Chapter 1267


    Sophia noticed Jeremy’s attention was not really on her. After thinking about it, she said, “By the way, if


    possible, can you please invite Miss Corinne too? We didn’t really start off on the right foot during our


    first meeting, but I’d still like to be friends with her. Can you please ask her for me?”


    At the mention of Corinne’s name, Jeremy turned to look at her. “Why do you want to be friends with


    her that much?”


    Sophia grinned and said, “We’re friends, Jeremy, so I should be friends with your wife too, no? That


    way, we can hang out together.”


    Jeremy narrowed his eyes. “Probably only you’d think that.”


    Sophia blinked innocently. “Huh? What do you mean? Don’t you think Miss Corinne would think the


    same?”


    Jeremy nced at Sophia’s bandaged forehead. “She wouldn’t have bashed your head onto the


    counter if she thought the same as you.”


    Sophia touched the bandage on her forehead. “Oh, you mean this! I would’ve forgotten about it if you


    hadn’t brought it up. Jeremy, I don’t care about what happened yesterday. I think I get where she’s


    coming from. I mean, yes, we two are friends, but what woman wouldn’t get jealous if she saw her


    husband hanging out with another woman? So it’s okay. I’m willing to turn the page and be friends with


    Miss Corinne.”


    ‘She thinks Corinne did it out of jealousy? Heh!’ Jeremy did not think Corinne would ever hurt another


    woman for him. He thought she did it because she was simply angry. ‘No one in this world can make


    her jealous!’


    Sophia thought she should leave because she knew staying any longer would just annoy Jeremy. It


    was important for her to know when to pull back.


    Thus, she stood up and said, “Well, I’ll be off them so that you can get back to your work. Don’t forget


    to eat the fruits. You need to take care of yourself well. And don’t forget my birthday party either!”


    Jeremy nodded but he did not get up to see her off. His gaze fell on the cut fruits after Sophia left.


    ‘Corinne would never miss me nor would she ever bring cut fruits to my office. D*mn that self-centered


    little rascal!’


    …


    Corinne kept sneezing. She then rubbed her nose and said to herself, “Who’s smack-talking me now?”


    Aaron knocked on her door before he came in. “Boss, I heard you sneezing just now. Are you getting a


    cold?”


    He then touched her forehead and sighed with relief after confirming she was not having a fever.


    “I’m fine. You should head back to work now. It’s not fair to leave Xante with all the work while you do


    nothing. She’s still a woman no matter how capable she is,” lectured Corinne with a wave of her hand.


    Aaron shrugged. “But I’m too sad to go to work today.”


    “You’re sad? Why? Or should I ask who made you sad?” asked Corinne with a raised eyebrow.


    Aaron sat down beside her and rested his head on her shoulder like a kid. “It’s Annie. She’s ignoring


    me, and…”


    Corinne’s lips twitched. “Well, she’s right to ignore you! I mean, why should she waste her time on a


    yer like you?”This content is ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Aaron scoffed. “Boss, I don’t care what other people say about me, but how can you misunderstand


    me, too? I’m a very loyal and loving person underneath my yer persona.”


    Corinne got goosebumps all over her body.
