Jeremy did not look at Sophia. With the cigarette still between his fingers, he emotionlessly replied, “Sure. Get in.”
Sophia looked smug for a second before walking around to get in from the other side of the car. After she sat
beside him, Jeremy puffed out another cloud of smoke before gesturing with his chin to the driver as a signal for
him to drive off.
The car started moving steadily. Sophia looked out the window for a while before turning back to look at Jeremy.
She then blinked innocently and asked, “Jeremy, why the long face? Did you fight with Corinne?”
Instead of answering her, Jeremy asked her coldly, “Where do you want to go? Back to your hotel, or the party?”
Sophia pretended to give some thought to the question before answering, “I’d like to go back to my hotel. The party
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtis about to end soon, so there’s no point going back there. I’ll call Zeke later to tell them I’ve gone back to the hotel
and ask them to help me entertain the guests.”
“Okay,” said Jeremy. He gave the driver a look from the rearview mirror.
The driver made a turn in front and drove toward the hotel where Sophia was staying.
Sophia did not give up on getting an answer out of Jeremy. “You still haven’t answered my questions! Is Corinne still
unwilling to forgive you?”
Jeremy stubbed out his cigarette. “I don’t want to talk about her.”
“Oh dear. It looks like it won’t be that easy to clear up the misunderstanding, huh? But don’t you find it odd? I mean,
you’re so good to her, so by right, she should trust you more. All that, and she doesn’t!”
Jeremy chuckled coldly and said nothing. ‘I’d like to know why too,’ he thought mockingly.
Sophia continued to talk to him, but she gradually fell silent as Jeremy barely responded. She was also worried that
Jeremy would find her annoying should she misspoke.
20 minutes later, the car stopped in front of Sophia’s hotel. The driver turned and said, “Miss Sophia, we’ve
arrived.”
Sophia nodded and got out of the car, but before she closed the door, she bent down and said, “Jeremy, you really
look like you need some cheering up. Why don’t you come up to my room for some drinks?”
…
After he got to Corinne’s apartment, Jason rang long and hard at the doorbell, but no one came to answer it. He
tried calling her, but her phone seemed to have been switched off. He was so worried about her that he felt his
heart was about to explode.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSuddenly, the door opened. Sunny, who looked like he had just woken up, appeared in front of him.
“Jason? What are you doing here?” asked Sunny in surprise.
In a fit of panic, Jason simply pushed him aside and went into the apartment to look for Corinne.
“Sunny, is Corinne back yet?” he asked when he discovered Corinne was not in her room either.
Sunny scratched his head. “Corinne? She’s not back yet. Isn’t she supposed to be at Sophia’s birthday party?”
‘Sh*t!’ thought Jason.
“Jason, what happened? Didn’t Corinne go to Sophia’s birthday party?” asked Sunny in confusion.
“She did but she left early. She should be home by now,” said Jason.
