Initially, Corinne wanted to say goodbye to Mother Cathrina as well. Fearing she would interrupt her spiritual solemn moment, however, she decided to leave silently.As soon as she walked out of the convent, she saw Tommy standing by the car talking on the phone. "Yes, Mister Jeremy. I understand, Mister Jeremy. I'll make sure Miss Corinne is safe at all costs."Corinne frowned. 'Looks like Tommy has told Mister where I am. But why didn't he call or text me?'She was finding it harder not to think that Jeremy did not care about her at all. Moreover, the Jeremy she knew was a man who was quick to be jealous, so how could he not spam her with calls the second he knew she was with Jason?'Maybe it's true what Mother Cathrina says; all men will eventually get sick of their wives. The only reason he's asking Tommy to protect me is not because of me but the baby I'm carrying,' thought Corinne.She silently got into the car.Jason immediately came rushing out of the convent and followed

Jason moved his face closer to hers. "I already have enough money for my future wife to live comfortably with, so what I lack now is a wife. Say, why don't you help me find one, Corinne?"Corinne frowned with disgust. She was about to leave her alone when the car door on the driver's side opened, and Tommy sat down with a serious expression."Ahem!" he cleared his throat loudly.Jason sat back in his seat without any signs of embarrassment."Mister Jason, where should I drop you off?" asked Tommy with a frown."You can drop me off at whichever homestay Corinne is staying in. It'll be more convenient to take care of each other that way," said Jason with a straight face."I'm sorry, Mister Jason, but Miss Corinne is staying with the Riveras at their summer villa. I don't think it'll be possible for you to follow along," said Tommy.Jason raised his eyebrow. "She's staying at the Riveras' simmer villa? Why, that's even better! I can just call Lucas to ask him to let me stay too."

After all, Jeremy did not seem to be as put off as he did with Jason when Corinne hung out with Zeke or Gerald alone."Why do you say that? Isn't Mister Jason an old friend of Jeremy's? As his wife, shouldn't I at least act polite to him?" she asked.Tommy looked at her complicatedly. "Mister Jason is an old friend of Mister Jeremy, but I wouldn't call them close. Mister Jason is actually closer to Mister Lucas, while Mister Zeke and Mister Gerald are close to Mister Jeremy."Mister Zeke and Mister Gerald would never do anything that would harm Mister Jeremy nor would they overstep their boundaries when it comes to you, Ma'am. However, the same can't be said about Mister Jason."Not only is he Mister Jeremy's business competitor, but he has, more than once, tried to steal you from him. I don't think he's going to stop until he gets what he wants."Corinne chuckled softly. "So guys form cliques and have drama between themselves too. Hahaha! But don't worry, Tommy, I have no interes

Corinne recognized that voice. It was the same woman who picked up Jeremy's phone when Francine called him last time.She felt her heart inexplicably aching.She did not ask him who the woman was as she trusted he would explain everything to her without needing to prompt him. To her surprise, he did no such thing.Instead, he quickly said, "Hey, I gotta go now. Be a good girl and go to bed early, okay?"Corinne did not even have a chance to ask what was happening when Jeremy hung up on her. She listened as the disconnected tone floated into her ear.'Who is that woman? Why didn't he explain himself?' she asked herself.She threw her phone aside and climbed into her bed. Feeling sad and insecure, she hugged her pillow tightly and curled herself into a ball.She spent almost every night in this way when she was a child. After she grew up and gained the ability to protect herself, she no longer slept in this position.However, at that moment, the sense of insecurity from childhood

Jeremy stroked Corinne's head lovingly. "Good girl. You did the right thing."Corinne was not used to him treating her like this since they had not seen each other for many days.Corinne frowned and looked straight into his eyes. "Mister, when did you get back? Why did you come here?"Jeremy rested his chin on her forehead and huskily spoke, "I took the flight back home last night. And why did I come here, you ask? Well, I wouldn't need to if you had just listened to me and stayed home instead of coming here. I can't help but think you're doing this to avoid seeing me."His warm breath tickled her face as he spoke, causing her to blush. "So is this your way of giving me a surprise?" she asked a little unhappily."I guess you can say that," said Jeremy.Corinne frowned. "I appreciate your thought, but I've told you that I don't like surprises! Next time, please let me know in advance when you're coming back."It was true. Corinne did not like surprises, having to guess, or the un

Jeremy bit Corinne's ear roughly."Stop moving! Who says you're going to get a headache by sleeping too much? Just lie here. I'll make you so comfortable that you'd think you're in heaven!"It was obvious what Jeremy meant, and Corinne could not help but blush. Nonetheless, she shoved him away angrily. "Hmph! It doesn't sound like you're as tired as you're making yourself out to be since you still have the energy to say all this nonsense!"She quickly slipped out of the bed and put some distance between them to prevent Jeremy from pulling her back.However, she realized something was not quite right the next second. Not only did Jeremy not pull her back, but he did not seem upset about what she did either.Instead, he lied down on his side, propped up his face with one hand, and stared at her with a taunting smirk.Corinne frowned, not understanding why he was looking at her like that until she felt the coldness creeping up on her skin. It was only then she remembered she was nak

