As Jeremy closed in on her, Corinne’s bright eyes shifted awkwardly. “Because I hate the smell ofcigarettes!”

Jeremy frowned, bending over to lean closer toward her. He exhaled a puff of smoke above her headas if he was bullying her, then said with a slightly mocking tone, “If you hate the smell of cigarettes, stayaway from me.”

Upon saying that, he put out his cigarette by rubbing it against the wall behind Corinne, then he threw itinto the trash can in front of him, hitting a bullseye.

Corinne hugged the wall as she walked, to begin with, so after Jeremy stopped her and closed in onher, she leaned back until there was no way she could retreat anymore.

At that moment, Corinne was almost completely in the man’s arms with her back against the wall andhis arm above her head. She frowned, exhibiting resistance, and glared at the man unhappily, “How amI supposed to stay away from you with you being like this? Please move, Mister Jeremy, and I’llcertainly stay away from you!”

The man seemed to have seen through something in her eyes. He squinted, exuding a dangerous air.“Are you very nervous, Miss Corinne?”

Corinne was speechless.

He was so close to her that he already went over the limit for a normal social distance. Anybody wouldbe nervous in that situation!

Jeremy did not plan to retreat. He stared into her eyes as if he was not going to stop until he piercethrough her soul.

There was practically no space between them as they looked into each other’s eyes, filling an unusualair around them.

Jeremy kept feeling that this woman did not seem like she was truly already married. It seemed like shehid something.

“Dear, I’ll get jealous if you stand so close to another man in front of our home!” Suddenly, a man’sgentle yet accusatory voice could be heard coming from another direction.

It was Aaron.

Aaron looked at them, smiling with an eyebrow raised. “Mister Jeremy, could you please stay awayfrom my wife? I’m an easily jealous man. I don’t like other men getting too close to my woman!”

Jeremy frowned. He was just suspecting if Corinne was in a false marriage earlier. At that moment, hesaw her husband appearing, looking jealous. The bit of suspicion he had was completely dispelled.

He pulled back his arm that was pushing against the wall and straightened his back, letting Corinne go.

It was only then Corinne could break herself free. She immediately distanced herself from thedangerous man and walked to her subordinate, Aaron.

Aaron’s acting was superb. He held her shoulders and said gently, “Dear, why did you trouble MisterJeremy to take you home again? It’s not good to keep troubling others. You have to call me next timeand ask me to pick you up. Got it?”

Corinne could not help but be made speechless by Aaron’s acting. However, she had to cooperate withhim. “Oh, I got it! Were you in a meeting just now? I was afraid I’ll interrupt you! I just met MisterJeremy not too far away in front. He helped me drive a few evil people with ill intentions. We thenwandered here together!”

“So that’s what happened!” Aaron smiled gently and thoughtfully at Corinne, then he looked up at theman with a sullen expression in the near distance. Putting on a fake smile, he said, ‘ What a helpfulperson you are, Mister Jeremy. You liked to rescue the damsel in distress and. send another person’swife home so much!”

His words sounded like he was claiming his rights over her a little.

Feeling complicated, Jeremy shot a glance at Corinne, who was standing beside another man, then helooked at Aaron with a cold, harsh gaze. “If you care about your wife, have a few more peopleprotecting her these few days, don’t let her go to work, and fulfill your responsibility as a husband!”

“My wife is working purely because of her interest. I respect her, so of course, I will also do my best tofulfill my responsibility to her. Even if I am lacking in any way, there’s no need for you. to do my job forme!”

The tension between them rose as they spoke to each other.

Jeremy looked at Aaron, who was looking down at him indifferently from the corner of his eye, thensneered a little, exuding a murderous air around him. “If you don’t give others a chance, nobody will beable to do your job for you!”
