Chapter 909
Previously, Corinne got a nosebleed after drinking the soup Pamela made for her.
Pamela was filled with guilt when Jeremy brought up the past. After rolling her eyes at Jeremy, she smiled apologetically at
Corinne.
“Sorry about last time, Corinne. I didn’t mean to give you a nosebleed. It’s just that you looked so skinny, so I wanted to fatten
you up a little. I promise I won’t force you to drink chicken soup every day now. You won’t get a nosebleed if you drink it every
other day.”
Corinne nodded and smiled. “I know you meant well, Grandma.”
‘She’s not only beautiful but kind too,’ thought Pamela, liking this granddaughter-in-law of hers from the bottom of her heart. She
was pleased with Corinne, but the same sentiment could not be said for Jeremy. Frowning, she scolded him, “Jeremy, you need
to take care of Corinne more! Look at how skinny she has become.”
Jeremy pulled out a chair and sat beside Corinne. He turned to look at Corinne before stroking her hair gently like she was a
kitten. “You’re right, Grandma. She’s too skinny. We must fatten her up!”
After that, he whispered into her ear. “You can give me the soup if you don’t want to drink it.”
Corinne nodded. She was a little distressed at how to deal with the soup since she was not hungry at all, so she was grateful that
Jeremy had come to the rescue.
Pamela could not help but smile kindly when she saw Corinne and Jeremy talking in a hushed tone. She nudged Greg and said,
“Check out that aloof grandson of ours. He’s even learned how to be loving to others!’
Being a man of few words, Greg said nothing. He simply frowned when he saw how softly Jeremy was talking to Corinne.
Corinne felt the way Greg was staring at her. ‘It’s obvious Grandpa doesn’t like me as much as Grandma does...’
Throughout the dinner, Pamela was very attentive to Corinne. She kept piling food on her plate to the point that Corinne could
not possibly finish it all. It was a good thing Jeremy was well aware of what was happening, so he would secretly help her eat the
food on her plate from time to time.
At the tail-end of the dinner, a servant suddenly came in and reported,” Mister Jeremy, some people are asking for Miss Corinne
outside.”
Corinne raised her eyebrow. “For me?”
The servant nodded. “Yes, Ma’am. Three of them had come before. They said they’re your family.”
‘My family?’ Corinne instantly thought of the Riveras but then quickly changed her mind. ‘No, it can’t be them ’cause the servant
would’ve recognized them. Plus, Lucas promised me he won’t tell the others about my real identity yet.’
Corinne might not have liked Lucas, but she trusted he would keep his promise. ‘So the only possible answer is the Carews have
come. But why would they? They haven’t contacted me since I cut ties with them. This can’t be good.’
Pamela had no idea of the convoluted relationship Corinne had with the Carews; she thought it was just her in-laws dropping in
for a visit so she smiled and said, “Corinne, you should ask your family to join US for dinner. I’ll ask the kitchen to whip up a few
more dishes.”
The servant was about to pass on the order to the kitchen when Corinne stood up and said
