Chapter 131

If Corinne shared a drink with another man, it would be equivalent to walking blindfolded into Jeremy's minefield. The consequences would be disastrous, so the plan could not be executed.After giving it some thought, Corinne tried to bargain with Jason. "How about another time? I'll drink as many cups with you as you want."Jason was unmoved. "No can do. It's either now or never. Time waits for no man…or woman."'D*mn him!' Corinne felt a little embarrassed and turned to look at Jeremy. He was still drinking tea while facing the other side and was not paying attention to her at all.She looked back at Jason and eventually confirmed with him. "Let me get this straight. You'll give me Nellie Nymphaea's works for free as long as I drink with you, correct?"Jason smiled and nodded without hesitation. "I'll have them sent with you immediately if you can do it."Corinne turned around and looked at the tea table again. Jeremy was still as languid as ever as he faced the other side. He

The atmosphere in the tea room returned to normal once Corinne went out, but Goran was a little unhappy because he was interrupted in the middle of his speech. He ignored what happened with that churlish assistant and turned to continue introducing his movie script to Jeremy, Zeke, and Gerald.Sherlyn dutifully leaned over to pour tea for the three presidents, and she took the opportunity to get closer when she poured a cup for Jeremy.All of a sudden, he stood up coldly and said, "Excuse me."...When Jeremy went out of the tea room and looked around, his face soured when he saw no trace of Corinne.There was a separate toilet for VIPs at the entrance of the tea room that catered to all genders, and the restroom door opened suddenly with Corinne poking her head out from inside."I'm here, Mister," she said, then ducked her head back in and left the door open for him.Jeremy narrowed his eyes, strode over, and walked into the restroom. He then closed the restroom door shut with

'Sigh. He saw me after all…'Without waiting for Corinne to give a reason to explain, the man leaned over and approached her for a while with a stern, oppressive tone. "Didn't I forbid you from drinking anything other people offer you? Did you forget what I said?"There was such a disparity in height that Corinne was forced to tilt her neck upward uncomfortably. "I didn't. I remember..."Jeremy lifted her small face forcibly again, with his fingers pinching her cheeks gently and the web between his index finger and thumb propping her chin up. He held her condescendingly and said, "And you still did it?”Corinne explained uncomfortably. "Mister, it's not what you think..."The man's face was calm as usual, but there was a bit of sullen annoyance in his expression. "How do you think I should feel when my wife is drinking with another man in front of me?"Corinne was helpless. She knew she had been wrong and could only say concisely to him, "That's because he has something I want!"

"I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid… To take a stand, to take a stand… It's been a ride… Everybody..."Corinne snapped back to her senses when her phone suddenly rang, and the suggestive atmosphere between her and Jeremy disappeared in a second.As she faced the man's long dark eyes, she backed away uncomfortably and took out her cell phone to look at the caller ID. It turned out to be Sherlyn. Before she could answer the phone, Sherlyn's voice sounded outside the restroom, and there was a knock on the restroom door."I know you're in there, Corinne. I heard your horrendous ringtone coming from inside! Come out of here right now! Stop slacking off, hiding in the restroom!"Corinne frowned, looked up at the man, and shrugged her shoulders while saying, "Did you hear that? Sherlyn's looking for me. I need to go out."Jeremy looked down at her and did not react.Corinne moved off him, thought for a moment, and then said, "Wait here, and don't go out after me. If she sees us inside the s

Sherlyn was startled by the sight of Jeremy. 'What in the world is going on? Why did Jeremy come out as soon as that b*tch Corinne left? Were they both in there earlier?!'As soon as she realized that possibility, Sherlyn had an incredulous look and immediately became wary soon after. Jeremy had been looking at Corinne rather strangely when she was pouring tea for them earlier, and Corinne was a little vixen good at seducing men. Perhaps Corinne had spilled that tea on purpose just to attract his attention and hook up with him.Having come to that conclusion, Sherlyn felt an unbearable pain in her heart and she wanted to get to the bottom of what happened. A charming smile appeared across her face as she walked toward Jeremy. She asked innocuously and curiously, "Mister Jeremy, my assistant just came out of that restroom. Why did you come out right after her? Did the two of you share the same restroom earlier?""Your assistant?" Jeremy glanced at Sherlyn coldly and gave her an icy t

