“What are you thinking about?”

Corinne was suddenly pulled back from her thoughts when Jeremy scratched her lightly on the nose.He bent down lightly so that he could be at eye-level with her as she sat down on the bed.

“The barbecue grill was left unattended, so all the food got burnt. I’ve already asked someone to cooksome fresh food for you and he’ll bring it over later,” said Jeremy gently.

Corinne was full from the chicken wings Sunny gave her, so she did not really care whether therewould be new food coming in.

She raised her eyebrow slyly. “Mister, you’re not keeping any deep, dark secrets from me, right?”

Jeremy hesitated slightly. He then knelt down before here, looked her deeply into the eyes, and shookhis head. “No, I’m not.”

“Good.”

Corinne was satisfied with his answer. She did not take Anya’s bullsh*t at all. In fact, she would haveforgotten about the child matter if Anya had not smiled so creepily at her earlier.

After spending time with Jeremy for over two months, Corinne was sure about one thing-Jeremy’simpeccable character. She knew he was not the type that would abandon his own child.

Besides, knowing how much Anya liked to manipulate people, Corinne was also sure that Anya woulddefinitely use their ‘so-

2/3

called kid’ to make Jeremy marry her. It would be out of character for Anya to keep it a secret.

Jeremy looked at her and asked, “Why did you suddenly ask me that?”

Corinne shook her head. “Oh, it’s nothing. I was just curious, that’s all. By the way, do you want to trysome of Sunny’s chicken wings? They’re really good.”

She then picked up a chicken wing, which was sitting on top of the bedside table, and brought it over toJeremy’s mouth.

Jeremy smiled and opened up his mouth. “Mm. You’re right. It’s delicious. You should have more sinceyou like them so much, and we’ll go home after that.”

Corinne nodded. “Okay.”

Jeremy patted her on the head and looked at her with eyes full of adoration. “Eat up, my little rascal.”

He was secretly angry at himself for not taking better care of Corinne. His plan for the day was to bringher out to have some fun but in the end, the whole pond thing happened, so he swore to himself thathe would never let something like that happen again.

It was already late at night by the time Jeremy and Corinne got

back home.

He walked her to her room and said, “I’ll be going on an

overseas business trip tomorrow. Make sure to take good care of yourself while I’m not here, okay?Don’t go out too much and don’t make me worry.”

“How long will you be gone for?”

“Around half a month.”

Corinne frowned. “Why do you need to be there for so long?”

Jeremy narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Sounds like someone’s going to miss me. How about agoodbye kiss then?”

He bent down and tilted his head sideway.

Corinne smiled but the smile did not reach her eyes. She then patted Jeremy’s cheek and saidcheekily, “Haha, nice try, Mister. Have a safe trip and goodnight.”

After that, she went into her room and locked the door.

Jeremy was speechless. He did not know whether to laugh or

cry.

‘That cheeky little rascal. I’m only asking for a kiss. Why does she like to torment me so much?’

Half a month later, Corinne had been spending all her time designing the headquarters of HoldenGroup in the time that Jeremy was abroad.
