After Corinne woke up, she came out to see Tommy standing straight at the door.

“Tommy, you can let your guard down a little. Miss Phoebe isn’t stupid enough to do anything to me for the time

being,” she said while massaging her temples.

“Ma’am, it’s better to be safe than sorry. Miss Phoebe always looks like she wants to strangle you,” said Tommy with

a frown.

Corinne smiled. “As if she could ever do that.”

Tommy sighed. “Ma’am, are you sure you want to stay here? Honestly speaking, Mister Joey looks fine to me. Why

don’t you wait until Mister Jeremy is back? The two of you can pick Mister Joey up together afterward.”

Corinne could not help but feel her heart ache whenever she thought of poor Joey.

“You can’t possibly think he’s being treated well here. He might not be Jeremy’s biological son, but that doesn’t

mean I can just abandon him here! The moment Jeremy adopted him is the moment he committed to taking care

of him, for better or for worse. Plus, I’m pretty sure Jeremy won’t sit by and do nothing if he saw how scared Joey

was of Phoebe.”

Tommy opened his mouth to say something but decided against it. ‘She’s right. Mister Jeremy won’t sit by and do

nothing. He has a very strong sense of responsibility. If not, he wouldn’t have let Miss Anya use him for so many

years to pay her back for saving his life.’

Corinne waved her hand dismissively, signaling to Tommy that was the end of the discussion. “You can go back to

New Capital City if you have something else to do. I can handle everything here myself.”

Tommy would never leave Corinne alone. He shook his head and said, “Don’t worry, Ma’am. I don’t have anything

waiting for me back in the city, so it’s no problem for me to stay here with you.”

Corinne knew nothing she said would make Tommy leave, so she rubbed her belly and said, “I’m starving. Get the

kitchen to make something for me to eat.”

“Ma’am, it’s fine if you want to stay here, but it’s best not to eat anything made by the servants here. What if Miss

Phoebe decides to poison your food as revenge?” said Tommy warily. “It’ll be disastrous if you eat the food. We’re in

the mountains where the good hospitals are miles away, so it’s best not to eat the food here.”

Even though Corinne knew Tommy’s worry was not unfounded, she still was not happy about his suggestion. “So

you’d rather I starve?”

Tommy waved his hand. “No. I can bring you out to eat if you’re hungry. The local government is trying to develop

this area into a tourist destination, so there are some nice homestays nearby where you can dine in.”

Corinne frowned. “And you’re not worried I’ll eat something I shouldn’t have in the homestays?”

Tommy smiled. “Well, dining there is a much safer option compared to dining here. But, the best option is to go

back home. If not, Mister Greg and Miss Pamela will be worried about you.”

Corinne went back into her room to put on a jacket. “Cut the crap and bring me to the homestay now. As for

Grandpa Greg and Grandma Pamela, I’ll call them later to explain everything.”

Tommy nodded helplessly. “Yes, Ma’am.”

Corinne wanted to bring Joey with her to dine at the homestay too, but she did not even need to ask Phoebe to

know she would never let Joey step out of the villa. Thus, Corinne quickly gave up on the thought.

Tommy drove her to the best homestay in the area. After they made their order, he went to the kitchen to

supervise the whole cooking process.

‘He’s taking the whole caution thing a bit too far, isn’t he?’ thought Corinne with a frown.

At that moment, someone pulled out the chair across from her.

Corinne looked up in a daze and saw a familiar, devilishly handsome face.

“What a coincidence seeing you here, Corinne. Are you here for a holiday too?” greeted Jason.
