Chapter 1006 - 517: Extra Story: A Forever Happy Family of Four 1_2
Christine Quinn stayed silent, unwilling to disrupt this moment.She quietly gazed at him, feeling a surge of emotion rise in her throat.
From love to separation, then reunion and reconciliation... They had endured so many hardships together.
She used to complain that fate was especially harsh with her, but today she finally realized that fate had not been unkind at all...
Fate had not only blessed her with a sensible and obedient daughter, but also a little baby who looked exactly like him... And he would never leave her alone again.
Christine suddenly felt a heat in her eyes, an indescribable tide of emotion swelling within her.
This tide was so overwhelming that before she could control it, her tears had already burst forth like a flood.
She didn’t know why she had become so tearful...
She was just very content with having him by her side, especially seeing how much he cared for her and the child.
"Christine." He noticed her and called hoarsely.
Christine smiled at him, yet her tears continued to fall unbidden.
Skyler Jones was startled and quickly rushed to her side, embracing her, "What’s wrong? Why are you crying?"
Christine’s body was frail from just having the baby, and she leaned softly against his embrace.
"What’s the matter? Are you feeling unwell?" Skyler asked worriedly.
Christine shook her head, raising her eyes, gazing deeply at him, tears glistening.
"Why are you crying?" Skyler tenderly wiped the tear stains around Christine’s eyes, his actions full of affection.
Christine smiled, her teary visage faintly glowing with a gentle sacredness, leaving him unable to look away.
Skyler wrapped his arms around Christine, holding her slightly cold hand after leaving the blankets, his chin resting on her forehead, asking, "What’s the matter?"
Christine looked up at Skyler, her voice unimaginably hoarse, "I just can’t believe... I finally married you, bore your children, and will simply and happily continue with you."
She didn’t understand why; she was never this tearful before... but in front of him, she always felt vulnerable.
"Silly..." Skyler tightly gripped Christine’s hand against his chest, "It was fate’s mercy that I met you in this life... You fulfilled my wish to hold your hand and grow old with you."
Christine’s voice was too hoarse to speak...
Skyler kissed her gently on the lips.
They embraced intimately, in peace and beauty.
After a long time, a conversation resumed inside the room, "Did the baby cry just now?"
"Mm, you heard it?" Skyler smiled. "That little guy cries so loudly, maybe he’s hungry, wants his mommy to feed him, but I rocked him a few times and he fell asleep again..."
"I still don’t have milk now, you better make him some formula... When he wakes he’s sure to want to eat."
"Mm..."
The room continued to echo their blissful voices, but their happiness would never cease.
After Christine returned from the hospital...
Mrs. Geoffrey, according to the Flowery Kingdom’s traditional customs, insisted Christine was to rest properly during her confinement, only permitted to lie down and do nothing.
Skyler was also very anxious, fearing Christine wouldn’t recover properly, he directly took leave from work and didn’t go to the company.
Ernie, Skyler’s secretary, naturally knew the boss had just had a child and would celebrate for some time, but the company affairs still needed decision-makers, so calls kept coming to the boss...
Unfortunately, the current Skyler was fully content with his son, ignoring all company calls, making Ernie anxious enough to seek out the Geoffrey family...
Who would’ve thought, upon reaching the Geoffrey’s residence, Skyler only told Ernie that if things couldn’t be handled, pass them to the deputy for the company, and if the deputy couldn’t handle it, go directly to Howard Geoffrey, the president of the Skytop Group across the street...
Howard Geoffrey had already planned a vacation with his wife Rebecca Quentin, considering Rebecca had always envied President Jones’s romantic journey to the Aegean Sea with his sweet wife. Geoffrey had kept this in mind, secretly planning to surprise his beloved wife with a romantic getaway. Just as he found some leisure time to prepare the surprise, the deputy from Oversky hurriedly came to him...
The deputy of Oversky brought stacks of files, either to have Howard review decisions or sign them...
Howard was stunned upon seeing all these files but thought of his brother recently celebrating the birth of his child, and decided to accommodate him.
So, Howard employed his astute and wise intellect, taking two days to resolve all of Oversky’s existing issues and decisions...
After resolving these matters, Howard put aside his work and announced to his secretary that he was going on a vacation, but, unexpectedly, just on the day he applied for his leave with the secretary, the deputy from Oversky came to him again...
It isn’t that the deputy from Oversky was incompetent, it’s just that the vast Oversky Group encountered countless issues daily; they resolved what they could, but some matters truly needed the decision-maker’s direct involvement. Hence, the deputy was forced to seek out Howard once more, since his own boss was indulging too much in the joys of fatherhood, forsaking even the grand company.
However, today, Howard flew into a rage...
Helping to manage Oversky once or twice wasn’t much trouble, but multiple instances, especially disrupting his sweet vacation with his beloved wife, was too much.
Howard thought, if Skyler wanted to use this as an opportunity to hand over Oversky to him, no way!! He had long planned for the merger of Oversky and Skytop, the leading figure must be his elder brother.
This day, Howard returned home in a fit of anger...
Rebecca just finished soothing the little girl to sleep and was teaching Andrew his lessons when she suddenly saw her husband’s rare angry face, fiery with rage, so she quickly approached to comfort her husband, "Honey, what’s wrong?"
Howard tossed his briefcase onto the sofa, angrily loosened his tie, and headed straight for his brother’s room.
Inside the brother’s room, time was as serene as ever.
On the large bed, someone was holding his sweet wife, sleeping peacefully and contently.
Beside them, in the cradle, a pink little baby clenched his tiny fists, sleeping sweetly in a surrendering pose.