However, if she were to ask Jeremy first, Corinne would not be happy with any answer she got from him. She would think he was hiding things from her or that he did not care about her since he obviously thought there was no need to explain himself.Even though Jeremy was clingy to her as though she was his lifeline, she did not feel touched at all. 'All men only have one thing on their minds!' she thought. She was really not in the mood to give him what he wanted. In fact, until he told her who the woman on the phone was first, she was not going to let him touch her!After brushing her teeth, she bent down to wash her face. During all these, Jeremy would sometimes loosen his grip to allow her to move more easily, but he never once let her go completely.After she finished washing her face, Corinne straightened herself up to reach for her towel, but it was not there. Jeremy had taken it from the railing. He turned her around and lovingly wiped away the water dripping down her face.S

Seeing that Corinne was really unwilling to kiss him, Jeremy simply sighed and said, "Okay. I won't force you if you don't want to do it."True to his words, he let her go.Corinne did not let her guard down. "Why are you still standing here, then?" she asked with a single eyebrow raised. "Go on. Get out."Jeremy tapped her on the nose. "I should be the one saying that to you. You've finished washing up, right? So it's now my turn. Of course, I won't mind if you choose to stay in here with me."After that, he started unbuttoning his shirt, revealing his sexy collarbone.Seeing this, Corinne quickly slipped out of the bathroom as she knew Jeremy would get frisky if she did not do so.'Oh my god. The way she still blushes whenever she sees my body even though she's already pregnant with my kid is so cute!' thought Jeremy with a smile as he looked at her running out of the bathroom.Corinne made sure to shut the door after her to make it clear to Jeremy that under no circumstances

Sherman could not help but feel fearful when he recalled the incident.Rita gently smoothed his furrowed brow. "I knew you'd come to rescue me, just like all the times you did. I love you, Sherman."Previously, Rita confessed her love to him when she was groggy. At this moment, however, she was clearly awake, even sporting a faint smile on her face as she confessed.Sherman immediately blushed. "I love you, too."Rita did not stay long in the hospital; she quickly returned to the Parr family's mansion. Just as Sherman's grandparents had said, Rita did not have any major injuries, so there was no need for her to stay in the hospital that long. In fact, she might even recover faster emotionally under the care at home.Not once did Sherman bring up Rita's job, but she surprisingly resigned from New Capital Times on her own accord. It would be difficult for her to investigate cases with her current condition; not to mention Sherman had handed over the evidence to the police. The polic

"Sherman, I like you. I love you," Rita finally confessed.Sherman, deeply pained, pulled Rita into his arms. "This is all my fault. I should've looked for you quicker. I've never blamed you. All I want is to see you smile. It's enough for me as long as you're willing to let me stay by your side."You don't have to confess to me. I know it's hard for you to do that because of your family. I've seen the way they've treated you, and…"The bodyguards who had barged in with Sherman felt a bit awkward to see their company president in tears. However, the priority was to get Rita to the hospital for a check-up. Being tied up for hours could cause circulation issues, and it could be dangerous if her limbs did not regain feelings soon.In the end, they got the bravest among them to convince Sherman to let them take Rita to the hospital. Instead of letting them do it, Sherman wiped away his tears and, with ease, lifted Rita as if she was as light as a feather.Fortunately, after the hospit

With that, Karen left without looking back. She was carrying Vince's baby in her womb, so how could she pin all her hopes on Sadie? Since Sadie was obviously unruly, she would have to rely on her son.'Sadie can spend the rest of her life with Esmond since she likes him so much. God knows it had been exhausting enough to raise her. Plus, it's only fair for Esmond to take care of her since I've done my part taking care of her until now,' thought Karen.Meanwhile, the only consolation for Sherman was that Esmond did not try to put up a fight. It seemed that he still cared about his daughter Sadie.Sherman led his men to a dilapidated house. Esmond had been cautious enough to choose a rundown house situated at the end of a village.When Sherman barged in, he found Rita lying on the floor while Esmond's men ignored her. Esmond's men had followed his orders, and since he did not instruct them to do anything to Rita, they left her well alone.Before the men could react, they were surrou

