Chapter 1188

Sunny, on the other hand, did not think too much of it and said, “Xante, let’s just join them. The more

the merrier after all.”

After thinking about it, Xante walked over to their table with a mission to get to know Sophia better.

“Well, don’t mind if we do, then.”

Sophia tilted her head and smiled at her. “A friend of Jeremy is a friend of mine too. Please, go ahead.”

Xante pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses and scoffed internally. She knew Sophia’s breezy attitude

was all an act since every word of hers was meant to let others know just how close she was with

Jeremy. As to whether Sophia was doing it on purpose or accidentally… Well, that depended on who

was the recipient of her message.

Xante sat beside Sophia while Sunny took the seat beside Jeremy. There was an awkward silence

once everyone was settled.

Jeremy continued to cut his steak with an apathetic expression. It was as if he was not interested in

what was going on in his surroundings at all. In fact, he would give only one-word answers whenever

Sunny asked him any question.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books

Sophia was not eating. She rested her chin on her hand and looked sideways at Xante. “Miss Xante,

can you tell me what kind of person Miss Corinne is?” she asked with a smile.

Xante suddenly stopped cutting her steak. She turned to meet Sophia’s curious eyes. “Why are you so

interested in her?”

“Because Jeremy won’t stop bringing her up, so I’m curious to know what she’s like,” answered Sophia

honestly. “I thought I’d get a chance to meet her when I came back, so it was a real pity that she left

without saying goodbye.”

‘Mister Jeremy won’t stop bringing up the boss to this woman? Hmph! Only he’d do something so

outrageous as to talk about another woman to his legally married wife! I won’t be surprised if he calls

the boss his wife to Miss Sophia!’

Xante did not want to answer Sophia, so she lifted her chin slightly and deflected her question with

another question. “You said Mister Jeremy won’t stop talking about Miss Corinne, right? You should be

asking him that question instead of me. I’m sure he knows her better than me.”

Sophia glanced at the expressionless Jeremy before complaining to Xante, “But he only gives me the

bare bones of the story. Lately, no matter how much I ask him, he doesn’t really like bringing up Miss

Corinne anymore. I was hoping you’ll tell me, Miss Xante. I’m really curious about how she’s able to

make everyone like her so much.”

‘Is this her way of digging up information about the boss because she thinks she’s Mister Jeremy’s

mistress?’ wondered Xante. She could not help but feel upset when the word ‘mistress’ flashed through

her mind. ‘The boss is no one’s mistress! She was conned into a sham marriage by Mister Jeremy!’

However, she could understand why Sophia would see Corinne as Jeremy’s mistress. Any wife would,

in that case.

‘The boss hates nothing more than someone who’s a mistress. How could she not hate Mister Jeremy

for turning her into one?’
