Chapter 1178


    “Quiet down!” roared Jeremy angrily after he came out of his room.


    Francine jumped with fright when she heard Jeremy’s voice. After that, she suddenly realized


    something. “Jeremy, you’re back. Were… Were you also in the room? What were the two of you doing


    in there?”


    Jeremy did not feel the need to exin himself to Francine, so he simply scolded her, “You should be


    sleeping at this hour! Go back to your room now.”


    “No wonder Corinne ran away from home. Anyone would leave a husband like you,” muttered Francine


    under her breath so Jeremy would not hear her. She then red at Sophia before walking off.


    Sophia simply shrugged. “You saw how she treated me, right, Jeremy? That’s why I had no choice but


    to sleep in your room!”


    “Please bear with the situation for at least this one night. I’ll arrange for you to stay at the hotel


    tomorrow, and you won’t have to see her anymore,” said Jeremy glumly.

    “Fine.”


    After that, she went down to the living room to watch the television.


    Jeremy did not really care about Sophia. He only came out to stop the fight between Francine and


    Sophia as he could not stand the shouting.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For

    The moment he went back to his room, he received a call from Tommy. Thinking it was news about


    Corinne, he quickly answered the phone.


    “Sir, we’ve checked all of the immigration records, and there was no record of Miss Corinne leaving the


    city. We always have eyes on all the highways, and there were no signs of her. She must still be in the


    city,” reported Tommy.


    Jeremy’s heart sank. “Continue to look for her! Leave no stones unturned until you find her!”


    “Yes, Sir!”

    Six monthster.


    The new Holden Group building was finallypleted. Thepany would be moving in three days


    later, and there would be a ribbon-cutting ceremony with many reporters in attendance.


    At least, that was the n. There was an unwritten rule in the construction industry that the architect


    who designed the building must participate in the ribbon-cutting ceremony. Otherwise, bad luck would


    befall the building upants and their safety.


    As superstitious as the rule sounded, most of the architects would still choose to join the ribbon-cutting


    ceremony. After all, being photographed with the building they designed would give them a sense of


    achievement.


    Gradually, what started out as a superstition turned into an irrefutable belief to the extent that if the


    architect did not show up to the ribbon-cutting ceremony, he or she was as good as cursing for the


    building upants to fail.


    This went especially for big corporations. All of the buildings they upied were mostly skyscrapers,


    so safety was their utmost concern. Even the shareholders insisted the architect had to be present for


    the ribbon-cutting ceremony.


    Superstition aside, who would not want to make sure their business kicked off with a great start?
