Chapter 1533 Corinne nodded and watched Jason leave before entering the mansion gate with Bryan in her arms.
As soon as she walked in, she saw Francine, who had been secretly watching them from behind a tree.

Corinne glanced sideways at her. "Annie is still at her friend's place. | happened to run into Jason, and he offered to givea ride home," she said without breaking her stride.
'They happen to run into each other?’ Francine thought in disbelief. "No way am | going to believe that." Corinne raised an eyebrow. "Why not? Are you saying you don't believe me, or are you saying you don't believe Jason?" Francine could tell she was a little angry, so she quickly waved her hands." No, no. Of course | believe you, Corinne. But we all know Jason has a crush on you, so | think it's best if you stay away from him in the future." "Even if it's not a coincidence, he only cto look forthis tbecause he wanted to talk about our two companies working together. So don't think too much about it," said Corinne.
Francine followed Corinne from behind. "What? | didn't know Holden Group had a project going on with Talbot Group." Corinne did not want to explain too much to Francine since nothing was set in stone yet. She glanced sideways at her and asked, "What are you doing out here alone? Where's Joey and Christine?" Francine pointed to the garden. "They're over there flying a kite. A few of the servants are keeping an eye on them. | was with them too just now, but | slipped away when | saw Jason dropping you and Bryan off." Corinne looked toward the garden, and Joey and christinEd ere indeed flying a kite. She looked up and saw the kite was in the shape of...
"How did you manage to get them that kite?" she asked in shock.
Francine lifted her chin proudly as if asking for praise.’ Hehe. So you can tell that the kite is the sas the one Bryan ran off to find! | asked my friends where | could buy it and then got someone to bring it back from abroad.
Bryan has been feeling down lately, right? I'm sure he'll be happy to see this kite." Corinne was touched by Francine's gesture. It was obvious Francine loved the kid as much as she did, but...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCorinne looked down at the sleeping child in her arms with eyes filled with mixed emotions. 'The kid I'm holding right now isn't Bryan, but the kid I lost three years ago." In other words, she was carrying Benjamin, the boy with the kite during their picnic. He might not be happy to see something he already had in the first place. Meaning to say, Francine was going to be disappointed.
Before Corinne could say anything, Francine said excitedly, "Corinne, Corinne, wake Bryan up now so he can check out the kite! Hahahaha! | bet he'll be so happy that he won't even know what to say!" Corinne shook her head. "No, he had just fallen asleep, so he'll only be grumpy if we wake him up now. Let's wait for him to wake up by himself. You go play with Joey and Christine first. I'll find you later." After that, she carried Benjamin into the mansion.
'But Bryan never wakes up grumpy..." thought Francine while scratching her head. After that, she took out her phone to call Annie.
"Hello, Annie? What's going on? Didn't you say your therapist friend can provide counseling for Corinne? How did it end up with Jason sending her home? Aren't you afraid he'll steal Corinne away?" "It's Corinne who didn't wait for me. She ran out of the house with Bryan before | could say anything. | was just as confused as you are. Did you see Jason drop her off?" said Annie.
