Jeremy then ended the call as he did not want to hear Pamela’s nagging. He then turned to Tommy and said, “Go
back home to
collect the chicken soup later.”
Tommy nodded. “Yes, Mister Jeremy. Do you need me to deliver it to Miss Corinne?”
“No. I’ll drink it instead.”
Tommy was a little taken aback by his answer. “But Miss Pamela made it for Miss Corinne, right? Are you really

it?”
Jeremy massaged his temples. “God knows what Grandma put into the soup. She might think whatever she puts
into the soup is
good for Corinne, but that can’t be further from the truth.”
Tommy nodded again. “Okay, I understand.”
After that, Jeremy took out his phone and tapped into his conversation with Corinne. His gaze instinctively softened
when he saw
the good night message she sent last night.
His fingers flew across the on-screen keyboard. [Are you awake?]
After a while, he received a photo of a half-eaten breakfast.
His eyes narrowed. [Why did you wake up so early when you slept so late last night?]
[Why did you message me so early if you think I should still be sleeping? Are you deliberately trying to disturb my
sleep?]
Jeremy frowned. [You little smart*ss. Can I see you later?]
[Where?]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJeremy had a place in mind, but he was not sure whether she would allow him to meet him there.
[Is it okay if I go to the Riveras’ mansion to meet you?]
Corinne replied instantly, [No. We better see less of each other until that problem is solved.]
Jeremy sighed with resignation. He knew he was in the wrong, so he did not insist on having things his way.
At that moment, he received a selfie photo of Corinne glaring at him. [Here. You can see me like this.] Jeremy’s
tense expression gave way into a smile. He chuckled softly and replied, [You cheeky little rascal.] Even though it was
not a very flattering photo of Corinne, Jeremy could not help but think she was the cutest person on earth! ...
Meanwhile, at the Riveras’ mansion.
