Chapter 1216


    “Yeah,” said Corinne simply.


    Annie nudged Jeremy with her elbow. “Uncle Jeremy, did you hear that? She was alone for the past six


    months. Alone!”


    She had hoped Jeremy would not misunderstand Corinne so they could sit and have a civil


    conversation after so long of not seeing each other.


    Jeremy chuckled mockingly. “That’s what she said.”


    Annie did not understand what Jeremy meant. ‘Why did he say that? Are they really breaking up soon?’


    Corinne was visibly irked by Jeremy’sment. ‘Does he think I’m lying?’


    Annie was only trying to lighten the mood, but her attempt at making conversation just seemed to make


    the whole situation even worse. Thus, she decided to be silent.


    …


    Meanwhile, back in Xante’s office.


    Xante had asked someone to bring in some snacks for Sunny to keep him upied she could not sit


    still after her secretary told her Corinne had gotten into Jeremy’s car.Books Chapters Are Daily

    “What?! Where is Jeremy taking her?” she asked in a panicked tone.


    The secretary shook her head. “I don’t know. I only heard them talking about ending things properly.”


    Xante was furious. “How can you let her get into the car without knowing where he’s taking her? And


    why didn’t you follow her?”


    The secretary dropped her head. “Annie and Marcus were in the car too, so there was no extra seat for


    me to sit. Miss Corinne didn’t want me to follow her either.”


    Xante quickly took out her phone to call Corinne.


    Sunny, who was sitting on the sofa eating his snacks, walked over casually when he saw Xante


    panicking. “Xante, why are you so worried? So what if Corinne got into Jeremy’s car? It’s not like she


    got into some bad guy’s car.”


    Xante nced at him angrily. “That Jeremy is as good as a bad guy to her!”


    Sunny disagreed. “I won’tment on how Jeremy treats other people, but he’s really good to


    Corinne. Don’t worry, he’ll never hurt her.”


    Xante chuckled coldly. “Well, that’s where you’re wrong.”


    Sunny looked confused. “How did he hurt her? From what I can tell, Corinne has always been the one


    hurting him. I mean, she did leave him twice without saying a word. No man could ever stand that.”


    Xante red at him. “You should go back to ss instead of annoying me further!”


    Sunny softened his tone a little as he did not want to be kicked out. “Xante, please don’t get angry at


    me. I have nothing to do with this…”


    “Then just be quiet so you won’t cause me any more trouble!”


    Xante walked out of her office and called Corinne, but she did not pick up. Thus, she decided to go


    discuss with Aaron about their next steps.


    The moment she pushed open his office door, she saw Aaron with his head lying dejectedly on the


    table. If she did not know any better, she would have thought he was drunk.


    She walked up to him and knocked on his desk. “Wake up! Boss is in big trouble!”This content is ? N?velDrama.Org.
