Chapter 872

Corinne came out of the kitchen and placed the bowl of noodles in front of Jeremy, who was sitting at

the dining table and scrolling through his phone.

He immediately put down his phone when he saw the steaming bowl of noodles with a boiled egg in

front of him. He turned to her and said, “That was fast.”

Corinne untied her apron, pulled out the chair beside him, and sat. “It would’ve been faster if you didn’t

get in my way just now. Eat up while it’s still hot.”

Jeremy smiled faintly, picked up his fork, and took a bite. “Not bad! But you don’t have to cook for me

anymore. We have servants for that, y’know.”

Corinne raised her eyebrow. “Is this your way of telling me my cooking is awful?”

Jeremy pinched her cheek. “You little rascal. Is that how you see me? I was just worried that you’ll tire

yourself out.”

Corinne’s face was all bent out of shape with all the pinching Jeremy was doing. She pouted and said,

“It’s just a bowl of noodles. How tiring can it be?”

“You’re pregnant right now, so it’s best to not do anything. In fact, you should just stay in bed and rest,”

lectured Jeremy sternly.

Corinne put both of her elbows on the table and rested her face on her hands as she looked at Jeremy

eating. “Mister, do you want to be a dad?”

“Maybe.”

“What do you mean maybe? It’s either yes or no. So which is it?”

Jeremy had always been a fast eater, so he finished the bowl of noodles in no time. He put down his

fork and took a sip of water before answering, “I do want to be the father of our child, but I’ll have to

share you with our child when he’s born. And I don’t want to share you with anyone for the time being-

not even our child.”

Corinne was a little stunned to hear him say that, and she broke out in laughter. “Hahaha! Why, you’re

still just a kid inside! I can’t believe you’re jealous of our unborn child.”

Jeremy gulped down half a glass, put down the glass, and raised his head to gaze seriously into her

eyes. “So you think I’m still a kid, huh? I might not have a lot of experience in relationship matters, but

even I know that it’s best to enjoy some time to ourselves first before having a kid. If possible, I want us

two to have more quality time together, but since our baby decided to meet us earlier…then I’ll do my

best to welcome him with you.”

Corinne thought Jeremy looked cute when he spoke so seriously about relationship matters. She stood

up and held his handsome face. “Don’t worry, Mister, I promise you I’ll still have time for you after the

baby comes. I’ll split my attention fifty -fifty with you and the baby.”

Jeremy wrapped his arm around her tiny waist and pulled her to sit on his lap. “But what about now? I

mean, I have to hold myself back from ravaging because of the baby,” he whispered into her ear.

Knowing what he meant, Corinne immediately blushed. “Here you go again, Mister. Is that all you can

think about now that your turnmy is full? If I had known this would happen, I would’ve let you go

hungry…”

“I’m a man after all, so it’s normal for my mind to go there after filling my stomach…” He then nuzzled

her face and gently kissed her from the earlobe to the corner of her lips.

Corinne instantly went soft as though she had been shocked by a strong electric current. However, she

retained a sense of decency, she knew they should not do anything in the dining room since a servant

could catch them at it.

‘He might not think it’s shameful, but I do!’ she thought. Thus, she turned away from his face and said,

“Mister, you should brush your teeth after eating!”

Jeremy’s hot breath fell on her cheek. Frowning, he grabbed her chin and turned her face back to him,

lust burning in his eyes.

“Why? Are you disgusted by me?” he asked hoarsely as he touched her nose with his. 1

Corinne’s heart thumped loudly in her chest, completely taken in by him. “Would I do this if I find you

disgusting?”
