Corinne slammed the book shut irritatedly. She could not continue reading anymore.

“How many times do I have to tell you that I’m an adult capable of taking care of myself? I am very responsible

when it comes to my health, so there is no need for you to worry about me.”

Lucas could understand why his sister was so averse to him, but he still found it difficult to set his mind at ease.

For a woman, giving birth was like going through hell and back. It would be too late for him to regret it if something

went wrong. Unfortunately, he knew Corinne would not heed his advice in her present state.

Lucas thought for a moment and offered a compromise. “Fine. You can stay here if you want, but I’ll send someone

here to take care of you tomorrow. I’ll also visit you every day.”

Corinne was thoroughly annoyed. “No thanks!”

“I’ve already decided! If you’re not coming with me, this is how we’ll do it. It’s the only way I can be at ease.” Lucas

did not let Corinne have her way and got up. “Get some rest. I’ll come and check on you again tomorrow. Think

about what I told you. Sooner or later, you’ll have to go home.”

Lucas glanced at her one last time before turning around and leaving the room.

Corinne’s mind was in a complete mess as she stared at Lucas’s figure. She leaned back in exhaustion and stared

at the ceiling after collapsing onto the bed.

After Lucas came out, his expression was no longer as gentle as when he spoke to Corinne. He pulled a long face

and stared sullenly at the dining table.

“Are you going to come out on your own or should I go under there and help you?” he faced the dining table and

asked.

After a second, Sunny crawled out from under the dining table with his hands over his head. “I’m here. Don’t get

mad at me…”

Lucas closed his eyes in disappointment. “Time to go home.”

Sunny nodded obediently and walked out despondently. “Okay.”

After finally getting Sunny out from under the table, Lucas glanced earnestly at Xante and Aaron. “Please take good

care of Corinne for me.”

Aaron smiled. “Of course, Mister Lucas. Don’t worry too much.”

After Lucas nodded in appreciation, he walked away calmly with his disappointing younger brother.

Once the two brothers had left, Annie became even more puzzled, not to mention a little skeptical of the entire

situation. She looked at Aaron in surprise and asked, “Why did Lucas tell you to take good care of Corinne? What

does he have to do with her?”

Aaron smiled. “I wouldn’t know.”

“You don’t?” Annie frowned. “Then why would you agree so casually to his request?”

Aaron shrugged his shoulders. “I did it out of courtesy.”

Something seemed off regardless of how Annie looked at it. She eventually decided to take out her cell phone and

call Jeremy.

The cell phone rang for a long time before it was finally answered. The ambient sound from the other end of the

line sounded a little chaotic.

“Where are you?” Annie asked.

Rather than answering her, Jeremy asked coldly, “Why did you call me?”

Annie pursed her lips. “Well… I’m here with Corinne, and Lucas just came to visit her earlier. His attitude toward her

was a little suspicious. He seems to be very fond of her, and I think he’s up to no good! You need to hurry up and

coax Corinne, or she might be—hello? Hey! Uncle Jeremy!” She heard a dial tone before she could even finish her

sentence.

‘Did he just hang up on me?’ Annie thought. ‘I don’t care if he ignores me, but is he going to ignore Corinne too?

What a jerk!’

Annie’s angry little face made Aaron chuckle. “What’s wrong? Were you given the cold shoulder again?”
