Chapter 1616:

Jordy instinctively drew back. “Hold up, no! I can’t go that far.”

“Why?” Corrie shot back, impatience simmering in her voice. “Do you want Elyse going around shouting our

secrets to the world?”

“Of course not!” Jordy exclaimed, but quickly added, “But murder? That's crossing a line | can’t even fathom. |

won't do it.”

Corrie’s expression twisted with disdain, her lips curling as she stared at him. She pressed her lips together,

frustration leaking from her voice. “So, what are you willing to do for us? For our happiness?”

Jordy wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling the pressure mounting. “Don’t worry about it. I'll take care of it.

Just givea little time. I'll keep our secret safe.”

A bitter sneer curled on Corrie’s lips. She was beginning to doubt Jordy had the spine for anything, let alone

protecting her.

But something more pressing burned in her chest. “Have you spoken to Brook? About my marriage to him?”

Jordy’s face darkened, the words caught in his throat. He cleared his throat, his nervousness palpable. “I haven't

had the chance yet.”

“But he was at your house yesterday, wasn’t he?” Corrie pressed, her tone sharp. “I know he was. That was the

perfect opportunity! Why didn’t you bring it up?”

Jordy’s back stiffened, beads of cold sweat trickling down his spine. “My wife was there. It wasn’t the right

moment. You have to understand.”

Corrie’s composure shattered like glass falling to the floor. Nothing had been done. Not a single thing.

“You wantto be more understanding?” she asked, her voice barely more than a whisper of disbelief. “But

Brook's having affair after affair, parading it in my face. Who's going to stand up for me?”

Jordy’s forehead was drenched in sweat, his attempts at reassurance weak. “Don’t worry, I've got it covered. |

promise, you won't be mistreated.”

Corrie’s lips twisted in disbelief. His promises felt empty. But for now, she had no choice but to trust him.

After all, that manipulative, conniving Jennie was being protected by Elyse and her clique. Corrie couldn't even

Jordy, eager to shift gears, grabbed her attention. “Con, we finally have a moment alone. Letshow you

It was clear what was on his mind. Sex was the one thing that brought him any sense of satisfaction.

Disgust flickered in Corrie’s eyes, but she quickly masked it, allowing Jordy’s hands to roam across her body.

Her voice dropped an octave, soft and sultry, her tone shifting. Before long, the room was filled with their

breathless whispers. Across the street, in a building that offered a direct line of sight into their half-open window,

a silent figure stood, watching in silence. Neither Jordy nor Corrie noticed, lost in their own world.

Later that evening, Elyse was absorbed in a book when a knock echoed at her door.
