Chapter 1250

The maid brought some soup and fed some to the dazed Jeremy. Jeremy took two sips and waved his

hands, indicating he did not want any more.

The maid obediently placed the soup down and excused herself right away.

Pamela sat next to Jeremy and looked at him dejectedly. “Drink the soup and sober up with a bath.

Getting wasted is hardly the kind of thing a grown man should be doing!”

Jeremy could feel a headache coming. He leaned his head on the back of the sofa and placed one arm

over his forehead to cover his eyes. He ignored what his grandmother had said to him.

When Pamela saw a flickering light in his trouser pocket, she reached out to take his cell phone. It had

been put on silent.

The caller ID displayed an unsaved phone number, and Pamela’s eyes lit up as she answered the call.

“Are you home yet, Jeremy?” On the other end of the line was Sophia, who asked concernedly.

The glow in Pamela’s eyes dimmed considerably, and she replied, “He’s home, Sophia. Don’t worry.

Get some rest.”

Sophia was a little surprised when she heard an old woman’s voice. Nevertheless, she smiled sensibly

and said, “Okay, Grandma Pamela! You should go to bed soon, too!”

After ending the call, Pamela placed her hand on her forehead and said, “What’s going on in your mind

right now, Jeremy? Are you going to accept Sophia, or are you planning to bring Corinne home?”

Jeremy spoke emotionlessly. “Were you expecting Corinne to call and show concern about me just

now?”

Pamela was silent. He was right; she did think that the call was from Corinne.

Jeremy sneered. “She won’t come here even if I die.”

“Corinne isn’t heartless!” Pamela refuted. “I can see that you still care a lot about her, and I think you

should find a chance to explain things clearly to her. She must’ve misunderstood your relationship with

Sophia.”

‘Misunderstand? If she thought it was a misunderstanding, she should’ve been angry at me and

questioned me about it so I could explain to her! Disappearing silently for half a year was hardly a

reasonable response! She even wore a mask when she met me because she was so afraid that I’d

recognize her and bother her! In the end, I’m nothing more than a dispensable commodity to her!’

Jeremy smiled sullenly.

“I’m sorry that I still have to let you worry about my problems. I’ll take care of everything. You should

get some sleep.” Jeremy got up, took his cell phone, and went upstairs sluggishly.

Francine walked over with pursed lips and handed Pamela some soup to soothe herself. “This

misunderstanding between Jeremy and Corinne is too strong!”

Pamela sighed helplessly and sipped some soup. “How was everything? Did you contact Annie to ask

if Corinne is all right?”

“I already did,” said Francine. “Annie told me that she’s staying over at Corinne’s place. Corinne is

doing just fine there.”
