Jeremy stroked Corinne’s head lovingly. “Good girl. You did the right thing.”
Corinne was not used to him treating her like this since they had not seen each other for many days.
Corinne frowned and looked straight into his eyes. “Mister, when did you get back? Why did you come here?”
Jeremy rested his chin on her forehead and huskily spoke, “I took the flight back home last night. And why did I
come here, you ask? Well, I wouldn’t need to if you had just listened to me and stayed home instead of coming
here. I can’t help but think you’re doing this to avoid seeing me.”
His warm breath tickled her face as he spoke, causing her to blush. “So is this your way of giving me a surprise?”
she asked a little unhappily.
“I guess you can say that,” said Jeremy.
Corinne frowned. “I appreciate your thought, but I’ve told you that I don’t like surprises! Next time, please let me
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtknow in advance when you’re coming back.”
It was true. Corinne did not like surprises, having to guess, or the unknown. What she preferred was having her
ducks in the row.
Jeremy pulled her into a hug and buried his face into her neck to breathe in her scent. He had sorely missed her
scent while he was on his business trip.
“Okay, I promise you I’ll do that next time.”
Finding it hard to breathe as she was being squeezed tightly, Corinne started struggling. However, she gave up after
a while as Jeremy seemed to hug her even tighter the more she struggled.
“Mister, I have another question!” she said with a pout.
Jeremy rubbed his stubbled chin on her shoulder. “Ask away.”
“Where are my clothes? I remember wearing them to sleep last night! How come I’m naked when I wake up?” she
said crabbily.
Jeremy traced Corinne’s spine with his finger, as though he wanted to commit every dip and rise of her skin into his
memory, while teasing her into submission.
“I wanted to hug you so badly since it’s been so long since we saw each other. But your clothes were getting in the
way,” he whispered seductively into her ear.
Corinne felt a minor electric current jolting through her body whenever Jeremy touched her, causing her to get
goosebumps. On one hand, she thoroughly enjoyed the feeling, but on the other, she was still angry at him.
“So you took off my clothes without first asking me?” she asked, frowning.
Jeremy chuckled softly. “As your husband, I have every right to take off your clothes whenever and wherever I want.
Or would you have preferred I wake you up the next time so you can take them off yourself?”
Corinne frowned. “Are you sure you did nothing more than hug me last night?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJeremy did not answer her question, but his silence said it all.
‘It was pointless to ask him that question. Knowing him, he would of course take advantage of me while I’m
sleeping,’ thought Corinne. This just made her even angrier.
“Well, you had me for the whole night, so you can let me go now,” said Corinne.
“No. I haven’t had enough of you yet,” said Jeremy, hugging her tighter.
Corinne was starting to get annoyed. “I’m starving. I want to go wash up and eat my breakfast now!”
“I only arrived at the airport at two in the morning, and it took me another hour to get here, so I didn’t really get to
sleep much. Be a good girl and lie here with me for just a while more, and I’ll bring you out to eat later, okay?”
For a moment, Corinne was very tempted to do as he said. However, she remembered the woman on the phone,
and her anger flared up again.
“No! I’m not tired anymore; sleeping anymore will just give me a headache. You can sleep all you want if you’re
tired, but I’m getting up!”
She tried to break free from Jeremy’s embrace, but…
