At that moment, Lucas wished he could travel back in time to give the old him a slap or two for mistaking Corinne.

Meanwhile, back in the Holdens‘ mansion.

Corinne fished out her phone, which had been vibrating the whole time, from her pocket as soon as Lucas left the

house. It was a video call from Jeremy. She had put her phone on silent during the conversation she had with Lucas

and now that he had left, she could finally answer the video call.

Jeremy’s perfect and handsome face appeared on her phone screen as soon as she tapped on the ‘Answer‘ button.

“What were you doing just now? Why did it take you this long to answer my call?” he said angrily and coldly.

Corinne sat down languidly on the sofa. “I was eating just now.”

“Eating? With who?” Jeremy asked with a frown.

‘Someone from this house must have snitched on me!‘ thought Corinne. She pouted and said a little unhappily,

“Don’t you already know the answer to that?”

Jeremy narrowed his eyes; he decided to drop the pretense. “Why did Lucas come to see you when I’m not at

home? More importantly, why did he cook for you?”

Corinne thought Jeremy looked cute when he was jealous. She beamed a cheeky smile at him and said, “He’s

probably just bored and thought he would come to our place and show off his cooking skills.”

The words ‘our place‘ made Jeremy’s heart melt a little but his tone remained unhappy. “Why did you eat what he

made for you? Have you already forgotten that I specifically told you not to eat food cooked or brought by another

man?”

Corinne pouted again. “Well, I thought it would be alright since Lucas would not be that stupid to specially come to

our place to poison me, right?”

–

There it was again our place. Hearing those two little words made it very hard for Jeremy to stay mad at Corinne.

Thus, he sighed and asked seriously, “So what was the reason for his visit?”

“It’s a long story. I’ll tell you when you’re back. You should focus on your work now.”

The frown on Jeremy’s forehead became deeper. It was obvious he was not happy with her answer. ‘It’s not like

Lucas to come to our place unless something really serious happened… so the fact that he would do so must mean

he has some serious business with Corinne and yet that little rascal has the cheek to make me wait for her answer!‘

“Mister, look what I got!” Corinne held up the money for him to see.

Not lacking any money himself, Jeremy simply looked at the green pieces of paper in her hand with a raised

eyebrow. “What about it?”

“I finally got the salary Lucas owed me for the work I did in Rivera Group! It had dragged on for so long I thought I

was never going to get it back.” Corinne beamed happily at the stern

Jeremy through the phone screen. “Let’s go out for dinner tonight. It’ll be my treat!”

At that moment, the unhappy frown on Jeremy’s forehead finally disappeared. He could not stand just how

adorable Corinne was. “Why, that’s very generous of you.”

“Of course!” Corinne lifted her chin proudly. “And I don’t do this for everyone so you should count yourself lucky,

Mister.”

“Oh, really? Which restaurant do you have in mind then?” Jeremy asked with a smile.
