Chapter 759
After hanging up the phone, Jeremy looked up and noticed Corinne walking toward him.” What’s the matter? Don’t
you like the firework show?”
Corinne sat beside him and said nonchalantly, “I do, but it was getting kinda boring. It was just one beautiful
explosion after another, so I decided to come in.”
Jeremy narrowed his eyes and hugged her. “Did something happen? Why do you sound so unhappy?”
Corinne was indeed unhappy with him for being on the phone for so long. “Mister, what did Anya say to you?”

“Then why are you still here?” Corinne asked with a scoff.
Jeremy could hear the sarcasm in her voice. “Why would I go there? It’s not like I can cure him. Besides, I’ve asked
my men to get the best doctor in the city to check on Joey.”
“Are you sure you don’t know how to cure people?” asked Corinne with a sarcastic smile. “Yeah. Why do you ask?”

comfort so great that she nearly fell asleep.
“Mister, I have a question…and you must answer me as honestly as you can,” said Corinne sleepily.
Jeremy rubbed his chin against the top of her head and said softly, “I’m listening.”
Corinne grabbed his hand and laced her fingers between his. “Am I the only one in your—”
“Miss Anya! What are you doing here?” asked the Lunar Century Manor’s servants in shock.
The two of them turned around and saw Anya running in with the sickly Joey in her arms.
“Jeremy! Where’s Jeremy?!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTo say Corinne was surprised would be an understatement, but she would not put it past Anya to do something like
this. ‘Well, it took her no time to come here at all.’
Lunar Century Manor was built by the Riveras, and their mansion was not that far from here.
When Anya saw Jeremy seated on the sofa, she immediately ran over. “Jeremy!”
Jeremy frowned at the sight of her. “Didn’t I send the doctor over? Why did you bring Joey here?”
“I didn’t have a choice. He was crying for you. He wouldn’t let the doctor come near him
unless you were in the room with him. Look…” Anya held up Joey, who was deathly pale in the face. The bandage
around his head only served to make him look even more pitiful.
He looked at Jeremy weakly and reached out to him. “Dada… I want huggy…’
