By the time Jeremy turned around, Corinne and the others were already nowhere to be seen in thehospital corridor.

‘Was it my imagination? I could’ve sworn I heard a little rascal’s voice just now,’ thought

Jeremy.

Anya came back with the medicine. “Jeremy, I got the medicine for the baby. We can go back. now.”

–

Jeremy nodded. The toddler with his head resting over Jeremy’s shoulder

off and the three of them walked over to the elevator.

already dozed

Anya was glowing with pride and happiness when she realized all the passers-by were looking at herwith admiring eyes. She tilted her head to look at the handsome man with her child in

his arms.

‘I can’t believe I’m finally living my dream life. From this moment onward, Jeremy, me, and our baby aregoing to live happily ever after.’

Corinne, Xante, and Aaron were back in the minivan.

While driving, Xante took a glance at Corinne from the rearview mirror. “Boss, where to now? ” sheasked cautiously.

“Take me back to Holden’s estate,” said Corinne lightly.

Aaron frowned. He turned around and asked in a frustrated tone, “Why are you still going back therewhen Mister Jeremy betrayed you like that?”

Corinne squinted her eyes as she calmly looked at the passing scenery outside the window. The time isnot up yet. Our agreement states that we have to stay together for three months. and today is the lastday so I need to stay in the Holden’s estate until midnight for it to count. I must uphold my end of thedeal.”

Although Aaron admired Corinne’s rigor, he could not but feel helpless as well. “Boss, are you okay?”

Both Xante and Aaron could tell Corinne fell for Jeremy. They never saw the kind of tenderness onCorinne’s face when she found out she was pregnant.

Corinne smiled and replied softly, “There are plenty more fish in the sea and this too shall pass.”

“What are you going to do about the baby growing inside your tummy?”

“Whatever will be, will be. Besides, Jeremy has good genes and I got his sperm for free. I’ll just

treat it like I went to the sperm bank to have a baby on my own.” She then closed her eyes

from exhaustion and added, “I’m going to nap for a while. Wake me up when we’ve reached the place.”

Xante and Aaron looked at each other helplessly and said nothing.

Corinne leaned lazily against the backseat, but she failed to fall asleep. She would be lying if she saidshe was not sad. Jeremy was nothing but kind, gentle, and accepting to her as of late. She liked howmeticulously he took care of her and listened to her.

Her fate was one of hardships from the very start. Therefore, she was cared for so lovingly so muchthat she had the illusion that Jeremy was different from any other man and that she could depend onhim.

This made her want to open her heart to him to the extent that she even began to seriously considerwhether to spend the rest of her life with him. In the end, she realized it was nothing

but a lie.

She, just like any other woman, fell for the oldest trick in the world.

‘Oh well. I guess I’ve learned my lesson,’ She would only admit how sad she was to herself but thelevel of sadness was not enough for her to have a breakdown.

All she felt was a little pain in her chest. ‘This is nothing compared to all the hurt I lived through in thepast. It’ll pass soon, Corinne. All pain does,’ she told herself.

Bowen immediately greeted Corinne when he saw her come back.

“Hello, ma’am. Have you had lunch?”

Corinne changed into her indoor slippers and walked into the foyer. “Not yet, Bowen. Can you ask thekitchen to make something light and refreshing for me?”

“Certainly, ma’am. I’ll have the maid deliver the food to your room once it’s ready,” replied Bowen.
