Chapter 429
Aaron and Xante glanced at each other. Both of their hearts went out to Corinne. Since she was little, Corinne never
experienced what it felt like to have the love of a family. Instead, she was sent to the countryside to suffer all kinds
of hardships. They saw with their own eyes the amount of blood, sweat, and tears for Corinne to get to where she
was today.
Seeing Corinne so down, Aaron decided to change to a more cheerful topic. “Boss, let’s go and have fun at the bar
now that you’ve gotten your engagement gifts back.”
‘Drinking in broad daylight? No thanks!’ thought Corinne. She was in no mood to be xo.com fast
updatedrinking so she waved her hands and said, “Aaron, go find out if any grand mansions have been. demolished
in Thalassa in the past twenty years. If there is, find out the original owner of the mansion. Also, send someone to
find out about an ex-student called Em Love in Thalassa University and send me the information once you have it.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAaron could send this was important to her so he asked seriously, “Em Love, is that your mother’s name?”
Corinne nodded. ‘Mister Carew might think my mom has been killed by her enemy but I have a feeling she’s still
alive.”
Xante turned around and pushed up her gold-rimmed spectacles. She then frowned when she saw how pale
Corinne was. “Maybe we should get something to eat first. Look at how skinny she has become!”
Aaron looked at Corinne and nodded in agreement with what Xante said. He then smiled and teasingly said, “Boss,
don’t tell me you have no appetite because you’re missing Mister Jeremy too much. A good meal is a balm for the
soul! It’ll be my treat today so what do
you wanna eat?
Xante side-eyed him. “You’re buying her lunch? Has it ever crossed your mind that you won’t be where you are
today if it wasn’t for her? Why, you wouldn’t even have two pennies to rub together!”
Aaron was not in agreement with her. “That’s why I’m buying her a meal! What’s so wrong. with that?”
Xante was annoyed with him. She pushed up her gold-rimmed spectacles and scoffed. “Let’s go to have some
grilled lamb chops then. The weather’s getting colder and eating lamb can warm us up. The boss has always loved
the fat on the lamb at this time of the year.”
At the mention of grilled lamb chops, Corinne immediately thought of the smell and taste of very well-done grilled
lamb chops. Usually, she would be salivating at the thought but for some reason, she felt sick to the stomach this
time.
Suddenly, she could not control herself anymore. She quickly rolled down the window, poked
her head out, and started retching. After a while, she felt better and popped her head back into the car. While
taking some deep breaths, she noticed both Xante and Aaron were looking at her as if they were wondering
whether she was.
They grew up together so she, of course, knew what they were thinking from the way they were looking at her.
Corinne scrunched up her face and said, “Oh, stop looking at me like that. It’s not what you think I’m just feeling a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlittle queasy in the stomach, that’s all.”
It was obvious Aaron thought she was pregnant. He smiled mischievously and said, “Oh really? Then tell me
something, boss. Have you and Mister Jeremy been using protection all this while?”
Corinne yawned nonchalantly. “There’s no need for that since we sleep in separate bedrooms.”
Aaron drew his brows together. “What? And let all that hotness go to waste? How can you bear to sleep apart from
such a hot guy, boss?”
Xante could not bear to listen to where the conversation was going anymore. She slapped Aaron hard on the arm
and said, “Hey, just whose side are you on? Our boss is the hot one in the relationship, okay? Mister Jeremy should
count himself lucky to have her as his wife!”
“Ouch!” Aaron massaged the spot where Xante slapped him. He then laughed and said, “I guess you’re right.”
Xante rolled her eyes at him and added, “But, to be on the safe side, you should get a pregnancy test at the
drugstore for her.”
Corinne was speechless.
