Chapter 888


    Given Jeremy’s evasive attitude, Corinne did not think it necessarily meant he did not want to get a


    marriage certificate with her before this. However, she was sure he really did not want to register their


    marriage when she heard his response at this very moment.


    The wedding they had was very simple. He invited some of his closest rtives for dinner as a


    symbolic gesture. Even his rtives knew tacitly that Jeremy only held the wedding as a way of


    pacifying his grandfather and that he was not serious about his marriage to Corinne.


    After all, what wealthy, powerful family would hold such a simple wedding like that? Therefore, not


    many outsiders knew Jeremy was actually married. ‘He seems to not want other people to know he’s


    married…’ thought Corinne.

    “Oh,e on, I was joking! There’s no need to look so scared. It’s not as if I want to get a marriage


    certificate with you anyway,” said Corinne with a shrug.


    Jeremy frowned. “Who do you want to get a marriage certificate with if not me?”


    “That’s none of your business. I can get the marriage certificate with whoever I want. I won’t even tell


    you after I get one, either,” said Corinne jokingly before getting into the car.


    Their driver had been slowly following them from behind.


    —


    Jeremy got into the car after Corinne, and the first thing he did in there was to roll down the divider


    between the front and back seats. Then, he pulled Corinne into his arms, held her face with both


    hands) and kissed her fervently as though they had not met for a few years.


    He liked to grab her chin roughly and slowly worked his tongue into her mouth. However, she kept her


    mouth shut tight. She could tell Jeremy liked and desired her, yet he did not want to register their


    marriage!


    Not able to satiate his burning desire, Jeremy started to get impatient. “Be a good girl and open your


    mouth,” he coaxed seductively.


    Corinne frowned and pushed him away. “I’m feeling a little carsick, so let’s not.”


    Jeremy noticed she was indeed a little pale, so even though he did not get what he wanted, he had no


    choice but to give her onest peck on the cheek and stop himself.


    Corinne had eaten too much, which upset her stomach. The first thing she did when she got home was


    to rush into the bathroom to throw up. However, she was not sure whether it was due to motion


    sickness or


    pregnancy.


    Seeing her like this, Jeremy decided to let her rest for the night. However, he could not stop his hands


    from roving around her body while he hugged her to sleep. The hand that fondled her chest became


    more brazen to the point Corinne had to warn him to cut it out.


    “Mister, stop doing that!”


    “Cail me honey,” said Jeremy seductively while nuzzling her neck.


    Corinne did not do as he asked. ‘Why should I when he doesn’t want to get the marriage certificate with


    me?’


    She was still fuming about what happened this afternoon. ‘Is this how all men are? They’ll work harder


    when you’re hard to get, but they won’t cherish you as much when the ‘honeymoon phase’ wears off?


    He


    must be giving himself a way out of the rtionship by not registering our marriage. Breaking up is


    definitely less messy than getting a divorce.’


    Corinne recently found out a lot of things about her mother. She learned that Maxwell pulled out all the


    stops when he courted Emily before. Their rtionship was the envy of everyone who knew them. ‘And


    look what happened after that! It didn’t take that long for Maxwell to fool around outside every night and


    knock up Phoebe! My poor mother is cast aside like a broken doll!’
