Corinne woke up to the sight of everyone standing around her and looking at her as
though she was some rare animal.
Feeling terribly weak, as well as stinging pain in her lower body, she found herself unable
to sit up.
“Well done, Corinne. You gave birth to a twin boy and girl!” said Annie, who was sitting by
her bed with tears in her eyes.
‘Twin boy and girl? That can’t be right. I remember I gave birth to triplets…’ thought
Corinne.
Corinne knew she was carrying triplets. It was not the case when she ran away from
Jeremy. Due to the limitations then, she did not go for her usual regular check-ups, so it
was only until she got back to her doctor in New Capital City that she found out she was
carrying triplets.

forehead lovingly.
Corinne was still a little blurry from the pain, causing her to wonder if her memory of being
told she was carrying a triplet by the doctor was all in her imagination. “Where are my
babies? I want to see them…”
Xante walked over and explained, “Boss, the babies needed to be in the incubator for the
time being because they were born prematurely, not to mention it was a twin birth. They
came out only weighing less than eight pounds each. But don’t worry, they’re both very
healthy and are being looked after by nurses who are experienced in taking care of
premature babies.”
Corinne was too weak to question anything else. She thought what Xante said must be
true since she was her friend, so she nodded and said, “Okay. I’m happy as long as they’re
healthy. But do ask the nurse to bring them to me when they’re out of the incubator.”
“Will do, Boss,” said Xante without hesitation.
After that, Corinne instinctively looked at each of the faces around her. She was obviously
looking failed to locate him, she asked in a lost voice, “Where’s Jeremy?”
Everyone fell silent for a minute.
Aaron was the first to break the silence. “He isn’t back yet. Since you gave birth earlier
than expected, it’ll take him some time to get back.”
Annie glanced at him and added, “A…Aaron’s right. Uncle Jeremy isn’t back yet. I’m sure
he’ll rush over here to see you as soon as his plane touches down!”
‘He isn’t back yet?’ thought Corinne with a frown. ‘How is that possible? I clearly
remember seeing him in the delivery room. I even bit his arm!’
Everyone’s face became guilt-ridden when they saw the lost look on Corinne’s face.
Jeremy had secretly snuck out with the first baby and seemingly vanished into thin air
while everyone’s attention was on Corinne. When it was all over, nobody could get him on

They were afraid the news would send Corinne into unnecessary shock, so they had come
to the consensus to hide the news from her. It was best to find out where and why Jeremy
had taken the first baby before telling her the whole story.
‘Could it be that I wanted to see him so much that it gave way to me hallucinating about
him?’ thought Corinne, trying to get to the bottom of it. ‘Jeremy should’ve landed by now,
so why didn’t he come to see me?’
“Corinne, you should rest up. I’ve arranged for my bodyguards to keep watch of the
babies, so don’t worry,” said Lucas in a bid to distract her.
“Where’s my phone?” asked Corinne. She wanted to call Jeremy to tell him she had given
birth to his babies and ask him why he was not there with her. In fact, she would even
throw in a few angry words for good measure.
Lucas frowned and stroked her pale cheeks. “Now, now. It’s not good to look at your phone
when you’re still so weak from giving birth. You need to give your eyes some time to rest,
or they’ll go bad.”
