Anya immediately started to panic when she heard Jeremy asked Corinne to talk in private. She turnedaround and looked tearfully at him, “Jeremy, where are you going with Corinne?”

Jeremy threw her a glance and said, “Go in and watch over Joey for a minute. I promise I’ll settle thismatter with Corinne as soon as possible.”

‘Does he mean that he’s going to make Corinne pay for what she did? I mean, of course, he would. Ididn’t put up all that act for nothing. He must have believed my story over Corinne’s and is now itchingto punish her!’ thought Anya.

Thinking of this, Anya nodded her head docilely and said, “Okay. I’ll go tend to Joey first and wait foryou to come back.”

Jeremy did not say anything to Anya after that. Instead, he looked coldly at Corinne and barked out anorder, “You, come with me!”

Corinne did not want to talk to him but knew with Jeremy’s character, he would not stop until he got tothe bottom of who did that to his son. Therefore, she had no choice but to cooperate

with him.

After thinking it through, she simply nodded and followed him out when suddenly Jason grabbed herarm and said, “Jeremy, where are you taking her? Corinne will never do something like that. She willnever hurt a kid.”

Jeremy narrowed his eyes and gone was the politeness he usually reserved for his friends.

“You sound as if you know her very well.”

Jason smiled kindly at him and said, “I’ve known her for quite a while so I’m pretty sure she’s not thetype who would do something like this. Though I do wonder why you don’t seem to know her as well asme when you know her longer than me.”

Jeremy scoffed. “You’re sure? Based on what? Your gut feeling? Or is it because love has blind you tothe type of person she is?”

Jason’s eyes

darkened but he still kept the kind smile on his lips. “Jeremy, can we at least talk nicely about this?”

“Forget it, Mister Jason, it’s okay. I can settle this myself,” interjected Corinne.

She did not want to see the two of them fighting over whether she was the type of person who wouldgo around hurting a kid. Those who did not know might even think she was some kind of Helen of Troy,causing two friends who knew each other for years to turn into enemies because of her.

Jason frowned and said worryingly, “Corinne, you don’t have to!”

“It’s fine.” Corinne waved her hand nonchalantly and immediately followed Jeremy out to the hospitalcorridor.

After reaching the end of the corridor, Jeremy entered the stairwell. Corinne did not even hesitate asshe pushed the door and entered after him too.

“Ask whatever you want, Mister Jeremy, but I must tell you, my answer is going to be the same nomatter what you ask. I didn’t do anything to Joey and you can report me to the police if you don’tbelieve me. Besides, it’s not like I haven’t seen the inside of a police station after someone wronglyaccused me of doing something I didn’t do!” said Corinne as soon as she

entered the stairwell.

Jeremy did not say anything Instead, he leaned casually against the wall and slowly lit up at stick ofcigarette. After taking a puff, he fished out a rectangle box and threw it at her. “Put this on your handfirst.”

‘What?’ Corinne instinctively reached out her hand to catch the item flying toward her. She then openedher hand and saw it was an ointment to heal burn wounds. Shocked, her pupils. immediately shrank topinpoint size. ‘How did he know I burned my hand when I didn’t even tell anyone?
