Chapter 1584

Author: Cher the Cherished
Bryan was keenly aware of the change of expression in Jeremy's face. He blinked innocently and asked, "Daddy, what's wrong? What are you thinking about?"

Jeremy came back to his senses and shook his head. "Nothing's wrong. Go wash yourself, and get ready for bed."

"Okay!" said Bryan with a nod. He then obediently walked to the bathroom, but his eyes suddenly widened in shock after he opened the door.

Seeing this, Jeremy immediately became vigilant. He steered his wheelchair to see what he saw.

He, too, was stunned when he saw Corinne in the bathroom. She was sitting on the toilet with her hand on her chin, looking unhappy.

Jeremy quickly turned to check whether he had closed the bedroom door properly before going into the bathroom with Bryan, closing the door.

"You shouldn't be here at this hour," said Jeremy.

However, Corinne did not take his words seriously. With her chin still in her hand, she frowned slightly and asked him, "Did you see the message I sent you?"

    'So what if I accidentally took a photo with the person I was eating with?' thought Corinne. The more she thought about it, the angrier she got."So you thought I was on a date with another man? That's why you didn't reply? You were hoping that I'd end up developing a love relationship with that man when you didn't reply?" asked Corinne.Jeremy was silent for a few seconds before answering, "Yes. Since I'm disabled, I hope you can pursue a relationship with another man."Corinne grimaced. She glared at him and shouted, "Jeremy Holden, I swear you're going to be the death of me someday! Oh, I must be cursed in this life to meet a man like you!"Jeremy's chest tightened when he heard her call him 'Jeremy Holden', and a sense of familiarity came over him."Sorry that I couldn't make you happy."Corinne wrapped her hands around Jeremy's throat and squeezed it a little. "I should just strangle you to the death right now!"Jeremy closed his eyes and let her do whatever she wanted.Co

    Corinne smirked, raised an eyebrow, and asked sarcastically, "What do you mean?"Jeremy locked eyes with her and said, "I mean I'm willing to accept you."Corinne narrowed her eyes slightly. "The reason I can accept you as you are right now is because I remember how you used to be and what happened between us, or more accurately, the feelings between us. The question is, why are you willing to accept me? You don't remember anything about me. Do you make it a habit of accepting a woman whom you've just met?"Jeremy's gaze never once wavered as he said cheekily, "Can my reason be the same as yours?""What do you mean?" asked Corinne quizzically.Jeremy raised his chin slightly, "I also think you're very good-looking. You're so beautiful that I can't possibly turn you down."Corinne's pupils shrank slightly. She then stared into his arrogant face, and…kissed him right on the lips.It was not a deep kiss. It was a mere press, a graze, just to feel each other's warmth.10 seconds la

    Corinne stopped and turned. "Yes? Do you want another goodbye kiss?"Jeremy steered his wheelchair closer to her. "No.""What is it, then? Come on, I don't have all day."Jeremy looked at her and asked, "Who was the man that you went to dinner with?"Corinne was stunned. She did not expect that he would stop her just to ask such a trivial question. "I had dinner with Aaron, Xante, Jason, and the kids. Apart from the kids, I don't think you remember any of the other three."Jeremy's gaze relaxed a little. "So it wasn't just you and the man in the photo?"Corinne nodded. "No! Did you really think I was on a date?"Jeremy did not answer her; that was exactly what he thought."Then who was the man in your photo?""Jason Talbot. You two used to be friends."Jeremy got a very bad vibe from the name alone. "Does he contact you often while I was missing in the past three years?"Corinne felt a little guilty. It was not that she had done anything wrong, but because it was inappropria

