It was Corinne!
She looked at Jeremy quietly with her chin on her palm. "Hey there, handsome. Who were you texting? Could it be me?"
Jeremy snapped out of his surprise and instinctively glanced upstairs to check that Sophia and Adam had not come down yet. He relaxed a little when he saw no signs of them.
He turned back to Corinne and said quickly, "Now's not the time to joke around like that. Take Benjamin and leave before Sophia's father finds out you're here. Hurry!" Corinne smiled. "What are you afraid of?"
Jeremy became a little anxious when he saw her not taking him seriously. "I'm being serious!"
"I know. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."
'Yeah, right! She wouldn't be sitting here if she knew what she was doing!' thought Jeremy.
While Corinne and Jeremy were talking, Benjamin-who came down with Corinne and Bryan-who was sitting next to Jeremy-looked at each other.
It was so bizarre! It was like they were looking at their own reflection in the mirror.
It was the first time that Bryan and Benjamin saw each other face to face. They did not expect that they would be so similar that even themselves could not tell the difference.
Lilin snapped out of her shock and asked Corinne respectfully, "Miss, what are you doing down here? My parents just went up to look for you. Did you see them?"
Corinne looked at Lilin and shook her head lightly. "No, I told you that you don't have to ask your parents to thank me."
"Miss, you saved my mom, and that's something we can never repay you for! So my mom really wants to thank you in person! Plus, they didn't believe what I said just now, so I have to prove that I really found you!" insisted Lilin.
Corinne expressed helplessness at Lilin's insistence, but even so, she would never give in to her request. She did not want to meet Melinda then, let alone after she found out she was actually Adam's wife. Truth be told, she even regretted saving Adam's wife back then.
Adam did not hesitate to separate Corinne and Jeremy for the sake of Sophia's happiness. He even brainwashed Jeremy to forget his past. Thus, Corinne thought Adam should at least get a taste of what it felt like to lose someone he loved very, very much.
'But then again, Adam's wife and little daughter are innocent. I shouldn't wish them any harm,' thought Corinne.
