Chapter 1133


    ‘No wonder those tools look so familiar! They’re the same as those used in the airport for security


    screening! But…’


    “Bowen, is this necessary? These people and Corinne go way back, so they’re not bad people,” said


    Annie.


    “Miss Annie, we’re just doing our job. Mister Jeremy has left strict orders for us to perform security


    checks on everyone who visits Miss Corinne,” insisted Bowen.


    “Fine,” said Annie with resignation. “Let me ask my friends to see if they can ept it.”


    “Very well,” replied Bowen respectfully.


    ‘This is outrageous. I wonder if Mister Aaron and Miss Xante can ept this kind of treatment…’ Annie


    walked over to them and was about to exin when Aaron said, “It’s okay. We ept the security


    checks.”


    “What? You’re not angry, Mister Aaron?” asked Annie in shock.


    Aaron smiled. “Your uncle did this out of concern for Corinne, so what reason do we have not to ept


    it?”


    “Phew! I’m so d you think that. It didn’t used to be like this, you know. But Uncle Jeremy must’ve


    been really worried about Corinne getting hurt during her pregnancy to do this…” said Annie with some


    embarrassment.


    “It’s okay. Tell them we’ll ept the security check.”


    “Right away, Mister Aaron.”


    After Annie gave Bowen the green light, Bowen asked the servants to perform aprehensive


    security check on Aaron and Xante.


    At the same time, the supplements they bought were declined.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join

    “I’m sorry, Sir, but Mister Jeremy doesn’t allow Miss Corinne to eat anything that isn’t prepared in-


    house. This is done out of consideration for her health so I’ll let her know you’ve bought her some gifts,


    but I’m afraid you won’t be able to give them to her,” said Bowen.


    Aaron smiled. “Understood. I must say, the level of detail Mister Jeremy has in taking care of his wife is


    really something.”


    Bowen did not detect the sarcasm in Aaron’s words, so after the security checks were done, he led


    them inside the mansion.


    The living room was grand and bright, and apart from the servants standing by, there was no one else.


    Bowen invited them to take a seat before saying respectfully, “Please wait here while I get Miss


    Corinne.”


    After that, he went upstairs to get Corinne. It was obvious he did not announce their arrival.


    Five minutester, Corinne walked tiredly down the stairs with a toddler in tow. She was dressed in


    loungewear, and her hair was tied up in a ponytail.


    Corinne looked calm when she saw Aaron and Xante, but she did not meet their gaze.


    Annie stood up and rushed excitedly over to her. “Oh my god, Corinne! The security here is so strict. In


    fact, it’s even stricter than the airport’s! We had to go through security checks before we were allowed


    in. They wouldn’t even let us bring in the supplements we bought for you.”


    Corinne smiled tepidly. “You can thank your Uncle Jeremy for that.”

    Annie chuckled wryly. “I admit, he did go a little overboard. But it’s all done out of consideration for you


    and the baby. He must be worried about you since he’s not by your side.”


    Corinne smiled mockingly and said nothing. She sat on the sofa with Joey and looked absent-mindedly


    at Aaron and Xante. “What are you two doing here?”


    Aaron and Xante were relieved to find Corinne unhurt, but then again, they could not help but feel


    weirded out by the tension in the air.
