Chapter 904


    Lucas had experienced how stubborn Corinne could be, so he let the matter slide. He then sighed


    tiredly before sharply asking, ‘What did she call you just now?”


    Edmund was intimidated by Lucas’ stare. ’Umm… She called me Edmund as usual…”


    “Hmph!”


    Anya knew there was a surveince camera inside the elevator, so she reminded herself to tread


    cautiously to avoid leaving any dirt for Lucas to hold over her head.


    Thus, she refrained from saying anything to Corinne while in the elevator, but as soon as they got out


    of the building and into the car, she said snarkily, “Corinne, you’re really good at having men wrapped


    around your little finger, huh? Even Lucas can’t escape that fate.”


    “You tter me,” said Corinne without bothering to look at her. She then yawned before saying to the


    driver, “Mister, can you please drop me off at the Holdens’ first?”


    Anya red at Corinne vehemently. She hated how nonchnt she was being. “Corinne, if I’ve


    guessed correctly, you and Jeremy haven’t registered your marriage yet, right?” she asked with a scoff.


    Corinne’s sleepy eyes suddenly widened. She narrowed her eyes and frowned at Anya.


    Judging by Corinne’s response, Anya knew she was right. She smiled mysteriously and continued, “I


    knew Jeremy would never get legally married to you. Oh, Corinne. So what if you’ve moved in with


    him? without the marriage certificate, you’re just a fake Missus Holden, and I’m pretty sure it won’t be


    long until you’re kicked out of the house.”


    Anya’s words aroused Corinne’s suspicion. “Oh? How did you know he’ll never get legally married to


    me?” she asked seriously.


    Anya looked n at Corinne in disgust. “The Holdens will never ept a girl with a background like yours


    as a Missus Holden. Prominent and wealthy families like ours are all about marrying their sons and


    daughters off to partners who have simr backgrounds.


    “Yes, it’s true Jeremy really likes you now, but just how long will thatst? A year? Two years? There


    wille a day when he’s bored of you. You must think your position is secure just because you’re


    carrying his baby, right? Tsk, tsk, tsk. How wrong you are.


    “You do know he could kick you out of the house and keep the baby in the family, right? He could marry


    some rich heiress to be his wife and the baby’s mother. But of course, there’s another important reason


    why Jeremy won’t get legally married to you.”


    Corinne raised her eyebrow. “And what might that be?”


    She was confident Jeremy was not the type to care about his partner’s background, but something


    suspicious was definitely going on since he would be evasive whenever she brought up getting a


    marriage certificate.


    Anya smiled smugly. It was rare for her to have Corinne’s full attention.” Corinne, seems like you don’t


    really know Jeremy that well at all. Here I thought he sees you as the most important person in his life,


    but he doesn’t even tell you everything. Why, it doesn’t even look like you know as much as me!”


    Corinne was not in the mood topete with Anya about who knew Jeremy better. Instead, she


    frowned and asked, “So what’s the important reason?”


    Anya was going to drag this out for as long as she could. That was the only way to make her happy.


    “You want to know? Well, I’m not going to tell you. You should go ask Jeremy instead. But I don’t think


    he’ll tell you.”

    Corinne knew Anya was not going to tell her no matter how much she asked, so she just gave up. She


    turned her face away and closed her eyes to take a short nap.


    By the time she reached home, it was already past two o’clock in the afternoon.
