Chapter 338


    The old man was a little puzzled when he did not get a response, so he asked, “Hello? Why is it so


    quiet on the other end? Can you hear me? Say something, Jeremy!”


    Corine was speechless. What am I supposed to say? Should I tell him that I’m the ‘swine‘ that he spoke


    of and not his darling grandson?


    Just as Corinne was hesitating over how she was supposed to respond to the old man, she suddenly


    heard an olddy’s voiceing from the other end of the phone.


    “Greg, you idiot! Who told you to call Jeremy? Can’t you give it a rest? You’ve just taken your medicine!


    Give me the phone!”


    Corinne then listened as a tussle ensued, and Pam eventually snatched the phone. After taking the


    phone, Pam asked. There’s been lots of news about things back home What’s going on?”


    Pam’s question left Corinne with no choice but to sigh helplessly and exin everything, but before


    she had time to speak, she heard the old woman reprimanding sternly, “Did you forget what I told you


    before I left? I said to take good care of Corinne and be a little nicer to her, but you’re doing the


    complete opposite! How could you let all those people nder her online? What kind of husband are


    you?”


    Corinne was stunned, and even the exnation she so nearly gave was stuck in her throat. The old


    lady believed that she was ndered and sided with her unconditionally at Jeremy’s expense Doesn’t


    she doubt me at all?”


    That being said, she could understand if the olddy doubted her because the two of them did not.


    know each other for too long. However, Corinne was startled and humbled that the olddy would side


    with her so clearly.


    Corinne opened her mouth and said, “It’s me, Grandma.”


    Pam was surprised when she heard Corinne’s voice. “Corinne? It’s you! Wait a minute. Did you


    answer the phone earlier?”


    Yes, Grandma ”


    “So, you heard what that old man said too?”


    “I did Pam then coaxed her a little awkwardly. “Don’t take his words to heart. He’s just an old fool,


    and he doesn’t know the truth of the situation!”


    “Don’t worry, Grandma. I understand.”


    Since Corinne never met the old man, she neither took offense nor took to heart his attitude toward her.


    Pam breathed a sigh of relief and said, “That’s good to hear. I knew you were an understanding


    person!”


    Corinne then asked curiously, “Why don’t you doubt me at all when you saw the news about me?”


    Pam said straightforwardly, “Why should I? Does it make sense for me to believe that the Holdens


    granddaughter–inw is so short of money that she needs to fake an ident with a jalopy to extort


    money? I’m not that easily fooled, unlike a certain old man. The news is all fake!”


    Connneughed. “Haha! You’re a wise woman indeed, Grandma!”

    Pam was happy to receive praise from her granddaughter–inw. “That I am! But honestly, I do


    hope that you’re the kind of girl who likes money!”


    Corinne did not quite understand what Pam meant. “… Huh?”


    Pam then exined worriedly, “Because we’re rich, and Jeremy is even richer. If you like money,


    Jeremy is the right man for you! I’m worried that there’s nothing you like, and you’ll end up disliking


    Jeremy for being a cold, ignorant man…and then you’ll finally dislike our family too…” Corinne was


    amazed that Pam knew her so well and believed in her character.
