Before this, Corinne never answered the question so straightforwardly nor did she ever call
him first.
Jeremy chuckled. “I’ll be back in a few days. There’s still some work left for me to do here. Be at goodgirl and wait for me to come back, okay?”
“Okay,” Corinne replied coldly.
Jeremy quickly hung up the phone after that because the toddler in his arms was starting to cry for hismommy.
Corinne’s eyes lost their sparkles when she heard how busy Jeremy sounded on the phone. She thenlaughed at herself. ‘How could I be so stupid?”
She always thought she was a very rational girl, unlike those girls whose existence was all aboutreplaceing their soulmates. She was never the one who fell blindly in love or trusted men. However, thefact of the matter was she was human after all.
Corinne never once doubted Jeremy, not even when Anya showed her the cesarean scar on herabdomen and told her she had a kid with Jeremy. She thought Anya was just lying, wanting to drive awedge between her and Jeremy.
‘And here I thought Mister was the responsible kind who will never abandon his kid, but he lied to mejust now. He’s standing right there and yet he told me he’s still abroad,’ she thought.
She could not help but think that in the half-month that he was gone, he was in the city all along to takecare of Anya and their kid. ‘Is there a need to lie to me like that? If he wants to be with her then he
should tell me! It’s not like I’ll stop him from doing that.”
Corinne understood very well her relationship with Jeremy was just a facade so she had no rightwhatsoever to interfere in his life. She would not have held out any hope to be with him if he did notsuddenly tell her he wanted to start over with her.
She also knew that Jeremy only married her because he was forced to do so by his elders, who wereworried that he would not be able to extricate himself from Anya if their relationship were to continue.The elders, they could not stand for that to happen because of the bad blood between the two families.
Seeing Jeremy with his kid made Corinne realize that he never stopped loving Anya at all. “The reasonhe treated Anya so coldly and indifferently before must be to trick his elders into believing he did nothave feelings for her anymore.’
Corinne mentally berated herself for falling for one of his tricks. ‘I was nothing but a tool for him to gethis elders off his back. He tricked me into falling in love with him so that I’ll be more convincing as hiswife. He’s worse than the devil. Has he no shame?’
The people around them started to whisper amongst themselves.
“Look at that man with his kid! He’s so handsome!”
“Oh my, you’re right. I just saw his wife walking past just now and she’s quite the looker as well. Shemust have gone to the dispensary to get some medicine.”
“Their kid is so cute! What a beautiful family they are.’
“Well, I’m not surprised. With parents like them, of course, the kid will turn out good-looking as well.”
Corinne heard everything. She looked down and took a deep breath.
Aaron gritted his teeth and could not hold it back any longer. “Boss, don’t be sad. I’m going to beat upthat b*stard for you right away!”
Corinne waved her hand and said lightly, “There’s no need to do that. Let’s just go.”
“But that sc*mbag!” Aaron cracked his knuckles angrily.
Xante dragged him away and said, “Calm down. Don’t make it any worse for the boss.”
At that moment, Jeremy must have sensed something for he suddenly turned around with the kid still inhis arms.
