Chapter 220
Jeremy’s explanation was so thorough that Cornelia was over the moon, “I get it now.”
Jeremy replied, “Comelia, thanks for your unwavering trust in me.”
Comelia retorted, “We’re husband and wife, if I can’t trust you, who else can I trust?”
Hearing her words, Marcus was grinning from ear to ear, he was so delighted that he didn’t know what
to do next.
After Marcus confirmed his feelings, Cornelia felt a lot more stable, “Mr. Trent Brown, saying things like
that not only tarnishes Jeremy’s reputation, but how do you think your wife would feel if she heard
about it?”
Mentioning his wife, Trent quickly changed his tune, “I was just joking around, don’t take it to heart.

Abigail and Zack asked with a hint of suspicion, “Nelly, you really believe he was just joking?”
Comelia replied, “Of course I believe him.” 1
Seeing Cornelia’s unwavering trust in Jeremy, Abigail and Zack didn’t say anything more.
The three of them took Trent to inspect the house, only to find someone already waiting, “Ms. Stewart,
I’m the inspector sent by President Hartley.”
Cornelia said, “Please, go ahead.”
“You’re welcome.” The inspector took out a bunch of tools and left them on the balcony, then started
inspecting each room.
Trent, casual as he may be, was very professional when it came to work. He started measuring the
dimensions of the house with the floor plan in hand.
Soon, he had all the measurements, “Ms. Stewart, tell me what style you like and what each room will
be used for.”
Cornelia was clueless about home decor. Of the four rooms, aside from the master bedroom and the
granny suite, one room she decided to make into a dressing room, and another into a study.
Cornelia liked minimalist and wooden styles, simple and cozy. But she knew achieving such an effect
wouldn’t come cheap.
Upon hearing this, Trent immediately had an idea, “I’ll whip up a couple of design renders for you. You
can make any requests you like, after all, you’re Jeremy’s wife, I should put more heart into it.”
“Okay.” Cornelia was a bit skeptical about Trent’s design skills, but she’d have to wait and see his
proposal to know whether it was any good.
“I’ll head off now, I’ll get in touch when the plans are ready.” After leaving Cornelia, Trent called Marcus,

Marcus replied, “don’t worry about the money.”
Trent said, “Alright, alright, you’re the boss. But your wife may look a bit dim, but she’s not easy to pull
the wool over.”
Marcus laughed, “You’ll pay a price for your wilfulness today.”
After that, he hung up.
Trent sneered, “Hmph, you need me, not the other way around. What price can you make me pay?”
Not long after, his phone rang again, it was his wife. The moment he answered, he was met with loud
sobbing, “Trent Brown, you promised to love me forever, but look at what you’ve done!”
He received numerous messages, all containing very explicit pictures.
The man in the photos was him, but he didn’t recognize the woman!
