“I know,” said Xante with a sigh. “I didn’t expect things to turn out this way either, but he wouldn’t listen to me…

Boss, I know he’s your step-brother. But don’t worry, I’ll never hurt him. I won’t contact him anymore once he gets

sick of me.”

Corinne pinched the bridge of her nose. This was even more headache-inducing than she thought.

“Are you stupid, Xante? You’re the one I’m worried about, not him! He’s young and comes from a rich family, so

he’ll never lack any woman in the future. I’m not worried about him getting hurt! I’m worried about you getting

hurt!”

Xante smiled. “Oh, you’re worrying for nothing, then. Do I really strike you as someone who’d take Mister Sunny

seriously? I’ll probably get tired of him before he does.”

“I really hope that’s the case for your sake,” replied Corinne with a bitter smile.

Everyone would think they had everything under control whenever they started a new relationship, and that they

would not be the ones getting hurt. However, it was always the one who fell later that got hurt the most while the

one who fell first would fall out of love first.

Corinne had lost hope in all matters of romantic love after the ordeal she went through with Jeremy. Thus, she did

not think Xante would be able to untangle herself from Sunny without getting hurt.

Xante was confident she would be able to move on from Sunny whenever she wanted, so she told herself to just

enjoy the moment. What she was worried about was Corinne getting mad at her.

“By the way, Boss, why did you call me? Aren’t you afraid the Holdens would be listening in? Did something urgent

happen?” she asked.

Corinne’s eyes dimmed a little. “No, nothing urgent happened. I just wanted to talk to you. As for the Holdens, well,

there’s no need to hide from them anymore.”

Xante immediately knew something must have happened. “Why not? Did you get busted at the ribbon-cutting

ceremony?”

Corinne shook her head. “No… But after that, Jeremy found out where I’m staying.”

Xante bolted right up. “What? He found out where you’re staying?! Are you okay? Did he do anything to you?”

Corinne sighed. “No, he didn’t. He left without doing anything to me.”

Xante was very relieved to hear that. However, she could not help but feel suspicious. “So he just left? Boss, what

do you think he’s trying to pull? I mean, he searched high and low for you, yet he left without doing anything?”

“I thought it was weird too. The only thing he did was knock on the door, stare at me, then at the furnishings behind

me, and leave! Xante, what do you think is the meaning of that?”

Xante could not fathom it either. “Did he say anything?”

“No. Not a word. He just smiled faintly and left!”

“He smiled?” Xante frowned. The more she thought about it, the weirder the whole thing was to her. “Boss, it might

be the calm before the store. You can’t stay there any longer. Aaron and I will go pick you up later!”

Corinne narrowed her eyes. “The calm before the storm?”

‘That could be it. I am still pregnant with his kid, he won’t dare to do anything to me. He’s just biding his time, and

when the baby is born, he’ll swoop in and steal the baby from me.’

Corinne recalled the dream she had—the one about Jeremy fighting over the baby with her—when she fell asleep in

Jason’s car. ‘Xante’s right! I can’t stay in Jason’s mansion anymore!’

“Xante, it’s getting late. Why don’t you and Aaron come tomorrow morning instead? The fact he didn’t do anything

to me means he’s still waiting for the right moment, so I’m sure I’ll be safe for the night.”

Xante nodded. “Okay. Aaron and I will be there to pick you up first thing in the morning.”

“Alright. See you tomorrow,” said Corinne. After that, she hung up the phone.

“Who are you picking up tomorrow? I want to go, too,” said Sunny as he walked out of the bathroom, toweling dry

his hair. He then laid down beside Xante and rubbed himself against her.

Xante put her phone aside and pushed him away. “No, we’re not doing it again! Plus, you just had your shower, so

leave me alone!” she said with annoyance.

Sunny frowned. “You haven’t answered me yet. Who are you picking up tomorrow?”
