CHAPTER 333: CHAPTER 179: FAREWELL 3
Rebecca Quentin laughed even more because of the child’s expression.
At that moment, Howard Geoffrey and Rebecca Quentin seemed to be lost in the moment, immersed in the warmth of their little family.
However, the second announcement calling for boarding at the airport brought them back to reality instantly...
Rebecca Quentin glanced at the airport time and said, "It’s almost boarding time, if I don’t go through security now, I’ll miss it."
"Alright," Howard Geoffrey responded.
Rebecca Quentin then took Andrew from Howard Geoffrey’s arms.
Once Andrew was back in Rebecca Quentin’s arms, he seemed displeased and looked like he was about to pout and cry.
Rebecca Quentin quickly spoke to Andrew, coaxing him.
Andrew was easily pacified, and his focus shifted...
Once Andrew was calm, Rebecca Quentin took the documents and boarding pass from Howard Geoffrey’s hand and said quietly, "I’m leaving now..."
"Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
As Rebecca Quentin was about to turn toward the security checkpoint, she suddenly seemed to remember something and turned back, saying to Howard Geoffrey, "I’m sorry, I must tell you... If we meet in the future, let’s not greet each other anymore. We each have our own lives to live, and I don’t want to affect our future lives."
Howard Geoffrey’s Adam’s apple moved slightly, "Okay."
Rebecca Quentin then carried Andrew into the security checkpoint.
Howard Geoffrey turned around and left the airport.
Rebecca Quentin still turned her head to look in the direction where Howard Geoffrey had been.
But he was no longer there, all she could see was his tall, retreating figure.
At this moment, Rebecca Quentin felt a slow surge of heartache spreading in her chest. She took a deep breath, opened her eyes wide, refusing to allow herself any hesitation, and walked directly into the departure lounge.
The car sped away on the road leaving the airport.
Howard Geoffrey gripped the steering wheel tightly, his mind filled with the inseparable image of that beautiful figure.
Suddenly, he stopped the car by a seashore, took off his sunglasses, and got out of the car.
Leaning against the car, he gazed at the vast, open deep blue sea in the distance.
Looking at the sea, he couldn’t help but think of Foam Island...
The most beautiful memories of his life were there.
Blue skies, azure waters, sunshine, and sandy beaches, the whole world seemed to consist of just him and her.
He liked her helpless expression when he teased her, and he cherished the days they spent entwined, day and night on the island, free and unburdened, without any worries.
Back then, he could easily hold onto her, but now, she was like sand slipping through his fingers; the tighter he grasped, the faster she slipped away...
A week later, T City.
At night, seven o’clock, in a small apartment not quite in the city center, Rebecca Quentin played with Andrew on the bed in the room.
"Andrew, look, this is a little duck, with white feathers, a yellow beak, and red feet..." Rebecca Quentin held a flashcard, teaching the child to recognize the animals.
Andrew was only a little over three months old but was exceptionally clever. When Rebecca Quentin was teaching him, he listened obediently, and only after she finished speaking did he pick up the card to play with.
Rebecca Quentin played with Andrew until almost nine o’clock, and only then did Andrew finally fall asleep...
After putting Andrew to sleep in the crib, Rebecca Quentin also lay tiredly on the bed.
Lately, she didn’t know why, but she constantly felt very tired, even more so than when taking care of the child was harder before.
Rebecca Quentin closed her eyes and was just feeling sleepy when the phone rang.
With her eyes closed, she fumbled for the phone and glanced at the number displayed on the screen. Smiling, she pressed the answer key, "Isabella."
"Becca, you’re not asleep yet, right?"
"Hmm, not yet."
"It’s been a while since I called you. How have you been?"
"I’m doing as usual. What about you? The happy pregnant woman, are you alright?"
"Don’t tease me. I’m so bloated now, I’ve gained quite a few pounds..."
"It’s normal to gain weight during pregnancy; it’s fine, as long as General Leonard doesn’t mind."
"He hasn’t said anything, but I’m afraid if I continue like this, I won’t fit into my wedding dress..."
Wedding dress?
Rebecca Quentin suddenly opened her eyes wide, "Isabella, are you getting married?"
Isabella Joanna spoke sweetly, "Mm-hmm... Becca, Roger proposed to me. The wedding is set for next month!"
Rebecca Quentin exclaimed excitedly, "Congratulations, Isabella, I’m truly happy for you!!"
"Becca, will you come to my wedding next month?"
"I..."
Isabella Joanna interjected, "I know you’re in Olton with the child and it’s inconvenient. Even if you can’t come, it’s okay, I just wanted to share my joy with you..."
