Chapter 404

Everyone inside the villa living room was chatting

enthusiastically with each other, but as soon as Corinne

walked in, they all turned to her and stared at her with curious glances.

“Who is she? Why did she come in like this?”

“Is she trying to seduce someone with that wet, see-through look?”

“How the hell is she supposed to do that when she’s wearing denim shorts?”

“Don’t you think she’s super pretty though?”

“Who came with her? Why didn’t I see her around earlier?”

They speculated on her identity while staring at her and evaluating her appearance.

Corinne did not care one bit about their gazes when she came in, and her main purpose there was to

look for Zeke-the villa’s owner-so she could ask him whether or not he could

spare her a set of clean clothes.

However, Zeke had never returned after his supposed

bathroom break’, and he was nowhere to be seen on the first floor of the villa. ‘Isn’t he the birthday

boy? Where did he go?’

As Corinne was looking around, Jason-who was busy chatting with a friend-narrowed his eyes

pensively and placed his wine glass down as he got up and walked toward her. “What happened,

Corinne? Why are you all wet?”

Corinne heard the sound and looked over to see Jason. It had been a while since she last saw him,

and he was still as charming as ever before with his picturesque eyebrows, succulent red lips, and

pearly white teeth. Each of his movements was elegant and delicate, almost as if he had calculated the

exact angle every single time.

“It’s you, Kind Sir! Now’s the time for you to show your kindness! Did you bring any female plus-ones

here today?”

Although Corinne was in a wet and messy state, her expression was still calm and composed as ever,

and her wittiness did not diminish in the slightest.

‘Kind Sir?’

She gave him a similar nickname once before, and she had gotten used to calling him that.

Jason was a little dumbfounded, but he still answered her in earnest, “No, but one of my female

subordinates came with me. She’s waiting for me in my car outside. Do you want me to ask her if she

has any extra clothes?”

Corinne nodded. “Yes, please. I’d like to borrow some clothes and change into them!”

“No problem. Wait here.”

Jason understood what she meant and took out his cell phone to make a call.

“Hey, Angie? Could you bring a fresh set of your clothes over here right now?”

After Jason requested for her to bring the clothes, he ended the call and smiled at Corinne. “You’re in

luck. She happened to

bring along another set of clothes, and she’ll have it delivered to you in no time.”

Corinne then thanked him sincerely. “Thanks, Kind Sir!”

Jason was speechless. Despite finding it amusing, he was not used to the nickname ‘Kind Sir’.

“Hey! Look, you guys! Mister Jason is talking with that drenched woman!”

“What’s going on over there? Is she his girlfriend?”

“He always chooses the daughters of upper-class families as his companions, so why would he

suddenly bring with him a girl that no one knows?”

“The way she dresses is nothing to shout about, but her beauty is simply out of this world!”

“What’s the use of being beautiful? Reputation and status are far more important than looks when it

comes to being Mister Jason’s girlfriend!”

“That’s right! How did she even become his girlfriend? The clothes she wears look so cheap that they

probably don’t even have a brand label.”

“Yeah, we dress way better than her, so why does she deserve to talk to Mister Jason?”

Zeke only invited his close friends as well as a few others who have a good relationship with him for his

simple birthday celebration. Some of his guy friends brought along their female companions just to

liven things up a bit more.
