Chapter 451

Jeremy checked the time on his wristwatch. “Yes.”

Lucas lifted Anya off him, stood up gracefully, and put on his suit jacket. “That settles it then. The three of us will go over the details of the engagement over lunch.”

“Okay,” said Jeremy.

who was still hiding behind the bookshelf and two months pregnant touched her belly subconsciously. Her eyes were filled with coldness and irony.

‘So they’re going to talk about Jeremy’s and Anya’s engagement eh? I’m sure their parents would not object to them being together since they already have a kid together. Maybe this will be the start of them putting away their differences and coming together as a real family,’ thought Corinne.

Lucas put his arm around Anya’s shoulders and the three of them walked over to the door when suddenly Lucas paused in his tracks and said, “Jeremy, might I trouble you to bring Anya to the restaurant first? I just remember I have urgent matters to attend to. I’ll ask Edmund to make a reservation for the restaurant. You two go ahead first and start without me. I promise I won’t take long and will go there as soon as I’ve finished my work.”

“Okay,” said Jeremy emotionlessly. He did not care one way or another.

“Okay, Lucas. We’ll make a move first. Please come to the restaurant as soon as you’re done with your work,” said Anya sweetly.

Lucas beamed a smile back at her. “You got

it!”

Corinne heaved a sigh of relief when she heard Jeremy and Anya walking out of the office.’ Phew, I’m safe.’

Suddenly, she felt a wave of nausea. She instinctively covered her mouth with her hand and forced the vomit back down. ‘Don’t make a sound, Corinne. Don’t make a sound,’ she told

She could not wait to get revenge on Lucas for embarrassing her just now. This time, it would be Lucas blushing. All she had to do was find out where he hid the woman.

A frown appeared on Lucas’ face when he saw Anya making a beeline for the bookshelf. However, he chose to remain silent. He was not trying to hide Corinne from Anya just now; it was just that it would be hard for him to explain what she was doing behind the bookshelf if Anya were to find out.

Now, it did not matter. There was no outsider here anyway.

‘Sh*t!’ said Corinne inwardly when she heard Anya’s footsteps nearing. There was nowhere to hide anymore. Her face was pale from all that retching and she started to hyperventilate.

Anya stuck her head behind the bookshelf and her cheeky smile immediately froze on her face. She remained like that for one whole minute as her innocent doe eyes went from shock to

hatred.

‘What the h*ll is she doing here?”
