Chapter 1343

Corinne snorted and said, “I don’t want water. I want bubble tea!”

Jeremy nodded dutifully and looked at Francine. “Go buy her some bubble tea. Quarter sugar and

quarter ice. Be back as soon as you can!”

Francine’s mind went blank for a moment, but she soon realized that Jeremy and Corinne were about

to reconcile. She immediately grinned and said, “On it! I won’t be long! One bubble tea coming right

up!” She turned and ran off.

Corinne paid special attention to her diet during her pregnancy and cut down on a lot of sweets. The

stimulation she experienced made her want some bubble tea just so she could calm herself.

Jeremy never looked at Sophia. He focused entirely on Corinne, and his gaze seemed to be cherishing

her as if she were a delicate little gem.

Sophia could not care less what Corinne thought of her, but she was very particular about Jeremy’s

opinion of her. She thus righteously said, “Corinne misunderstood me, and she’s also biased against

me. But you know who I am, and you know that I’m nothing like her accusations!”

Jeremy glanced up slightly and turned to Sophia. Rather than responding to her, he asked coldly,

“Have you gotten a replacement certificate yet?”

Sophia was startled and wanted to avoid the question. “Not yet. The procedure—”

Jeremy was in no mood to listen to her explanation. He interrupted her and said, “I’m grateful that you

were willing to help me with that favor, but you and I signed the agreement knowing that this was

simply to deal with my family and nothing else.

“If you keep delaying the procedure to get a replacement and proceed with revoking our marriage, I

would have to go through legal procedures from the country and sue the court to revoke the certificate.

I wouldn’t want to go to court with a friend, so the ball is in your court.”

Sophia stared blankly at Jeremy. She never expected him to say something so ruthless to her. In the

end, she could no longer pretend anymore and turned on him in anger.

“So you’re just going to get rid of me after using me? I am the only daughter of the dignified Adam

Group. I won’t let you bully me like this, and my father won’t let you do this either! You need to take

responsibility for me, or you’ll have to face my father. You know how powerful he is. I don’t want to stir

up any conflict between you two. It’ll break my heart to watch the two men I care about the most fall out

because of me! I won’t be as intolerant of other women as Corinne is. I’ll do anything for you!”

Jeremy took Corinne into his arms and patted her head gently. He did not want her to listen to Sophia’s

ridiculous statements. His sharp eyes stared defiantly at Sophia as he asked, “Are you threatening

me?”

Sophia shook her head eagerly. “I’m not! I just want to be with you! I won’t even mind that you have

Corinne, and I don’t mind if she gives birth to your child! We can live together! I just want to be your

wife—your true wife! I don’t care how many Corinnes you want to have in the future!”

Jeremy’s expression sank. He found it difficult to grasp the notion that his old friend was putting forth

and said indifferently, “I’m sorry. I’ll only ever see you as a friend.”
