The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1393

“You’re a grown man. This might not affect your reputation at all, but Sophia’s marriage history might someday

come to light even if you annul the marriage. There would be disdain and criticism from her future spouse and in-

laws! Do you have any idea how much this would affect a young woman’s life? You seem to be taking this very

lightly!”

Adam’s irritation grew as he spoke. He signaled to the men beside him, and they promptly handed him a

professional baseball bat.

Adam gently tapped the baseball bat in his hand and said, “It is my duty as a father to prevent anyone from

mistreating my daughter like this! You mentioned compensating Sophia, right? Very well! I’ll present you with two

options now. The first is to forget about Corinne, have a grand wedding with my daughter, and be responsible for

her for as long as she lives. As for the other option, I’ll allow you to annul your marriage with Sophia if you’re able

to survive a hundred strikes of this baseball bat. The ball is in your court!”

Jeremy glanced at the baseball bat in Adam’s hand. He frowned, but his emotions remained indiscernible.

After observing Jeremy’s silence, Adam sneered and said, “What’s wrong? Can’t make up your mind? You’re a

coward, Jeremy. You’re unwilling to take responsibility for my daughter, and you don’t dare endure a hundred hits

for Corinne.

“Is that all you’ve got going for you? Where did all that big talk about wanting to take responsibility for your wife

and children go? If you don’t have the balls to endure that, you can always choose the option of giving my daughter

a proper wedding. I’ll pretend as if nothing happened and accept you as my son-in-law!

“Oh, and that’s not all! I’ve had people investigate Corinne’s whereabouts. You might have hidden her at the

Riveras for now, but she can’t hide there forever. My people will get to her eventually. At the end of the day, she’ll

have to go to the hospital when her pregnancy comes to term. I’ll bomb the entire hospital if it means I’ll be able to

stop you both from escaping.”

Jeremy was visibly troubled by the threat to Corinne’s safety. He could protect her for a while, but he could not

guarantee being constantly by her side. Having someone keep watch on her around the clock would make her

unhappy as she cherished her freedom very much. If she felt as though she was being controlled, she would almost

certainly find a way to escape.

Jeremy knew that Adam Group was infamous for its unethical business practices, and Adam himself was a shady

character too. They would resort to any means necessary to achieve their aims. Adam was a madman who had no

hesitation in carrying out a hospital bombing, all while ensuring he would have a scapegoat that would allow him to

evade justice.

Jeremy was hesitant not because he feared the 100 strikes. He was primarily concerned that getting injured would

prevent him from returning within three days to keep Corinne company in the delivery room. However, that was but

a minor concern to the issue of her safety.
