“W—Why is Xante’s phone w—w—with you?”
Corinne felt a headache coming on. “I’ll repeat my question. When did that happen?”
Sunny did not know how to answer her. He was even more afraid of answering her when he remembered Xante’s
warning—he was not to breathe a word of what happened between them to Corinne.
“Oh, Lucas is telling me to do my homework! Talk to you later!” He ended the call swiftly.
Corinne took a deep breath after hearing the dial tone.
Having another problem on her hands was far from ideal. It was bad enough that Aaron got involved with Jeremy’s
niece. Even Xante hooked up with one of the Riveras.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‘It’s one thing after another…’ Corinne lamented.
Early the next morning, Corinne brought Joey downstairs for breakfast as usual. Having taught the boy to eat with a
spoon the day before, he had since picked up the necessary ability and did not even need to be fed at all.
While Corinne was eating some oats, Greg—who never liked her very much and rarely showed any concern for her
—said, “Don’t just eat oats. Have some eggs and sausages too. You need the protein!”
Corinne pursed her lips, smiled, and responded curtly and politely.
She was not touched by his words at all. On the contrary, she felt that every single show of concern from the
Holdens was for the developing fetus in her stomach!
After breakfast, Francine brought Joey to play while Corinne spoke with Pamela.
Greg went to his study after breakfast, leaving only Pamela inside the room.
Corinne knocked on the door and walked in only after getting Pamela’s permission. Pamela had her glasses on
when Corinne came in, and she was busy knitting some baby clothes.
When Corinne came in, Pamela smiled warmly, “Ah, you came at just the right time! What do you think of this little
dress that I made? Isn’t it cute?”
Corinne reciprocated with a smile as well. “It’s adorable! But, you don’t have to go to all that trouble. We can just
buy them next time.”
Pamela shook her head. “It’s no trouble at all! I’m happy just thinking about your baby wearing the clothes I made!
Besides, the clothes I make myself are so much better than buying ready-made ones from the store!”
Corinne smiled, but it was merely a polite smile. She did not feel anything in particular at all.
“Is there something you need from me, Corinne?” Pamela asked, putting down the half-knitted baby clothes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCorinne nodded. “You said yesterday that you’ll bring me out to clear my mind. Does that offer still stand?”
“It most certainly does!” Pamela said. “Is there any place in particular that you’d like to go to, Corinne?”
Corinne sighed and said, “I’m bored at home, so I’d like to go out for a walk. How about we feed the pigeons at the
public park? Will that be alright?”
Pamela took Corinne’s hand and said, “Of course! You don’t have to ask me for permission. You just need to tell me
where you want to go!”
Corinne smiled wryly. “If that’s truly the case, there won’t be so many bodyguards guarding me at the door.”
“Umm, well…” Pamela hesitated.
Corinne finally said, “Well, it’s set then, Grandma. Let’s go for that walk tomorrow morning then. I just checked the
weather forecast, and it’s the perfect weather for a walk tomorrow!”
