Contract Marriage: Abusive Love with Mr.CEO-Chapter 783 - 405: Extra Story: Swearing to Find You 2_2
"She didn’t tell you?"
"Tell me what?" Rebecca Quentin asked, puzzled. "Is there something I don’t know about?"
"She didn’t tell you she left the country with Jonathon Gibson?"
"No, she left the country with Jonathon Gibson?" Rebecca was very surprised.
How could she not even tell her own sister?
Skyler Jones was filled with questions.
"Brother-in-law, make it clear, my sister left the country? When did she leave the country? How could she go with Jonathon Gibson?" Rebecca anxiously blurted out.
"Becca, your sister left last night with Jonathon Gibson... Today, Marie also couldn’t reach her on the phone, and I’m trying to find a way to contact her."
"Even if she’s going abroad with Jonathon Gibson, she would have said something... Brother-in-law, my sister wouldn’t be in any trouble, would she?"
"She’s with Jonathon Gibson, so there shouldn’t be any trouble."
"But we don’t even know where she is right now..."
"Don’t worry, I’ll get in touch with her."
"How can I not worry? My sister has been acting a bit strange lately..."
"Strange?"
"Yes, recently on calls she kept saying some inexplicable things, like telling me to take good care of myself... Because she used to say those things to me, I didn’t take it seriously. But now, unable to contact her, I’m really worried something might have happened to her..."
"You don’t have to worry too much. She was fine when she left last night. If she really said those things to you, it shows this was all part of her plan, so you really don’t need to worry."
"I can’t remain as calm as you. I’m asking Howard Geoffrey to help me find her!!" Angrily uttering this, Rebecca immediately hung up the phone.
Skyler Jones’s face turned gloomy, and he was pondering over Rebecca’s words.
Just then, "Daddy, Daddy..."
Marie rushed in from outside.
"Hmm?"
Marie said, gasping for air, "I accidentally found a letter from mommy in the drawer of the bedside cabinet."
"A letter?"
Marie urgently handed over the letter. "Look."
Skyler Jones took the letter, looking at the elegant handwriting on the paper—
To mommy’s most beloved daughter, Marie:
Dear daughter, when you read this letter, mommy has already gone far away... Please forgive mommy for not being able to take care of you anymore. I hope you will listen to your daddy and grow up healthy and happy, don’t miss mommy.
Just a very brief letter, clearly, Christine Quinn knew everyone would worry when they couldn’t contact her, so she left this letter for Marie, hoping to reassure everyone.
However, when Skyler Jones finished reading the letter he crumpled it fiercely into a ball.
Marie anxiously asked, "Daddy, what does mommy mean in the letter? She said she went far away and can’t look after me anymore. Isn’t she coming back?"
"No!!"
"But what does mommy mean by saying she can’t take care of me anymore?"
Despite the fire burning in his heart, Skyler Jones had to remain calm, patiently comforting Marie, "Your mommy already told me last night, she’s just leaving for a while. She’ll be back soon. She just didn’t want you to miss her, that’s why she left you this letter."
Hearing her father say this, Marie finally relaxed, patting her chest, "Phew, I thought mommy wasn’t coming back..."
Skyler Jones ruffled his daughter’s hair, "Silly girl, how could your mommy not come back? She... she couldn’t bear to leave you."
Marie nodded, "Yeah, mommy wouldn’t bear to leave me. She will definitely come back."
Skyler Jones finally managed to coax Marie to sleep.
The room returned to its tranquility.
Skyler Jones saw the papers he’d tossed into the corner earlier, his mind in turmoil...
Suddenly, he picked up the phone and dialed a number.
He ordered his men to find Christine Quinn’s whereabouts!!
He thought he wouldn’t care about her whereabouts at all, but upon seeing the letter she left, besides the surging anger in his chest, there was more fear.
The meaning of her letter was clearly telling Marie she won’t be coming back...
Despite a twelve-year-old child not fully understanding, he clearly grasped the underlying meaning of her words.
How could she not come back?
No, he would not allow it!!
That night, Skyler Jones went nowhere, he sat on the sofa in the room, waiting for his men to bring news of Christine Quinn.
At nine that night, his men reported they couldn’t find Christine Quinn’s whereabouts.
At one in the morning, his men again reported no sign of Christine Quinn, she wasn’t on record leaving at any major airport.
At four in the morning, he frantically called Howard Geoffrey.
For years, he’s rarely called Howard Geoffrey, but this time, it was for Christine Quinn.
Howard Geoffrey seemed to already know why Skyler Jones was calling, so before Skyler could say anything, he already responded, "Not me."
Skyler Jones gritted his teeth and angrily said, "If it wasn’t for you helping her hide her whereabouts, how could she disappear like air and vanish?"
Howard Geoffrey calmly replied, "If she intends to hide from you, she naturally wouldn’t let you find her."
"She has no reason to hide from me!!"
"Oh, she has plenty of reason... Only by staying away from you can she start a new life. She’s already given up on you, Brother, don’t you realize it?"
"I don’t need your preaching!!" With that, Skyler Jones ended the call abruptly.
The next morning, Skyler Jones nonchalantly had breakfast with Marie and personally sent her to school.
Marie, after all, was a child. Believing his promise that Christine Quinn would return, she peacefully went to school.
He went to the company, and before the company gates he saw Jennifer Douglas waiting for him, realizing he hadn’t just missed that important business banquet but also forgotten Jennifer was waiting for him.
Jennifer, when she saw him, didn’t complain about anything, just silently turned to leave.
He quickly caught up to her and embraced her. "Where are you going?"
Jennifer struggled in his arms, "Back to New York!!"
He gestured, and the driver Old Albert brought the car over.
