Chapter 660


    Looking at her dumbfounded expression, Jeremy squinted his eyes and coldly snorted, “Don’t you still


    know what you misunderstood?”


    Corinne regained her senses and looked at him. “Tell me, what did I misunderstand about you?”


    The man did not speak but took out a file from the storage bag on the back of the front seat and


    handed it to her.


    What is this again?


    Corinne raised an eyebrow in confusion and reached out to take the file. Inside, she found a document


    filled with characters resembling tadpoles, a foreignnguage she happened to understand. The title


    read’ Adoption Agreement’, and the small print below revolved around adoption-rted content.


    In the upper left corner of the document was a 2-inch passport photo, and the boy in the photo was the


    same child Anya carried around before.


    It was an adoption?


    Corinne furrowed her brow, raised her head, and looked at Jeremy with doubt. “If it’s just an adopted


    child, why did I hear that child call you ‘Daddy’ so naturally?”


    The man supported his forehead with one hand. “That child was adopted from abroad. He’s young and


    doesn’t speak much, and he doesn’t understand English. So when he first came, he could only say


    “Daddy’ and ‘Mommy’ to everyone.”


    Corinne thought for a moment. “Is that so? So Jeremy and Anya don’t have a child, and there’s nothing


    else?”


    The man nced at her sideways. “Even if you saw a situation that confused you, didn’t you think


    about asking me what’s going on? You didn’t give anyone a chance to exin and just left casually!


    Miss Corinne, do you think this is the right way to handle things?”


    Corinne became a little annoyed and red at him. “Who said I didn’t ask? At that time, I wanted to


    ask. you! I even called you, but you lied to me and said you were still abroad! If you weren’t feeling


    guilty, why did you lie back then?”


    Jeremy hesitated slightly, and a fleeting hint of vulnerability crossed his handsome andposed face.


    The man felt guilty, so he straightened his posture and cleared his throat. ‘I’m sorry, it was my fault. I


    intended to exin the whole situation to you face to face because I was afraid I couldn’t rify things


    over the phone, and I didn’t want you to get angry.”


    Corinne sneered, “Lies are still lies, and now you’re emphasizing reasons as if you’re afraid I’ll get


    mad? The way you put it, it sounds like everything is my fault, and you’re acting all wrong!”


    Although Jeremy exuded a strong presence, he could not argue with her.


    “You’re not wrong. I am. It’s my fault!” The man gently lifted her under his arms and pulled her close,


    cing her on hisp.


    Corinne wrinkled her nose in disdain. “What are you doing? Mister, let me warn you! We have no


    rtionship now, and you better show me some respect!”


    Instead, the man tightened his grip around her waist. “You stubborn girl, can’t I be a little aggrieved?


    You heartless little thing, you just left without saying anything, abandoning me alone. You don’t want


    this old man anymore!”


    “I didn’t run away. After our coboration ended, I left reasonably!” Corinne struggled against the man


    like an uncooperative child, using all her strength to break free from his grasp.


    However, her efforts were futile against the physically dominant man.


    The man’srge hand cupped the back of her head, gently but firmly pressing it against his shoulder,


    making her behave.

    At the same time, his deep and maic voice coaxed her. “Be good and listen to me first. I know I


    was wrong; it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have gone to adopt a child with Anya without informing you in


    advance. It caused a misunderstanding, and I was in the wrong


    Upon hearing his sincere apology and exnation, Corinne paused, ceasing her strong resistance and


    bing quiet.
