Jeremy was no longer in the room by the time Corinne changed her clothes and came out—not that she cared where he went anyway. After all, their marriage was nothing more than a cooperation, and the validity period was only three months. At the end of that period, they would once again part ways, never to see each other again.
Corinne locked the door and drifted into slumber.
Early the next morning, Corinne was woken up by one of the maids knocking on the door. “Miss, I was told by Mister Jeremy to hand you your clothes! Miss!”
The noisy voice woke Corinne up before she could even get enough sleep. Unfortunately, though, she did not have any choice because she was living under someone else’s roof. There was nothing she could do except to get up, open the door, and take the clothes that the maid wanted to hand over to her.
After bathing and changing into her clothes, Corinne decided to head out of the room and get something to eat. Alas, a basin of smelly cold water was splashed all over her.
Moments after, she heard laughter.
Her eyes were blurred by the smelly water, and she was unable to make head or tail of what was going on until the majority of the water flowed down from her head. In front of her was an unknown girl who was about her age. The girl had put on exquisite makeup, and she seemed to be a haughty personality judging from the somewhat arrogant smirk on her lips.
Several of the Holdens’ maids surrounded the girl like stars around the moon, and one of them was holding an empty water basin in her hand. It was pretty obvious that the smelly, dirty water had been splashed all over Corinne’s body.
Corinne frowned slightly, blinked her eyes to get rid of the water from her wet eyelashes, and looked at the unknown girl calmly. She then asked, “Who are you? And why did you splash that water all over me?”
The girl had applied the latest lipstick on her lips, and they parted open slightly as she raised her neck proudly, saying, “My name’s Francine. I’m the Holdens’ young miss, and Jeremy’s my brother!”
It turned out that the girl was Corinne’s ‘sister-in-law’! Corinne cocked an eyebrow and asked, “So, why did you splash the water on me?”
Francine raised her chin and looked at Corinne with contempt. “I did so you’d know your place! Don’t get the false impression that you’ll become the young madam just because you’ve married into the family! You’re not fit for the role!”
