Chapter 1035


    Lucas was afraid it would cause Corinne a lot of trouble if Pam and Greg were to find out who she


    was. He failed to protect her before, so this time, he vowed to protect her at all costs.


    Meanwhile, in one of the high-end private hospital wards, Pam was sleeping under the sedative’s


    influence. She was frowning in her sleep as though she was having a nightmare.


    Greg was sitting in his wheelchair by the bed, looking at her worriedly. He knew his wife would ask


    about Corinne the moment she woke up, so it was best to let her sleep as long as she could.


    ‘Poor Corinne. Gone at such a young age…’ he thought with a sigh.


    “Hey, Grandpa Greg. How’s Grandma Pam doing?” asked Corinne from behind him.


    At that moment, Greg was so focused on Pam that he did not recognize the voice to be Corinne’s.


    Instead, he thought it was Francine who was asking.


    “It’ll take her some time to wake up,” he replied as he turned around.


    He immediately jumped in fright when he saw who was standing behind him, so much so that he lost


    control of his wheelchair and it crashed backward.


    ‘Oh my god, it’s Corinne!’


    Corinne was dressed in a blue-striped hospital gown. Other than her bandaged head and pale face,


    she looked rather healthy.


    ‘Has… Has shee back as a ghost to haunt me?’


    Seeing the fear in Greg’s eyes, Corinne quickly said, “Don’t be scared, Grandpa Greg. I’m not a ghost.

    Realizing that he had lost hisposure, Greg frowned and huffed, “What the hell is wrong with you?”

    Francine walked out from behind Corinne. “Grandpa, Corinne only pretended to be dead, but she had a


    good reason for doing that! Anyway, it’s a long story. I’ll slowly exin it to you and Grandma after we


    get home. Just know that Corinne didn’t mean to scare you two like that.”


    Greg looked at Francine, and then at Corinne. After calming down a little, he scoffed and muttered,


    “Hmph! Not a peaceful day has gone by since that little troublemaker married into the family…”


    Corinne smiled. “Sorry for worrying you, Grandpa Greg.”


    Greg was stunned, but he lifted his stubbled chin proudly and turned his face away. “Don’t tter


    yourself. I wasn’t worried about you! I was worried about my wife!”


    Corinne could not help but feel a little guilty when she looked at Pam, who was frowning in her


    sleep. She walked over and held the old woman’s hand.


    “Grandma Pam, it’s me, Corinne. I’m alive… Don’t worry anymore, okay?”


    Pam must have heard her as she slowly opened her eyes to look at her.


    “Corinne? Is that really you? I thought…” Her voice started to fade as tears pooled in her eyes.


    Corinne sat by the bed to let Pam take a good look at her. “It’s really me, Grandma Pam. I’m


    okay…”


    Pam clutched Corinne’s hand tightly, and relief washed over her when she felt the warmthing


    off her skin. However, her relief did notst long as she suddenly remembered something.


    “What about the baby in your womb?”


    “The baby’s fine, too. We’re both fine, so don’t worry, okay?”


    It was only then Pam allowed herself to fully rx. Still holding Corinne’s hand, she tried to sit up.
