Chapter 1341
The Day I Kissed An Older Man
âThey all said you were dead, Jeremy, but I didnât believe any of it! I knew you wouldnât leave us so
easily! Iâm so glad I held on to my beliefs! Itâs such a relief to see you alive!â
Jeremy nodded. âSorry you had to worry about me.â
Sophia suddenly had a melancholic expression. âWhat about Corinneâ¦â
Jeremy opened his mouth. âSheââ
âThatâs right! Corinne was nowhere to be found!â Francine ran over and said to Jeremy after hearing
Sophia mention Corinneâs name. She was back after she helped Pamela take a seat at the police
station.
Sophia had a worried expression. âCorinne is pregnant and missing. This isnât a good sign. If
something happens to her, thenââ
âWere you looking forward to something to happen to me, Miss Sophia?â Corinne interrupted Sophiaâs
words insipidly.
Both Sophia and Francine were startled to hear Corinneâs voice. They looked toward the door of the
interrogation room and saw Corinne walking out calmly.
When Jeremy saw her, he came to her and reached out to support her.
Francine was overjoyed. âSister-in-Law!â
Sophia had a contrived expression. âCorinne? So youâre⦠Youâre here too! Thatâs good!â
Corinne did not refuse Jeremyâs help and placed her hand on Jeremyâs forearm. She looked at Sophia
and raised her eyebrows. âAre you genuinely happy to see me?â
Sophia nodded vigorously. âYes! Of course! We have nothing to worry about anymore if you and
Jeremy are both safe and sound!â
Corinne curled her lips. âYou donât seem too happy to me. Since Iâm still in one piece, your plan to lead
me to the ruins after the explosion so those gangsters could bring me away ended up in vain.â
âWhat?â Francine frowned and looked at Sophia. âYou led my sister-in-law into heading to the place
where the explosion happened? You pretended not to know anything when I called you to ask where
she went!â
Sophiaâs cheery expression stiffened slightly. âI swear I didnât know anything, Francine! I have no idea
why Corinne said that. I didnât even meet her before everything happened!â
Sophia then glared at Corinne resentfully. âIâm really glad you came back in one piece, but you canât
just use this as an opportunity to make false accusations! When did I lead you to the ruins? I wouldnât
even dare to step foot there!â
Corinne was not surprised at her blatant lies and snorted softly. âWhat reason do I have to make false
accusations?â
Sophia frowned and had a frustrated expression. âI know that youâve always hated me because Jeremy
and I are legally married, but Iâve already explained to you that we got the marriage certificate as a
personal favor between friends. Thereâs nothing else to it. This is just one big misunderstanding! You
canât just falsely accuse me of something I didnât do just because youâre jealous of that!â
âFalsely accuse you?â Corinne had to contain her laughter. âThen let me ask you this: Did you print
those leaflets and hire someone to throw them in the Riverasâ yard so I would see the news of Jeremyâs
death? Didnât you want to stir my emotions to the point where it might affect my baby?
âDid you also spread rumors that Jeremyâs grandparents made a will and wanted to pass on all the
Holdensâ assets to the baby in my fetus? Wasnât that an act of turning me into a target for those
gangsters?
âYou helped me escape from the hospital and led me to the ruins with the plan of either having those
gangsters take me away, harm me, or get rid of my baby to avoid any other trouble in the future! You
didnât expect me to survive all that and come out unscathed, which Iâm sure you have difficulty
accepting.â
