Billionaire's Regret: Losing Me And Our Son - Chapter 139: Chapter 139

Quinn said, "Who knows? It might be that. Without any real evidence, I can't say for sure."
It was terrifying to think about it. These members of the Madden family were so scheming. It was simply impossible to guard against them.
I simply couldn't imagine how Quinn managed to grow up in such a family.
Since the old days, there had been disputes among members of every wealthy family. The Madden family was no different.
Joseph even harmed his sister, let alone Quinn who was his nephew.
Just as I was distracted thinking about this, I suddenly heard Quinn's voice. " Actually, it's not a bad thing for Lindsey to study abroad since she was young."
"Why do you say that?" I asked curiously.
"If Lindsey grew up here with Joseph and Tina, what do you think she would become?" Quinn asked.
I was stunned for a while before I understood what Quinn.
At that moment, the car stopped steadily in front of the villa.
Before I could ask again, Quinn quickly got out of the car and had already taken out the blanket. Then he put it over Benedict who was fast asleep.
The nanny was waiting outside the car. She skillfully carried Benedict and brought him into the villa.
Quinn opened the door for me and led me out of the car. "This is our home, not the old mansion. You can relax completely."
I smiled and didn't say anything else. I let him pull me back to the house.
We started the Dazzling Project officially on Friday.
I went to the company early in the morning to confirm the relevant details so that there were no slip-ups during the opening ceremony.
"Raelynn, have you printed the speech needed for the commencement ceremony?" I looked up at her.
However, I was surprised to see that Raelynn was in a daze. She was distracted.
I got up and walked over. I asked Raelynn with concern, "What are you thinking about? You seem to be in a daze. Have you been too tired from preparing for the Dazzling Project?"
"No, of course not." Raelynn shook her head repeatedly. She said apologetically, "Ms. Hinton, I'm sorry, I was distracted just now."
"It's fine. If you're tired, I'll give you two days off after the commencement ceremony." I deliberately teased her. "It'll also give you and Mr. Bird more time to date."
When I got married, Raelynn was my bridesmaid, and Jess was Quinn's best man.
The two of them had been secretly flirting with each other. I wondered if they had started dating.
It was normal for me to tease Raelynn now and then.
Unexpectedly, Raelynn Novak didn't answer me today. There was something wrong with her expression.
"Ms. Hinton, what did you want me to prepare just now?" Raelynn changed the topic stiffly.
"The speech for the commencement ceremony."
Raelynn nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry, the speech has been printed."
I had wanted to continue talking to Raelynn when her phone rang.
"Ms. Hinton, it's the driver. We should move over." Raelynn reminded me.
"Okay, got it."
Half an hour later, Raelynn and I arrived at the site of the commencement ceremony for the Dazzling Project.
The commencement ceremony proceeded smoothly, and the effect was better than expected.
The publicity team cooperated and shot pictures of several memorable moments. The Dazzling Project had great significance. Our hard work and preparation did not go to waste.
After everyone took photos together as mementos, the commencement ceremony came to an end.
"Ms. Hinton, you've worked hard. The venue of the commencement ceremony is on the trending searches today."
"You're welcome. Everyone has worked hard. I'll treat everyone to afternoon tea later. Don't stand on ceremony."
I exchanged a few pleasantries with the other party before leaving.
As I walked towards the parking lot, I saw Raelynn and Jess.
They were indeed dating and had to see each other every day.
While I was teasing secretly, I suddenly heard an argument.
Jess said coldly, "Have you really made a decision? Why do you have to be so stubborn?"
"I'm not being stubborn. If you cherish our relationship, you should put yourself in my shoes," Raelynn retorted.
Jess frowned and changed his usual gentlemanly demeanor. He said angrily, "Do you think I don't consider your feelings? Raelynn, it's because I care about you too much that I made such a request. But I didn't expect you to..."
He looked at Raelynn with anger. "Forget it, let's calm down." Without waiting for Raelynn to reply, Jess turned around and left.
I stood rooted to the ground. I didn't know what they were arguing about.
I wondered what Jess suggested to Raelynn. I thought the two of them were very close. It was a very heated argument.
Raelynn, who was rooted to the ground, messed up her hair and sat on the bench beside the parking lot dejectedly.
I couldn't bear to see Raelynn like that. I bought two cups of coffee from the vending machine and approached Raelynn.
"Here, your coffee." I handed it over.
Raelynn looked up in surprise and said with red eyes, "Ms. Hinton, how did you..."
"It is already after work hours. Don't need to call me Ms. Hinton."
"What's going on between you and Jess? If you don't feel like saying it, pretend I didn't ask."
"So you saw everything?" Raelynn forced a bitter smile. When she took the coffee from me, she lowered her eyes and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
"I bumped into you by accident," I quickly explained. "I had no intention of eavesdropping."
Raelynn shook her head. "It's okay, I know you well. I told Jess I wanted to break up with him."
"What? You want to break up with Jess?" I thought I was hearing things.
Amidst my shock, I asked, "Didn't you and Jess just start dating? This is too sudden. Can't you talk things over with him?"
"Actually, he and I have been together for a long time. It's been more than a month since we've officially confirmed our relationship," Raelynn said truthfully.
I almost dropped my jaw in shock.
No wonder the two of them were so clingy at the wedding. They had already confirmed their relationship.
"My relationship with Jess is very stable, and we get along very well."
"Then why do you still want to break up?" I asked.
Raelynn gripped the cup of coffee in her hand tightly. After a few seconds of silence, she said, "Jess proposed to me previously. I was very touched at that time, so I said yes."
What Raelynn told me was a little too much for me to digest.
Jess was so quick to propose after officially confirming their relationship for just more than a month.
"It sounds funny but Jess even wants us to register our marriage this year." When Raelynn said this, the expression on her face was filled with anticipation.
"Then what exactly happened?" I took out a tissue to wipe the tears from Raelynn's eyes.
It was obvious that Raelynn cherished her relationship with Jess.
"Just now, I happened to hear Jess say that he suggested something to you. Is that the reason for your argument?" I asked.
Raelynn nodded. "A few days ago, Jess suddenly suggested to me that I resign. After registering our marriage, I should stay at home and be a full-time housewife."
