Chapter 919
Jeremy’s deep voice came from behind them, followed by the sound of approaching footsteps.
The Carews, Josephine, and her mother turned to look at him. All of them were shocked and awed by
just how handsome he was, especially Sherlyn. This was not the first time she met Jeremy, but her
heart would race whenever she met him.
‘I was so close to marrying him! I would’ve been his wife if it weren’t for Corinne.’ The more she thought
about it, the angrier she became. However, there was nothing she could do then but to watch Jeremy
gracefully sit beside Corinne. 1
Jeremy even picked up Corinne’s coffee and drank it nonchntly. The way he behaved with Corinne
was so intimate that Sherlyn could not help but go green with envy. Even Josephine stared at Jeremy
dazedly.
Out of all the young women there, only Corinne seemed to be unperturbed by Jeremy’s entrance. She
simply nced at him before turning her attention back to Josephine and her mother.
Jeremy narrowed his eyes at the unexpected visitors. “If your only aim is toe here to nder my
wife, there’s still time for you to leave. But if you continue to keep up what you were doing… Well, don’t
me me for what I’m about to do.”
His tone was calm, yet it sounded oppressive and ominous. His words bore deep into everyone’s mind,
sending chills up their spines.
The Carews knew just how protective Jeremy was of Corinne, so they dared not speak a word.
However, that did not stop Sherlyn from staring dreamily at him.
Although Josephine’s mother was cowed by the terrifying aura Jeremy was emitting, she was not about
to give up easily.
“Excuse me, but I take it your Corinne’s current husband?” she asked in mock bravado.
Jeremy nced at her coldly. He did not like how she added the word ‘ current’ in front of ‘husband’. It
was as if she was implying Corinne had other husbands before him.
“Yes, I am. How can I help you?”
Jeremy’s aura was so oppressive that Josephine’s mother shrank back a little. “Mister Jeremy, it’s a
good thing you came. I wasn’t ndering Corinne. I only came here to seek justice for my daughter!
After all, your wife is the reason my daughter lost her chance to get into the best university in the
country.”
Jeremy calmly ced his hand on Corinne’s shoulder to show everyone whose side he was on. “I
heard some of what you said just now. I don’t think it’s unreasonable for Corinne to ask you for proof,
but it seems like you don’t even have that.”
Josephine’s mother started to panic under Jeremy’s crushing gaze. “As I said, the proof is Corinne’s
ss attendance record. She skipped ss almost every day to hang out with some thugs. She didn’t
study hard at all. Was it possible for her to get into University of New Capital City?
“Mister Jeremy, I know it might be hard for you to ept all this, but I’m only telling the truth. Corinne
wasn’t a good girl in high school, and there’s a chance she’s lying to you.”
Jeremy’s eyes darkened as he said emotionlessly, “And as I said, I know better than anyone else
whether she’s a good person or not.”
Josephine’s mother was surprised to learn just how much Jeremy trusted Corinne. However, she was
not about to back down because of that.

After thinking about it, she said, “Mister Jeremy, you must think Corinne was still pure on your first night
with her, right? Well, let me tell you something. The medical field is so technologically advanced now
that some sl*ts can repair their ‘down there’ with surgery to make their husband think they’ve been
chaste all their lives.”
