Chapter 930


    Annie listened to Corinne as though she was receiving the gospel.


    “To be honest, I’m not sure if I’ll be okay with an open rtionship, but I really like him… And I don’t


    wanna give up just yet.


    Corinne, can you teach me how to be okay if the rtionship ends?”


    Corinne sighed. She knew there was no stopping Annie, so she patted her shoulder and said, “You


    shouldn’t be scared of getting


    hurt if you like him that much. Whether you’lle out of the end of a rtionship unscathed depends


    on your nature. I can’t


    teach you that.”


    To be honest, Corinne was not that confident whether she would be okay should Jeremy break up with


    her one day.


    “That’s all I have to say on this matter. You should just follow your heart,” she added. After that, she got


    up so she could go


    outside to give Aaron a scathing phone call. ‘I told him to leave Annie alone, so what the hell is he


    doing proposing to her?! He


    must be trying to piss me off!’

    She walked out of the room and was about to find a quiet ce to call Aaron when she saw a tall,


    handsome figure walking down


    the stairs. She did not need to see his face to know that it was her husband, Jeremy.


    ‘Shouldn’t he be downstairs? Did he juste up? Was he heading up to look for me? That can’t be


    right. He would’ve knocked


    on Annie’s door if he was looking for me. Was he just using the bathroom upstairs?’ thought Corinne.


    Corinne decided not to overthink the whole thing, so she went into the bathroom not far away and


    closed the door to give Aaron


    a call.


    Aaron picked up on the second ring. “What’s up, Boss?” he asked nonchntly.


    Enter title…


    “What the hell were you thinking?” hissed Corinne. “What do you mean, Boss? What are you talking


    about?” he drawledzily. “Don’t y dumb! Why did you propose to Annie?”


    The yfulness in Aaron’s thickened. “Ah. That. It’s been so long since I’ve met such an innocent girl,


    so I thought I’ll ask her to


    marry me to see her reaction.”


    Corinne knew Aaron could not be serious about Annie since he had not been serious about any girl


    ever since his first love


    turned him down. She felt anger welling up inside her, but she kept her voiceposed. “Didn’t I tell


    you to leave her alone? Do


    my words mean nothing to you?”


    What she did not add was Annie, the lovestruck fool she was, might just kill herself if she knew she was


    getting yed.


    Aaron could sense Corinne was livid, so he became serious. “Hey, calm down, boss. Did she really ask


    you for your blessing?”


    “What do you think?” Corinne retorted.


    Aaron was pleasantly surprised. “Wow, it’s been so long since a girl actually believed me!”


    At that moment, Corinne wished she could punch Aaron in the face.


    “Aaron, I warn you. You either take this rtionship seriously or make her hate you forever. But you


    have to do it in a way that


    doesn’t hurt her soul or pride. I’m going to make you pay if anything happens to her!”


    Aaron was jealous. “Boss, why are you threatening me like this? She’s an outsider, isn’t she? Have you


    forgotten she’s Jeremy’s


    niece, not yours? Don’t tell me she’s more important than me to you!”


    Corinne’s tone became calmer after two seconds of silence. “It doesn’t matter whose niece she is. Just


    know that she’s a good


    girl, and I won’t allow you to break her heart. Understood?”


    “Fine. I promise I won’t do anything to her anymore,” said Aaron, giving in.


    Corinne hung up the phone, and she was startled to see the angry expression on her face when she


    looked up at the mirror. ‘It’s


    been so long since I’ve scolded Aaron like that… Is he right? Do I care so much about Annie because


    she’s Jeremy’s niece?


    No… This doesn’t have anything to do with Jeremy.