    Jeremy could not offer up a retort. 'I didn't disappear with another woman… I was kidnapped and brainwashed.'Corinne was about to leave. However, the moment she put her hand on the door handle, she heard a woman's voice coming from the other side of the door.Sophia entered the room and asked, "Benjamin, why are you standing at the bathroom door? Where's your daddy?""Uh… Daddy… Daddy's taking a bath!" said Bryan awkwardly."Then what are you doing standing at the door? You should be helping him! You know how hard it's for Daddy to get out of the bathtub by himself!" lectured Sophia.Bryan blinked and said, "Daddy said he didn't need my help and asked me to come out! I'm standing here because I want to get in quickly if Daddy calls for my help!"Sophia sensed something was off. She ignored Bryan and walked over to knock on the bathroom door. "Zachary, are you taking a bath?"Corinne had quietly hidden in the corner behind the bathroom door where she would not be seen by Sophia

    This time, Corinne opened the door and finally walked out. After leaving the bathroom, she leaned over and kissed her son. Finally, she flipped over the balcony.Jeremy slowly steered his wheelchair out of the bathroom. He looked thoughtfully toward the balcony, then turned his head to look at the new set of pajamas on the bed.Bryan tilted his head and said, "Daddy, Mommy seemed a little upset when she left, didn't she?"Jeremy could also tell Corinne was not really happy when she left, but he had no way to go out and chase her.He sighed and asked Bryan, "What does your Mommy usually do?"Bryan thought for a while before he replied, "Well... Mommy is usually busy with work, taking care of us kids, and looking for our Daddy."Jeremy's eyes deepened. "Has she been looking for him all this while?"Bryan nodded and said with a sigh, "Yes. Mommy has been looking for him ever since he went missing, but he's nowhere to be found."Jeremy's eyes narrowed as an indescribable emotion ro

    Aaron rolled up the window as he spoke, causing Annie to blush inexplicably."Why are you nervous?" she asked him with a frown.Aaron came closer and asked, "Well, aren't you? After all, we're getting married tomorrow."Annie's expression froze before a small smile broke through. "I'm actually not that nervous."She was not nervous as she did not believe Aaron would go through with the marriage. She was sure he was just flirting with her.Aaron pretended to be disappointed. "Sigh, it seems I'm the only one who's nervous. You don't care about our marriage at all!"Annie could not bear to be with him like that, so she said, "It's getting late. Please, kindly send me how now."Aaron sighed. As helpless as he felt at that moment, he knew he deserved it for treating Annie badly in the past.…Two days later, at New Capital City Airport, Sophia came to pick up her father alone, leaving Jeremy and Bryan to wait at home.Sophia instinctively glared at Melinda when she saw her coming

    Adam frowned when he noticed that Lilin was no longer with him. "Where did Lilin go?"Melinda snapped out of her senses and looked around, only to realize that their daughter was missing. "That can't be! Lilin was just behind me!"Having confirmed that Lilin was missing, Adam's expression turned stern, and he swiftly ordered his subordinates, "What are you standing around for? Start searching for Lilin!""Understood!" the subordinates replied in unison.Just as they were about to split up and search for her, a young girl's voice called out, "Don't bother! I'm right here!"Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and spotted a grown-up Lilin in sportswear. With her hands in her trouser pockets, she walked toward them at a leisurely pace while chewing her bubble gum.Melinda pulled her daughter hastily. "Where have you been? Please don't just wander off alone, especially since the airport is huge and you're not familiar with the place at all!""I went to the bathroom," Lilin

    Sophia thought back to the past and realized that Adam never cared so much about her mother before. She got angrier the more she thought about it.Adam was so occupied with carrying Lilin that she did not notice Sophia's souring emotions. It was only when he wanted to bring Lilin to Sophia that he seemed to be aware of Sophia's presence. When he saw that Sophia was alone, he frowned and asked, "Did you come here alone, Sophia? Where's Zachary and Benjamin?"Sophia snapped back to her senses and explained, "I didn't ask Zachary to come because his disability makes it difficult for him. Benjamin is with him at home, too."Adam snorted. "Doesn't he have a wheelchair? Couldn't he have shown some effort in meeting his wife's parents from the airport? This is basic courtesy!"Sophia did not like hearing her father talk about Zachary that way. "Please don't say that about Zachary. You know better than anyone why he's in this condition now. He wouldn't have wanted this either."Adam felt

    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
