Chapter 661
The man continued, “I know it’s very wrong for a married man to accompany another woman to adopt a child, so I
didn’t know how to tell you. But I couldn’t refuse Anya’s request either because she saved my life years ago by
sacrificing herself and was poisoned, resulting in irreversible damage to her body. She can never conceive again. So
I’ve always felt deeply indebted to her and tolerated some of her inappropriate behaviors.”
Corinne relaxed and lowered her gaze, listening to him speak.
“You asked me before what Anya lost because of me. I didn’t say it because I promised the Riveras that I wouldn’t
disclose the fact that their Miss Anya can’t conceive and couldn’t tell anyone. But I was wrong. You’re not just
anyone; I should have been honest with you and told you all this earlier.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA strange sense of bitterness filled Corinne’s heart. She was even a little unaccustomed to seeing this cold and
dominant man speaking so humbly in front of her.
Jeremy held her tighter as if he was still worried and afraid that she might be angry and run away again. “Anya
always said that she loves children and wants to have her own. But she can’t conceive anymore. Later, she asked
for my help. She wanted me to accompany her to an adoption agency abroad to adopt a child. The reason is that
they don’t require marriage there, and couples in a relationship are allowed to adopt. She said that as long as I help
her with this favor, it would settle the debt of saving my life back then, and she won’t disturb our lives anymore.”
“Before you appeared, Anya used to cling to me, and I could tolerate it to some extent. But after you came into my
life, it would be unfair to you if I continued to have excessive contact with other women. So, I’ve always hoped to
make up for my debt to Anya as soon as possible, and that’s why I agreed.”
Corinne frowned upon hearing this and raised her head to glance at him. “But later on, weren’t you frequently with
Anya and that child?”
Jeremy sighed, “I’ve never raised a child before, so I didn’t anticipate there would be so many problems involved in
raising one. I oversimplified things.”
“After returning to the country, Anya said she couldn’t tell her family about the adoption for the time being. She was
afraid they wouldn’t understand and would send the child away. She asked me to temporarily arrange a place for
her and the child to live.
“There were also many issues with raising the child. Whenever she encountered something she didn’t understand,
she would call me in a panic, asking me what to do. I arranged childcare experts for them gradually.”
“However, she still occasionally called me, asking for help with different excuses. After all, I was the one who helped
her adopt the child, so I had a responsibility. If there was something I could do to help, I would try to go there.”
“But it was just to lend a hand. Usually, after helping them solve the problem, I would leave. Other than that, there

Hmph!
Corinne sneered inwardly. This was Indeed a tactic that Anya would use.
After the man finished explaining, he asked her, “Do you have any more doubts? I can explain everything clearly.*
Corinne shook her head. “No.”
The man sat up straight. “You have no more questions, but I do. Now it’s my turn to ask you!”
Corinne blinked. “What other questions do you have?”
The man narrowed his sharp eyes and stared at her trembling eyelashes. “What is your relationship with Aaron
Rhode from Newmoon Group?”
Corinne looked embarrassed and opened her mouth. “We- we’re husband and wife.!”
The man furrowed his brow. “Tell me the truth!”
