Chapter 1189
‘Heh! Sophia is something else, too! She knew I’m the boss’ friend, yet she dared to tell me Mister
Jeremy doesn’t really talk about the boss muchtely. She’s obviously dering doing this to let me
know Mister Jeremy is hers alone,’ thought Xante.
Xante went on to specte that Sophia was hoping she would tell Corinne of their conversation today
so she would know to back off. ‘Haha! These two maniptive b*stard and b*tch are meant for each
other.’
“What makes you think I’ll tell you when Mister Jeremy obviously doesn’t want to tell you? Miss Sophia,
I’m honored that you’ll ask us to join you for lunch, but please bear in mind we’re not really close
enough to talk about a lot of things,” said Xante.
Instead of being offended, Sophia smiled at her. “Miss Xante, I was just curious. Why are you being so
defensive? Could it be that you know where Miss Corinne is hiding now?”
Jeremy suddenly snapped his head up to look at Xante when he heard that.
Xante almost lost her cool. ‘This woman isn’t to be underestimated.’
She pushed up her gold-rimmed sses out of habit and said, “I wish I knew where she is ’cause it’s
been quite a while since west saw her. We’re all really worried about her. I’m guessing she doesn’t
want to show herself ’cause there’s someone she wishes very much to avoid, so we won’t force her to
do so.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…
Sophia pretended to be confused. “She wants to avoid seeing someone? Miss Xante, don’t tell me
you’re referring to Jeremy. Why wouldn’t Miss Corinne want to see him? From what I know, he’s very
good to her.”
Xante smiled. “‘Good’ is a very subjective word in this case. Is sweet-talking to trap another person in a
lie good? If you think that’s good, Miss Sophia, you can keep him all to yourself! Corinne has no need
for a good-for-nothing like him!”
Sophia frowned. “I was right! You must know why Miss Corinne left Jeremy. Otherwise, you wouldn’t
say something like that to defend her!” She turned toward Jeremy. “Did you hear that, Jeremy? Miss
Xante seems to have it in for you. Miss Corinne must beining to her about you all the time.”
Xante gritted her teeth secretly. ‘This woman surely doesn’t let up any opportunity to drive a wedge
between the boss and Mister Jeremy! Wait… I shouldn’t get all worked up over this since the boss
doesn’t care how Mister Jeremy sees her anymore.’
However, she felt difort with the way Jeremy gazed at her.
“Do I have something on my face, Mister Jeremy? Why are you looking at me like that?” she asked with
a breezy smile.

“Do you or do you not know where Corinne is right now?” he asked darkly, frowning.
Xante’s heart skipped a beat because Jeremy was looking at her as though he could see right through
her soul. She told herself she could not let Corinne’s hard work end up in vain just because she could
not keep calm under pressure.
Thus, she squeezed out a smile and said, “I’ve already told you that I don’t know, and neither does
Aaron. We have our men looking for her everywhere, but we still came up empty-handed. I was about
to ask you whether you have any news of her.”
Jeremy’s eyes gradually dimmed. He shook his head apathetically. “No, I don’t.”
Xante scoffed. “Looks like she doesn’t really want to be found, huh? It’s a pity Aaron and I lost her just
because she doesn’t want to see someone.”
Jeremy frowned again.
Sophia’s eyes flickered. “Miss Xante, did Miss Corinnein about Jeremy to you before?”
