Francine found it odd, too. “Grandma’s right. I can’t, for the life of me, figure out why

you’d stay with the Riveras, Corinne. Not to mention, the way Lucas sucked up to you.

Does he have a crush on you or something? Is he trying to steal you away while you’re

having a fight with Jeremy?”

Alarm bells rang in Pamela’s head when she heard Francine say that. She would never sit

by and do nothing if Lucas was trying to steal Corinne away from Jeremy.

“Is that true, Corinne? Does Lucas really have a crush on you?” she asked.

Corinne’s lips twitched. “Grandma, it isn’t what you think it is. Mister Lucas definitely

doesn’t have a crush on me.”

At that moment, she still did not want to reveal her connection with the Riveras. Her stay

at their house was only a stopgap measure and not because she wanted to accept them

as her family.

With the misunderstanding between her and Jeremy cleared up, she did not want to risk

doing anything that would jeopardize their relationship again. The bad blood between the

Riveras and the Holdens had gone on for generations, and she feared that the Holdens

would stop her from marrying Jeremy if they knew she was a Rivera as well.

Pamela held her hand gently and whispered, “Corinne, you’re too naive. Why would a

grown man suddenly be nice to a girl without a good reason? He either has a crush on you

or he wants to use you. I think it’s best if you go home with me now.”

Corinne knew Pamela was just worried about her, so she said helplessly, “Grandma, it isn’t

what you think it is. Actually, Jeremy was the one who agreed to let me stay here.”

Pamela was a little taken aback. “Jeremy agreed to let you stay here? Why that idiot

grandson of mine! How can he let his wife stay in another man’s house? I would’ve beaten

him half to death if he wasn’t my grandson!”

Corinne chuckled wryly. “The only reason he did that was because he thought I’d be safer

here. He and Lucas had come to an understanding, so don’t you worry too much. Your

fears won’t come true.”

Pamela could tell Corinne had no intention of going home with her, so she sighed and said,

“I see that your mind’s made up, so I’m not going to force you to go home with me. But

please promise me you’ll take care of yourself no matter what. Also, I hope you’ll give

Jeremy one more chance. He really does care about you, and I can guarantee that nothing

is going on between him and Sophia. If you think I’m covering for him, then I’ll—”

Corinne knew Pamela was going to put a curse on herself, so she quickly covered the old

woman’s mouth with her hand. “Grandma, I’ve already forgiven Jeremy. I promise I’ll go

home with him once he’s back from abroad. So don’t worry.”

Pamela’s eyes immediately lit up with happiness. “Really? You’re not lying to me, right,

Corinne? Are you really going to get back together with him?”

Corinne nodded. “Yes, I am.”

“Oh, thank heavens! Now I don’t have to worry so much,” cried Pamela joyfully. “By the

way, does Jeremy know about this?”

Corinne turned bright red. “I…think so?”

‘He should know! I’ve been so worried about him for the past two days that I had to keep

in contact with him no matter what. If I guessed correctly, he must be super smug about

the whole thing,’ thought Corinne.

However, she did not have the luxury to worry about her pride anymore. All she wanted

was for him to come back home safely. She was willing to get back together with him as

long as he did that.

She got to experience what it felt like to suffer pain worse than death when she heard he

was supposedly killed in an explosion. It was only then she found out that her heart was

not hers to control.

There was nothing more important to her in this world than Jeremy’s safety at that

moment.
