Chapter 528
‘Forty days ago! That’s about the time Jeremy went on that business trip of his. Meaning to say, he was actually with
Anya and their kid! I guess him calling me every day to make sure I eat, sleep, and miss him didn’t stop him from
having the time to make another kid with Anya!’ thought Corinne.
Corinne suddenly felt like something was stuck in her throat, making her want to throw up. Previously, it was a
biological response but now it was an emotional response. She mentally berated herself for ever trusting Jeremy’s
words. For a moment there, she was looking forward to him coming back so that the two of them could live happily
ever after.
‘He lied straight to my face and like a fool I took it in hook, line, and sinker! What a devious. man he is!’ thought
Corinne and even though all those were going on in her mind, she still managed to maintain a calm facade on her

After giving herself that pep talk, Corinne smiled and said, “Congratulations to both of you. For your sake, I hope it’s
a girl.”
Anya rubbed her belly proudly as happiness filled her face to the point of overflowing.” Corinne, you should know
that Jeremy will only admit the kid in my belly as his, whereas if you’re pregnant. Well, that kid would only end up as
a b*stard. Can you bear to see your kid being called a b*stard all his life?”
Instead of being angry, Corinne chuckled. Miss Anya, I think you’re the one who’s pitiful here since you’re already
given Jeremy two kids but he still hasn’t made you his wife yet.”
“Why you!” Anya’s previously smug face immediately turned as black as thunder. She thought that Corinne would
be saddened to see her pregnancy report, but not only did she not seem surprised but she was happily smiling at
her.
“Mark my words, Corinne Carew. This isn’t over yet!” said Anya between gritted teeth before turning around and
leaving. She knew she was completely beaten by Corinne this round.
Corinne scoffed, not taking her threat to heart. She knew Anya’s only mission in life is to live for Jeremy and would
do anything to keep him by her side to the extent of making false enemies out of Corinne. She was not going to
waste any more time on that kind of woman.
Suddenly, she rushed to the toilet to throw up again because she was still feeling sick to the
stomach. After that, rinsed her mouth and splashed water on her face once more before leaving the restroom.
As soon as she came out, she saw a tall, lanky figure leaning against the wall with a cigarette between his fingers.
‘It’s Jeremy! And he’s smoking again! Would it kill him to stop smoking for a second?’
thought Corinne. She ignored him and walked past him without looking at him to go back to
her table.

“Whose is it?” asked Jeremy coldly when she was walking past him. The question was mixed in with a little whiff of
cigarette smell.
Stunned, Corinne paused in her tracks. She looked sideways at him and asked casually, “Huh? Are you talking to
me, Mister Jeremy?”
Jeremy looked at her. “I don’t see anyone else other than you and me here.”
Corinne pretended to look all around her and said exaggeratedly, “Hey, you’re right! What was your question
again?”
“Spare me the act.
“Mister Jeremy, you couldn’t possibly think I’m pregnant too, do you? Did you know Miss Anya asked me the same
question just now?”
Jeremy looked into her cunning eyes. There was an unmistakable murderous glint in his eyes. “Are you sure you’re
not pregnant?”
