Jeremy snapped out of his trance and tapped his cigarette against the ashtray. "Jason's secretary gave it to me."

"Oh… Why didn't she just bring it in for me instead?" Corinne asked curiously.

"I just so happened to bump into her outside the door, so she asked me to bring it in for you," Jeremy answered, giving her the short version of the story.

"Oh, alright."

Corinne massaged her hair with the towel and walked over to the bed to check if there were any messages on her phone.

"Come here!"

Jeremy extinguished his half-smoked cigarette and crooked his finger at her.

A disgusted expression appeared on Corinne's face. She was still angry at him, so she did not want to be near him at all. However, she did not like giving him the silent treatment either, so after thinking it through, she put down her phone and obediently walked over to him.

"Why did you ask me to come here?"

Jeremy patted his thigh and said one word.

"Sit."

Corinne was speechless. 'Is he really asking me to sit o

    Jeremy stroked Corinne's hair as though she was a cat."I'm just saying it like it is. You know Anya saved my life, so I have no choice but to make sure I can give her a reasonable explanation. I wouldn't have gone through all that trouble if it was any other person. Earlier, I wanted to come in with you but Anya suddenly vomited everywhere and kept calling for me, so I—"Corinne rolled her eyes and interrupted him, "Say no more. I can see where this is going."Jeremy raised an eyebrow. "Do you now? Well, where is this going?"Corinne sat up a little straighter in his lap and said confidently, "I understand your dilemma, Mister, because Anya is your savior and she lost something irretrievable to save you back then. So, you feel like you're deeply indebted to her. Therefore, you can't just leave her alone whenever she's in some sort of trouble. Am I right?"Jeremy did not deny what she said. "Yeah, I'm sorry. Please give me a little more time to repay her kindness. Once that's done

    The dress was too big for her. Not to mention, it was designed to make the wearer look sexy. Her strap slipped down, making her look all the more seductive with her gleaming pale shoulder and neck.The scent of her body wash wafted off her skin and the combined effect of her smell and look caused Jeremy's eyes to burn with lust and his Adam's apple rolled up and down.Corinne noticed the weird look in Jeremy's eyes. Following his gaze, she looked down at her body, only to discover that the already low neckline had plunged even lower because her strap had slipped off. She blushed with shame as her hand instinctively shot up to cover her chest."Hey! Stop staring at my chest, Mister!"She quickly pulled up her strap with another hand before moving that hand to cover her chest too. Hell would freeze over before she let him see that part of her body. However, the one-size-too-big dress was too loose on her, so without her even moving, the straps moved on their own accord again.Unfort

    In the meantime, Sunny had just grilled up a plate of his secret sauce chicken wings. He added some special seasoning and confidently brought it out for Corinne to try so that she would know what a real good chicken wing tastes like.However, when he looked up, he realized that there was no one at the gazebo.'Where's everyone?'He remembered Anya dragged Corinne over to the gazebo for a chat earlier, yet they were nowhere to be seen.Sunny scratched his head in confusion. He then carried the plate of chicken wings inside to look for them.…Sunny looked around the mansion for Corinne but still came up empty-handed. However, he saw Lucas and Anya sitting and talking on the sofa so he went over there with the plate of chicken wings still in his hand."Anya, have you seen Corinne?" he asked.Anya was leaning against Lucas. She looked uncomfortable and a little pale in the face. She tried to speak but had no energy to do so, coughing after every word."Oh, hi… Corinne… She's…"A

    Anya was not happy at all. However, she did not show it on her face. Instead, she pretended to be kind and understanding."Don't worry, Sunny. I'm fine and I'm sure Corinne didn't mean to do that, so… Let's just forget about it."Sunny nodded confidently. "Yeah! I'm sure she didn't mean it too. There must be some misunderstanding. I'll go ask her about it later."Anya was speechless.'Unbelievable! My own brother would rather believe Corinne is innocent than to accept the fact that she harassed me! Did she slip him a love potion or something?' thought Anya.Lucas witnessed their interaction with a sullen face. Then, he suddenly said sternly and sarcastically, "You seem to be very confident about what kind of person Corinne is. Tell me, did she bribe you with something?"Sunny felt pressured when he realized just how dark Lucas' face was. "No… She didn't, but she helped me out a few times and she never asked for a favor in return. I figured someone like that can't be all that bad!

