Xante’s eyes darkened, but she then smirked. “So what if she did?”
Sophia, with her chin resting in her hand, fluttered her eyelashes at Xante. “What did she complain about? Let’s see
if what she said is true. My guess is that I’ll probably agree with her about most things.”
Xante scoffed. “Miss Sophia, I really don’t think we’re close enough to have this kind of girl talk.”
Sophia shrugged. She looked disappointed, but she did not ask any more questions.
Surprisingly, Jeremy did. “What did she say about me?”
Xante was a little taken aback. She turned toward Jeremy, her gold-rimmed glasses glinting, and smiled. “Why
should you care what she said about you?”

Xante chuckled coldly. “She didn’t say anything. I was just joking with Miss Sophia, so just forget about it.”
Jeremy’s face darkened with anger.
Xante continued eating her steak to avoid looking at Jeremy’s gaze.
Sunny could feel the tension in the air and Jeremy’s displeasure at Xante. Even so, he wanted to protect his
girlfriend, so he tried to change the topic.
“Ahem! Jeremy, is there still no news about Corinne?”
“No,” uttered Jeremy coldly. He was so frustrated that he felt like a huge rock was pressing on his chest.
Sunny, too, wanted to know where Corinne was. He knew Lucas was looking for her everywhere as well. From time
to time, Lucas would ask Edmund whether there was any news of her, but the reply was always negative.
“Don’t worry, Jeremy. Corinne probably just needs some time for herself. I’m sure she’ll come back soon enough.”
Jeremy stood up. “Excuse me. I need to go to the restroom.”
Sunny stood up as well. “I need to go too. Let’s go together.”
Jeremy glanced at him and said nothing. Thus, the two of them made their way to the restroom.
After the two men left, Sophia became even more brazen in her questioning. “Miss Xante, if I guessed correctly,
Miss Corinne must’ve left after she found out Jeremy had gotten legally married to me, right?”
Xante, who planned to ignore Sophia for the rest of the meal, was shocked when she heard that. She looked at her
with widened eyes.
Sophia smiled breezily. “If that is her reason, then it’s a pity she left.”

Corinne raised an eyebrow. The more she spent time with Sophia, the more she found her difficult to understand.
“You sound like you really want her to come back. Do you not at all mind that she’s your husband’s mistress?”
Sophia laughed heartily. “Why should I mind? It’s not like doing so would change anything. All men are the same.
They’ll get bored of their own wives and start looking for a side chick. Besides, Jeremy’s not only handsome but rich
and powerful as well. Do you know just how many women are willing to throw themselves at him? If I spend every
minute of my day caring about them, I’d be exhausted to death already. That’s not how I want to live my life! It’s no
fun revolving your life around a guy, you know.”
“Well, you’re open-minded if not anything else.”
Sophia smiled. “I have to be. I don’t care what woman he shacks up with outside as long as he knows to come
home eventually. By the way, can you pass a message to Miss Corinne if you happen to see her? Tell her that I want
to get to know her, and I don’t mind sharing Jeremy with her. I’m sure she and I will be great friends!”
Xante frowned. She had to admit that she never met a woman like Sophia before.