Jeremy went back to the tea room and sat for a while longer.Goran was still going on with the script of his new movies. All the while, he had been talking to himself because the rest of the four people were talking to each other. Until the very end, none of them actually paid attention to Goran.'I guess I'm not getting any investment funds from these four people today…' Goran thought.He looked at the time helplessly. It was getting late if he continued to hold on to them he might irritate them even more. Without a choice, he got up, used a glorified excuse to bid goodbye to them together with Sherlyn, and left the room.When there were no outsiders in the room, Zeke joked amusingly, "Hey, Jeremy. Where's your wife?"Jason was also curious. "Yeah, Jeremy. Where is Corinne?"'Corinne? When is Jason so close with Corinne?' Jeremy thought.He raised his brow and looked at the man. "Do you have something to do with her?"With an appealing face, Zeke asked, "Nothing. I'm just curi

A chill ran up Tommy's spine. He looked to the back of the car and explained innocently, "Sir, I had to deal with an urgent matter at the company, so I didn't accompany Miss Corinne to the subsidiary company. I did call Mister Feldman before I left, and he said Miss Corinne was the one who insisted on becoming an assistant."Jeremy's eyebrows furrowed as he said nothing. Tommy could not tell what Jeremy was feeling as his expression looked dead calm.Tommy carefully continued, "I'll arrange a much lighter job for Miss Corinne tomorrow."Still, Jeremy remained indifferent. He said, "Ignore her. If this is the job she chose, then let her be.""... Yes," Tommy replied."Go take a look in Jason's art gallery if there are three paintings by Nellie Nymphaea. Buy them. She wants them," Jeremy instructed.Tommy nodded and made a mental note of this. "Understood. I'll get to it."Oh, right… Sir, Miss Anya's treatment is about to end. I estimate she's going to come back next month."Jere

Gloomily, Jeremy kicked over a chair to sit and gave Corinne a cold glare.Corinne merely carried on with her meal as though nothing out of the ordinary was happening. As she ate, however, an idea occurred to her. She brought the kebab near Jeremy's lips and, raising her eyebrows, giggled. "Try it."Her sudden attention toward him caught Jeremy off-guard, yet he could not deny he felt slightly intrigued. He opened his mouth slowly—Corinne pulled back her hand and stuffed the kebab into her mouth.She chuckled, her mouth full. "Hey, didn't you say you don't want to eat?"The shade of Jeremy's expression got darker. He narrowed his eyes sharply. "You tricked me?"Corinne pursed her lips and took out one potato fry for him from the plate. "Alright. I'm not going to tease you anymore. Males and females shouldn't drink using the same glass. It's inappropriate for us to eat the same kebab, and it's unhygienic too. I'll give you a new one. Try it. It's very nice."After the last exper

Jeremy narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you close with the owner?"Corinne nodded. "Yes. We always came here for supper in the past.""We?""Yea… My friends and I!" Corinne answered.Suddenly, he remembered the owner saying he was more handsome than the last guy Corinne brought here before. Did that mean Corinne always brought guys over too? Who were they?Jeremy's eyebrows furrowed. "Friends? Your ex?"Corinne nodded honestly. "Nope. I'm ashamed to tell you this, but I've never had a boyfriend before, so I don't have exes. I came here with my classmates and some friends I grew up with."Jeremy's dark eyes sank. "Classmate? The one who gave you his button?""No, not him," Corinne answered without thinking about it, but seconds later, realization dawned on her. "Wait! How did you know someone gave me a button before?"Jeremy snorted with a stone-cold expression. "Unfortunately, I was around to witness it."Corinne thought back and remembered Jeremy and her walking together on

Corinne blushed upon hearing what others around them were saying. It was easy to be misunderstood that they were a couple because they were holding hands.However, they did not walk alongside each other. Instead, Jeremy walked ahead of her while she reluctantly followed.Rather than being seen as a couple, she thought they looked like a father and a disobedient daughter.Still, Corinne felt it was not nice to be misunderstood, especially when there was nothing between them and they were just cooperating to play-pretend. Thus, she tried to withdraw her hand to clear the air.By the time she moved her arm, she noticed they had gotten to the car.Jeremy let go of her hand and opened the door for her. "Get in," rang his voice, deep in his chest.Corinne did not stall and bent to get into the car. Jeremy used his hand to cover the top part of the car, protecting Corinne from knocking her head. It was a very gentlemanly and lofty act.Corinne was startled. 'He's always so cold at time
