'Oh, he didn't sleep a wink because he and Anya had spent the night experiencing the miracles of life!' Corinne remembered.Jeremy frowned when he saw the look of disgust on her face. "Do I disgust you? All men have beards, you know."Corinne came back to her senses, got up from him, and shook her head after moving a little away. "No. You look handsome with a beard."Whether or not he grew a beard had nothing to do with her, so the question of liking or disliking it did not arise."You think I'm handsome, then?" There was a surge of heat in Jeremy's expression, for it was rare to hear her say something nice about him.Corinne remained calm. "Your handsomeness is a fact. My opinion doesn't matter.""Is that why you are so cold toward me?""Am I supposed to be super friendly with you just because you're handsome? There are plenty of handsome men out there, so am I supposed to get close to all of them?"Jeremy's complexion darkened. He dragged her over, sat her down on the sofa wi

Jeremy raised his sharp eyes. "Who's calling?"Corinne felt that Jeremy seemed to have missed the point, so she stuffed the phone into his hand. "Hurry up! Don't let anything happen to her!"Jeremy narrowed his eyes, gazed deeply at her, then placed the phone to his ear.After hearing the call for help, his calm face tensed up suddenly as he stood up and asked in a deep voice, "Where are you? Stay there and don't go anywhere! I'll be there right away!"After ending the call, Jeremy hurried to leave but stopped suddenly and stared at Corinne.Corinne shrugged indifferently. "Go ahead. I'll be fine on my own!"The man had mixed emotions as he frowned and said, "Be good. I'll be back soon." He then rushed off.Corinne froze for a moment, feeling as though she had been transported all those years ago when her mother said the same thing to her at the hospital. "Be good. I'll be back soon."Sadly, her mother never came back....An hour passed, and after Corinne finished her cake,

"Don't be ridiculous! It's obvious that the man's status is unique and that he probably has the same sort of family background that could complement Miss Anya. They made for the perfect pair!"Corinne heard that while she passed slowly by the nurse's station, and she had a good guess of what could have happened. A pervert had stalked Anya, which led her to call Jeremy for help. By the time Jeremy arrived, however, the pervert had run off.The police then came to investigate potential suspects by checking the hospital surveillance footage. The nurses mentioned that Anya was in Ward 302, which did not seem too far away. She should be almost there if she kept walking and took the turn up ahead. Corinne turned the corner and found Ward 302 in no time.The door of the ward was half open, and there were plenty of people inside, including the police. Without getting too close, the angle was just right for her to see what was going on in the ward.Anya leaned against Jeremy's arms in shock

Rosie's eyes lit up when she saw the man who spoke, and her tone became gentle as she said, "Lucas, you're here!"Rosie's sudden lovestruck reaction prompted Corinne to turn around and have a look at who it was.The man behind her was tall and slender. He wore a finely tailored light-gray suit, and there was a touch of warm handsomeness to his expression. His beautiful long eyes were like an artist's portrayal of a charming man, with a hint of estrangement added to his demeanor. He exuded the condescending look of the high-bred member of society, like a god bereft of earthly influence as he stood high above all men.He looked at Corinne when she turned to look at him, and he recognized Corinne immediately. "You?"Corinne also recognized him as the grandson of the blind elderly man from the previous day.Seeing Lucas chatting with Corinne, Rosie panicked and had her guard up as she asked with a smirk, "Do you know Corinne?"Lucas glanced at Rosie insipidly before turning his warm

Amazingly, Corinne left the man stumped with just a few words.Jeremy leaned lazily against the door frame and placed his hands on his belt. There was a gentle sense of pride as he watched his wife gain the upper hand against Lucas. 'That's my girl!'He then walked over and asked, "Why did you come out instead of resting in your ward?"Corinne saw that Jeremy had come out of Ward 302 at some point and was walking toward her, which drew a frown from her as she said unhappily, "I've been sleeping too much and I'm bored, so I thought of coming out to check whether or not you're still alive."Jeremy's expression turned sullen, but he seemed to have gotten used to her ability to irritate people and was not angry as a result.His big rough hands covered the top of her head and massaged her impudently. "Sorry to burst your bubble, but I'm still alive. Were you disappointed?"Corinne dodged the man's touch smoothly by moving a step. She despised having him touch her when his hand had jus

