Chapter 301
Faced with the pressure, the police officer anxiously tried to string his sentences together and give Jeremy a
reasonable explanation for why Corinne had to be handcuffed to the bed. After all, he had heard from the
confrontation earlier that Corinne was Jeremy’s wife.
However, Jeremy did not say anything and merely walked past the policeman and placed the cup in his hand back
on the cabinet beside the hospital bed. The end of the straw was already flattened from his chewing on it.
After placing down the cup, Jeremy stood beside the hospital bed and glanced at Corinne with a convoluted and
incomprehensible expression.
Corinne’s indifference wavered somewhat when she faced his silent gaze. She frowned, looked right into his eyes,
and lowered her face again as she said sullenly, “I didn’t do it.”

Corinne was startled and looked up at him again. ‘What does he mean, okay? Doesn’t he doubt me even when the
evidence is foolproof?‘
However, he did not say another word, and it was therefore impossible for her to guess his thoughts.
Corinne frowned, looked away, and turned to the policeman beside him. “Excuse me, officer, I can see my lawyer
now,
right?”

The police officer nodded in a businesslike manner. “You’re allowed to.”
Corinne said, “Please pass me the phone, then. I’ll give him a call.”
The man opened his mouth and offered to her, “I have a lawyer. I can-”
Corinne had a stubborn look on her face as she said, “No need to trouble yourself. I know a lawyer!”
Jeremy’s expression sank, and he reached out to take the cell phone from the cabinet for her. He then turned
around and left without saying anything. As soon as Jeremy went out, Anya’s gaze followed him, and she wanted to
break free from her brother’s arms to chase after him.
Lucas was worried about letting Anya run off to chase after Jeremy, so he glanced intently at Corinne before going
out with his sister.

His handsome eyes almost seemed to be burning with a flame.
Sunny’s attitude led Corinne to cock her eyebrow. “What’s the matter? Are you going to hit me?”
Sunny roared, “I’m so disappointed in you, Corinne!”
Corinne smiled softly and said, “Well, guess you’ll have to die of disappointment, then.”

Sunny gritted his teeth. “You…”
“Don’t bother entertaining that sort of person, Sunny! The police will deal with him!” Rosie walked up to them, shot
Corinne a smug look of contempt, and dragged Sunny away as he wallowed in disappointment and anger.
After all the people in the ward had left, Corinne picked up her cell phone and dialed Aaron’s encrypted number.
“Tell Gabriel from the legal department to meet me at the hospital.”
Aaron was puzzled. “Why are you at the hospital, boss? What happened?”
“It’s not a big deal. Do as I say and tell Gabriel to come here alone. You don’t have to follow.”
“Understood!”
