"I chatted with my friends until late last night, so I decided to just stay over at their place."Jeremy bent down and approached Corinne. "What sort of friend? Are they guys or girls? What are their names? Where do they live?"His barrage of questions offended Corinne, and she could not help but explode in a rage. "Am I not allowed to have friends? Or do you mean to tell me that I'm not allowed to have any privacy when I'm with you? Must I tell you everything in detail? How is this any different from being in prison?"Jeremy froze slightly, and he narrowed his eyes quietly as he looked at her unhappy, dissatisfied little face. He smiled rather than got angry at her, and his thin lips pursed slightly as nearly half his fatigue disappeared in an instant. She seemed to be rather energetic still and had the strength to argue with him.He stared at her in silence for a while, but instead of arguing with her, he asked in a sneering voice, "Where's your phone? You could've called me to i

Jeremy repeated one particular sentence coldly, "You don't care if I sleep with her anywhere outside of the house?"Corinne nodded. "That's right."In that instant, Jeremy's face turned as dark as ink and as cold as the depths of an icy pond. His lips twitched as he let out an unnerving chuckle from the bottom of his throat.Corinne got ready to go to the guest room after finishing her words. She patted Jeremy on the shoulder like he was a friend and said in a teasingly 'concerned' tone, "You were exhausted last night, weren't you? Make sure you have a good rest. Don't overexert your body even though you snagged yourself a beauty!"Jeremy narrowed his eyes. "What did you think I was up to last night?"'I know what I did! Where did you get the nerve to put words in my mouth?'Corinne curled her lips. "Mister, what I'm trying to say is that excessive indulgence can cause premature aging even though you're still strong and energetic now. You need to learn how to control yourself for

Corinne's throat felt a lot better after she drank a lot of water. She leaned against the hospital bed and asked Annie, "Why are you here?"Annie put down the glass before replying, "Uncle Jeremy called me and asked me to rush over to the hospital after buying a set of clean and comfortable innerwear for you. I came as soon as I bought everything."'Inner...wear?' Corinne felt embarrassed as she looked down at herself.She remembered being locked in the bathroom by Jeremy and getting drenched before finally losing consciousness. Although she was wearing a hospital gown, the underwear inside was dry and had been changed."... Who helped me change my underwear?" she asked with a frown.Annie said, "I did. I took off your wet clothes too!"Her answer allowed Corinne to heave a sigh of relief. She no longer felt as embarrassed as before and said, "Oh. That's good!"Annie added, "But he did help at one side since I didn't have the strength to hold you up and put your clothes on at th

Jeremy waited for further instruction from Corinne after hearing what Anya said. He knew that the little girl grew up in the countryside and had a relatively poor relationship with the Carews, but if she wanted to see them, he could grant her that wish."Thanks for your concern, but unfortunately, I don't have family," Corinne answered expressionlessly.Anya was stunned. "What? Umm... I'm sorry, Corinne. I didn't know.""It's no biggie," Corinne smiled and did not seem to mind what Anya said at all. Truth be told, it was better not to have a family rather than have one just like the Carews.Anya felt very moved when Corinne did not get angry at her, so she stepped forward and gently took one of Corinne's gauze-wrapped hands while remarking emotionally, "You have such a good personality, Corinne. We share a pretty odd fate too, considering we were both admitted to the hospital on the day we first meet each other! You can treat me like your sister from now on. Don't hesitate to look

Corinne smacked her lips and said, "There is a cake I made for myself in the refrigerator at home. Could you please ask Tommy to get it for me? I'm craving it a little right now."Jeremy's expression turned cold. "Is that it?"Corinne nodded. "Yeah. That's it."Jeremy's complexion did not seem too pleased, but he gazed deeply at her and said, "If there's anything you want to ask, you can ask now. I'll tell you everything.""Nope." Corinne looked out the window at the sky and yawned tiredly to avoid looking at the man.She had nothing to ask, and since she was not his true wife, it would be annoying if she asked too many questions.Jeremy stared at her nonchalantly, and his jaw gradually tightened. Had it not been for her pitifully swollen little hands, he wished he could just pick her up and give her a good lesson!Her actions irked him, and he had no choice but to suck it up as he massaged his heavy eyebrows.Then, he pulled Corinne's small swollen gauze-wrapped hand and place
