Chapter 1301
Corinne’s expression soured. “Who are you calling a pig?”

Jeremy smirked. “Who’s sitting on a swing chair?”
No woman would be happy after being called a chubby pig, and the same went for Corinne. She might
have gained some weight because of her pregnancy, but her arms and legs were still slender. It was
only her face and belly that became rounder.
“You should keep your mouth shut if you can’t hold a conversation like a normal person. Otherwise,
you’ll run the risk of being cursed at.”
Jeremy grinned when he saw how angry she was. “What’s wrong with being a little chubby pig? It’s
adorable.”
Corinne gritted her teeth and shot back unhappily, “Wow, thanks for yourpliment! Well, you’ve
seen me on the swing, right? Is there anything else you want from me? If that’s all, I’ll be hanging up
now.”
Jeremy stroked his chinnguidly. “You should maintain this weight after giving birth.”
Corinne’s anger had hit the roof. “What did I do to piss you off? Do you have to jinx it like that?”
Jeremy sat up straight and got closer to the camera. “I like you this way. The chubbiness feels good to
the touch.”
“Whether or not my chubbiness feels good to the touch is none of your d*mn business! You’re such a
jerk!” Corinne frowned in anger.
Jeremy chuckled in a low voice. “Okay, I won’t tease you anymore. Make sure not to stay in the sun for
too long. Head back into the house when it gets hot.”
“You’re not the boss of me!” Corinne shot back. “I can stay in the sun for as long as I want!”
Jeremy frowned and pretended to be serious. “And be a roast pig?”
Corinne gritted her teeth unhappily. “I swear, if you call me a pig again, I’ll—”
Jeremy did not let himself get too carried away. His gaze softened, and he said in a persuading tone,
“Okay, okay. You’re not a pig, and you’re not fat. Your figure right now is perfect. You were too thin in
the past, like you coulde crashing down if the wind was a little too strong. I like it when you have a
little meat. It makes you look adorable.”
‘Why is he talking to me like that? I’m not a child! I’ve already made myself very clear in the car
yesterday! Why can’t he take the hint? Does he have to keep making all these cheeky statements?’
Corinne scrunched her nose in annoyance.
She felt that she was blushing, so she did not look at the camera as she did not want Jeremy to notice
anything. Jeremy remained silent for quite some time, too. ‘I suppose I can end the call now if he has
nothing else to say?’
Corinne looked at the screen and saw that Jeremy was no longer there. The cell phone was still ced
on the desk, and it was facing his empty office chair.
‘Where is he? Why didn’t he say anything if he wanted to leave? He could’ve just ended the call then!
What a weirdo.’
Corinne was prepared to end the call when she remembered his threat from the previous night. He had
warned her that he would burn the painting if she hung up.
She soon hesitated as she did not want to take a chance with her mother’s painting. After thinking
about it, she decided to put the phone to one side instead of hanging up.
At that moment, Sunny ran over and panted heavily as he opened the umbre. “You were here all
along! I searched everywhere for you!”
Corinne looked at his sweaty face and realized his simple straightforwardness was his charm.
It was not surprising that Xante would fall in love with him. Naive and simple-minded boys like him were
far and few in between. Most of them were rotten, scheming men like Jeremy.
Sunny held up the umbre to shield Corinne from the sun. As soon as he stopped panting, he asked
again, “Can’t I go out for a while at noon? I want to have lunch with Xante…”
Corinne rocked gently on the swing. “What do you like about Xante?”
Sunny was taken aback by the question. It was something he had not yet considered.
