Corinne rolled her eyes at Jeremy. "Hmph. Took you long enough to come back."Jeremy smiled, knowing that Corinne missed him dearly while he was gone.He then called out to the door. "Tommy!""Yes, sir?" Tommy came in immediately."Take Joey out for a walk. A long walk," ordered Jeremy."Yes, sir." Tommy walked toward Corinne, intending to lead Joey out for a stroll.Corinne, though reluctant to hand Joey over to Tommy, eventually relented.'Jeremy must have something important to say. why else would he clear the room?' thought Corinne.Once Tommy left the room with Joey, Corinne turned to Jeremy to see what he had in mind.Before she could say a word, her vision went black as Jeremy kissed her ferociously.Corinne was so shocked by his sudden kiss that she hit him a few times before she succumbed to the kiss. She was powerless against his passionate kiss.It was only when Corinne started to go weak in the knees that Jeremy finally let go of her.Slightly panting, she glare

Jeremy sounded upset, so Corinne went soft on him. "Hey! I was just kidding!""Little rascal, I promise that none of this will happen again. No one, and nothing, can separate us again," vowed Jeremy as he hugged Corinne tightly."I believe you, Mister," said Corinne with a nod.…"Everything is alright. Joey may go home now. Remember, keep his wounds away from water, and change the dressing on time," reported the nurse with Joey's report in her hands.Corinne and Jeremy thanked the nurse and left the ward with Joey.They then took Joey to Emily's ward to inform her that he had been discharged. They promised to visit her again after they had calmed the rest, especially Pamela and Greg.The atmosphere in the Holdens' estate was a little heavy. As a precautionary measure, Pamela and Greg hired bodyguards to keep a close eye on their grandchildren.Christine did not like being watched at all times, so she pouted and whined to Pamela, "Great-grandma, can you please ask these people

The kids cheered when Corinne assured them that everything was alright."Hooray! That means we won't need these bodyguards to follow us around anymore. Right, Mommy?" asked Christine."Yeah, Mommy. They're making us uneasy," said Bryan."That's right, Mommy!" Benjamin nodded quickly.Corinne raised her head and saw the bodyguards behind the children. She immediately understood that they were assigned by Pamela and Greg.She sighed. 'Poor Grandpa and Grandma. They must be so terrified by what happened yesterday.'However, Corinne decided to push the problem to Jeremy. "Well, go ask your daddy. It's his call."The kids immediately changed their target to Jeremy and surrounded him in no time."Daddy, you'll agree, won't you?" asked Bryan."Daddy, I don't want to be monitored round the clock…" said Benjamin pitifully."Ahem! Daddy, remember that you just came home to us. You should probably give us a good impression, don't you think?" reminded Christine as she blinked adorably.

The kids looked at Corinne. They could tell by her face that she was indeed tired."Then promise us, Daddy. Ask those weird men to stop following us, please?" begged Christine with her head tilted.Jeremy glanced at the bodyguards that were standing behind the kids and gestured to them with his chin.The three bodyguards immediately got the message and walked away.The kids sighed in relief. They finally won their freedom!Christine took a good look at Joey and said, "Joey, you're injured! Are you okay? Does it hurt?"Joey shook his head and stroked Christine's head like a good old brother. "I'm fine now. Daddy and Mommy saved me just in time! These wounds don't hurt one bit.""I knew Joey would be home safe and sound! After all, he's the bravest among us!" said Bryan.Benjamin nodded. "Our family has finally reunited! No more kidnapping!"Corinne was heartened to see the kids were getting along well. She went near Jeremy and clasped his hand tightly while they enjoyed the har

Pamela and Greg were indeed shocked when Corinne told them that she was a Rivera. They looked at each other before slowly smiling."Well, Corinne, you did surprise us when you said that you're a Rivera. But we know the type of person you are after protecting us while waiting for Jeremy to come home all these years. There's no doubt about that! We wouldn't mind even if you came from a family of some monstrous criminal, let alone the Riveras. You'll always be our granddaughter-in-law, regardless of who your ancestors are!" said Pamela with a loving smile. Greg nodded silently.Corinne was touched and relieved by Pamela's words. She thought her identity would become another obstacle between her and Jeremy, but her worries were groundless after all."That settles it, then. Your grandpa and I will pick a date for the grand wedding so that everyone in New Capital City knows how marvelous and gorgeous our granddaughter-in-law is!" said Pamela.Corinne smiled and nodded.Jeremy held her c

After Sunny had confirmed that he could propose to Xante at the end of the wedding, he went off to plan for his proposal.Corinne watched him leave and poked Jeremy with her elbow. "Hey, Mister. Did you hear that? He's going to propose with a diamond the size of a pigeon egg! What about you? Did you prepare anything for me?"Jeremy looked down at her. "You may want to take a look at the properties under your name."Corinne was not into diamonds at all. She was just teasing him, so she was surprised to find that he really did prepare something for her.She quickly checked her properties, only to find that the biggest diamond mine in South Namwal had been registered under her name that morning.She frowned. "Mister, this is…""I know you don't like wearing accessories, so I gave you a diamond mine instead. Now you can dig some diamonds during your free time. I bought this wedding gift with my secret stash of money. All my money is in your hands now," said Jeremy as he stroked her f

Apparently, Sunny was not asking Xante for her opinion. He was merely informing her.…Meanwhile, Cedric and Beatrice finally found out that Corinne was their long-lost granddaughter Luna. However, they did not ask Corinne to take up the family's name as they were aware that Emily and Corinne had suffered because of their wrongful conviction.They were grateful that the Riveras were invited to the wedding, even though they were not officially the bride's family.Both the Holden and Rivera families decided to end their feud once and for all. As long as Corinne was happy at the Holdens, the Riveras would not interfere. Should she be aggrieved in her marriage, however, the Riveras would not go easy on the Holdens.Emily attended the wedding with the Lovelaces. She had returned to the Lovelaces' residence after she was discharged from the hospital. When she went up on stage to give a speech, she could not help but cry. She gave her daughter all the blessings she could think of and wis

Maxwell's voice had not changed much. It was deep and pleasant as always, with a touch of change.Emily—who had just sighed in relief—was surprised to see Maxwell. Before she could stand up, he sat down beside her.Since there was no chance of escaping, Emily decided to calm down and looked elsewhere. "May I help you?"Although Maxwell was sitting next to her, he kept a distance from her so he could take a good look at her."I just want to clear the misunderstanding between us," said Maxwell while looking at her."Okay, go ahead," said Emily without looking at him.Maxwell sighed and started to explain, "Back then, there were simply too many misunderstandings between us. You thought that I cheated on you, and I thought that you'd fallen in love with someone else. That was why we were always fighting."But I swear, I've never cheated on you. I was too young and short-tempered back then, so when my parents chased you out of the house because of the rumor, I didn't stop them becaus

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
