    As soon as the door opened, Jason’s charming face appeared in front of her.


    Corinne remained calm despite her surprise. “Why are you here?”


    Jason held up a thermos. “To see you, of course! Have you had breakfast? I asked someone to


    prepare some soup for you.”


    “Thanks,” said Corinne and invited him in.


    It was the first time Jason came to Corinne’s ce, and he began admiring the decor as soon as he


    entered the door. “Where’s the kitchen? I’ll get a bowl and pour some for you!”


    “Have a seat. I’ll get it myself.” Corinne walked toward the kitchen rather than pointing him to where it


    was.


    Instead of sitting, Jason followed her into the kitchen with the thermos. The cupboard was situated


    under the sink, so it was a little difficult for Corinne to bend down and get the bowls.


    Jason walked over and helped her. “Let me do it.”


    Corinne stepped aside and allowed him to help her.


    Jason took out a bowl from the cupboard and opened the thermos to pour out some soup for her. He


    ced it on the bar and said, “Drink some while it’s hot!”


    Corinne nodded. She was not too fond of normal breakfast during her pregnancy, preferring instead to


    drink soups. During the time she stayed in Jason’s vi, he instructed the servants there to cook soup


    for her every night.


    The breakfast that Xante prepared for her—warm milk and sandwiches—was not to her taste at all.


    Jason brought the soup to her at just the right time.


    Jason looked warmly at Corinne as she drank her soup. He frowned and remarked, “You didn’t have


    eyebags thest time I saw you. Were you unable to sleep wellst night?”


    Corinne nodded. “Yeah. I had a bit of insomnia.”


    Jason then said earnestly, “You can’t stay upte when you’re nearing your due date. How do you


    expect me to feel at ease when you’re like this?”


    Corinne knew that had to take care of herself better, but her mind was in such a mess that she could


    only toss and turn in bed.


    Needless to say, she was a little ufortable when Jason showed too much concern for her.


    “You don’t need to be so worried about me, Jason. You should be well aware by now that nothing you


    do is going to sway me. It’s not going to make me fall in love with you over time.”


    Jason sighed when he heard that, but he then smiled at her. “Do I look like such a calctive person to


    you? The concern that I show for youes from the bottom of my heart. I’ve never considered


    anything else.”


    Corinne lowered her head and continued to drink her soup. After a moment of silence, she said, “I’m


    very grateful for all the help you have given me, and I’ll treat you as a good friend. Let me know if you


    face any difficulties in the future and I’ll promise you I’ll do my best to help you. Other than that, I can’t


    repay your kindness with feelings. I hope you’ll understand.”


    Jason approached her and said, “Do you have to be that firm on this?”


    Corinne looked up at his charming eyes. “It’s better for me to be harsh than to let you string yourself


    along with false hope.”


    “You still have a long life ahead of you.” Jason moved closer again. “Are you saying you don’t n on


    falling in love again in the future?”


    Corinne felt that he trespassed herfort zone and decided to retreat slightly. “I don’t have the heart


    for that anymore.”
