Gerald did not ask anything further."I must say, what's all this fuss about not being able to find Corinne? I mean, you can get any other woman you want, Jeremy. You should just forget about her," said Zeke.Jeremy frowned and ignored him.Gerald glared at Zeke. "No one will think you're dumb if you don't open your mouth!"Zeke shrugged innocently and said, "What? Am I wrong? This isn't the first time Corinne has run away. Why should Jeremy still care about her when she dumped him twice? If I were you, Jeremy, I would've shacked up with another woman already."Jeremy's expression darkened.Gerald quickly kicked Zeke on the legs. "Why don't you stop annoying us and p*ss off downstairs?""Ouch!" Zeke screamed out in pain. However, that did nothing to stop him from talking. Though, to his credit, he did bring up the liveliness of the atmosphere.Sophia, who sat on the armchair with a glass of wine in her hand, laughed at Zeke's antics."Oh, you're funny, Mister Zeke! I won't be

Sophia laughed wryly. "You're an interesting man, Mister Zeke.""What's the use of being interesting if you don't love me?""Oh, stop it. I know I'm not your type either."…Meanwhile, in a luxurious villa on the outskirts of the city, Corinne was watching the television while having her dinner.The villa belonged to Jason, and she had been living there for close to six months. She intended to fly out of the country with Jason's private jet after the storm died down. Alas, the chaos never settled as Jeremy still ordered his men to look for her and keep a close eye on all major transport systems.Even though she could use Jason's private jet, the pilot would still need to clear the flight with the air traffic controller, which would require him to submit all the passengers' names. She was sure she would be exposed then since Jeremy would be monitoring all the private jets leaving the country as well. Thus, she had no choice but to accept Jason's arrangement to hide out in the vill

'Jeremy's usually very cold to strangers, but the baby bump will attract too much attention. Then again, Newmoon Group will face the risk of bankruptcy if Holden Group doesn't pay the remaining balance…'Corinne did not have the heart to sit idly as the company she took so much effort to build went bankrupt. Not to mention, she had a kid to feed, so she could not lose the company!However, no matter how much brainpower she used on the problem, she could not come up with a perfect solution.Suddenly, the doorbell rang.She snapped back to the present and thought with alarm, 'Who could it be?'No one would come except for the delivery man, who would come every other day to deliver groceries and other essentials, but he already came yesterday!Corinne frowned as she watched the servant open the door. She sighed with relief when she saw the servant bowing.'It's just Jason. But what's he doing here again? The villa is a four-hour return journey from the city. Doesn't he think it's t

Corinne leaned back against the sofa and answered absent-mindedly, "It's nothing.""Is it prenatal depression? Shall I get a doctor to check up on you?" asked Jason worriedly.Corinne shook her head."Don't worry. I've always been cautious, so I promise you the Holdens will never find you here. Don't keep it to yourself if you feel any discomfort," assured Jason gently.Corinne looked up at him and said a little sheepishly, "I'm fine. Thank you, Mister Jason, for all you've done for me. I really don't want to trouble you with any more stuff."Jason pretended to be angry. "You should drop the 'Mister' in front of my name if you really want to thank me!"Corinne knew Jason had feelings for her. Thus, she had been sure to keep her boundaries, whether through words or actions, so he would not get any wrong idea.However, this was not the first time Jason expressed his dissatisfaction at being called 'Mister Jason'. He wanted her to simply call him 'Jason'.To show her gratitude, Co

Jason narrowed his eyes. "Corinne, just what is your relationship with Newmoon Group?""Xante and Aaron are my childhood friends," said Corinne honestly."I see." Jason got the gist of the whole thing, so he did not ask any further questions about it. "This is certainly tricky. One hundred and fifty million dollars isn't a small sum at all."That was why Corinne was so frustrated. If it was only a few thousand or even one hundred thousand dollars, she could have just let the whole thing be."Corinne, have you ever heard of an ancient art of face disguise, Metamorph?" asked Jason with a smile and a raised eyebrow.'Metamorph?' Corinne frowned. "What? Like in the magic world?"Jason shook his head. "Not exactly. I heard there's a mask that will change your face completely once you wear it."Corinne frowned. "Even if there's such a mask, how are you going to get it?"Jason smiled. "I can try to get it. Then you can wear the mask to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony without having

