Chapter 854
“I now understand that it’s all wishful thinking on my part. Regardless of how much I like you, I shouldn’t try to make you
sympathize with me by hiding that my illness has recovered. “Now that my infertility is cured, you don’t have to take any
responsibility for me anymore. Starting today, I’ll try my best to let go of you and sincerely wish you and Corinne a happy life
ahead!”
By pouring out her feelings and expressing her ‘regret’, Anya turned her infertility and the intricate web of lies she carefully
weaved into her life for so many years into the brief moment of lunacy that she was that day. As a result, the nature of what she
did became completely different, making it difficult for anyone to blame her for being such a lovesick girl.
Jeremy’s expression remained stern. Even though he never liked Anya and knew she had lied. to him, he could not bring himself
to treat her indifferently because she had saved his life before.
After a brief silence, he said, “Whatever it is, I’m glad that you’ve recovered. Take good care of yourself in the future. I no longer
owe you anything.”
Anya looked at him with reddened, pitiful eyes, and asked humbly, “Are you reluctant to meet me again in the future because I’m
healed? Can’t we just be friends?”
Jeremy said, “You saved my life, so you’ll always be my savior whether or not you’re ill. If you have any problems in the future
and need my help, you can always contact my secretary, Tommy. He will help you on my behalf.
“I’m no longer a single man, and I’ll avoid meeting someone of the opposite gender if I can help it. As for whether or not we can
be friends, I don’t think that’s necessary based on the relationship of the Holdens and the Riveras.”
His statement was clear and not very polite.
Anya nodded resentfully. “I understand, Jeremy...”
Though she had a disappointed look on her face, she secretly felt glad in her heart. Fortunately for her, she had managed to
salvage the situation with that rhetoric, and the collapse of her ruse did not end up as miserable as she thought it was!
As long as Jeremy still regarded her as a savior, there was still hope for the future because his attitude did not shut the door on
any possibilities.
“How can you be so cold to your savior, Mister? That isn’t very nice!” reproached Corinne.
She then smiled apologetically to Anya. “You risked your life to save him, so why would he avoid his savior forever just because
your body has recovered? If he isn’t going to be your friend, then I will! Don’t worry, Miss Anya! I’ll make sure to keep watch over
him so he continues to treat you as his savior!”
Anya had a defensive expression In her eyes. She had become vigilant when she saw Corinne approaching her because she felt
that she was trying to pull some kind of trick on her.
However, she could not let anyone notice her doubt, so she said, “Thank you for your willingness to be friends with me
regardless of the past...”
Corinne took Anya’s hand affectionately. “Well, we’re both girls, so I understand how you feel! You were blinded by love, and you
made mistakes in a moment of confusion!”
Anya forced a dry and uneasy smile. Deep down, she was unsettled when she saw Corinne holding her hand in a warm yet
generous manner. She had no idea what devious tricks that imp, Corinne, was going to use on her!
