Chapter 1278: Chapter 669: Extra: Only to Propose to You

Rebecca Quentin ordered a cup of coffee, but Alice Robinson didn’t.

Seeing that Alice Robinson didn’t look well, Rebecca Quentin asked with concern, "Alice, what’s wrong? Why did you come alone? Did you have a fight with Chester?" This was the only reason Rebecca Quentin could think of for Alice Robinson to come alone.

Alice Robinson looked calmly at Rebecca Quentin, not responding to her question, instead asking, "Why were you late just now?"

Rebecca Quentin mumbled, "It’s that little devil Andrew, he went to Howard Geoffrey’s study and doodled on some documents on the desk. I was afraid Howard would blame Andrew when he came back, so I called Lisa Cecily to send another set over..."

Alice Robinson stared directly at Rebecca Quentin’s beautiful face, smiling, "So it was for Andrew, I thought you were afraid to see me."

Rebecca Quentin laughed puzzled, "Alice, why would I be afraid to see you? You’ve come all this way to chat with me, I’m too happy for that."

"Really?"

Facing Alice Robinson who seemed to have strange words, Rebecca Quentin nodded seriously, "Of course it is true."

Alice Robinson suddenly let out a disdainful laugh.

Seeing Alice Robinson’s facial expression, Rebecca Quentin finally realized her unusual behavior and asked, puzzled, "Alice, what’s wrong?"

"Rebecca, are you still using Dior XX perfume?"

"Um, yes." Rebecca Quentin was a bit baffled, "Why?"

Alice Robinson, who couldn’t keep things to herself, felt that the smile on Rebecca Quentin’s face seemed especially insincere at the moment, so she directly said, "Chester went out last night, and when he came back, his shirt was covered with the scent of this perfume. You weren’t home last night either, right?"

Rebecca Quentin didn’t initially understand the underlying meaning of Alice Robinson’s words, and when she realized, she frowned and asked, "Alice, what do you mean by that?"

Alice Robinson sighed and said, "Rebecca, I’m not as good as you in anything, not as beautiful, nor as kind. In everyone’s eyes, you are like a goddess, and I have many flaws. So if you were single right now and Chester chose you over me, I would admit defeat. But you are already very happy, and the whole world knows Howard Geoffrey loves you. I believe you love Howard deeply too. So why are you getting tangled with Chester again?"

"Wait, Alice, you have misunderstood something. I am not tangled up with Chester, I..."

Alice Robinson interrupted Rebecca Quentin, "You don’t need to deny it... Last night you went out behind Howard’s back, and Chester also went out behind my back, you met him last night."

"No, Alice, I didn’t meet Chester last night. I had an appointment with my friend Isabella, who rarely comes to New York..."

Facing Rebecca Quentin’s earnest explanation, Alice Robinson, however, indifferently said, "I know you’re not interested in Chester, the person you’ve always loved is only Howard, but Rebecca, I want you to understand, I really dislike you meeting or contacting Chester, whether it’s as friends or as relatives, I don’t like it... Do you know why I rushed out of Geoffrey’s house yesterday?"

Rebecca Quentin shook her head blankly.

Alice Robinson said with a lump in her throat, "Because when I went to the airport to pick up Chester yesterday, I saw you chatting and laughing with him in the car... I know there might be nothing between you, but I hope you won’t be in contact with him, okay? Please don’t arrange to meet him for any reason in the future, okay?"

Rebecca Quentin shook her head vigorously, "Alice, you must be misunderstanding my relationship with Chester... We didn’t meet last night, I’ve never arranged to meet him under any pretenses."

Alice Robinson sniffed, stood up coldly, and said lightly, "I’m sorry if what I just said was too harsh, I just wanted you to know that I really care about Chester, and Chester used to love you with all his life, I’m very afraid that you’ll get too close to him, because it makes me jealous."

Rebecca Quentin stood up and walked to Alice Robinson, holding her arm, "I can swear to the heavens, Chester and I have always been just friends."

Alice Robinson coldly removed Rebecca Quentin’s hand, "If it’s really just a friendship, you wouldn’t have met him alone last night."

"Alice, Chester and I really didn’t meet last night..."

Alice Robinson looked sadly at Rebecca Quentin, "I know it wasn’t you going to see him, it was him wanting to see you..."