At that moment, Xante's secretary knocked on the door."Come in," said Xante after snapping out of her trance.The secretary came in and presented a file. "Miss Xante, these are the documents you've asked for.""Thanks. You can put it there," said Xante with a nod.The secretary did as she was told. "One more thing, Miss Xante… Mister Sunny has come to visit you again. Should I let him in?"Xante pinched the bridge of her nose. "Might as well."She knew Sunny would stay outside her office until she let him in, and that would leave a bad impression on Xante's staff."As you wish, Miss Xante," said the secretary before going out.A minute later, Sunny swaggered into Xante's office and sat on the chair in front of her desk. "Xante, it's nearly lunchtime. Where shall we eat later?"Xante looked at him expressionlessly. "I didn't agree to have lunch with you.""Well, you're going with me whether you like it or not."Xante raised her eyebrow threateningly. "Are you ordering me?"

Xante drove Sunny to a very famous fine-dining restaurant. She thought she should at least bring him to eat something good since he went through a lot of trouble to sneak out of his house.In the end, they bumped into somebody they knew in the restaurant.Jeremy was dining at the restaurant with a very sexily dressed woman. They were eating and chatting as though no one else was in the world.Xante narrowed her eyes with disgust.'Well, they certainly look cozy, yet he still wouldn't give up his search for the boss. I don't get it. Why does he still insist on looking for her? Why doesn't he just spend the rest of his life with his exotic wife? It's all his fault that the boss has to stay in hiding!' thought Xante.She did not plan to greet Jeremy as they were not very close to begin with. Most of the interactions they had were always work-related.However, she forgot one little thing, and that was Sunny.As soon as Sunny saw Jeremy, he waved to him and said, "Jeremy, fancy seein

Sunny, on the other hand, did not think too much of it and said, "Xante, let's just join them. The more the merrier after all."After thinking about it, Xante walked over to their table with a mission to get to know Sophia better. "Well, don't mind if we do, then."Sophia tilted her head and smiled at her. "A friend of Jeremy is a friend of mine too. Please, go ahead."Xante pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses and scoffed internally. She knew Sophia's breezy attitude was all an act since every word of hers was meant to let others know just how close she was with Jeremy. As to whether Sophia was doing it on purpose or accidentally… Well, that depended on who was the recipient of her message.Xante sat beside Sophia while Sunny took the seat beside Jeremy. There was an awkward silence once everyone was settled.Jeremy continued to cut his steak with an apathetic expression. It was as if he was not interested in what was going on in his surroundings at all. In fact, he would give only

'Heh! Sophia is something else, too! She knew I'm the boss' friend, yet she dared to tell me Mister Jeremy doesn't really talk about the boss much lately. She's obviously declaring doing this to let me know Mister Jeremy is hers alone,' thought Xante.Xante went on to speculate that Sophia was hoping she would tell Corinne of their conversation today so she would know to back off. 'Haha! These two manipulative b*stard and b*tch are meant for each other.'"What makes you think I'll tell you when Mister Jeremy obviously doesn't want to tell you? Miss Sophia, I'm honored that you'll ask us to join you for lunch, but please bear in mind we're not really close enough to talk about a lot of things," said Xante.Instead of being offended, Sophia smiled at her. "Miss Xante, I was just curious. Why are you being so defensive? Could it be that you know where Miss Corinne is hiding now?"Jeremy suddenly snapped his head up to look at Xante when he heard that.Xante almost lost her cool. 'Thi

Xante's eyes darkened, but she then smirked. "So what if she did?"Sophia, with her chin resting in her hand, fluttered her eyelashes at Xante. "What did she complain about? Let's see if what she said is true. My guess is that I'll probably agree with her about most things."Xante scoffed. "Miss Sophia, I really don't think we're close enough to have this kind of girl talk."Sophia shrugged. She looked disappointed, but she did not ask any more questions.Surprisingly, Jeremy did. "What did she say about me?"Xante was a little taken aback. She turned toward Jeremy, her gold-rimmed glasses glinting, and smiled. "Why should you care what she said about you?""Just what the hell did she say about me?" repeated Jeremy impatiently.Xante chuckled coldly. "She didn't say anything. I was just joking with Miss Sophia, so just forget about it."Jeremy's face darkened with anger.Xante continued eating her steak to avoid looking at Jeremy's gaze.Sunny could feel the tension in the ai
