Jeremy frowned when he saw the name on the screen but answered the call nonetheless.

“Jeremy, where are you?” Anya asked anxiously from the other end of the phone.

“I’m at Lunar Century Manor.”

“Oh… What are you doing there?” asked Anya awkwardly.

Instead of answering her question, Jeremy asked, “Why are you calling me?”

“Umm… Joey has been puking and crying for you. I know you must be in the middle of something, but can you

please come see him for a while? He really needs you right now,” said Anya pitifully.

Jeremy glanced at Corinne before asking, “What did the doctor say?”

“The doctor said Joey’s physically fine. The puking is a normal side-effect of brain concussion …but I’m more

worried about him getting traumatized by what happened. Joey really needs his daddy to comfort him right now.”

Jeremy fell silent, so silent that Corinne said to him, “You can go to them if you want.”

She did not need to hear their conversation to guess that it was Anya on the other side of the phone. It was always

the same old story Anya called him to tell him ‘Joey needed his daddy right now, so can he come and spend time

with them?

Jeremy immediately hung up when he heard what Corinne said. He cocked his head at her and brought the dessert

to her mouth. “Don’t worry. I’m not going anywhere today.”

Corinne was surprised to hear that. After all, Jeremy always rushed off the moment he received a call from his

savior. It was certainly rare for him to be able to resist Anya’s emotional blackmailing.

Corinne took a huge bite out of the dessert and was about to take another bite because of how delicious it was

when Jeremy pulled his hand away. “This is too sweet. You shouldn’t eat that much.”

“One piece is not too much! Give it to me,” said Corinne, frowning.

“No.” Jeremy quickly ate the dessert so that he could free his hands to hold down Corinne’s grappling hands,

earning her pout.

Seeing this, Lucas passed her another dessert from the table. “There’s still many left. I can ask the servants to pack

them up for you to bring home if you want.”

Corinne simply stared coolly at Lucas’ outstretched hand and said, “No thanks, Mister Lucas.”

Lucas was speechless, and his hand hung awkwardly in mid-air.

Pleased with her refusal, Jeremy smiled and patted Corinne’s head. “What a good girl she is today. Seems like she

finally learned not to take food from other men.’

After finding out the baby in Corinne’s womb was his, he did some homework and learned that it was easy for a

pregnant woman to get gestational diabetes, Corinne should avoid sweet things for the moment. Thus, he had no

choice but to use tough love on her.

Lucas sighed and placed the dessert back on the table. ‘Oh well. At least I tried to connect with her.’ Also, he knew

it was Anya who called Jeremy, and it did not take a genius to figure out what she wanted Jeremy to do. Thinking of

all this made his head hurt.

All of a sudden, Annie raised her glass. “Here’s a toast to Uncle Jeremy and Corinne! I wish the two of you a long

and happy marriage.”

Jeremy and Corinne exchanged glances with each other before raising their glasses to accept Annie’s blessings.

However, after seeing how they held their glass, Annie quickly said, “No! That won’t do. The two of you have to

intertwine your arms at the elbows like this and drink from your glass in a cross-armed style. Come on, everybody-

let’s cheer them on!”