    Anya had never seen Lucas and Sunny fight like that, so she did not know what to do.Everyone knew Sunny lived in fear of Lucas. In fact, even if Lucas said one plus one equals three, Sunny would not dare say otherwise. It was unprecedented for Sunny to contradict Lucas like that, and it was all Corinne's fault.The onlookers watched excitedly from a distance as the argument unfolded. Anya did not want her family to become a laughingstock, so she tugged on Lucas' sleeves."Lucas, forget it. Sunny's right. I must've misunderstood Corinne's intention. I'm sure she didn't mean to kick me, so please don't fight with Sunny anymore. He's still at that age when boys are stupid…"Anya slowly got up and sighed with resignation."I'll go upstairs to talk to Corinne and Jeremy. It's best if we clear up this misunderstanding as soon as possible."She then walked toward the stairs to find Corinne and Jeremy. To be honest, she had long wanted to do that.Earlier, she pretended to be sick so t

    "Who's this Corinne they're talking about?""Is she a daughter of a wealthy family?""Beats me. I've never heard of her.""No matter who she is, she must be a force to reckon with since both Mister Lucas and Mister Sunny are fighting over her!"Hearing all the ruckus, Lucas cleared his throat and looked at the crowd with his piercing eyes. The gossipers immediately felt an oppressive energy washing over them, which immediately shut them up.However, the gossipers were right about one thing—Corinne was a force to be reckoned with. The fact that Sunny, who never showed any interest in any girls before, would come to Corinne's defense was proof of that.Lucas narrowed his eyes. 'What the hell does Corinne want? Isn't it enough that she has Jeremy already? Why would she be interested in Sunny? I'm starting to suspect that her helping out grandfather at the embankment was all a ploy for her to get closer to us.'…In the guest room on the second floor, Corinne's face flushed red wit

    Corinne opened the door and saw Sunny and Anya standing behind one another outside the threshold.'Oh my god, they're so annoying,' thought Corinne. She did not have the mood to deal with both of them so she raised her eyebrow and coldly spat out one word, "Yes?"Anya looked at Corinne first and then she took a glance inside the room before softly saying, "Corinne, I'm sorry… After thinking about it, I have to admit that I've misunderstood you earlier. I knelt down on the ground because I thought you wanted me to do that and… I know you didn't mean to kick me."You must've accidentally brushed against me when you were walking…So I'm really, really sorry for making Lucas think you were bullying me and for getting you pushed into the pond. Can you please forgive me, Corinne?"Corinne narrowed her eyes and thought, 'Here she is with her pitiful act again.'Then she smirked and said out loud, "Miss Anya, there's no need for you to put on this act because I can assure you Jeremy is not

    "I understand what happened now, Anya! You must've mistakenly thought Corinne wanted you to kneel down before her but you lost your balance and fell to the ground. Then, Lucas just so happened to see that last part and thought you fell because Corinne kicked you."Anya was speechless. 'Is this idiot really my brother? How can he take her side and not mine?'Corinne's eyebrow quirked up. She was surprised by what Sunny said. 'I guess he finally has some sense knocked into him. He finally believes me after all those times of taking Anya's side.'Anya chuckled dryly and added to Sunny's conclusion, "Yeah, that could be it. I could have misheard since I was feeling a little dizzy from the cold…"The image Anya liked to portray to others had always been one of kind and gentle, so even though she disagreed with Sunny's statement, she did not dare to argue with him.After clearing up the misunderstanding, Sunny excitedly shoved the plate of chicken wing in front of Corinne's face."Here

    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
