After planting a kiss on Rebecca Quentin’s face, Howard Geoffrey subsequently left. Rebecca Quentin turned around and watched the back of Howard Geoffrey as he departed, her gaze gradually dimming. Suddenly, she returned to the room, staring unblinkingly at the innocent and pure sleeping face of the child, as her eyes inexplicably reddened. At this moment, her phone rang with a text message. Rebecca Quentin took a deep breath to suppress her current emotions, then picked up the phone. The phone displayed a text message — Can I meet with you? At Aye Cafe where we last met. Rebecca Quentin was just about to reply when Andrew woke up crying from his sleep. Without having time to reply to the message, Rebecca Quentin picked up Andrew from the bed, gently soothing, "There, there, baby, don’t cry..." Feeding Andrew, changing his wet pants, playing with him for a while, and coaxing him to sleep... this whole ordeal took Rebecca Quentin a full two hours. ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ꜰʀᴏᴍ novel⸺fire.net Once the child was asleep, Rebecca Quentin picked up her phone again and replied to the message — Are you still there? I can come over now. Andrew usually can sleep for two or three hours, so she should have no problem going out for a bit. Besides, she would bring the baby monitor, so she could know if the baby woke up anytime. The key point is XX Cafe is quite close to here. Their conversation shouldn’t take long, so she could return quickly. Rebecca Quentin waited with her phone for a long time but still didn’t receive any reply, and finally, she decided to head to Aye Cafe. Bringing the baby monitor and locking the apartment door, Rebecca Quentin walked out of the apartment building on her own. It only took ten minutes by taxi to the cafe. After entering the cafe, Rebecca Quentin directly headed towards the direction where they last met, only to see a scene that made her stop in her tracks as she turned the corner. Yes, in her sight, sitting opposite Alice Robinson at this moment was Howard Geoffrey. There wasn’t even a coffee on Howard Geoffrey’s table, suggesting he must have just arrived... Seeing this scene, she immediately retreated to the corner, where a potted plant and a semi-transparent hollow glass wall easily concealed her. At this moment, Howard Geoffrey rested against the chair back, his gaze on Alice Robinson, with his consistently cool and handsome face revealing no emotions. Alice Robinson spoke first, "I know why you came to find me... What I want to tell you is that I indeed lied to Aunt today..." Saying this, Alice Robinson lowered her head with a bitter smile, "You should be clear about what the truth is, but I think probing into the past has no significance now... When I saw you today, I was very happy; I thought you really came to see me. But when I saw your mom bringing Rebecca Quentin in, I realized you weren’t here for me. You just needed to provide an explanation to Rebecca Quentin..." Howard Geoffrey, with a cigarette burning at his side, took a drag and coolly asked, "Why not just tell me directly?" Alice Robinson suddenly looked at Howard Geoffrey’s coldly handsome face, her voice choking, "What difference would it make if I told you?" Howard Geoffrey narrowed his dark eyes, scrutinizing Alice Robinson. Alice Robinson gently shook her head, "When I and Aunt went to your apartment that day and saw Rebecca Quentin wearing your pajamas, I knew I was already out... I, Alice Robinson, am not one to cling on and definitely not one to pity myself, so when I found out I was pregnant, I never thought of telling you because it’s over between us. I didn’t want to affect your life with Rebecca Quentin!" Howard Geoffrey’s brows slightly furrowed as if pondering, but he didn’t respond to Alice Robinson. Alice Robinson choked out, "I originally planned to keep my pregnancy hidden, but who would have thought that this morning I felt very uncomfortable in my stomach. I deliberately avoided my brother and went to another hospital. Yet, I was still accidentally seen by one of my brother’s colleagues..." After hearing what Alice Robinson said, Howard Geoffrey extinguished the cigarette butt, coolly asked, "How do you plan to handle it?" Alice Robinson gently exhaled, "I’ve already thought about it... I won’t create trouble for you. In a few days, when I feel better, I will go to the hospital to terminate the pregnancy." Though Alice Robinson suppressed it well, she couldn’t hide her sadness and loss. At this moment, Howard Geoffrey stood up without saying more to Alice Robinson. He buttoned up his suit and left straight away. Watching Howard Geoffrey’s car leave, only then did Rebecca Quentin walk out of the cafe.
