Chapter 1104
Lucas red at Jason. “Oh, buzz off. Stay or leave, I don’t care. As long as you keep that big mouth of
yours shut.”
Jason shrugged and pouted. “See, you only talk to me like that! Meanwhile, you always try to please
Corinne and Jeremy.”
Lucas’ gaze turned colder. He picked up his crutches and lifted them to hit Jason.
Seeing this, Jason quickly stood up and said with a shrug, “I’m done eating, so I think I’ll take a walk.
See you guyster!”
After that, he strode out of the room.
Lucas put back his crutches and sighed.
Corinne could tell Lucas and Jason were really, really good friends since they could be themselves
around each other.
Lucas decided to shift his attention to Jeremy since there was nothing he could do about Corinne.
“When did you get back?” he asked him.
“Early this morning,” answered Jeremy as he pulled out a tissue to wipe Joey’s mouth.
Lucas’ face darkened. “Hmph! How can you leave your pregnant wife while you wander abroad?”
Jeremy frowned for a second, but that was the most expression he showed. He did think he was wrong
to leave Corinne behind, but it was not like he had a choice.

“What I’m dealing with abroad is quite tricky and requires my full time and attention. It’s not like I can
attend to her, either. It might even be worse if I brought her with me.”Books Chapters Are Daily

“Then I hope you went there for business instead of something else. I swear to God, I’ll kill you if you
do anything to make Corinne cry.”
“You’re overthinking things, Lucas. Plus, if I remember correctly, Corinne hasn’t epted you as her
brother yet, so why don’t you worry about yourself instead?”
Lucas was speechless. ‘He’s right. I have no right to lecture him either since Corinne still won’t ept
me as her brother.’
Lucas looked helplessly at Corinne, hoping she would pity him, but she would not even look at him.
Instead, she was drinking her soup and would sometimes speak to Joey as though Lucas did not even
exist.
By that point, Joey was full from eating. Coupled with the feeling of safety and security, he started to
feel a little sleepy. Last night, he did not sleep a wink as he was so worried Corinne would leave without
him. He wanted to go check on her, but the fear of getting a beating from Phoebe stopped him. Thus,
he had to fight hard to keep his eyes open after eating.
Seeing this, Corinne—who was quite full herself—reached out her hand and said, “Mister, Joey is tired.
Let me carry him back to his room. That way, you can have your breakfast too.”
“I’m not hungry, so I’ll bring him back to his room. Plus, you need to eat more. Don’t just drink your
soup, okay?” said Jeremy gently.
Jeremy then got up with Joey still in his arms and left the room before Corinne could say anything.
Before he came, Jeremy instructed Tommy to supervise Corinne and make sure she did not eat
anything prepared in the summer vi.
Since he was here, Jeremy instructed Tommy to buy the ingredients from the local market and
supervise the kitchen in cooking the food, so everything was safe for Corinne to eat.
