Jeremy helped Corinne tighten the coat around her.
“Eat it while it’s still hot. Tommy bought a lot, so it should be enough for you all to share.”
Corinne stared into Jeremy’s gentle eyes. “Alright, thanks for the trouble.”
Jeremy frowned. ‘She’s acting like we’re strangers! Though, this is definitely better than her ignoring me.’
Corinne was about to go in when she remembered something.

“Why should I be surprised? The circle of the rich isn’t that big, so you guys would always inform each other when
something big happened. It’s not that surprising that you’ll come here.”
Corinne’s calmness and intelligence were why Jason liked her.
“So the Riveras’ mansion was where you’ve been staying for the past two days. Why didn’t you tell me?” asked
Jason.
“Why should I tell you? So you can come here when you have nothing better to do? Besides, I didn’t tell you, yet
you’re here anyway.”
