Chapter 1841

Sophia no longer had any taunts up her sleeve and shot Corinne a fierce glare. Her eyes were red with jealousy when she saw Corinne and Jeremy standing together. All of a sudden, she cackled manically and clutched her belly as she said, "You're only confident because you've given birth to three of his children! But you're not the only woman who can give birth, you know! I can do it, too! I'm pregnant with his child now!"Corinne narrowed her eyes and looked at Sophia's abdomen. "And how did that happen?"Sophia gazed at Jeremy lustfully and retorted, "How else? Jeremy made passionate love to me night after night! I'm bound to get pregnant if he keeps filling me up!"Corinne turned and glanced at Jeremy, who remained expressionless. "I've never done anything of the sort."Corinne scoffed softly and directed her attention back to Sophia. "You heard him. How is he supposed to get pregnant if he hasn't done anything with you? What do you take me for? An idiot? He was wheelchair-bound i

Sophia did the unimaginable after she forced a man who never hit a woman to shove her away so forcefully. Her irrationality took over, and she had gone past the point of no return. She could not bear to see them happily together after losing the one thing she held near and dear to her."I'll ruin you!"Just as Jeremy was checking to see if Corinne was hurt, Sophia took out what looked like a mineral water bottle from her pocket. Inside the bottle was an unknown liquid, which she tried to splash at Corinne as she unscrewed the bottle cap and screamed at Corinne. It was too late to evade the attack by the time Jeremy noticed it, and his only recourse was to wrap Corinne in his arms and form a human shield as he rolled down the stairs.The liquid Sophia spilled on the ground bubbled up in some sort of gas. Since her first attempt had failed, she rushed down the stairs with the remaining half bottle and splashed it at them. All of a sudden, a loud bang echoed in the stairwell as the doo

As soon as he looked up, he saw a rare display of emotion on Corinne's usually resilient visage. He felt his heart ache and immediately stood up to wipe her tears away. "Why are you crying? I'm fine. It doesn't hurt. Stop crying, okay? You wouldn't want your mother to disapprove of me as her son-in-law if she sees that I've made you cry."Corinne failed to control her tears and said in between sobs, "How can you say that it doesn't hurt? An injury like this is going to be painful..."Jeremy hugged her. "Well, it does hurt a little, but it won't hurt anymore because you're with me. My mood has improved so much with you around."Corinne pouted and placed his injured arm down as she urged him to stop moving. "You and your sweet-talking! From now on, you'll have to listen to everything I say and make sure your dressing is changed on time!"Jeremy responded obediently. "Yes, honey. Please stop crying, and help me leave a good impression on your mother."Corinne raised her arms and wipe

Corinne's chastising stopped Lucas from making any further remarks about Jeremy, but he did make a point to tease her, "You're quick to jump to his defense."Corinne snorted. "Well, he is my husband. Defending him is the right thing to do!"Corinne's animated response suggested that she was unharmed and that there was nothing for Lucas to worry about. "Fine. I'll praise him for his noble actions. Are you happy now?""That's more like it. Don't you make things difficult for him!" Corinne said.Lucas felt that he had been wrongly accused. "My dear sister, you overestimate me. I never will and never have made things difficult for him. If anything, he didn't even give me a chance to settle scores with him after what he did.""That can't be helped," Corinne said. "You still have a long way to go if you want to catch up to him."Lucas responded in exasperation, "Wow, how ungrateful of you. How could you care more about your man than your brother? Sigh, I won't argue with you about this

Jeremy did not allow Corinne to exert herself and help him, so he sternly replied, "I'm not that weak, you know? Don't worry about me. It's just a minor injury. I want to change your mother's first impression of me."Corinne smirked. "I'm rooting for you, then. Do your best to win her over!""I'll give it my all." Jeremy smiled.When they returned to Emily's ward, Jeremy once again drew everyone's attention there as he changed into a hospital gown, much to Emily, Melinda, and Lilin's confusion.Jeremy stepped forward gracefully and placed the gifts down on the bed. "I got these for you, ma'am. I hope you'll like them."Emily leaned on the bed and looked at the gifts that Jeremy had placed down. It was then that she understood why Jeremy had excused himself earlier—it was to get her some gifts."You're so considerate! You didn't have to go through all that trouble, you know?""Thank you, and apologies again for earlier," Jeremy answered.Corinne could not help herself from holdi

