Chapter 391 “An explanation is in order.” Jeremy narrowed his eyes. His gaze was focused solely on Corinne, and he did not
even bother to look at Sherlyn’s shy expression. He stretched out his big hand, took the suitcase from Corinne, and handed it to
Bowen, who stood beside him. He then asked, “What’s all this fuss about?” As Jeremy asked that question, he placed his arms
around Corinne’s waist and pulled her into his arms, as if worried that she might leave for real. Corinne felt that it was a little
inappropriate for him to hug her in front of other people, so she pushed his chest to try and break free. Alas, she could not do so,
and she could only shrug helplessly as she spread his arms and begannovelxo.com fast update explaining. “Well, it all started
when you went to the Carews to fetch your bride, which you were supposed to do by going through the main entrance. However,
you went through the back door and brought me away! Now that this secret has been exposed and they found out that you
picked up the wrong person that day, Sherlyn came to settle scores with me and demanded that I return the position of Missus
Holden to her. My only choice. now is to move away!” Sherlyn frowned at Corinne’s blunt way of putting things and secretly shot
her an unhappy look before following on from where Corinne left off. “My sister is right. The woman you were supposed to marry
in the beginning was me. It’s due to my sister’s penchant for troublemaking and taking advantage of other people that led to the
present misunderstanding!novelxo.com fast update “I came to meet her today because I felt she’s an ignorant girl who has never
seen the world because of her countryside upbringing. I was concerned that it’d only embarrass the Holdens if she were allowed
to keep staying here, and I believe it’s best that she and I switch places as it’ll be more fitting of our respective status.” Jeremy
listened and glanced suspiciously at Sherlyn. At that moment, he finally understood why Corinne’s family showed up uninvited
that day. The polite expression that he had disappeared in an instant. Rather than looking at Sherlyn, he gazed down at the girl
in his arms and asked unhappily, “Why did you have to make a fuss when they’re the ones who are causing trouble?” Corinne
pouted. “I didn’t make a fuss! You just married the wrong person! She’s the one you should have married, and she even wore a
wedding dress to wait for you at their home that day!” Jeremy’s expression sank. “Enough with that nonsense.” Despite his
anger, he did not speak too harshly to Corinne but instead toned his anger down and talked to her as if he was instructing a
child. He wanted her to know just how serious the matter was, but at the same time, he was afraid that he would scare her a little
too much. Corinne frowned and seemed a little upset. He did not seem interested to know whether he had chosen the wrong
person and merely asked her softly, “What did you eat today?” The sudden appearance of several uninvited guests who came to
stir trouble that day made him wonder if Corinne had eaten her meals. Corinne replied truthfully, “I ate a ham sandwich this
morning and some pasta at noon. I haven’t had dinner yet.” After meeting the Carews in the morning, she spent the rest of the
day upstairs. Bowen had her brunch delivered to her room, and she was quite full from the food. Jeremy seemed relieved that
she had eaten, and his expression softened slightly. “I see. What would you like for dinner then?” Sherlyn stared from the side as
Jeremy gave her the cold shoulder while speaking to Corinne in a very gentle and accommodating manner. She became irate
when she saw Corinne was receiving the tender, loving care that should have belonged to her. When she finally could not stand
it anymore, she had a sudden thought and suggested, “Mister Jeremy, I think we should let Corinne leave while it’s still early. If
you let her stay for dinner, it’ll be unsafe for her to bring her luggage when it’s too late.” Jeremy looked at Sherlyn coldly and
said, “If she leaves, you’ll be sent away all the same.” Sherlyn was stunned, feeling her ego take a hit. “W-why? Didn’t you fall for
me once before, Mister Jeremy? You can’t let Corinne bewitch you! She might look like a good person, but she’s one of the
evilest schemers ever! She’s the best at pretending to be innocent and playing the victim!” Chapter Lilliana was also a little
anxious as she said, “My dear son-in- law, you need to listen to your mother-in-law when she says. you’ve made a terrible
mistake. The one you intended to marry is Sherlyn, not Corinne!” Marvin had his ‘I-am-your-father-in-law’ attitude all the same
and spoke authoritatively, “Listen to me, my son-in- law! You were supposed to marry my eldest daughter, Sherlyn, and you
chose my younger daughter, Corinne, by mistake on the wedding day! This is a misunderstanding that we must correct!