Karen cried and silently knelt by Sadie's side without trying to defend herself. Sadie, on the other hand, feebly tried to explain herself. Alas. Vince refused to listen.There had been many occasions before when he had chosen to believe Karen and Sadie, but at this moment, he realized he had been terribly wrong to do that.Rita used to be so kind, understanding, and well-behaved. However, ever since Karen and Sadie moved in, Vince felt like his daughter had become manipulative, always trying to compete for attention, and stirring up jealousy in front of him.Unfortunately, it took Rita's disappearance to make Vince realize that Rita was not trying to compete for attention. All Rita wanted from him was to treat her the same as Sadie.Vince used to think that Rita should give in to Sadie more since Sadie was younger, too."Why don't you go live with your biological father since you prefer him so much? I never want to see you show your face around here anymore! As for your mother, s

Sadie was so anxious that she wanted to jump out. "Mom, don't tell me you fell for it! Why did you call Esmond? Now they all know where Rita is. You've ruined everything, again! What were you thinking?"Karen could not care less. She cried and slapped Sadie. "You nearly scared me to death! What would I do if something happened to you? I didn't raise you just to watch you die. I told you not to meet up with Esmond, so why did you secretly meet up with him? How can you ask him to get rid of Rita?"Are you out of your mind? All I want is for us to live out the rest of our lives peacefully, so why didn't you listen to me?!"Sadie was furious. Karen had stopped trying to get rid of Rita ever since she got pregnant, so how could Sadie not be angry? Rita was like a thorn in her side, and Sadie would never be happy unless Rita was dead."Don't you know I like Sherman? How could you ask me to do nothing when Rita has stolen him from me?! I was the one who liked him first. It's either Rita g

Karen wanted so badly to slap Esmond through the phone.'What good are his pompous words now? We wouldn't be in this mess now if he hadn't hit me back then! What's more, he's saying he's doing this for Sadie. But has he ever thought of what would happen to me and Sadie if he got rid of Rita? Rita's the heiress of the Russell family. Not to mention, she's married to Sherman, so that makes her owner of Parr Group too! What makes Esmond think he can get rid of Rita so easily?'Karen's breath was ragged as she said, "If you don't believe me, just listen to your daughter's screams. I can't save her now; you will literally decide her fate! Plus, I'm pregnant with Vince's baby, so even if I lose Sadie, I still have a kid—which is more than what I can say about you!"Sherman could not help but be impressed by Karen a little. Even in this dire situation, she did not forget to express her heartfelt feelings to Vince, letting him know that she was always on his side. It was certainly not an ea

"Sherman raised an eyebrow. "Don't worry, I'm sure it's just a minor injury, maybe just a finger. There shouldn't be any major issues. A sprained joint takes only a hundred days to heal, and it might take her even less time to heal if you take very good care of her while she's recuperating."Karen's heart ached upon hearing that. She lunged toward Sherman, wanting to hit him, but the bodyguards stopped her before she could get close.Vince, still worried, held Karen tightly beside him. "Calm down. I'm sure Sadie will come out unharmed if Rita's kidnapping has nothing to do with her. But if it does, then you should know very well that…"Vince's voice dropped an octave. He could not believe his daughter's disappearance had anything to do with his stepdaughter. However, he was not utterly naive.He continued, "How could a girl like her take Rita away? Even the car window was smashed. Others must've been involved. Does her biological father have anything to do with it?"Sherman nodded

"Yes, it's true I met up with my biological father, but it was just a one-time thing. I don't want to go back to him at all! Otherwise, I would've done it ages ago. Dad, I'm really grateful to you for taking me in and looking after me all these years. That's why I feel like you're my real father, even more real than those who share the same blood."How could you unjustly accuse me and Mom like that? Sherman is the one spouting nonsense here. He's trying to push all the blame onto us. Dad, you have to wake up and see the truth!"Karen nodded along, but her heart was racing. 'When did Sadie meet Esmond? How did Sherman know when I don't even know? Seems like Sadie does have something to do with Rita's kidnapping. I have to settle things and get Sherman out of here.'Karen never had the thought of rekindling her relationship with Esmond. The only thing she wanted then was to peacefully give birth to her son. Everything in the Russell family would eventually go to her son, and she would

Sherman detested people pointing their fingers at him when they spoke. He stood up slowly, towering over Vince instantly."You claim to be Rita's father, yet if I were you, I'd choose to shut up and stand aside. I can't believe you're scolding me for threatening Sadie when she's not even your real daughter!"Look at her guilty expression; it's clear she's involved. If you don't believe me, use your brain a little. No wonder Russell Group is declining under your leadership. It's only a matter of time before the company goes completely bankrupt!"Sherman showed no mercy, causing Vince to retreat with every word. Vince clutched his chest, struggling for breath.Karen, despite her weakness, stepped forward to support him. "How could you speak to your father-in-law like this? What has Sadie done to offend you? She has nothing but admiration for you. Plus, she's just a child. How could you treat her like this?"She went on and on, but Sherman stood his ground. Meanwhile, the burly bodyg
