Chapter 408

Jeremy entered the guest room and saw Corinne standing next. to the bed with her back against the

door and drying herself off with the towel.

Her unbuttoned shirt was half-hanging off her shoulders and from the back, he could see her beautiful

collarbone, slender neck, and fair back. He had never seen those parts of her body before, not even at

home.

‘I can’t believe she didn’t lock the door before undressing. What if it was not me but another man who

came? Does she want the whole world to see her half-naked body?’

Thinking of that made his eyebrows draw together, his face darkened, and his jaw tightened.

When Corinne heard someone come in, she did not turn

around but instead said, “Thank you, Angie. You can just leave the clothes on the shelf over there.”

‘What? She didn’t even turn her head around. What a heartless woman,’ thought Jeremy.

The frown on his face became deeper. He narrowed his eyes. ‘ Looks like I need to teach her a lesson.’

Click!

Jeremy locked the door.

“Who are you thanking?” he asked in a deep voice.

Corinne paused what she was doing and turned around. Her face immediately revealed an expression

of shock when she

saw Jeremy but it lasted only for a second before her face returned to normal.

“Mister, what are you doing here?”

“You sound disappointed to find me here.”

Jeremy marched steadily to where she was. Corinne

immediately buttoned up her wet clothes when she saw him walking over to her.

“No, I’m not. I just thought you were Jason’s secretary instead.

The fact that she quickly covered herself up made Jeremy

angry.

‘I can’t believe she’s okay with being half-naked with the door unlocked when I’m not here but as soon

as I’m here, she covers herself up. What the hell is this woman thinking? That everyone else in the

world can see her half-naked but not me?’ thought Jeremy.

He threw the shopping bag on the bed and glared angrily at her. “Stop drying yourself off! You should

take a hot shower first. After that, dry your hair with a hairdryer and change into these clothes.”

Corinne was unhappy with the way he glared at her. It was not like she had done anything wrong, but

she did not want to argue with him while she was still wet so she turned around and went into the

bathroom to take a hot shower.

‘Why’s he lecturing me like that when I’m the victim here? Does he have no empathy at all?’ she

wondered.

After ten minutes or so, Corinne wrapped herself up in a towel

and peeked her head out of the bathroom door. “Mister, where are my clothes?”

At that moment, Jeremy was smoking on the sofa. He

narrowed his eyes, blew out some smoke rings, and gestured with his chin toward the clothes on the

bed.

“They’re over there. Are you going to come out and take them. yourselves or should I bring them in for

you?” he asked unhappily.

Corinne did not answer his question but instead rolled her eyes at him.

After that, still wrapped in her towel, she shuffled toward the bed, picked up the shopping bag, and then

quickly shuffled back to the bathroom. She made sure to lock the bathroom

door and only came out after she had dressed.

Angie’s figure was more on the voluptuous side so her fashion style was more mature and sexy. The

dress she had given Corinne was a wine – red silky V-neck spaghetti -strap dress. The dress was

designed to accentuate every curve on the female body but it was one size too big for Corinne.

She draped the towel over her head and dried her hair with it as she walked out of the bathroom.

“Mister, where did you get these clothes?”

Jeremy looked up at her and was immediately stunned. Seeing Corinne in the wine-red dress made his

blood boil with lust. She was soul-stopping beautiful and it was so rare for her to wear something so

sexy like that.
