Chapter 48

‘Does that mean Mister suspects I stole the watch like Sunny and the other people, too?’ Corinne

thought.

Come to think of it, they were not a real couple; trust never existed between them. Despite feeling a

little disappointed, she did not care too much about it.

She shook her head and answered calmly, “I didn’t take it.”

No one could tell what Jeremy was feeling because of his cold expression. He responded calmly,”

Alright, then. Let’s go.”

The strong smell of food in the restaurant was making him uncomfortable, and he did not feel like

staying for longer.

Sunny was shocked to hear Jeremy saying they were leaving. He frowned vehemently as he found it

hard to accept having things ended this way. He swiftly ran over and spread his arms to stop. Jeremy

from leaving.

“Jeremy, why are you believing her when she was caught red-handed?”

Jeremy’s long eyes squinted. “The watch didn’t go missing, did it now? What else do you want her to

do?”

Sunny stubbornly argued, “But she’s a thief! How could you allow this thief to be with you?”

Jeremy was evidently displeased by Sunny’s words, and his gaze became even more pointed. Who are

you calling a thief?”

Sunny’s back stiffened, and all of a sudden, he was afraid to face Jeremy. Regardless of that, he was

unwilling to succumb to the fear because he thought he was a righteous person. Stubbornly, he pointed

at Corinne. “It’s…her…”

At this point, Jeremy’s face looked borderline cynical. “Say that again.”

Rosie quickly approached them and consoled softly, “Sunny, it’s fine. Don’t dwell on it anymore.

Besides, I’m embarrassed that everyone’s upset just because of my watch.”

She took the watch from Sunny’s hand and walked over to Corinne graciously. “Corinne, if you like this

watch, I can give it to you.”

She pulled Corinne’s hand and put the watch on Corinne’s wrist. With a bright and friendly smile, she

said, “Here, you go. Think of it as a present to commemorate our first meeting.”

Sunny furrowed his eyebrows and said unhappily, “Rosie, why are you giving it to her when she stole it

from you?”

She gave him a helpless look. “Sunny, don’t say that. I trust Corinne didn’t do it on purpose!”

Sunny was feeling sorry for her and murmured, “Rosie, you’re too kind.”

Corinne looked down at the watch on her wrist. It was definitely a very exquisite, beautiful feminine

watch. There were even a few large diamonds inlaid on the dial.

She smiled joyfully like she had gotten a treasure. While she admired and touched the watch, she

looked at Rosie. “Are you sure? Didn’t you say this was the last gift your grandfather gave to your

before he passed away? Are you giving me such an important watch?”

Rosie thought Corinne was just like any other commoner who never owned anything expensive, so she

smiled. “Of course! Although this watch is very important to me, I’m happy to give it to you. I think we

can get along very well. Giving the watch to you is also another commemoration for me!”

Corinne chuckled and raised her eyebrow. “I’ll take your gift, then.”

Sunny loathed Corinne’s attitude and snorted, “Are you seriously accepting it?”

She glanced at him and ignored him. As she waved her hand that had the watch on, she raised her

head and asked Jeremy, “Honey, will you buy this watch for me if I like it?”

It caught Jeremy by surprise when Corinne called him her honey. He was quite thrilled with it. His

brows lifted, and he looked at her rather pleasantly. “Sure.”

“That’s fantastic!” Corinne nodded satisfyingly. A second later, she took off the watch carefully and …

threw it into the soup they did not finish.

Everyone was shocked by her action, especially since that watch was an expensive watch from

Clause!

Rosie panicked. “My watch!”

Sunny was infuriated. “Corinne, what did you do?!”

Peacefully as she was, she drew out some tissues to wipe her wrist and every finger that touched the

watch like she had touched something disgusting. After that, she threw away the tissues and said to

Jeremy, “Honey, you don’t have to buy me a watch anymore. Just help me to pay back. Miss Sutton’s

watch to her.”

Without stopping, she turned around and left the restaurant.

Rosie’s friendly facade fell at that moment as she said angrily, “Jeremy, how could Corinne do that?”.

Jeremy looked at Corinne leaving dashingly and felt rather satisfied.

His expression hardened, however, as he turned to look at Rosie. He said, “She’s too childish, Why-

don’t you tell Tommy how much the watch is, and he’ll transfer ten times the amount back to you. for

the watch.”

Rosie was stunned and hurt. “Jeremy, we’ve known each other for so many years. You know I don’t

care about money! The watch means a lot to more. Isn’t Corinne a little too much?”
