A warm glow of happiness instantly filled Sophia’s face when she looked down at her child.
“Yes, this is my kid. I’ve gotten married, if you haven’t heard. Our son’s name is Benjamin!
Benjamin, be a good boy and say hello to Aunt Corinne.”
Benjamin ignored Sophia as all of his attention was on the balloons the old man was
holding.
Corinne frowned and looked probingly at Sophia. “And may I know who you married?”
Sophia smiled. “You won’t know him even if I told you his name. He’s just an ordinary
person. He grew up abroad and had never even been to this country before we got
married. I don’t think you’ve ever met him.”
Corinne narrowed her eyes. “Is that so?” she asked meaningfully.
Sophia laughed. “Corinne, don’t tell me you think I’ve married Jeremy?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCorinne’s chest tightened at the mention of that name. She kept her eyes trained on
Sophia, but Sophia’s expression told her that she was not hiding anything at all.
Sophia said self-deprecatingly, “I wished I could’ve married Jeremy as well, but he doesn’t
love me at all. He insisted on revoking our marriage so that he could be together with you,
even though I begged him not to. I admit I was distraught then, but I eventually moved on
after some time. I count myself very lucky to have met my current husband after that. He
really loves me, and I can honestly say I’m happily married.”
Corinne found no signs of Sophia lying from her expression. However, she could not shake
the feeling something was not right.
“What’s your husband’s surname?”
“Finnix. Corinne, I know what you’re suspecting, but you’re really overthinking things. I
heard there’s still no lead on Jeremy after all these years, and I do feel bad for you. But
you still got what you wanted, right? I mean, even without him, people still call you Missus
Holden.”
Sophia’s words might sound like a compliment, but they were actually filled with mockery
and contempt.
However, Corinne did not care. Even though she highly suspected Sophia had something
to do with Jeremy’s disappearance, she could not find any evidence to prove it.
Three years ago, she flew to Molomia to look for Jeremy immediately after the twins were
discharged from the hospital.
However, Sophia insisted she did not know where he was. She told her she dropped
Jeremy off at the airport after they revoked their marriage in the city hall, and that was the
last she saw of him.
Moreover, Sophia allowed Corinne to search every corner of Adam Manor, which Corinne
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmdid, but there was no sign of Jeremy at all.
The only lead Corinne had was the airport surveillance footage showing Tommy wheeling
Jeremy into the airport. That was the last anyone saw of them.
In the end, they did not board the plane. It was as if they vanished into thin air.
“By the way, Corinne, what are you doing here?” Sophia asked with a smile.
Corinne snapped out of her flashback. “I’m here to pick up my kids.”
Sophia looked at Jason, who stood beside Corinne, from head to toe before saying coyly,
“Did the two of you come here together? Does that mean the two of you are here to pick
up you two’s kids or…”
Jason smiled and was about to answer her when Corinne said, “They’re my kids. He’s just
passing by.”
Sophia’s smile deepened. “Oh, I actually thought you two were dating.”
