CHAPTER 378: CHAPTER 202: JOINING THE GEOFFREY FAMILY (PART 2)
Howard Geoffrey glanced at the displayed number and said gently to Rebecca Quentin, "Our son might be hungry, go make some milk for him."
Rebecca Quentin nodded slightly, "Okay."
Just as Rebecca Quentin was about to stand up, Howard Geoffrey pulled her and affectionately kissed her on the cheek. Rebecca Quentin blushed and carried Andrew into the room.
Only then did Howard Geoffrey turn his gaze back to the phone screen. He stood up, walked to the window, his whole body exuding an inexplicable coldness, one hand in his pocket, the other pressing the phone’s answer button, "It’s rare for you to call me."
On the other side, Skyler Jones’s voice was low and cold, "Christine Quinn told me, are you now with Becca?"
Howard Geoffrey’s cold gaze looked ahead, "I thought this was a natural progression."
Skyler Jones gritted his teeth, "What right do you have?"
Howard Geoffrey squinted, the light filtering through his eyes showed a hint of displeasure, his thin lips cold, "By being Andrew’s father, and also the father of her unborn child."
Skyler Jones’s voice became even more irritable, "Have you forgotten what you’ve done?"
Howard Geoffrey chuckled softly, "Rebecca and I did have many misunderstandings before, but now they’ve all been resolved. I believe we are destined for a beautiful future."
Skyler Jones, angry, "There’s no need to fool me, you know what I mean."
Howard Geoffrey, indifferent, "Brother, I really don’t understand..."
Skyler Jones was raging, his voice trembling with suppressed anger, "Howard Geoffrey, in the past, I didn’t want to mention this because I believed your rationality wouldn’t allow you to make such an emotional decision. But I never thought you’d be so selfish... Have you considered, if Becca knew what you’ve done, would she still want to be with you? You’ve hurt her enough; why can’t you give her a peaceful life? Do you really think you can make her happy?"
"Happiness is not defined by you but by Becca, you have no right to judge."
"I don’t have the right, but I know anyone can be with Becca, except you!"
Howard Geoffrey coldly laughed, "Do you think I can’t make her happy, or do you want to make her happy yourself?"
Facing Howard Geoffrey’s disdain, Skyler Jones threatened, "Howard Geoffrey, if you insist on being with Becca, I won’t sit idly by!"
Howard Geoffrey sneered, "What do you mean by not sitting idly by?"
"If I know Becca will one day endure an unbearable pain, I’d rather let her see the truth before she gets too deeply involved."
Howard Geoffrey smirked, still cold and arrogant, "You’re welcome to try. I think even if you talk to her directly, she may not believe you."
"You..."
"Brother, wish me and Becca well. We’ll soon get registered... Perhaps I can’t recover the past, but I can promise you, I’ll give her a beautiful future."
"No, you don’t deserve Becca... I won’t let Becca endure such pain one day." Skyler Jones, emotionally agitated, gritted his teeth.
But Howard Geoffrey remained calm. After Skyler Jones finished speaking, he slowly said, "Brother, there’s not much I want in this life, just her."
Rebecca Quentin came out from the room just as Howard Geoffrey ended the call with Skyler Jones.
Rebecca Quentin originally wanted to call out to him but was mesmerized by his proud silhouette.
He stood so tall and upright, his back graceful and handsome, yet at this moment inexplicably radiating a sense of desolation...
It felt as if a layer of darkness enveloped his slender figure, making him appear hazy, deterring others from approaching.
Yet his body simultaneously exuded a familiar masculine vibe, prompting her to want to absorb more of it, to gain the security he provided.
Slowly walking over, Rebecca Quentin suddenly reached out from behind and embraced Howard Geoffrey.
Howard Geoffrey was momentarily stunned, holding Rebecca Quentin’s slender hand in his, "Why didn’t you call out when you came?"
Rebecca Quentin pressed her face against Howard Geoffrey’s broad back, "You were too absorbed in your thoughts."
Howard Geoffrey raised Rebecca Quentin’s hand and gently kissed it, "Where’s Andrew?"
"He drank some milk and fell asleep."
"He’s really a little guy who loves to eat and sleep!"
Rebecca Quentin moved away from Howard Geoffrey’s back, frowning displeased, "Hey, nobody talks about their own child like that."
Howard Geoffrey turned around, pulling Rebecca Quentin’s hand to wrap around his strong waist, while he embraced her, "I just think children’s world is simple."
