes... we’ve never had Mr. Jones get sick before, so we don’t know what to do..."
