Chapter 924
Before Sherlyn left, she saw Jeremy scooping up Corinne in his arms, causing her to nearly explode with jealous
rage. ’It's not fair! Why does that country bumpkin get all the love from someone like Jeremy?! I would've been his
wife if it wasn't for her! Just wait, Corinne! I'm going to make you pay for ruining my life!'
Jeremy carried Corinne up the stairs while Pamela looked at them happily. ’ I've got to hand it to Corinne: She really
whipped Jeremy into shape. I never thought I'd live to see this lovey-dovey side of him."
Francine simply shrugged, so used to it by then. 'Jeremy certainly has changed a lot since he met Corinne.1
At that moment, Greg came in in his wheelchair. When he saw Jeremy carrying Corinne up the stairs, he scoffed.

Hearing this, Pamela threw a warning look at him. "Just what has gotten into you lately?"
"Why did that punk have to marry a wild girl like her? I haven't even been back long, yet look what happened! All
that fuss from her family..." replied Greg angrily.
Pamela frowned. "You were the one who pressured him to get married in the first place! Shouldn't you be happy to
see them happily in love?"
Greg became even more annoyed. "Well, I wouldn't have pressured him to get married if there weren't rumors
going around about his sexuality! I'm old, Pamela, and I can't afford to cross those people anymore. That doesn't
mean he should just marry any girl! Why, she's just a child! Younger than Francine. In fact, I'd be happier if he
stayed with the girl he's legally married to!"
Pamela's expression fell, and she quickly covered his mouth. "Shh, be quiet! Do you not remember what I told you
this afternoon? We mustn't speak of that in front of Corinne."
Greg pulled her hand away and stubbornly said, 'I don't care if she heard me or not! Why should I care about what
she thinks? I'm older than her, so she should respect me instead of the other way around!"
Pamela smacked her forehead as she felt a migraine coming up. "Fine, fine. You should go back to your books now.
Francine, take your grandfather to his study."
Francine nodded and pushed Greg in the direction of his study. She was actually feeling a little conflicted. She knew
Greg did not like the fact that Corinne was so young, but for some reason, she hoped Corinne would stay. In fact,
she was starting to worry Greg would do something to meddle with Jeremy's marriage in the future.
Jeremy placed Corinne on their bed before falling over her like a looming cloud. Corinne knew what he was planning

"Wait. Have you forgotten what I've come up here to do? I need to call Annie first, so get off me."
Jeremy pulled away her hand. "She can wait. I can't."
Corinne frowned. "Mister, don't forget that I'm pregnant. My body really can’t handle all that twisting and turning
you put me through."
Jeremy lowered himself even more so much so she could feel his breath washing over her face. "Who was it that
told me we can still do it as long as I make sure to be gentle?"
Corinne blushed. 'I must be out of my mind to say that to him that night.
But who was I to know he'd want to do this every night?'
