Chapter 921
"So behave yourself a little!" Corinne moved away from Jeremy in annoyance.
However, Jeremy was having none of that. He pulled her back into his arms. Even when Corinne struggled, he
whispered adoringly into her ear," Hey, be a good girl now. I'm going to kiss you in front of everyone if you don't
stop moving."
This made Corinne even more irritated. 'Ugh! This is so embarrassing. How can I ever show my face in front of
Grandma again?' She knew better than anyone that Jeremy never makes empty threats. He might really kiss me in
front of everyone if I don't stop moving...'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe decided to give up the fight and buried her head into Jeremy's chest. This way, she could pretend she was not
there.
Seeing this, Pamela's gaze gradually softened. 'Jeremy must have a firm grasp of her past to trust her so much.
After all, the most precious thing a couple could have is trust in each other,' she thought, more confident in her
thoughts. After that, she mentally berated herself for believing some stranger's words over Corinne's.
Josephine's mother looked at Jeremy in shock. Not only did she not get what she wanted, but she had to witness this
lovey-dovey act in front of her. This caused her to scowl. ’Look at him, cuddling and looking at her adoringly. Did my
words not mean anything to him at all?'
Seeing how helpless Josephine's mother looked, Liliiana worried that their trip would be in vain. She could not stand
to see Corinne living such a blissful life because in her heart, she always felt Corinne had stolen what was rightfully
Sherlyn's.
Thus, she decided to do something about it. "Mister Jeremy, this lady here is known as the most honest person in
our town. She didn't mean to drive a wedge between you and Corinne. In fact, I believe everything she said, so it's
my advice that you be careful around Corinne.”
Jeremy was massaging Corinne's palm. Hearing this, he glanced at Lilliana. "If I remember correctly, you're
Corinne's adopted mother, right?"
Lilliana felt honored that Jeremy still remembered who she was. She nodded happily and said, "Yes, I am. I'm so
glad you remember that.'
Jeremy's eyes turned cold. "As her adopted mother, how can you bring an outsider into my house to slander my
wife like that? In fact, I can't help but think you mustn't have been a very good adopted mother to Corinne while

Li Iliana’s expression changed. "No! That's not how it is. She started it first by being ungrateful... I finally saw her
true colors and thought you should know, too," she quickly explained.
Jeremy took another look at Liliiana's lying face, causing his eyes to turn even colder than before. "Why don't you
just tell me what you all came here for? Just what it is you're trying to achieve by making a scene?" he growled
deeply.
Lilliana dared not say anything else since all of her previous attempts just seemed to make Jeremy even madder.
Thus, she gave Josephine's mother a look and gestured with her chin for her to say something.
Josephine's mother blinked at her a few times before turning to look at Jeremy. "I want Corinne to get my daughter
a cushy job in Holden Group in compensation for her causing my daughter to lose out on her chance in attending
university. I want her to give back my daughter's bright future!"
