Chapter 854

“I now understand that it’s all wishful thinking on my part. Regardless of how much I like you, I shouldn’t

try to make you sympathize with me by hiding that my illness has recovered. “Now that my infertility is

cured, you don’t have to take any responsibility for me anymore. Starting today, I’ll try my best to let go

of you and sincerely wish you and Corinne a happy life ahead!”

By pouring out her feelings and expressing her ‘regret’, Anya turned her infertility and the intricate web

of lies she carefully weaved into her life for so many years into the brief moment of lunacy that she was

that day. As a result, the nature of what she did became completely different, making it difficult for

anyone to blame her for being such a lovesick girl.

Jeremy’s expression remained stern. Even though he never liked Anya and knew she had lied. to him,

he could not bring himself to treat her indifferently because she had saved his life before.

After a brief silence, he said, “Whatever it is, I’m glad that you’ve recovered. Take good care of yourself

in the future. I no longer owe you anything.”

Anya looked at him with reddened, pitiful eyes, and asked humbly, “Are you reluctant to meet me again

in the future because I’m healed? Can’t we just be friends?”

Jeremy said, “You saved my life, so you’ll always be my savior whether or not you’re ill. If you have any

problems in the future and need my help, you can always contact my secretary, Tommy. He will help

you on my behalf.

“I’m no longer a single man, and I’ll avoid meeting someone of the opposite gender if I can help it. As

for whether or not we can be friends, I don’t think that’s necessary based on the relationship of the

Holdens and the Riveras.”

His statement was clear and not very polite.

Anya nodded resentfully. “I understand, Jeremy…”

Though she had a disappointed look on her face, she secretly felt glad in her heart. Fortunately for her,

she had managed to salvage the situation with that rhetoric, and the collapse of her ruse did not end up

as miserable as she thought it was!

As long as Jeremy still regarded her as a savior, there was still hope for the future because his attitude

did not shut the door on any possibilities.

“How can you be so cold to your savior, Mister? That isn’t very nice!” reproached Corinne.

She then smiled apologetically to Anya. “You risked your life to save him, so why would he avoid his

savior forever just because your body has recovered? If he isn’t going to be your friend, then I will!

Don’t worry, Miss Anya! I’ll make sure to keep watch over him so he continues to treat you as his

savior!”

Anya had a defensive expression In her eyes. She had become vigilant when she saw Corinne

approaching her because she felt that she was trying to pull some kind of trick on her.

However, she could not let anyone notice her doubt, so she said, “Thank you for your willingness to be

friends with me regardless of the past…”

Corinne took Anya’s hand affectionately. “Well, we’re both girls, so I understand how you feel! You were

blinded by love, and you made mistakes in a moment of confusion!”

Anya forced a dry and uneasy smile. Deep down, she was unsettled when she saw Corinne holding her

hand in a warm yet generous manner. She had no idea what devious tricks that imp, Corinne, was

going to use on her!
