Aaron was telling the truth; he genuinely did not know where Corinne was hiding. To avoid Jeremy finding her, Corinne forbade
them to call her on the phone she was using then.
Jeremy said nothing as Corinne’s original phone was with him. Before he went to Molomia, he programmed the phone to only be
able to receive calls from him and other emergency numbers.
He could sense Corinne was plotting her escape, which was why he dispatched more bodyguards to keep an eye on her. He
thought that by keeping her under house arrest, he would have all the time in the world to solve the problems between them after
he came back from Molomia. Thus, he was understandably shocked when he received news of Corinne’s escape.
Jeremy did not mean to make life difficult for Aaron. Thus, after looking around once more to confirm Corinne was not in the
area, he said coldly, “Call me the moment you have news of her.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated

Aaron wanted to curse at him but ultimately chose to cooperate with him to avoid suspicion. “Sure. You have my word.”
Jeremy left after that.
Xante walked out of her room and happened to see Jeremy walking into the elevator. She narrowed her eyes suspiciously and
said, “He looks like he’s really panicking.”
Aaron scoffed. “Of course he’s panicking. What man wouldn’t panic when the woman carrying his baby has gone missing?”
Xante shook her head. “No. I don’t think it’s the baby he’s worrying about.”
“So what? At the end of the day, he lied to the boss. It makes me sick to see him pretending to be worried when he’s married to
another woman abroad,” said Aaron angrily.
“What if he has his reason for doing that?”
“I failed to think of any reason that would warrant him to get legally married to another woman abroad. And even if he did, he
could explain it to the boss instead of lying to her. He should know the boss will try to see things from his side.”
Xante shrugged. “I was just guessing. Anyway, I wonder where the boss is right now and if she’s eaten.”
“She should be fine. Didn’t she say someone else is helping her? I’m pretty sure she’s at some nice place waiting for the dust to
settle so she can call us.”
Xante sighed and nodded. “I do hope so.”
Corinne did not tell Xante and Aaron that the person she had asked for help was Jason as she knew Jeremy would definitely go
to their place to look for her. The less people know about Jason, the better.
Xante went to close the door to stop the cat from running out before going back to her bedroom.
“Xante, wait!” called Aaron.
Xante turned back to look at him with a raised eyebrow. “Yeah?”
Aaron took out his phone and threw it toward Xante, who caught it without any trouble.
“What’s this?”
Aaron smiled sinisterly. “Your little lover boy has been calling me nonstop to ask me where you are, so why don’t you tell him
yourself?”
