Chapter 1843 As soon as he looked up, he saw a rare display of emotion on Corinne's usually resilient visage. He felt his heart ache and immediately stood up to wipe her tears away. "Why are you crying? I'm fine. It doesn't hurt. Stop crying, okay? You wouldn't want your mother to disapprove ofas her son-in-law if she sees that I've made you cry." Corinne failed to control her tears and said in between sobs, "How can you say that it doesn't hurt? An injury like this is going to be painful..." Jeremy hugged her. ' Well, it does hurt a little, but it won't hurt anymore because you're with me. My mood has improved so much with you around." Corinne pouted and placed his injured arm down as she urged him to stop moving. "You and your sweet-talking! From now on, you'll have to listen to everything I say and make sure your dressing is changed on time!" Jeremy responded obediently. "Yes, honey. Please stop crying, and helpleave a good impression on your mother." Corinne raised her arms and wiped away her tears before complaining," What sort of good impression did you think you were going to make when you suddenly announced to her that you were excusing yourself?!" Jeremy pinched her little nose and asked, "Isn't that your fault?" "How is it my fault?" Corinne frowned. "Don't try to put the blon me! I didn't tell you to excuse yourself, did 1?" Jeremy argued, "But you didn't tellin advance that we were going to meet your mother! It'd be rude to meet her without having any gifts! I went out to make a phone call and ask someone to prepare them for me. I was hoping I'd leave a better impression after that!" Corinne blinked, and her tear-filled eyes were particularly adorable. Despite feeling slightly awkward, she scoffed at him and asked, "Where are the gifts, then?' Jeremy sighed. 'I haven't had the tto get them yet because Sophia got in my way. Shall we go together now?" Corinne nodded. Jeremy then held her hand and brought her to retrieve the gifts he had planned to give Corinne's mother.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJeremy's subordinates had already prepared them and were waiting in the hospital lobby for him. They were unable to reach his phone, so they decided to just wait there.
As soon as they saw Jeremy and Corinne coming out from the elevator, one of them quickly cover and handed over the gifts. He also explained the benefits of the supplements he had gotten as well as their intended effects, all in the hopes that Jeremy would be able to leave a good impression on Corinne's mother.
In the meantime, Corinne received a call from Lucas, which she answered after moving to one side.
"Corinne, where are you?" Lucas asked, his tone betraying his anxiety.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCorinne replied, "I think you know the answer to that." Lucas's prompt call following Sophia's attempted attack was an indication that the news had reached him through the grapevine.
Corinne was not surprised, nor did m she suspect Lucas of arranging someone to monitox her. If Lucas's men were there, Sophia would have been stopped before she could put Corinne in any danger.
The only plausible explanation was that Lucas knew speople at the police station, and they promptly relayed the information to him after realizing that Corinne was the one who called the police. Lucas did not try to beat around the bush anymore and asked, "Are you okay? Can I head there and check if you're alright?" Corinne assured him. "I'm not hurt. You don't have to go through all the trouble of coming here."
Lucas was frustrated and chastised, "Isn't Jeremy with you right now? Why is it so hard for him to do a good job of protecting you? He's useless!" Corinne retorted unhappily, "Don't say that about him! It's not like you could've done anything either!" X
