Chapter 761
Jeremy remembered how Anya sucked the poison out of his body, how she brought him food and medicine every
day, and how cute she looked when she addressed him as ‘Mister’.
He held a special feeling for that girl ever since. It was not of love but of gratitude for saving his life. Even if he was
blinded by the snake’s venom in his body, he could clearly remember everything. Everything except for the girl’s
look.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLater, when Anya came to look for him with the bracelet at hand, he felt something was different about her. Not
able to put his finger to it, he just chalked it down as him imagining things.
Jeremy felt extremely guilty after learning Anya could not have children nor did her health ever recover from the
snake venom she sucked out of his body. He tried to make it up to her ever since but the one thing she wanted from
him, he could not give.
After taking a trip down memory lane, Jeremy shoved the bracelet back into Anya’s hand. “My promise to you still
stands, so take this bracelet back. It’s yours to keep forever.”
He then stood up, picked up Joey from the sofa, and left for the guest room upstairs. He stopped walking when he
passed by Corinne and looked at her, conflicted. “Wait here for me. I’ll be back soon.”
Corinne said nothing else and simply nodded.
Anya had gotten what she came for. She wore the bracelet and waved it in front of Corinne while smiling smugly as
if to say, ‘See this? As long as I have this bracelet, Jeremy will forever take
my side.’ She then glared at her condescendingly before turning to follow Jeremy and Joey up to the guest room.
Corinne watched the three of them leave apprehensively.
“Corinne, your kid would have to fight for his father’s attention with Anya’s kid once it’s born. Doesn’t that bother
you?” asked Jason.

mouth… It’s such a shame a good-looking guy like him only knows how to annoy me with that stupid mouth of his.”
“That’s none of your business,” said Corinne.
Jason shrugged and smiled. “Come on, Corinne. Don’t be so cold to me. I was just being kind enough to warn you.
Corinne rolled her eyes at him. “As if!”
“Of course I am. To be honest, it breaks my heart to see you like this. Tell me, how does it feel to see your husband
walking away with another woman and her kid? I’d be so disappointed in him if I were you.”
Corinne had no time to wallow in self-pity as something about that bracelet looked familiar to her. She was quite
sure she had seen it before…but where?