Chapter 286

In the quiet hospital corridors, Corinne could be seen hurriedly striding past the nurses' station as she made her way to her ward with Jeremy following closely behind her.Witnessing this, the nurses began to whisper excitedly between themselves."That's him! That's him! That man is Miss Anya's boyfriend!""Oh my god! He's so handsome!""But why is he chasing after another girl right now instead of being with Miss Anya in Room 302?""Please don't tell me the three of them are involved in a love triangle!"A frown immediately appeared on Corinne's face when she overheard what the nurses said. Annoyed, she sped up her pace.She turned to close her door once she was back in her ward, but Jeremy quickly blocked the door from closing with his hand. "What is the matter with you?" asked Jeremy through the gap."You shouldn't come in, Mister," said Corinne as she struggled to close the door."Give me a good reason why I shouldn't go in," demanded Jeremy with a darkened face.Corinne

"I didn't want to give the nurses something to gossip about nor do I want to be involved in a love triangle with you and Miss Anya. I can't think of anyone who'd be happy to have fingers being pointed at her and be called a mistress."Jeremy understood where she was coming from, but that only served to fuel his displeasure even more. "Corinne, aren't you going to at least ask me what happened? Things are not as you believed, okay?"Corinne was calm. "I don't feel like there's a need to ask, and there's no need for you to explain yourself to me either. This isn't like you. Others might think that you like me…"Jeremy narrowed his eyes. Suddenly, he grabbed her jaw with his big hands and forcefully twisted her face to the side so that she had no choice but to look at him. "There's no one here but us. Who are these others you speak of?"Corinne was speechless.Jeremy grabbed a few tissues and lightly wiped off some of the soup from Corinne's lips. "Well, go on and say it. Who are the

'What illegal activities?' thought Corinne puzzledly. It was obvious she was confused by the expression on her face.Jeremy came over and asked in a low voice, "Which case are you referring to?"It was only then the police officers noticed Jeremy was also in the room. They were a little caught off guard by that."Mister Jeremy, do you know Miss Corinne?""Yes. What business do you have with her?" questioned Jeremy seriously.Anya—who was standing next to Jeremy—recalled the terrible ordeal she experienced last night when she saw the police officers. Instinctively, she leaned on Jeremy for support, as she exclaimed anxiously, "Mister police, what case is Corinne involved in? Is there a possibility that you might've gotten the wrong person? She's a good person, I tell you."The police officers were even more thrown off to see Anya. "Miss Anya, you're here, too! So both of you know Miss Corinne."Considering the victim and her 'family' had a right to know, the police officers decid

"Corinne, I really wanted to be your friend. I even brought some homemade soup to share with you, so why did you want to hurt me like that? What did I ever do to you that you wish to hurt me so badly?""You didn't do anything to me. You've only been back for two days, so there was no way you could've done anything to me," said Corinne calmly and with a smirk on her face. She wondered if Anya would be able to read between the lines.Anya returned home two days ago, while Corinne had been hospitalized since yesterday morning due to her suffering from a severe allergic reaction. All throughout her stay, Annie and Jeremy had been by her side, so there was no time for her to hatch some devious plan even if she wanted to hurt Anya.Besides, there was also the fact that no one even knew when Anya would return until yesterday. The plan would not have worked unless Corinne had the psychic ability to predict the future. More importantly, Corinne did not even know who Anya was until yesterday.

Jeremy was unhappy about the turn of events but decided to keep his mouth shut and respect Corinne's wishes since she agreed to it. Thus, that was how both of Corinne's hands were put into handcuffs.Other than that, the bureau even sent someone to keep a watch over her from outside the door, which meant her freedom was temporarily restricted. However, they did not immediately interrogate her as she still needed to undergo a few more rounds of IV drips.Out of humanity, the police officers listened to the doctor's advice and agreed to let her rest after she had completed her IV drip. There would be plenty of time for them to conduct an interrogation after she had finished resting.Corinne ate the breakfast that Jeremy sent someone to buy for her and soon drifted off to a peaceful slumber as she waited for the IV drip to finish. She was ready to be interrogated once it was noontime.According to the rules, only personnel involved in the case were allowed to be present during an inte
