The situation was getting tense, and Joey could not sit still any longer. He tried to open the car door, only to realize that Corinne had locked it.Thus, he could only roll down the window, leaned out, and shouted, "Mommy… Mommy! I'll apologize to them. Please don't fight with them! There are too many of them! I'll apologize..."While she braced herself to face the challenge, Corinne softened at the sound of her son's voice. She turned toward Joey and sternly said, "No, you're not going to apologize! I told you to never apologize for something you didn't do! Now roll the window back up and take good care of Bryan and Christine!"Joey's eyes reddened; he did not want to see Corinne getting bullied.Bryan and Christine, too, grew anxious. They wanted to get out of the car to protect Corinne with Joey!Unfortunately, one of the robust women grabbed Corinne's hair while she was distracted."Mommy! No! Don't hurt my mommy!" shouted the three kids in unison.Corinne quickly reacted a

Joey and Bryan knew Jeremy as their father, so as Jeremy beat up Terry, the two boys watched in a mix of astonishment and excitement, occasionally letting out a cheer.As for Christine, it was her first time meeting Jeremy. Even so, she watched him with a blend of admiration and curiosity.Corinne, however, watched in her usual calm demeanor. She yawned lazily, thinking that Jeremy was taking too long.When Terry was left crawling on the ground and unable to get up, Jeremy finally felt a sting in his fists. He pulled a handkerchief from his chest pocket and wiped his hands before disdainfully tossing it onto the man on the ground."The name is Holden, Jeremy Holden. Feel free to find me anytime if you want to have another go with me."Terry's eyes widened in horror when he heard the name.'What! Jeremy Holden?! So that woman is his wife? No wonder I couldn't find anything on them. This explains everything! Oh crap, I messed up this time. I should count my blessings that he didn't

Corinne quietly brought the kids upstairs to give Jeremy and his grandparents some space.Once back in their room, Corinne sat on the sofa.Christine walked up to her and asked, "Mommy, is that man my daddy?"Corinne looked at her and nodded. "Yup. Do you like him?"Christine frowned in consternation. "I don't know 'cause I don't know him. Though, if you like him, then I like him, too."Corinne raised an eyebrow. "Do you think I like him?"Christine nodded. "Yeah! I think you really like him."Corinne was a little stunned. She pulled her little daughter into her arms and rubbed her cheek against hers. "What makes you think I really like him?""Because you let him kiss him! You wouldn't have done that if you didn't like him," answered Christine with shiny eyes."Oh… So you did see us kissing," said Corinne with a dejected air."Hehe! I wasn't the only one who saw it. Joey and Bryan saw it as well!"Corinne pinched the bridge of her nose. 'D*mn it! They're never going to take

'I've changed so much for him, so why does he still hate me? Why does he still treat me so coldly? What did I do wrong? I'm just as good, if not better, than Corinne! Why? Why? Why?!' thought Sophia bitterly.She used to firmly believe she would be able to make Jeremy fall in love with her if given enough time. However, reality proved her wrong. He was never going to fall in love with her, no matter what she did or how long they had been together.Even so, she refused to let him go. She was not going to let all of the effort of stealing him and the three years making him fall in love with her be wasted.Most importantly, she did not believe any man in the world was better than Jeremy. Only he was worthy enough of being her husband.With a stomach full of anger, resentment, and stubbornness, Sophia drove to the bar and drank until she passed out. In the end, Adam's men had to carry her back to the hotel.She had a splitting headache when she woke up. She looked at the time and real

Meanwhile, back in the Holdens' estate.Jeremy and Corinne had a long talk in the study, and she was able to ask him everything she wanted.She wanted to get up from his lap, but he kept his arms tightly wrapped around her. He then leaned in for a kiss.Corinne turned her face away and poked his chest. "You better take a shower first."Jeremy narrowed his eyes. "You want me to take a shower? Why? What are you planning to do to me?"Speechless, Corinne rolled her eyes at him. "I can ask you the same thing! I asked you to take a shower because I don't like another woman's smell on you!"Jeremy dropped his head down and said in mock sadness, "I'm very clean. Even though I've forgotten you for a while, I never did anything with Sophia. You'll never find her scent on me…"Corinne frowned. "I'm talking about the smell of softener on your clothes! I don't like it 'cause it reminds me that she did your laundry!"Taken aback Jeremy looked down at his own clothes. Indeed, Sophia was the
