Chapter 633
Ghostlord immediately knew who Corinne was when he looked at the member code number displayed on her chest. He nodded
at her and said, “Yeah. Hello.”
His voice was altered by the voice changer to sound like a heavy mechanical sound.
Corinne smiled. “Why are you drinking here alone? You should go talk with other people.”
“I’m not interested in doing that,” Ghostlord said after taking a sip of his wine.
Corinne nodded and said, “True. I don’t find it interesting either.” She walked up to the chair that was positioned across from
where he was sitting and asked politely, “Is it okay if I sit with you?”
Ghostlord nodded and gestured gracefully with his hand for her to take a seat. “Please do.”
Corinne pulled out the chair and sat down. ‘I’ll take it as he doesn’t mind talking to me since he didn’t ask me to go away.‘
She suddenly recalled something. “Ghostlord, I remembered you told me you’re married and your wife keeps you on a very tight
leash the last time when we were both online. That’s why you weren’t sure whether you can join this conference. So I didn’t
expect to see you here. How did you manage to get your wife’s permission?”
Ghostlord who was sitting languidly – suddenly sat up straight when he heard what she said and his eyes became unbelievably
cold under the mask.
Corinne sensed something was off. ‘Did I say something wrong? I was only trying to make small talk,‘ she wondered with a
frown.
After a few seconds of silence, Ghostlord coldly said, “My wife and I have divorced.”
He then finished his wine in one go and closed his eyes tiredly.
‘What? That’s fast!‘ thought Corinne but out loud, she said, “I’m sorry. I didn’t know that.”
She was embarrassed by her social faux pas and to show how sorry she was, she picked up the bottle of wine on the table and
poured him a fresh glass.
“No worries,” said Ghostlord coldly. He did not have any intention to blame her but then again he was already in a bad mood.
Normally Corinne would not have the desire to pry into her idol’s personal life but because she was troubled by relationship
problems recently, she could not help but ask out of nowhere, ”
What’s the reason for the divorce?”
Ghostlord picked up his glass and sipped the wine. Then he scoffed self–deprecatingly and said, “She ran off with another man.”
shouldn’t have asked him that.‘
“Sorry. I shouldn’t have asked further.”
Ghostlord did not seem to mind. He took another sip of the wine and looked at her indifferently. “What about you? Didn’t you just
get married? How’s married life treating you?”
Corinne simply shrugged and laughed self–deprecatingly at herself too. “I’m actually in the same situation as you. My husband
and I have divorced too.”
Ghostlord’s eyes went through a subtle change. He narrowed his eyes and asked her the same question she asked him, “What’s
the reason for the divorce?”
Lately, the feeling of him not understanding women plagued him so he wanted to find out what was the most common reason a
woman would ask for a divorce.
Tommy told him that day Corinne thought he was the father of the child Anya adopted and that was why she left him. However,
he still could not fathom how she could leave him as if he meant nothing to her. She moved on to another guy seamlessly and
even had a child with him, showing her resolve to start a new life.
‘I guess it would be pointless to explain myself to her now since I’m not her husband anymore. It’s not like she cares about the
truth anyway, but how could she get married to another guy within such a short period? Does she have no heart?‘ thought
Ghostlord.
Corinne had no idea that Ghostlord was Jeremy nor did she know what he was thinking right now. She simply sighed and
answered honestly, “I found out he had a kid with another woman. outside of our marriage. No way was I going to accept that so
I divorced him.”
Ghostlord was a little taken aback. He suddenly looked sharply into Corinne’s eyes and discovered that they looked familiar.
