Jason looked deeply into Corinne’s eyes. “You and Jeremy aren’t legally married. The

wedding you had was just something you did to appease his grandfather. You didn’t even

invite the important elders to witness the marriage.

“You’re actually helping out with his family when you’re even his legal wife. One day,

they’re going to kick you out of the house once they’ve squeezed every drop of usefulness

out of you. Then, you’ll be left with nothing.”

Corinne finished typing the last word on the document and clicked ‘save’. She yawned

lazily and turned to Jason. “So you think the only reason I’m helping out the Holdens is

because I want a piece of their family fortune?”

Jason shook his head. “Of course, I don’t think that. But you’re going to be sad after they

use you and lose you.”

Corinne obviously did not agree with him. “It doesn’t matter if they’re using me or I’m not

legally married to Jeremy. All I care about is to keep the company running so that I can

give it back to him in one piece once he’s found.”

Jason stared at her in silent shock. ‘I’ve forgotten that she’s not the type of foolish woman

who willingly sacrifices herself without wanting anything in return. She always knows what

she’s doing and her reason for doing it. That’s why she’s not afraid of being used by

others.’

Technically speaking, he would not call Corinne smart for doing that. Then again, her

pureness was what attracted him in the first place.

At that thought, Jason smiled and decided to change the topic. “As long as you know what

you’re doing. Anyway, I’ve come to show my support to you on your first day as president

of Holden Group. Are you free after work? How about dinner together?”

Corinne took a sip of her mineral water and said ruthlessly, “Nope. I’m not free.”

Jason had expected she would turn down his invitation, so he said, “Don’t worry. It’s not

going to be just the two of us. Lucas will be there too. So what do you say?”

“No, thanks. I’m really not free. I need to pick up the kids since I’ve already promised

them I’ll spend some time with them.”

Jason frowned. “Corinne, aren’t you taking on just a little too much? Not only do you have

to run the company, but you have to raise three kids all by yourself too?”

“They actually have a nanny to look after them. It’s just that I’ve promised to take them to

the theme park today,” explained Corinne.

“Oh, I see. That’s good to hear.” Disappointed, Jason decided to change his tactic. “Hey,

it’s been a long time since I saw the kids. Can I join you all at the theme park?”

Corinne threw him a disgusted glance. “Mister Jason, you should really learn how to stop

giving other people something to talk about.”

Jason shrugged nonchalantly. “What do you mean? It’s not like we’re going on a date.

You’re not going to watch three kids by yourself, are you? If I’ve guessed correctly, you’ll

take Francine along with you, right? Corinne, you’d let me go if you really see me as a

friend. Plus, it’s been so long since I’ve been to the theme park. Now, thanks to the kids, I

can relive my childhood memories.”

Corinne was speechless.

Jason winked at her and said, “Think about it. I can be your driver, carry your bags, or

even carry the kids when they’re tired.”

“I already have a driver.”

“So that settles it. I’ll pick you and Francine up after work and then we can all pick up the

kids.”

Not taking no for an answer, Jason got up, waved her goodbye, and walked out of the

office.
