The man smiled at her while his dark eyes sparkled flirtatiously.

Corinne frowned in alarm when she realized who the man was. “What are you doing here?”

Jason was wearing a well-tailored dark brown suit. His innate nobility mixed with a little impishnessradiated from his whole body as he smiled and said, “I heard two of the paintings

Corinne raised an eyebrow. “Well, sorry to say but Lady Luck doesn’t seem to be on your today. You’rejust one step too late ’cause I’ve already bought the two paintings.”

side

Jason took one step toward her and the smile on his face became even wider. His eyes seemed to bedrawing her in and he said, “No, that’s where you’re wrong. Lady Luck is indeed on my side because Icame here to see you and here you are.”

The corners of Corinne’s lips twitched for a moment. ‘He’s still as flirtatious as ever.”

Previously, she wanted to buy the three Nellie Nymphaea paintings in his gallery but not only did he notsell them to her but he even teased her about it. Later, she only managed to get the three paintingswith Jeremy’s help. Therefore, it was not weird that Jason knew about her obsession with NellieNymphaea.

There was one other thing she could not help but think Jason and Jeremy were in it together since thetwo of them were friends for many years. Thinking of this, Corinne became even more cautious. “Youcame here to see me? Why?”

Jason narrowed his eyes. “I have something to discuss with you.”

“And that is?”

Jason smiled. “Why don’t we grab a bite together after the exhibition? It’s been a long time. since welast saw each other so it’ll be great if we can sit down and catch up with each other.”

Corinne was not interested in that. “Sorry, but I’m not free after this. If you have something to say tome, you can say it now. And if you can’t, then the matter must not be urgent so it can

wait.”

Jason did not know whether to laugh or cry; he was, in fact, a little hurt by her heartlessness.

“Corinne, we’re friends, right?”

Corinne suddenly remembered how he helped her to get a change of clothing after she fell into thepond and how after that, she agreed to be his friend.

“Yeah, I guess so.”

“Do you treat all your friends this cold?”

Corinne frowned. “Why don’t you just tell me what is it you came here to see me fort? I don’t like itwhen others beat around the bush!”

Jason sighed helplessly. He then smiled wryly and said, “Corinne, you don’t have to put your guard uparound me. I just wanted to help you.”

Corinne was unmoved. “Help me? How?”

Jason stepped closer to her and looked at her bare face with passion in his eyes.

“Corinne, I might not know why but I can tell you’re looking for Nellie Nymphaea and I might be able tohelp you with that.”

Corinne’s eyes turned sharp. It was obvious he got her attention. “You know where she is?”

Jason smiled mysteriously. He deliberately avoided answering her question to keep her curiosityburning and instead asked, “Now do you want to have lunch with me?”
