Chapter 1182

Sophia laughed wryly. “You’re an interesting man, Mister Zeke.”

“What’s the use of being interesting if you don’t love me?”

“Oh, stop it. I know I’m not your type either.”

Meanwhile, in a luxurious villa on the outskirts of the city, Corinne was watching the television while

having her dinner.

The villa belonged to Jason, and she had been living there for close to six months. She intended to fly

out of the country with Jason’s private jet after the storm died down. Alas, the chaos never settled as

Jeremy still ordered his men to look for her and keep a close eye on all major transport systems.

Even though she could use Jason’s private jet, the pilot would still need to clear the flight with the air

traffic controller, which would require him to submit all the passengers’ names. She was sure she would

be exposed then since Jeremy would be monitoring all the private jets leaving the country as well.

Thus, she had no choice but to accept Jason’s arrangement to hide out in the villa.

The villa was located quite far from the city, and there were no other buildings around it. Thus, Corinne

knew she would be safe there. Jason even arranged for his trusted servants to take care of her, and

there would be deliveries of essentials every other day.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay

Corinne did not have to stay at Jason’s since both Xante and Aaron had many properties under their

names too. She could hide out in any one of them, but doing so would put her at the risk of being

discovered by Jeremy.

She knew Jeremy would suspect Xante and Aaron had something to do with her disappearance.

She had no idea how long she could live in hiding, but she was determined not to go back to Jeremy.

‘What does that b*stard take me for? His concubine?’ she thought. ‘Even living as a concubine is better

than a fake wife!’

She once told him she did not care whether they got legally married or not, but that did not mean he

could lie to her about being married to someone else! Moreover, she could not believe he still expected

her and the baby to stay with him!

Corinne was eating and thinking about all that when she received a new text message. The phone she

used belonged to one of the servants, so she was not worried about being discovered.

The text message was sent from an unknown number and was written in Morse Code instead of words.

Her face instantly changed after she deciphered the message.

The message was from Xante. Both she and Aaron had a rotation of different phone numbers they

used to contact her, and as an added precaution, they only communicated with each other using Morse

Code.

The gist of the text message this time was Holden Group would be holding a ribbon-cutting ceremony

for their new building in three days. They asked for the attendance of Moon with the stipulation that

they would not pay the remaining balance they owed to Newmoon Group if she did not attend.

Since Corinne was the one who negotiated the deal, she knew how much money was involved, so she

knew this was no time for joking. Nonetheless…

She looked down at her baby bump and thought, ‘This is going to be tricky… If the baby bump isn’t

showing, I could just do what I did last time—join the ceremony by wearing a mask and telling them I’m

allergic to UV rays. It’s not like Jeremy’s the type who’d force me to take off my mask…’
