Chapter 1083

Jason shrugged and smiled. “I guess I can go pray at the altar again. I won’t bother you two anymore.

Corinne, I’ll find you later, okay?”

He winked at Corinne before walking out of the main hall.

Corinne could feel the anger flaring up inside of her. ‘I told him to behave while he’s here!’

After Jason left, the usually taciturn Mother Cathrina grabbed Corinne’s wrist and looked at her

worriedly. “Corinne, what kind of man is your boyfriend?”

Corinne was caught off-guard by the question. After a brief pause, she answered hesitantly, “Um…

He’s a bit older than me, and…I guess he’s not that bad.”

“Is he good to you?”

“Quite,” said Corinne since Jeremy’s performance in the last few days was not that great, giving her

cause to wonder if they really had a future together. Nevertheless, she decided to keep that to herself

as she did not want to worry Mother Cathrina.

Mother Cathrina stared intently into Corinne’s eyes for a long time before looking up at the angel statue

on the main altar.

“My ex-husband used to be good to me too, so much so that I thought I must be the luckiest woman in

the world. However, not long after we got married, he started staying out the whole night, ignored my

calls, and acted impatient with me. Then, we started fighting nonstop… Much later, I could count on

one hand the number of times I saw him in a year… He’d stay with a different woman every week, and

the worst part was, several of them had his babies.”

Corinne frowned. She found it hard to believe that a woman as wise as Mother Cathrina could not

escape the fate of marrying a dirtbag too.

“I’m sorry to hear that, Mother Cathrina. It sounds like you’ve been through a lot,” said Corinne.Books

Mother Cathrina looked at Corinne with pity in her eyes.

“Corinne, once the love is gone, it doesn’t take much for your significant other to get sick of you,” she

said meaningfully. “I used to ask myself what I’d done wrong to make him hate me so much, but it

wasn’t until much later that I realized there was no reason at all. He was simply tired of me. That’s why,

don’t ever believe a man when he says he’ll love you forever.”

Corinne thought of what happened to her father and mother. Back then, Maxwell spared no effort in

making Emily his wife, but everything changed after they got married. Maxwell did the three trifecta—

cheating, mistress, and illegitimate children—that would bring any marriage crumbling.

‘I guess that’s how all men are. They’ll tell you how much they love you at the start, but once they have

you, they’ll start chasing after other women,’ thought Corinne. She knew Mother Cathrina was just

preparing her for the worst as she did not want Corinne to end up like her.

Corinne was still mulling over Mother Cathrina’s words when she meaningfully added, “Corinne, I’m not

a really good nun. There are so many worldly things I cannot let go of just yet. That’s why the abbess

wouldn’t allow me to become a fully professed nun. Plus, I didn’t take you in out of kindness. I did it for

my own hidden agenda.”

‘She took me in for her own hidden agenda?’ This was something that never crossed Corinne’s mind.

Confused, she asked, “Mother Cathrina, is there something you’d like me to do for you?”

Mother Cathrina did not reply immediately.

“As I’ve mentioned, I have a son. He’s my only lingering attachment to the outside world. You were also

different even when you were little, and I like you very much, Corinne. It has always been my secret

hope for you to marry my son somewhere down the line.”
