Jeremy straightened Corinne’s face and continued to lead her to the platform so as not to miss the nexttrain.

As they walked, Jeremy solemnly called her name, “Corinne Carew, let’s start over.‘

Corinne tilted her head, raised her eyebrows, and looked at him incredulously. “How?”

“We’ll start by going on dates with each other. What do you say? Will you give this old man a chance?”

Corinne frowned and, giving it much thought, replied, Mister, I don’t think we’re—”

She was cut off before she said the word ‘suitable‘.

Jeremy did not let her finish her sentence. “Don’t be so fast to turn me down. Give me a chance topursue you again. Don’t worry. From now on, I won’t force you to live my life. I’ll try to learn to live theway you live too. You like to take the subway to go out. You like to eat street food. You like to go toescape rooms. You like to watch movies. All this I can go with you.

“But of course, I’ll take you to the best restaurants in the city too so that you can enjoy the mostluxurious life imaginable. I want to give you all the best in this world. As long as you want it and as longas I have it, I’ll give anything to you.”

No woman would be able to resist such an offer coming from a handsome man with a deep melodiousvoice.

Corinne’s heart actually skipped a beat, but the corners of her lips curled up with sarcasm. “Mister, youshould be ashamed of yourself. Didn’t you say the same thing to Miss Anya not long ago?”

However, her words were drowned out by a howling sound the subway train had arrived. The subwaytrain rushed past them before coming to a screeching halt.

Corinne was not sure whether Jeremy had heard what she said. He did not say anything back to herand just pulled her by the hand into the subway train.

It was rush hour, and a lot of people were taking the subway. There were no free seats, so they had nochoice but to remain standing.

It was easy to spot Jeremy from the crowd since he was a good head taller than anyone there. Not tomention, he had a certain something about him that always made others see him as extraordinary. Theother women in the carriage kept sneaking glances at him with starry eyes.

Corinne was forced to squeeze into his arms; there was not the slightest room for her to move around.Their bodies were so close that they could even feel each other’s heartbeat.

Corinne felt so awkward that she started to wriggle away from Jeremy in a bid to keep some distancebetween them. However, the passengers standing next to her were all men, and Jeremy would neverallow the love of his life to have any physical contact with them.

He wrapped his arms around her, pressed her tightly in his arms, and gently ordered, “Stay still. Don’tmove.”

Corinne was not happy, but she quieted down after Jeremy put his chin on her head and started toexplain in a low voice, ”

There is nothing between me and Anya. I see her as my savior and nothing more. I told you that sheonce saved me, and because of that, she became weak and sickly. I owe her, so in some cases, I can’tjust ignore her.”

It turned out that he had heard what she said before getting into the carriage.

“So you promised yourself to her, then?” Corinne asked pointedly.

Jeremy frowned. “You’re talking nonsense again! She was only ten years old at that time. How was Isupposed to promise myself to her?”

Corinne snorted coldly. “Well, nothing is stopping you from doing that now that she’s all grown up.”

Jeremy knew that she was just saying those things out of anger, and at the same time, he felt a littlehappy because the fact that she was angry meant that she cared about him after all. He could not helpbut smile after coming to this conclusion.

He lightly rubbed his chin against the top of her head. “Do you really want me to do that?”

“Be my guest. It has nothing to do with me anyways,” said Corinne unhappily.

“Well, how about I promise myself to you instead? I’m willing to give you my heart and my body if you’llhave it.”
