Chapter 1162

Lucas scoffed. “I shouldn’t have let Corinne marry Jeremy!”

Jason patted Lucas’ shoulder again. “Come now. You don’t want to hurt your foot again, so just wait

here patiently. I’ll go look for Corinne on your behalf.”

After that, he strolled out of the office nonchalantly.

Frowning, Lucas watched him as he left before sighing helplessly.

‘I must make Corinne come back home once she’s found so that she’ll never have to suffer under

Jeremy’s rule again.’

…

Jeremy rushed back home as soon as his plane landed at midnight. He did not even bother to greet his

grandparents before going upstairs to his room to look for clues.

Even though Corinne was nowhere to be seen, the bedroom was still filled with the lingering scent of

her favorite shampoo.

Jeremy opened the wardrobe and noted she did not take any clothes with her at all.

‘She left without saying goodbye again? But why?’ He punched the wardrobe door.

The noise brought Francine—who had been awake all the while—to the room.

Seeing the anguish on Jeremy’s face, Francine cautiously greeted, “Jeremy, you’re back.”Books

He turned toward Francine. “Did she say anything to you before she went missing?”

Francine shook her head. “No… She… Everything was normal. Neither Grandma her. We have no idea

why…”

Jeremy balled his hands into fists and hissed, “Why did you bring her out?!”

Francine pouted. “She said she was bored out of her mind and needed some fresh air, so Grandma

took pity on her and agreed to bring her out to Central Park…”

Jeremy took a deep breath. “Are you two happy now that she’s gone missing?”

“Jeremy, how can you say that?” asked Francine pitifully.

At that moment, Sophia walked into the room too. “Jeremy, you shouldn’t blame your grandmother and

Francine too much. I’m sure they didn’t expect something like this to happen too. The most important

thing now is to find Corinne.”

The veins on Jeremy’s temple looked like they were about to pop. He did not need her to tell him what

was most important to do at that moment. He had mobilized all of his men to look for Corinne, but it

was like she had vanished into thin air!

Surprised by the strange woman who suddenly appeared, Francine looked up and down at Sophia.

‘Judging by the way she’s dressed, she doesn’t look like she’s from around here.’

“Jeremy, who’s this?” she asked warily.

Before Jeremy said anything, Sophia walked up to her with a smile and introduced herself brightly.

“Hello. I’m Sophia. You must be Francine. Your brother has told me so much about you.”

Francine frowned. “Are you close with Jeremy? What are you doing at our home?”

“Yeah, we’re pretty close. We go way back.”

Francine looked at her with alarm. ‘If she’s close with Jeremy, how come he has never mentioned her?

Could she be the reason why Jeremy fought with Corinne a few nights ago?’