Corinne looked at Melinda and explained, "This is no longer about teaching Sophia a lesson. She tried to splash acid on me earlier. I wasn't hurt, but Jeremy got injured trying to protect me. The police have taken her into custody now."Melinda, Lilin, and Emily gasped in shock."How could she do such a thing?" Melinda asked in disbelief. Though she knew that Sophia had done plenty of extreme things before, attempting to splash acid on someone else was by far the worst.Lilin scoffed resentfully. "She's capable of anything because she's confident she can get away with anything! Dad has been pampering her since she was young, so this isn't that much of a shock."Concerned about her daughter and son-in-law, Emily asked, "Are you sure you're fine, Corinne?"Corinne sat beside Emily and assured her, "I'm not injured. Don't worry, Mom."Emily then turned her attention to Jeremy and said, "Where did the acid hit you? Please show it to me."Jeremy walked over and held up his arm. He th

Melinda and Lilin hurried to the hotel, where Adam had just received news of Sophia's arrest. He was getting ready to head out and bail his eldest daughter out of jail, but Melinda and Lilin reached just in time to block the doorway.Adam was startled to see Melinda. "Why are you here? Was your best friend already discharged from the hospital? But never mind that for now. I have some matters to handle right now. I'll be back soon, and I'll explain everything later. You can wait here with Lilin in the meantime!"Melinda frowned. "And where are you going? Are you thinking of bailing out your daughter?""How do you know about that?" Adam asked. He turned to Melinda and stared at her in surprise.Melinda snorted, "Why are you even thinking of bailing her out when she committed something so heinous? She'll never learn from her mistakes if you keep doing this, and she'll grow even bolder in the future!"Adam frowned and said, "Don't be like that, Mel. Sophia might be stubborn, but her a

Melinda knew her husband's character well, and convincing him to apologize would be an uphill battle. Nonetheless, she was determined to give it her best shot."You of all people should be aware that Sophia has been in the wrong for kidnapping Jeremy. He had a family, which Sophia destroyed by separating him from them. Whichever way you put it, our family owes them an apology. Apologizing to them is the least that we should do."Adam maintained a stern expression. "Let him settle scores with me if he wants. To hell if I'll apologize!"Melinda felt powerless, "What else am I supposed to say to convince you? Must you make both sides suffer? Em and I are best friends. You're putting me in a tight spot if you insist on your stubborn ways!"Adam remained silent as he was unable to let go of his ego.Lilin, who had been standing quietly to one side, approached them and made a clown face at her father. "Blah, blah, blah!"Adam was bewildered by her reaction and looked at her unhappily.

Meanwhile, at the hospital, Corinne talked with her mother while Jeremy sat quietly on the side and peeled some apples for them. Despite Corinne's insistence that he should strain his injured arm, he brushed her concerns off and assured her that he was fine. Nonetheless, his arm injury led him to skip work in the afternoon and delegate his tasks to his subordinates.Evening soon came, and Corinne was contemplating what to order for dinner when a knock was heard on the ward door. Jeremy rose to answer it, and his face turned cold when he saw that Adam had visited them.Adam's attitude was just as sour. He scrutinized Jeremy from head to toe and seemed to pay a particular focus on his legs before sneering, "Your legs seem just fine. Kudos for putting on that act!"Jeremy narrowed his eyes and retorted, "I had no reason to be honest with you people."Adam was about to mock him further when Melinda intervened promptly. "Mister Jeremy, I brought him here to apologize to you and Corinne.

Melinda felt extremely embarrassed and bowed her head on behalf of her husband. "I know this isn't remotely enough, but I still hope you'll be more open to accept it. He acted out of desperation to protect his daughter, and I'll make sure he makes amends to you."Adam frowned when he saw Melinda bowing to someone younger than her. He was about to say something when Lilin intervened by holding his hand and persuading him to remain silent. Adam kept quiet, albeit reluctantly.Corinne keenly sensed what was going on. She maintained a stoic expression, accompanied by a somewhat ironic smile."I'm reminded of a saying, but I'm not sure if you've heard it before," Corinne remarked."And what's that?" Melinda asked, somewhat perplexed."The law wouldn't be necessary if apologies had any value."Melinda mumbled. "Oh..."Corinne then continued, "I understand that you're my mother's best friend, and you've been taking very good care of her all these years. Your relationship with her is so
