Chapter 1058

Xante nodded. “Yeah, that punk deserves a real beating, but you don’t have to do it yourself. I’ll deal

with him later. You just stay here and rest. This is for your and the baby’s own good.”

Corinne was already in a bad mood before, but Aaron’s antics made it worse.

Seeing that Corinne was infuriated because of what Aaron did to her, Annie quickly wiped away her

tears and walked up to her. “Corinne, I’m okay. Please don’t be mad. Uncle Jeremy will kill me if he

finds out about this…”

Corinne looked at Annie with a deep frown on her face, thinking she would not feel better unless there

was an outlet for her to unleash her anger.

Xante naturally knew what Corinne was thinking about. ‘Boss won’t be able to sit still unless I go deal

with that punk now.’ Thus, she said, “Miss Annie, please take care of Corinne for me while I go out to

do something.”

Annie nodded cooperatively. “Sure thing, Miss Xante. I’ll take good care of her.”

Xante smiled. Then, she turned to Corinne and said meaningfully, “Don’t worry, Boss. You can leave it

to me.”

“Don’t show him any mercy. And take a video for me to watch later,” said Corinne coldly.

“Yes, Boss!”

After that, Xante walked out of the room.

It was only then Annie realized what Xante was going to do.

“Corinne, is Miss Xante going to find Miss Aaron? You have to stop her! I’m okay. I’m really okay. I don’t

want Miss Xante to bother Miss Aaron and his girlfriend because of me,” she said anxiously.

Corinne gave Annie a side-eye. She did not stop Xante, nor did she change her mind. Then, she said

to Francine, “Go spend time with Grandma Pamela. I only need Annie at the moment.”

Francine pouted but, not daring to make Corinne mad again, simply went out.

Only Corinne and Annie were left in the ward.

Annie took a deep breath and squeezed out a smile. “Corinne, Francine told me you wanted to soak

your legs to get rid of the soreness. Let me get you a bucket to put the hot water in.”

Considering it was inconvenient for her to move around due to her being pregnant, Corinne simply

accepted Annie’s offer.

“Okay, sorry for troubling you,” she said with a nod.

“Trouble? It’s no trouble for me at all!”

Annie quickly found a bucket for her. She then poured the hot water from the thermos inside before

adding a bit of cold water. After testing the water temperature, she looked up and said, “Corinne, is this

temperature okay for you? I can add a little cold water if you think it’s too hot.”

Corinne moved to the edge of the bed and put her legs into the bucket. Relief immediately washed over

her.

“Ahh, this is perfect.”

Only then did Annie put the thermos aside. She then crouched to look at Corinne’s slightly swollen

legs.

“My mom told me that when she was pregnant with me, she’d easily get sore and swollen legs to the

point she couldn’t walk a few steps without getting tired. At first, I thought she was exaggerating.

“But now that I see you suffering from sore legs when you’re pregnant at a younger age than my mom

was, I believe what she said. It’s not that easy carrying a baby inside of you, huh? Even though your

baby bump isn’t that obvious yet, I can feel you’re not as energetic as before.”

Corinne looked down at her ‘fat’ legs.

“Yeah. That’s why we women shouldn’t get pregnant that easily. Not every man is worth it for us to go

through this kind of suffering.”
