Corinne and Jason arrived at an artistic building. He passed the car key to the valet for the valet to park his car. Later, he led Corinne into his art gallery like a gentleman.…The orange sports car was parked somewhere not too far from the art gallery. The people in the car were looking over."Sir, I think they're just here to see the art exhibition," Felix tried reasoning. "They're not having an affair as you think. The relationship between our family and Holdens is already bad. It's just going to make things worse if you continue to stalk Mister Jeremy's newlywed wife!"Sunny thought otherwise. "You know nothing! There's something fishy about them going to the art exhibition alone!"After that, he got out of the car and wanted to continue stalking Corinne in the art gallery, but the staff at the entrance stopped him. "I'm sorry, sir. You'll need to have the invitation card to enter."Sunny frowned unhappily. "I'm a Rivera. My family has been close to the Talbots for many ye
Suddenly, Jason bent down and got close to Corinne's ear. He whispered, "But, if you like them, I can give them to you…as proposal gifts for your hand in marriage."Corinne grimaced and shot him an annoyed stare. She was going to ignore his joke, but as she tried to think of a way to get Jason to sell those paintings to her, an ominous feeling rose in her chest.She frowned, and her expression was looking terrible, too.Jason noticed Corinne was feeling unwell and asked, "What's wrong?"There was sweat coming out of her forehead, and her lips had turned pale. "I'm just…not feeling quite well."Jason looked worried. "Did you catch a cold because of the low temperature in the art gallery?""M—Maybe." She gritted her teeth uncomfortably. She even started to shiver.Jason took off his jacket to put it on her. He said softly, "Let me bring you to the lounge so you can rest. There's no air-conditioner there, so the temperature is slightly warmer.""Thank you."Corinne had a hard tim
At that moment, Corinne raised her head and, spotting Pamela, was stunned. Despite feeling weak, she feebly greeted, "Grandma? Why are you here…?"Before Pamela could say anything, Francine stepped forward with her arms on her waist and scolded, "Corinne Carew! Aren't you ashamed of yourself? The Holdens would never allow a sl*t like you to be part of the family!"Sunny looked pleased with the result and joined in, saying, "Corinne, you're caught red-handed! Stop pretending!"Corinne's eyebrows furrowed. At that moment, she did not have the energy to argue with them.Unlike the others who barged into the lounge, Jason stood quietly and watched them before turning his attention back to Corinne. She looked pale, still. He was amazed by the relationship between her and the people who barged in. Gradually, he connected all the dots.After he helped Corinne to sit steadily, he got up and smiled. "Hello, ma'am. I didn't know you were coming. Why didn't you send someone to notify me in a
When Francine knew her grandmother, Pamela, was going to believe what Corinne said, she quickly cut in. "Grandma, don't listen to her! Don't let her lie to you again. If she was sick, why didn't she go to the hospital? Why did she instead stay in this room with another man? Our family would never allow such a shameless woman into the family. Corinne Carew is a bad person. She didn't just have an affair; she even stole Rosie's watch yesterday. Ask Rosie about it!"Rosie, pretending to be generous and forgiving, shook her head. "Ma'am, I'm fine. It's just a watch, and it's not really that expensive. Though, what Corinne has done now… It's unforgivable. She betrayed Jeremy."Corinne's face was as white as a piece of paper. Still, she managed a smile as she continued to ignore Rosie and the others. Pulling the blanket away from her, she tried to stand up. "You may choose to not believe me, Grandma, but I'd never do anything that would bring shame to the Holdens."It was haunting for Pam
Rosie was sure this was the climax of this escalating tension. She felt a sort of joy when she felt Corinne's misfortune approaching. 'This is karma for ruining my watch! Won't it be nice if I can actually say she deserves it?'Rosie pretended to sigh and approached Jeremy, attempting to console him by saying, "Jeremy, don't be angry. No one expected Corinne to betray you…"Jeremy glanced at her for just a second before looking back at Corinne. He said coldly, "Come here."Despite all that happened, Corinne was very calm. She expressed her gratitude to Jason, who helped her, and slowly walked toward Jeremy as she was told. "Mister…"Before she reached Jeremy, however, a dizzy feeling hit her, and she nearly fell again. Jeremy's long arms managed to catch her, and he pulled her to his form, furrowing his eyebrows as he did. "Is this what you got? Why is your body so weak?"The sick feeling overwhelmed her, and it did not help that Jeremy mocked her for being in such a state. If she
Having known there was no major problem with Corinne's body, Pamela was finally able to rest her heart.On the other hand, it showed that Corinne was not pregnant. The old woman sighed regrettably. Her great-grandchild would have to wait until next month, at the earliest.Since things did not progress the way Sunny expected, he was not able to give up. He walked over and said, "Jeremy, before you arrived, Corinne was lying in here with that man. No one knew what they were doing in here before we came. You should divorce that shameful woman!"Jeremy looked back at him. "Why are you not in school? Why are you paying so much attention to my wife?"A chill crawled up Sunny's back. He gulped. "I…I took a day off today!"Jeremy raised an eyebrow. "To stalk my wife?"Sunny mumbled, "I…I accidentally spotted her, so I decided to follow her. Then, I saw her meeting other men…"The expression on Jeremy's face remained unchanged. He squinted. "Sunny Rivera, let me remind you. She's married
Jeremy gave Jason a light response. "When did you come back?"Jason walked to him with a cheerful smile. "Over a week ago. I came back in a hurry and didn't have the time to look for you, Zeke, and the others!"Jeremy felt alright. "No worries. We can do that when you're free."Jason smiled again. "Actually, we met each other when we were in Twilight the other day. You were too busy and occupied at that time, so I didn't think it was appropriate for me to greet you.""Is that so?" There were no changes to Jeremy's expression, but a hint of coldness flashed by his long eyes.They did see each other from a far distance when they were in Twilight. It was the day Corinne lost when she played a game with other people in the Snow Room. The 'punishment' she received was to kiss a man, and the man she chose was, in fact, Jason.Jason said, "I heard that you just got married. Too bad I missed the wedding."Jeremy's lips curled into a small smile as he said, "That's not a problem at all.
Jason rushed over with a middle-aged man who was carrying a first-aid kit. "My doctor has just arrived, Jeremy. How about you let him check on dear Corinne's condition?"'Did he just call her 'dear'? I'm her husband, but I've never even called her that before.'"I won't trouble you." Jeremy lifted Corinne into his arms and walked right past Jason.Jason knew that going to the hospital was the last thing that Corinne wanted, so he rushed up to them and intended to persuade Jeremy.However, Tommy turned around and stopped him. "Mister Jason, I hope you won't worry too much about Mister Jeremy's wife. Mister Jeremy instructed me to call an ambulance, and it's already waiting outside."'Ambulance?' Jason narrowed his charming eyes and looked at Jeremy's rear figure as the man left with Corinne in his arms. Jason remained in pensive thought and said nothing....Corinne's expression became even uglier as she lay on a stretcher in the ambulance.Her sour expression stemmed not from h
