“But if I have you, a Holden, on my side, it adds an extra layer of guarantee that I won’t be cast away like trash by
Jeremy’s grandparents. We can work together toward a win-win solution and help each other get the life we want.
What do you say?” suggested Corinne.
The silver-haired man gazed at Corinne for a while before pushing her away in disgust. “What makes you think I’ll
be willing to accept a woman Jeremy has used?”
Instead of being humiliated or angry, Corinne simply laughed. “The same can be said about Holden Group. He
dipped his finger all over it, yet you don’t seem to mind at all. You should know I have my own merits for being able
to snag someone like Jeremy!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe silver-haired man seemed to be getting convinced. It was just as Corinne deduced—he did not know anything
about running a company and had no friends to help him. It would be promising if someone like Corinne could guide
him.
‘Hm, I like her straightforward attitude. It won’t be too late to get rid of her after I finish using her.’
With that thought in mind, the silver-haired smiled sinisterly and said, “Okay, I’ll let you live for the moment. But
make no mistake, I’ll kill you if I even get the hint of feeling you’re playing me.”
Corinne smiled. “Great. Now that we’ve decided to work together, can you please untie me?”
A look of caution flashed across the silver-haired man’s eyes. “Why should I do that and why are you in such a

plan on how to take down the company in the future.”
The silver-haired man looked at her skeptically.
Corinne smiled at him. “What’s the matter? Do you think I’m going to try to run away? Come on, I’m heavily
pregnant, and my legs will still be tied up. I can’t run even if you untie my hands. You’re seriously overestimating
me and seriously underestimating you and your friends.”
Her words seemed to have an effect on the silver-haired man. He looked at Corinne’s pregnant belly with a frown
and believed she could not run in such a condition.
“Give me your hands,” he barked coldly.
Corinne quickly raised her hands.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs the man untied her hands, his gaze fell on her slender wrists.
‘Huh, that’s so weird. Her body is huge like a whale’s, even her face is all round and puffy, yet her wrists are still so
skinny…’ thought the silver-haired man.
He threw the rope aside and shouted, “Now draw!”
Corinne spread out her hands innocently. “How am I supposed to draw when I don’t have any pen or paper?”
The silver-haired man glared at her and gave her a warning look before turning to find some pen and paper for her.
