Chapter 377

Jeremy turned to look at Tommy and signaled with his eyes to drive the car over. He then looked back

at the cheeky Corinne, patted her head, and cooed, “Yes, I know you’re the most thoughtful girl in the

world.”

This immediately elicited a pout from Corinne. ‘I know he’s giving in to me, but why does his

compliment sound a tad bit insincere?‘ she thought.

Jeremy first made sure Corinne got into the car safely before putting away the umbrella and following

inside. Then, Tommy slowly drove the car away from the shopping mall.

Corinne took out her phone to check the time and to reply to a few messages. She then thought of

something, so she looked sideways at Jeremy and asked, “By the way, Mister, how did you know I was

in that mall today?”

Jeremy did not answer her question and instead grabbed one. of the documents lying on the seat and

started reading it.

Corinne narrowed her eyes. It was rare to see Jeremy, who was usually one step ahead of everyone,

acting so guiltily, so she deliberately scooted closer to him and said, “Tell me, Mister, did you use a

tracking device to track my location again?”

Jeremy looked up and was met with Corinne’s inquisitive gaze. Knowing she would not stop asking him

until he gave her an answer, he answered, “Yes, but only because it started to rain.”

Corinne frowned unhappily. “The fact that it was raining

doesn’t mean you can track my location without my consent.”

Jeremy knew Corinne did not like being tracked. He continued to speed–read the document in his

hand. He then turned a page and said, “I’ll try not to do that again.”

Corinne raised her eyebrow and repeated, “Try not to?”

“Sometimes, it’s necessary for me to do that. After all, I’m only doing it to make sure you’re safe,”

Jeremy answered solemnly.

Corinne scoffed. “Oh, drop the act, Mister. You’re only doing it because you desire to control me.”

Jeremy put down the document in his hand and decided to ‘ drop the act‘. He pulled the stubborn

Corinne to his lap and roughly grabbed her chin. “You’re right, I do have a very strong desire to control

you, and that’s not the only strong desire I have in me. Do you want to find out the rest?”

His words and touch made her blush. “Mister, don’t…you even think about it!”

Jeremy tilted her chin up and pulled her face closer. “I’ve been holding it in for far too long, you little

rascal…”

Tommy–who was driving–silently raised the partition between the front and back seats of the car to give

them some privacy.

Corinne knew she was not strong enough to push off Jeremy, so when his lips were just about to meet

hers, she suddenly asked, “What did Anya lose to save you?”

Jeremy stopped doing what he was doing, and his eyes darkened; it seemed he did not want to be

talking about this.

Corinne stared at him for a while before breaking out in a

giggle. “Let me guess, she lost her virginity to save you?”

“You and your nonsense,” said Jeremy with a frown.

“Then answer my question,” said Corinne, not caring one bit that Jeremy seemed uncomfortable talking

about it.

“Let’s not talk about the past,” said Jeremy as a multitude of emotions flashed across his face.

“I was just playing with you. It’s fine if you don’t want to talk about it. Besides, I have some secrets of

my own that I’d never want you to find out.” Corinne shrugged and took this

opportunity to return to her seat.

Jeremy was speechless. ‘What secret does she have that she doesn’t want me to find out?‘ he

wondered. He felt conflicted by this, so he pinched his glabella in resignation. Not only did he let her

distract him, but she also successfully made him wonder about what secrets she could have
