Chapter 1298: Chapter 679: Extra Story: Wedding—The Rightest Choice 2

"Rachel, why does Daddy have so many photos of Aunt Becca on his computer?"

Alice Robinson remained silent, unsure how to answer.

"Mommy, why aren’t you saying anything?"

Alice took a deep breath, closed the laptop, and said, "Rachel, Mommy is a bit thirsty. Could you please get me a glass of water?"

"Okay."

Rachel jumped off the bed and obediently went to get Alice some water.

Alice leaned against the headboard, staring blankly at the white laptop.

She recalled last night... As soon as she entered the room, he closed the laptop. She thought he was working, but looking back now, he seemed to be staring blankly at the computer when she walked in.

It turns out he was looking at those photos last night.

It turns out his heart hasn’t let go of Becca as he claimed.

Alice took a deep breath to suppress the pain in her heart, just as her daughter came back with a cup of water. "Mommy."

"Thank you, dear."

Rachel climbed onto the bed, snuggling against Alice, "Mommy, I want to play Plants Vs Zombies..."

Alice nodded, "Okay, go play by yourself then!"

"Okay!"

Rachel happily opened the laptop and continued to download the Plants Vs Zombies app.

Alice took a sip of water and watched her daughter’s profile, which resembled his, and said, "Rachel."

"Hmm?" Rachel kept her eyes on the computer, not turning around.

"Don’t mention playing with Daddy’s computer to him, okay? Because it’s his work computer, and he doesn’t allow us to play games on it."

"Got it, Mommy."

"Good girl."

While her daughter was absorbed in the game world, Alice leaned against the headboard in despair, gradually losing her focus.

"Rachel, what have you been doing at home all day today?" Chester Robinson, after handing the car keys to the servant, picked up Rachel, who had been waiting by the side.

"Mommy was sleeping; I played by myself!"

Chester was puzzled, "Sleeping?"

"Yeah, Mommy was sleeping all afternoon."

Chester frowned, sleeping all afternoon? "Is Mommy not feeling well?"

"No, I just secretly went into the room to check on Mommy, and her forehead wasn’t hot."

Chester breathed a sigh of relief, carrying Rachel into the villa.

"Alice, Alice..."

A gentle voice called out in her sleep.

Alice woke from her dream, still sleepy, "...Chester."

Chester bent down to kiss her forehead, "Awake now?"

Alice leaned against the headboard, her voice still lazy from sleep, "When did you get back?"

"It’s seven o’clock now."

"Seven o’clock?"

Alice exclaimed, glancing at the clock on the wall, embarrassed, "It’s already evening."

Chester hugged Alice, resting his chin affectionately against her forehead, "Not feeling well?"

"Maybe it’s because of the trial marriage and everything these past few days. I’m a bit tired."

Chester tenderly held her tighter, "The wedding is being rushed; it’s been hard on you these past few days."

Alice shook her head with a light smile.

"Are you hungry? Shall we go down to eat?"

"Hmm, you go ahead. I’ll change and come down soon."

"I’ll wait for you."

Alice gently pushed him away, "No need, I’ll be quick."

"Shy?"

"No way." But as she said this, Alice’s face turned red.

Chester’s lips curled into a smile, "I’ve seen every part of you... I’ll wait for you."

"Hey..." Alice pinched Chester’s arm hard, "Go on, I don’t want to... go on and on later..." She said, and her face turned bright red.

Chester smiled and gave her a peck on the lips before getting up, "Alright, I’ll wait downstairs, come quickly."

"Okay."

Alice watched Chester leave with a smile, and it wasn’t until the door closed gently that the smile slowly faded from her face.

She concentrated and thought for a moment, then got off the bed.

In the bathroom, she washed her face with cold water.

Her cold hands caressed her face as she quietly looked at herself in the mirror.

Alice, you can’t care. Don’t care. Didn’t you promise to just live this life foolishly?

Even if he was thinking of Becca last night, so what? Are you going to question him and then have a fight, bringing it back to the stalemate it was before?

No...

This situation was something you should have expected when you chose this path. If you can’t bear it, why choose it?

Just smile, as if nothing happened, as if you don’t know anything. He only loves you, only loves you.

She flashed a bright smile at the mirror, changed clothes, and left the room.
