Chapter 1176

Sophia put her hand on the balcony railing and fluttered her eyelashes at Jeremy. “I’m just saying ‘if’! I mean, would you take another woman as your wife if you can’t find Miss Corinne?”

“There’s no ‘if’ in this matter.”

Sophia pouted. “What a spoilsport! There’s no harm in imagining a different scenario.”

Jeremy glanced at her. “Just what are you trying to say here?”

Sophia beamed at him. “What I’m trying to say is… If you can’t find Miss Corinne, I’ll be willing to live with you as a partner. I mean, we’re already legally married abroad, so that makes us husband and wife too, right?”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

Indeed, they had gotten legally married abroad. Back then, Greg refused to undergo a life-saving surgery unless Jeremy got married. Thus, to appease his grandfather, he decided to find a woman to go through a fake marriage with him.

He chose Sophia because they had known each other for a long time, and there was no drama between them so he asked her to help him. After they got legally married abroad, Jeremy took the marriage certificate back to New Capital City to show Greg.

However, Greg was no old fool. Fearing Jeremy would get a divorce the instant he got the surgery, Greg told him that it was not enough for him to register their marriage. Jeremy would also need to announce their engagement and have a wedding in New Capital City.

Jeremy had no choice but to agree to Greg’s terms. However, Sophia failed to turn up at the wedding on time due to terrible flight conditions. It was also on that day, Jeremy met Corinne for the first time. After she kissed him, he dragged her to the wedding to complete the ceremony.

Much later, he slowly forgot about the marriage certificate he got with Sophia as they did not really stay in contact after the wedding. Jeremy had every intention to get legally married to Corinne since he planned to spend the rest of his life with her.

However, he knew the city hall could find out about his marriage abroad, and Corinne would definitely be mad once she learned of the situation. Thus, he planned to explain everything to her only after revoking his marriage with Sophia.

Jeremy thought Sophia would readily agree to the ‘divorce’, but she refused to cooperate with him unless she was given some sort of compensation. She said her prospect of finding another partner in the future had been greatly diminished since she would have to carry the stigma of being a divorcee.

Jeremy knew that, so he agreed to compensate her. The tricky part was that Sophia did not want compensation in the form of money. What she really wanted was for him to stay with her in Molomia for a month, then she would agree to the divorce.

Since he happened to have a new project in Molomia that required him to personally oversee the kickoff, he agreed to stay with her. However, things obviously did not go according to his plan.
