‘Mutual friends? Since when do we have mutual friends?’ wondered Corinne.

“You know what, it’s fine, Miss Sophia. You should hang out with your other guests. I can just walk around by

myself.”

However, Sophia did not want to let her go. “No, that won’t do. You shouldn’t stay on your feet for too long since

you’re pregnant. Come, let’s sit over there and I’ll get the waiter to get you something to eat and drink.”

As much as Corinne did not like Sophia, she thought it would be rude to keep turning her down on her birthday. She

had no choice but to follow her to where she pointed.

Sophia brought her over to the VIP area where three men were already sitting on the sofa.

Zeke, with a glass in his hand, was regaling Gerald and Jason with a funny story but stopped when he saw Sophia

and Corinne coming over.

He narrowed his eyes and said sarcastically, “Well, well! If it isn’t the woman who dumped Jeremy and ran away

with his baby.”

Corinne glanced at him and said nothing.

Gerald was surprised to see her there, too. He gave her a customary nod as a greeting.

As for Jason, he smiled mischievously the moment he saw Corinne.

“Corinne, I trust that you know each other already. Why don’t you take a seat here? I’ll get the waiter to bring you

something to eat,” said Sophia.

Not feeling awkward at the slightest, Corinne sat on an empty sofa.

“Guys, please take care of Corinne for me while I go greet the other guests,” said Sophia with a smile to Zeke and

the others.

Zeke smirked and raised his glass. “Sure thing! This’ll be a perfect opportunity to catch up with each other. After all,

it’s been a while since we last saw you, right, Corinne?”

Corinne continued to ignore him.

“Alright, thanks! I feel so much better knowing you guys will take care of her. I’ll be going over there, then,” said

Sophia. She gave Corinne a parting glance before she left with a smile.

Zeke immediately scooted over to where Corinne was sitting with the glass of wine still in his hand. He narrowed his

eyes at her and asked, “Looks like the baby’s gonna be due soon. Exactly when will you be giving birth?”

Jason planned to sit beside Corinne too but was not as fast as Zeke, so he had no choice but to subtly sit back down.

“Zeke, stop teasing her!”

Zeke looked at him. “I’m just asking her when’s the due date. It’s not like I’m asking her anything rude. Tsk! Why are

you so protective of her?”

Jason simply smiled and said, “It’s everyone’s responsibility to take care of pregnant mothers.”

Zeke chuckled softly. “Oh, please. I think it’ll be more accurate to say that you have a crush on her. You better not

let Jeremy find out, or you’re definitely going to get it!”

Jason continued smiling, but his eyes subtly darkened.

Zeke did not realize he had said something rude, so he turned around and smirked at Corinne. “I’ve really got to

hand it to you, Corinne. I can’t believe you have the guts to dump Jeremy twice!”

Corinne accepted a glass of juice from a waiter. She then stirred the juice with the straw. Raising an eyebrow, she

warned, “Please watch what you’re saying, Mister Zeke. I didn’t dump Jeremy.”

“You didn’t dump him? Then why did you run away in secret?” asked Zeke with great interest.

“I didn’t run away in secret either. I left the mansion in broad daylight.”

“Fine, say you left the mansion in broad daylight, but why? Why did you do that? Why would you throw away your

chance of being the wife of a rich and powerful man?”

Corinne smiled. “What’s so good about being the wife of a rich and powerful man?”

Zeke smiled, too. “What’s good about that? I think it’ll be more accurate to say what’s not good about being the

wife of a rich and powerful man! Do you know how many women want to marry Jeremy?”

Corinne scoffed. “You sound like you want to be his wife too! I’m pretty sure he’ll make your wish come true if you

just tell him. After all, you guys have been friends for so long.”

Zeke’s smile froze. After that, he covered his chest and said, “You must be joking! I’m straight, okay?! No way am I

going to marry him even if he wants to!”
