CHAPTER 394: CHAPTER 210: I JUST WANT TO CHERISH YOU 2

Rebecca Quentin nestled in Howard Geoffrey’s arms, wrapping her hands around him, and softly said, "I must have let you down, otherwise you wouldn’t be staying alone in the study."

"I do have some worries, but they are about the company, not because of you, darling." Howard Geoffrey affectionately kissed Rebecca Quentin’s drooping eyelashes.

Rebecca Quentin met Howard Geoffrey’s gaze and asked uncertainly, "Are you really not bothered that I set aside our registration today for my mother’s matter?"

"Your mother’s matter, it’s indeed quite a shock for you."

Rebecca Quentin hoarsely admitted, "All day today, I’ve been feeling very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable... I never thought there would be a day when I could meet my own mother, nor did I expect her to be so cruel and heartless to me..."

Howard Geoffrey gazed into Rebecca Quentin’s slightly watery, clear eyes, "Darling, do you want to see her?"

Rebecca Quentin’s eyes turned slightly dazed as she slowly spoke, "I do, of course I do... I want to see a mother who can give warmth and care to her child, not a cold-blooded woman indifferent and hurtful to her own daughter, so she doesn’t deserve me to see her..." By the end, Rebecca Quentin was choking back sobs.

Who could imagine that when a person who grew up without a mother knew that her mother was still alive in this world, she wouldn’t be able to be happy at all, with only disappointment and sadness in her heart.

Howard Geoffrey gently asked, "Have you thought it through?"

Rebecca Quentin nodded solemnly, "Yes, I’ve thought it through... I won’t acknowledge her, nor will I meet her, since I am insignificant to her, then she’s not worth me missing and cherishing."

Howard Geoffrey spoke with self-reproach, "Darling, do you still blame me for dealing with your mother’s matter?"

Rebecca Quentin answered truthfully, "No, I don’t blame you, I know you don’t want me to be sad."

Howard Geoffrey’s voice turned hoarse, "I promise you, if it hadn’t been your mother pushing step by step, I would never have acted harshly against her."

"Howard Geoffrey, honestly, I can’t understand why she hates the Geoffrey family so much? Isn’t she the one who started the grudges from the previous generation?"

"That part I don’t quite understand either, but I know, between her and my mom, there’s always been hostility, and they loathe each other deeply."

"Indeed, the grudges of the previous generation are beyond us to untangle now... So, I don’t want to think about my mother’s matter anymore, since I’ve gone over twenty years without a mother by my side, why should I care about this suddenly appearing mother who treats me as nothing?" Rebecca Quentin emphasized the last word "mother," with all her sorrow and disappointment condensed in it.

Howard Geoffrey remained silent, watching tears stream from Rebecca Quentin’s eyes.

He knew well, her current words were spoken in anger...

The revelation of Vivian Lindsey’s existence might bring her pain and disappointment, but Vivian Lindsey is, after all, her mother. He understood, with her kind nature, she can’t be so heartless...

So, he quietly watched her release her downcast emotions, holding her, allowing her tears and snot to wipe onto his expensive shirt.

It was a long time before Rebecca Quentin calmed down...

She took a deep breath to suppress the lingering emotions in her heart, speaking in a calm tone, "Husband, can I ask you a favor?"

"Hmm." Howard Geoffrey gently wiped away the remaining tear traces at Rebecca Quentin’s eyes with his thumb.

"I want to know her situation in prison?"

Howard Geoffrey tucked Rebecca Quentin’s hair behind her ear, softly saying, "I knew it, you still care about her after all."

Rebecca Quentin didn’t answer, just hugged Howard Geoffrey tighter, asking, "Is that okay?"

"Okay, I’ll have someone inquire about her situation, but you have to promise me not to let this matter affect your emotions again, it’s not good for the baby."

Rebecca Quentin nodded lightly, "Okay."

Two days later.

The sun was bright and Rebecca Quentin was in the garden with Mrs. Geoffrey taking care of Andrew.

Perhaps because of today’s good weather, Rebecca Quentin’s mood was much better than the past two days.

Mrs. Geoffrey was holding Andrew, feeding him, and seeing Rebecca Quentin’s much improved complexion from the past two days, couldn’t help but relax her worries, smiling, "Are you feeling better in the past two days?"

Upon hearing Mrs. Geoffrey’s question, Rebecca Quentin was initially taken aback, then realized, nodding, "Yes." Her mood had been low the past two days, and to prevent his mom from noticing anything unusual, Howard Geoffrey lied saying she wasn’t feeling well, which she went along with, not wanting his mom to know the matter about her mother.
