Chapter 843

After leaving the ward, Corinne and Jeremy walked to the end of the corridor. They glanced out of the

window at the small garden for patients to have a stroll and exercise.

Corinne was bored, so she turned around and wrapped her arms lazily around his waist. She buried

her face in his chest and rubbed her face shamelessly.

It was not often that she would throw herself into his arms. Jeremy allowed her to do as she pleased,

but he was also keenly aware that she was not her usual self.

“Are you in a bad mood?”

Corinne turned her face so it was facing the man’s chest and listened to his strong heartbeat. Men are

all buttfaces, aren’t they?”

“What?” Jeremy frowned. There was a difference of nearly 10 years in their age gap, so there might be

occasions where he did not fully understand the slang used by young people such as her.

Nevertheless, he could tell that the word ‘buttface’ was a derogatory term.

Corinne’s gaze was vapid, and she had a sarcastic smile as she explained, “Just look at Mister

Maxwell. He comes from a renowned family, dresses nicely, and speaks in a well-mannered tone, but

he cheated on his wife with another woman. Now that he abandoned his wife and married the mistress,

he doesn’t care about her anymore! Do all men lose interest in their wives after marriage?”

Jeremy felt that she was testing him, so he said in a deep voice, “Don’t worry. I’m only interested in

you.”

His serious confession left Corinne feeling a little weird. She curled his lips and said, “But that’s

because you and I haven’t gotten to know each other better yet! You might get bored of me after we’ve

been together for a long time!”

Jeremy raised his hand and massaged the back of her head reproachingly. “Haven’t gotten to know

each other better? We’ve gotten to know each other inside and out. How much deeper do you want us

to know each other?”

The phrase ‘know each other inside and out’ was very suggestive, and Corinne could not help but

blush as she rolled her eyes and stared angrily at him. “I’m talking about feelings and our time together!

Not… ‘that”!”

Jeremy cocked his eyebrows slightly. “And by ‘that’, you mean…?”

Corinne was so irritated that she removed her arms from him and slammed her fist against him. “I’m

not talking to you anymore! You’re being indecent!”

She then turned about and was about to run away.

Jeremy stretched his arms and pulled her back so he could hug her tightly. “Stop letting your

Imaginations run wild! I know you’re hurting because of what you see, and you’re extrapolating what

your mother experienced to our relationship. Don’t think of me in such a bad light. I’m no longer at an

age where I want to fool around. I know what I want, and I only want you for the rest of my life.”

Corinne was hugged so tightly that she felt warm and grounded. His fresh, mature, and masculine

scent comforted her greatly.

“Let’s agree right now. If you get tired of being with me one day, you’re free to be with someone else.

But you can never cheat on me before we break up. I hate cheaters and being cheated on! Just be

straight with me and let me know if you get tired. I won’t hold either, and we can break up on good

terms so you can be with your new love!”

Men hated it when women talked about breaking up. “Don’t be silly and entertain all these wild

thoughts! I’m not going to break up with you, and you shouldn’t break up with me either!

Corinne acknowledged that she liked him very much at the moment, and she believed that Jeremy’s

words were genuine.

However, she was not a lovesick woman who would let her feelings get the better of her, she was not

going to let herself be fooled into thinking that ‘eternal love’ existed.

As a result, she still insisted on her beliefs and said, “I firmly think that it’s better to talk about the

ugliness of reality before we’re in too deep. If we end up separating for whatever reason in the future,

custody of the child will belong to me. I want us to sign a prenuptial agreement!”

Jeremy frowned. “Does it have to be that way?”

“It’ll set my heart at ease!” Corinne nodded.

Jeremy narrowed his eyes. “And what if I don’t agree to sign that sort of thing?”

Corinne’s gaze was sharp. “Then it shows that deep down, you’re afraid that the prenup might come

into force because you believe in the possibility of our separation in the future!”
