Corinne sat down and waited for Jeremy to change into a fresh set of clothes. She felt a little bored, soshe took out her cell phone and played a few games to pass the time.

Half an hour later, Jeremy said to her, “I’m ready. Let’s head out.”

She raised her head and was stunned to see him. It was rare for Jeremy to change into casualwear,and it was such a stark contrast from his business-like suits and leather shoes. Even his hair was notcombed into his usual serious, mature, and meticulous hairdo, and there was a touch of gentleness tohis determined expression.

“Have you had your fill of staring at me?” The man walked up to her and poked her forehead.

Corinne snapped back to her senses, rubbed her slightly- hurting forehead, and placed her phone intoher pocket.

She curled her lips and asked, “Can’t I look at you?”

The man cocked his eyebrow. “If you like looking at me so much, then why’d you let me sleep in thestudy every night? If you let me sleep with you in the room tonight, you can look at me as much as youwant. How about it?”

Corinne blushed, stood up, and said seriously, “I just think you look several years younger with thisgetup. Don’t read too much into my stares.”

Jeremy frowned in displeasure. “Do I tend to look old?”

Corinne nodded without hesitation. “Why do you think I

always call you ‘mister’?”

Jeremy lowered his gaze, leaned closer, and hooked her chin up. “Now that I’m not so old to youanymore, isn’t it about time you call me something else other than ‘mister’?”

Corinne thought for a while and said, “I’m hungry, bro! Let’s go!”

‘B-r-o?’

Jeremy was speechless.

Any girl who felt butterflies in their heart at that moment would not just call him ‘bro’ on such anoccasion! Jeremy massaged the space between his brows and followed the little girl forward helplessly.

Rather than asking his driver to drive them, Jeremy decided to drive a sports car and bring her to a villain the suburbs with a

mountain view.

Corinne got out of the car, looked around the quiet

environment, and felt that the house looked pretty nice. At the same time, her hunger grew stronger ashe smelled the aroma of barbecue wafting from the villa. Before she had time to ask whose home itbelonged to, Jeremy pulled her into the yard with him after parking the car.

The yard was exquisitely maintained, and one could tell that the homeowner was a person of greattaste. When they walked in, they saw Zeke, whom they had not seen in a while.

He stood by the barbecue grill with his shirt sleeves rolled up to his elbows. With a basting brush in hishand, he was busy

basting the chicken wings on the grill with honey. As soon as he heard footsteps, he raised his headand said with a smile, ” Hey! Jeremy’s here with the wifey!”

Corinne looked at Zeke and glanced over his shoulder to see the abundance of people on the otherside of the floor-to- ceiling windows of his living room. It seemed very lively there.

She had already keenly noticed that it was not an ordinary gathering, so she asked as soon as shewalked up to the grill, ” What’s the special day?”

Zeke raised his handsome eyebrows playfully. “It’s your boy Zeke’s thirtieth birthday! I invited everyoneover so we could chill and have a simple celebration.”

Corinne nodded. “I see. Happy birthday, then!”

“Thank you.”

Zeke smiled. He then intentionally stretched out a hand

toward her. “Don’t just give me your well wishes. Where’s my present?”

Corinne was speechless.

‘How would I have known that this was supposed to be a birthday party?!’
