Chapter 1081

Corinne was not hungry at all since she had eaten before she came. However, at that moment, she was willing to do anything to get Mother Kalista out of her sight."Of course not, Mother Kalista. I'm actually looking forward to your cooking!"Only then would Mother Kalista leave her alone with Mother Cathrina, which was what Mother Cathrina wanted.After Mother Kalista left the hall, Mother Cathrina pulled Corinne to sit down. "Corinne, why did you come back so suddenly? Did something happen?"Corinne was touched by her question. 'Only people who care about me will ask me that,' she thought.She quickly shook her head. "Don't worry, Mother Cathrina. Nothing happened. I was just in the neighborhood, so I thought I'd drop by to visit you."Mother Cathrina nodded with relief. She then asked, "How's the investigation on your mother going?"Corinne had told her about Emily in the past, so Mother Cathrina knew why she worked so hard over the years.Corinne shook her head ruefully. "I

Corinne was surprised to hear Mother Cathrina talking about the past. She did not really know what happened to her back then, and all she heard was Mother Cathrina was a wanderer who happened to stumble into the convent and became a nun after receiving permission from the abbess. However, for some reason, the abbess did not allow her to be fully professed.Mother Cathrina sighed and looked at Corinne wearily. "The fact that you can't forgive them means you're still stuck in the past."Corinne would have been angry had anyone else said that. However, she knew she owed Mother Cathrina for the life she had, so she simply asked softly, "Tell me, Mother Cathrina—have you forgiven all the people who have hurt you in the past?"Mother Cathrina's eyes darkened. "No. I haven't. Nor will I ever."Some strands of her hair had escaped out of her headdress as though reminding her all the hurt, the pain, and the worries of the past would always be with her, no matter where she went.After a pau

Jason shrugged and smiled. "I guess I can go pray at the altar again. I won't bother you two anymore. Corinne, I'll find you later, okay?"He winked at Corinne before walking out of the main hall.Corinne could feel the anger flaring up inside of her. 'I told him to behave while he's here!'After Jason left, the usually taciturn Mother Cathrina grabbed Corinne's wrist and looked at her worriedly. "Corinne, what kind of man is your boyfriend?"Corinne was caught off-guard by the question. After a brief pause, she answered hesitantly, "Um… He's a bit older than me, and…I guess he's not that bad.""Is he good to you?""Quite," said Corinne since Jeremy's performance in the last few days was not that great, giving her cause to wonder if they really had a future together. Nevertheless, she decided to keep that to herself as she did not want to worry Mother Cathrina.Mother Cathrina stared intently into Corinne's eyes for a long time before looking up at the angel statue on the main a

Corinne was shocked to find out Mother Cathrina had been harboring this kind of hidden agenda all along. She cleared her throat awkwardly, "Ahem! Well… I must say, that's—"Worried Corinne might have gotten the wrong idea, Mother Cathrina quickly added, "Don't get me wrong, Corinne. It might look like I'm doing all this for my son's benefit, but I'm doing it for your benefit too. I don't want you to marry an unreliable man like I did. My ex-husband might be a good-for-nothing player, but my son is certainly not."Even as a little boy, he hated his father with all his guts. He even took an oath to either take up celibacy or swear loyalty to one woman alone for the rest of his life. My son is the only man in the world I feel is worthy to entrust the rest of your life to, so I had hoped you'd marry him. That way, you won't have to endure the pain of betrayal like I did."Corinne never expected Mother Cathrina would one day try to set her up with her son. "I'm sorry to disappoint you, M

Mother Cathrina waved her hand. "You go, Corinne. I'm not hungry. Besides, I want to commune with God to ease my troubled heart."Hence, Corinne did not insist. She simply nodded and said, "Okay."Mother Kalista could not care less whether Mother Cathrina joined them for a meal. She happily pulled Corinne, who had been their biggest donor to date, and said, "Let's go, Corinne. I'm sure Sister Cathrina will join us later when she's hungry."Corinne did not want to bother Mother Cathrina communing with God. She bowed to her to show her gratitude for raising her before heading out with Mother Kalista.While walking out from the main hall, Corinne saw Jason standing outside under a tree with one hand raised to pluck the leaves. Under the reflection of the setting sun filtering through the gaps in the leaves, his side profile looked even more handsome.'A devilish man like him shouldn't appear in the convent. He'll just be forced to show his true form,' thought Corinne.Jason sensed s

Corinne thought Jason had overstepped his boundaries by eating her food. She wanted to stop him, but he was too quick for her.'Oh well, I didn't really touch the food anyway. Might as well not waste it and let him eat it,' she comforted herself.After eating, Jason put down his utensils. "Mother Kalista, I never knew the food in the convent could be so delicious! Can I come by for a meal again when I'm free?" he asked.Mother Kalista smiled and nodded. "Of course! I just hope you don't mind how plain-looking the convent is."Jason looked around at the shabby-looking room. "It is kinda plain looking. Maybe you can consider renovating the place? That way, it'll be more comfortable for you all to live in too."Mother Kalista sighed loudly. "It's not that we don't want to renovate, but this place isn't really popular with the worshipers, so we don't get a lot of donations. What little donation we got is only enough for us to pay for our groceries, so I'm afraid it's beyond our capabi

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
