All Chapters of Taking Turns in Love: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

Hearing Amanda say those words, Vlad's anger subsided slightly. With a smile, he said, "In that case, I should be at greater fault because I'm older."Amanda laughed. "I didn't say that."Vlad let out an easy chuckle.Just like that, the situation blew over.For helping mediate the situation, Corbyn offered to treat Amanda to a meal in lieu of thanks. Amanda agreed, so the two of them went to a restaurant. They ended up heading to The Pond, the place Corbyn and Dean had gone to last time.Corbyn had mixed feelings for Amanda. Amanda was his cousin, so they shared a close blood relation, and they'd known each other since they were children. However, they just never got close. Even so, when it came to people like Amanda, even if he wasn't close to her, it was also very hard to hate her. Amanda was always very courteous, kind, and smart. She was the kind of kid that other parents would compare their own children to, except Veronica was never the type of parent to compare her son

News that Corbyn was planning to go to Merunica quickly reached Paxton and Pearl. Paxton asked him, "Are you going to Merunica to redeem your mistake or are you going for Dean?"Corbyn shrugged helplessly. He couldn't answer either.To him, Dean was like a drug he was addicted to. A while back, when he broke the clay mug, he had been quite disheartened. He couldn't help but feel like it was a bad omen. He wanted to stop himself from overthinking it, so he didn't contact Dean for a long time.And when he stopped reaching out to Dean, Dean didn't contact him either.The two of them gave each other the cold shoulder over the Sappic Ocean—oh, wait, that wasn't true. Corbyn shook his head wryly. Dean most likely hadn't noticed that something was off.The cold shoulder wasn't mutual at all.Between him and Dean, he was the only one doing it.Even during the honeymoon phase, it was like he had been the only one infatuated.Like a glass of water, it was always Corbyn who was hot and co

Amanda chuckled softly and said, "Sure. In that case, I'll have to make a trip to Merunica. Since you've been working so hard lately, you should get some rest for the time being and spend time with your boyfriend."When Corbyn heard that, he had a bad feeling. "It would be very troublesome for you to fly back and forth. Since I was the one who caused this trouble, I should put in the effort. Only when we're at our last resort should I make you come all the way here.""Alright, but there's no time to lose. I'll give you a week, and I hope to hear good news afterward," Amanda said.Pearl had listened to the entire call. After it ended, she couldn't stop herself from asking, "Why didn't you let Mandy come?""I suddenly felt like she'd agreed too readily, as if she'd been waiting for me to beg her." Corbyn pondered it. "She was the one who gave me this project, and I ran into an issue, having caused the problem in the first place. If I then asked her for help, and she immediately fle

"You're so naive," Veronica said with a small laugh. "Once you've spent enough time in the business world, you'll learn that it's not a crime if you're not caught.""Fine, then just consider it my ambition!" Corbyn said with a smile. "What's the point of quietly bribing a mere Head of Office? If I really wanted to cough up a huge sum, I would only be satisfied if I'm bribing to the President of the Abraham Exam Board.""Hah, you're just talking big," Veronica said mockingly.Despite that, she didn't force her own thoughts on Corbyn. She seemed eager to see how Corbyn would try solving this matter without spending an exorbitant amount of money within a week.Corbyn spotted a familiar face on banking systems in a café.He should make it clear that when he went to Merunica to study, it hadn't just been because of Dean. He had also made quite a number of friends. Even though Kelvin had looked down on Corbyn's school, it was still a well-reputed school by universal standards and far

Rebecca was also shocked to find Corbyn and Pearl standing outside her condo. "What are you doing here?" she said in a heavy New Jorkian accent.Pearl stepped forward and introduced herself in perfect Yinglish. However, this was pointless because Rebecca recognized them. She said with a disgusted look, "You thieves, don't show up on my doorstep. I'll call the police.""Thieves?" Corbyn arched an eyebrow unhappily. "What exactly did we steal?"Rebecca chuckled coldly. "Your company uses counterfeit teaching materials. Isn't that stealing? How despicable.""Do you have proof that we use counterfeit teaching materials?" Corbyn said. "This never happened. You may be throwing around groundless accusations based on fake news that you heard."In reality, they hadn't gotten caught for purchasing counterfeit teaching materials. Neither the Autumnverst Education Group nor the Abraham Exam Board had concrete evidence to prove it. However, Rebecca didn't need concrete evidence. She just nee
