HONEY, Love Me One More Time novel Chapter 119

With mixed feelings, she nodded to Howard with a smile as a greeting.
Howard behaved gracefully and shook hands with her, saying, “Hi, Miss Hudson. I’m Howard, Rebecca’s boyfriend. I heard that you are her best friend. Nice to meet you.”
Estelle nodded and said, “Nice to meet you, too. Take a seat, please. Excuse me, Howard. May I have a word with Rebecca first?”
“Sure,” Howard nodded and said without hesitation. 
Estelle then quickly pulled Rebecca to the bathroom and closed the door.
“What’s wrong, Estelle? Why don’t we talk in the ward but in the bathroom?” Rebecca asked in confusion.
Estelle said in a low voice that only the two of them could hear, “When did you get together with Howard?”
“Ingemar invited me to a party a week ago, and Howard and I got to know each other at the party. Later, he chased me, and then we were together.”
Estelle couldn’t believe what she had heard. “So, you have known him for only a week?”
“Yes,” Rebecca said. “Estelle, I know what you want to say. Actually, Howard is just my nominal boyfriend. My parents nagged me to get married as soon as possible every day. It’s so annoying. So I need a nominal boyfriend to stop them from urging me to get married.”
Estelle said disapprovingly, “But Howard... I hate to be blunt, but I don’t think Howard is a good choice. Since you just need a nominal boyfriend, why don’t you choose among your other male friends?”
Speaking of this, Rebecca felt helpless and said, “My parents know all my male friends and their parents. If I choose any one of my male friends, our parents will contact each other at once and talk about when we will get married. Alas, to be honest, when I see the relationship between you and Cristofer comes to this, I don’t believe that there’s true love in the world anymore. You two loved each other so much back then, but now the story of you two ends up with such a bad ending. I suddenly feel that being single all my life is also good.”
Hearing this, Estelle didn’t know what to say. She was indeed a negative example of love.
“But Rebecca, Howard...” 
When Estelle still wanted to say something, Rebecca interrupted her and said, “Don’t worry. Howard and I have agreed that we are just nominal lovers. I chose him because he is a star. Many male stars usually won’t get married until they are forty or fifty. If my parents know that my boyfriend is a star, they won’t urge me to get married as soon as possible, and I will still be able to live a happy and carefree life. Oh, it’s great.”
“So, you have got over Justin?” Estelle asked.
Upon hearing this, Rebecca held her hand and said, “I’ve let go of the past. He is your Mr. Mysterious now, and I’ve also started a new life. Estelle, is a good man. I hope you can live a happy life with him. I brought Howard here today because I want you to know that I’ve got over Justin. I don’t want the past between me and Justin to affect you.”
“Rebecca, I...”
“Don’t think too much. Estelle, you deserve to live a happy life. And no matter what happens, I’ll always be with you.”
Without saying anything, Estelle bit her lower lip with mixed feelings and then sighed.
“What do you want to eat for lunch? I’ll buy it for you,” Rebecca asked. 
Estelle refused politely, “Are you going out to buy food for me with Howard? You’d better not do that. Don’t worry. I can take care of myself. Besides, the hospital is a public place. You two had better not stay here for too long, or paparazzi may photograph you two.”
Thinking that Estelle’s words made sense, Rebecca nodded and said, “You’re right Estelle. I’ll get you some hot water and then leave.”
“Okay.”
Rebecca then went out of the ward with the thermos bottle.
Howard was sitting in the corner, playing on the phone. Seeing Estelle come out of the bathroom, he smiled at her.
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
At this time, the door of the ward was pushed open.
‘Rebecca’s back so soon,’ Estelle thought.
However, when she turned around and saw the person at the door, she frowned immediately and asked, “What are you doing here?”
Without answering her, Cristofer stared at Howard with his sharp eyes. Then he sneered and said, “Estelle, it seems that you are very popular after you divorced me.”
Hearing this, Estelle knew that he had misunderstood her relationship with Howard, so she said, “He is...”
“I know who he is,” Cristofer coldly said as he walked toward Howard.
“Mr. Evans, are you here to visit Estelle?” he asked, reaching out his hand.
Howard was a little confused when he felt Cristofer's hostility toward him. But he still reached out and shook hands with Cristofer politely. “Yes, I...”
The next second, Cristofer punched him hard in the face.
Caught off guard and suddenly being punched by Cristofer, Howard staggered backwards and almost hit the cabinet behind him.
He didn’t expect that Cristofer would do such a thing to him. Covering his face with his hand in pain, he stared at Cristofer in astonishment and asked, “Mr. Hans, what are you doing?”
“Howard, Estelle is my wife. Stay away from her, or I won’t be gentle with you. I’m warning you,” Cristofer said in a cold voice.
Seeing this, Estelle immediately pulled his arms and said, “Cristofer, are you out of your mind? What are you doing?!”
“That’s also what I want to ask you!” Cristofer shouted, obviously on the verge of rage. “Estelle, I have no problem with you being together with Justin. But why are you with Howard now? Do you know what kind of person Howard is and how many ex-girlfriends he has?”
Estelle frowned and felt annoyed, saying, “Cristofer, we have divorced!”
Cristofer smiled bitterly and said, “Estelle, I regret it.”
“Do you regret it? So what? You mean I should be thankful for it and return it to you?” Estelle shook her head helplessly and said.
“Estelle, don’t be angry. I thought it over for a long time last night. We’ve been together for so many years and have had two children. We should be together. Besides, you are not in good health now. It’s hard for you to take care of Yvonne alone. And it’s not appropriate to let another man take care of Yohan. I will bring him back, and then we will be reunited.”
