Corinne snorted and said, “I don’t want water. I want bubble tea!”
Jeremy nodded dutifully and looked at Francine. “Go buy her some bubble tea. Quarter sugar and quarter ice. Be
back as soon as you can!”
Francine’s mind went blank for a moment, but she soon realized that Jeremy and Corinne were about to reconcile.
She immediately grinned and said, “On it! I won’t be long! One bubble tea coming right up!” She turned and ran off.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCorinne paid special attention to her diet during her pregnancy and cut down on a lot of sweets. The stimulation
she experienced made her want some bubble tea just so she could calm herself.
Jeremy never looked at Sophia. He focused entirely on Corinne, and his gaze seemed to be cherishing her as if she
were a delicate little gem.
Sophia could not care less what Corinne thought of her, but she was very particular about Jeremy’s opinion of her.
She thus righteously said, “Corinne misunderstood me, and she’s also biased against me. But you know who I am,
and you know that I’m nothing like her accusations!”
Jeremy glanced up slightly and turned to Sophia. Rather than responding to her, he asked coldly, “Have you gotten
a replacement certificate yet?”
Sophia was startled and wanted to avoid the question. “Not yet. The procedure—”
Jeremy was in no mood to listen to her explanation. He interrupted her and said, “I’m grateful that you were willing
to help me with that favor, but you and I signed the agreement knowing that this was simply to deal with my family
and nothing else.
“If you keep delaying the procedure to get a replacement and proceed with revoking our marriage, I would have to
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmgo through legal procedures from the country and sue the court to revoke the certificate. I wouldn’t want to go to
court with a friend, so the ball is in your court.”
Sophia stared blankly at Jeremy. She never expected him to say something so ruthless to her. In the end, she could
no longer pretend anymore and turned on him in anger.
“So you’re just going to get rid of me after using me? I am the only daughter of the dignified Adam Group. I won’t
let you bully me like this, and my father won’t let you do this either! You need to take responsibility for me, or you’ll
have to face my father. You know how powerful he is. I don’t want to stir up any conflict between you two. It’ll break
my heart to watch the two men I care about the most fall out because of me! I won’t be as intolerant of other
women as Corinne is. I’ll do anything for you!”
