Chapter 514

Jeremy's response stunned Corinne. She started to blush with embarrassment when she recalled what happened that fateful night.

Jeremy's eyes softened when he saw her blushing like that. Her reaction was exactly what he had been hoping for. He wished that she would act shyly and nervously—like a girl with raging hormones—around him.

After all, they had not seen each other for a month. He hated how she did not seem happy or surprised to see him. In fact, she completely ignored his existence.

"Corinne Carew," Jeremy called out her full name in that deep and seductive voice of his. Being called by one's full name was never a good thing in any kind of relationship.

Corinne looked warily at him. "Mister Jeremy, if you have something you want to tell me, just say it!"

He pinched her chin and tilted her face up.

"Why are you calling me Mister Jeremy instead of just Mister?"

Corinne thought he was acting a bit odd. She could not tell whether he was unhappy or actually flirting with her.
