Chapter 376

It did not make any difference which of Marvin’s daughters was married into the Holden family because

it would still

make him Jeremy’s father–in–law. However, deep down in his heart, he wanted his favorite daughter–

Sherlyn–to become Jeremy’s wife.

Marvin did not care much for Corinne since they never lived together as a family. No, she was raised in

the countryside – away from him–so even if she married into a wealthy family, he would not get

jacksh*t.

‘That little brat has been hiding in the Holdens‘ estate since she married into the family. She didn’t even

visit us once! What an ungrateful child she is!‘ thought Marvin.

Marvin felt that it would be better if Sherlyn were the one who married Jeremy so that he, as her father,

could share the glory with his daughter.

The three members of the Carew family discussed how to make Corinne pay for her insolence when

Anya silently got up and left their place with a smug smile on her face. Her objective of visiting the

Carew family had been attained.

Although she had been living abroad all these years, she kept a finger on the pulse of the happenings

back in her home

country.

To get Greg off his back about marriage, Jeremy came up with a plan to find a random woman who

would be willing to go into a fake marriage with him. Initially, he found a woman named Sophia who

came from a long line of martial artists in a

apter 358

country called Cativa.

However, Lady Luck must not be smiling down on Sophia that day because her plane was delayed due

to bad weather, so she missed the engagement party with Jeremy.

Due to this, Jeremy–in his desperation–had no choice but to rope Corinne into being his fiancee. As for

how he did that, Anya did not know.

However, Anya learned Sherlyn had officially announced she was to wed and quit the entertainment

industry after Jeremy sent Tommy to deliver the engagement gift to the Carews. Something must have

happened in between because, for reasons unknown to her, Corinne – and not Sherlyn–was the one

who married into the Holden family.

Therefore, Anya could not help but think that Corinne, in a bid to marry into a wealthy family, must have

done something to Sherlyn so that Jeremy would choose to marry her instead.

Anya had hired someone to look into the matter and learned that the Carew family did hold a wedding

banquet for Sherlyn that day. They made the whole thing as high–profile as

possible, and they claimed that their eldest daughter was going to marry Jeremy, the heir of the most

notable family in the whole city.

However, Jeremy never went to the wedding banquet. It was all for naught, and thus, Sherlyn and her

parents became a laughingstock of their friends and relatives. After finding this out, Anya decided to

use this information to drive a wedge between Corinne and her adopted family. It would be best if

Sherlyn could swap places with Corinne!

Anya could tell with one glance that Sherlyn was a typical

starlet, one that the entertainment industry was teeming with. Therefore, she was sure Jeremy would

not be attracted to her. Corinne, however, was different. She had a certain, unique quality to her, one

that was pure but down–to–earth, honest but cheeky, and cute but tough. It was a genuine personality,

not faked.

It was the kind of free–spiritedness that was new to Jeremy, new and fatally attractive, so even if Anya

could not get rid of Corinne this time, she would make her suffer for a while. Anya wanted Jeremy to

see for himself that no matter how special Corinne was, she was nothing but a girl from a middle–class

family whose parents only had money in their minds.

Anya was sure that once Jeremy knew what kind of

background Corinne came from, he would no doubt fall out of love with Corinne.

In any case, Anya could not wait to see how the drama would unfold in the Holden family tomorrow.

It was raining outside when Corinne and Jeremy finished their dinner in the Italian restaurant. The two

of them went outside, and Tommy immediately passed Jeremy an open umbrella.

Jeremy took the umbrella and swiveled it toward Corinne naturally. “How do you want to go home

today? Subway or bus?”

she

Corinne raised an eyebrow and looked at the rain. Then, tilted her head to look at Jeremy and said,

“Let’s take your car since it’s already here. It’ll be a bit of an overkill if I insist that you take the bus or

subway with me in this kind of weather. I might not be a typical good girl, Mister, but I’m not a drama
