Chapter 1639:
The idea of Corrine having a boyfriend—it didn’t compute. In his mind, she wasn’t someone who could belong to
anyone. She was... above all that. Too untouchable. Too sacred.
Yet while he'd been away, someone had dared to step into her world. Someone had slipped past his watch,
touched what shouldn't be touched, and tainted his angel. Unforgivable.
And if he ever found out who it was, that man would regret it for the rest of his miserable life.
Corrine glanced back at him. His expression was a readable map of every emotion storming through him. She
arched a brow. “My boyfriend. You coming?”
“Yes!” he blurted, far too fast. His mind hadn't caught up, but his mouth had already made the decision for him.
Taylor drove them back ten minutes faster than Corrine had earlier. Clearly, he was eager to meet this daring
boyfriend.
At the Serenity Garden parking lot, Taylor stalked close behind Corrine like a well-trained hound, sharp-eyed and
ever-present. Anyone who dared glance at her for too long met the full weight of his scowl.

whenever he pleased. Status? Unquestioned. Power? Readily available.
And yet Corrine had rejected him outright. She had said he didn’t meet her standards.
That sentence had seared into his memory like a brand, and he’d never quite healed from it.
So, what kind of man had she accepted? What did he have that Taylor didn't?
Corrine didn’t hesitate with her answer. “We're engaged.” She paused, then added, “In other words—there’s no
one else I'd ever marry.”
As if summoned by fate itself, Nate appeared at the entrance of Serenity Garden, catching her words just as they
fell from her lips. For a second, his heartbeat picked up—hard.
Taylor turned and saw him—and froze. “Nate Hopkins? What are you doing here?”
Corrine’s eyes flicked between the two men, her brow lifting. “You two know each other?”

Nate looked at Corrine, his grip on her waist tightening slightly.
“Why don’t you ask him?”
Corrine blinked, momentarily thrown off. Was he... jealous?
She gave a small, reassuring smile. “I'd rather hear it from you.”
Taylor, caught off guard, froze for a moment.
