Chapter 517

Corinne did not want Jeremy to know where she lived so she said politely, “You don’t have to go

through all that trouble to send me home. It’s enough for you to simply drop me off at the exit, and I’ll

take a taxi from there.”

Seeing that she was not going to give him her address, Jeremy simply said, “Drive us back to

the mansion.”

“Yes, Mister Jeremy.”

“What? He’s taking me back to the mansion? What’s the meaning of this? Is he out of his mind? I don’t

want to go back to the mansion with him.’

Corinne gritted her teeth. She had no choice but to tell him the name of the apartment she was staying

in.

“Baelon Garden. That’s the apartment I live in.”

Jeremy gestured with his chin indifferently, signaling Tommy to tell the driver to change

course to Baelon Garden.

Tommy overheard the conversation between Jeremy and Corinne, and he felt sorry for Jeremy. ‘Mister

Jeremy has been looking all over the place for Miss Corinne only to learn that she has a new husband.

Poor him… How can he ever accept that?”

Soon, they arrived at Baelon Garden.

“Thank you for dropping me home. Please get home safely.”

After saying that, Corinne immediately got out of the car and ran into her apartment building.

Seeing that, Tommy was at a little loss for words. After a while, he turned around to ask Jeremy where

to next but realized he had also got down from the car and was following Corinne into her apartment

building.

‘He must be going in to check out Miss Corinne’s new husband…’

Corinne got into the elevator and pressed the button for the floor she was staying at. The elevator door

was about to close when a large hand suddenly stopped it, causing the elevator door to open once

more.

Then, Jeremy strode in calmly.

Corinne was stunned to see him entering. She frowned unhappily and asked, “Why are you following

me?”

“I’m thirsty and was hoping to get something to drink at your place. Surely you won’t mind

that, right?”

Corinne was speechless. ‘What makes him think I won’t mind?! In fact, I mind it very much! Just what

the hell is going through that man’s brain?’

The elevator was already going up by then, but Corinne still had not given up.

“Mister Jeremy, it’s late, so it won’t be appropriate for me to invite you back to my place. Think of what

the neighbors would say if they saw me, a single woman, and you, a single man, going in together,

sowhy don’t you…”

Jeremy tilted his head and looked down at her with his sharp and penetrating eyes. “Why do you sound

so worried? Isn’t your husband at home?”

Corinne was once again quite speechless. She realized she had no choice but to let Jeremy into her

place because she knew that no matter what excuse she came up with, or how she turned him down,

he would not take a no for an answer. That was how overbearing he could be.

“Please sit wherever you like, Mister Jeremy. I’ll make something for you to drink right away, “Corinne

said sulkily after they had gone in and changed into her indoor slippers.

Jeremy watched Corinne go into the kitchen before turning around to go into the living room. Instead of

sitting down, he looked around and examined every corner of the apartment.

“This floor offers an excellent night view from the balcony and the layout is quite good as well. She

couldn’t possibly afford to buy an apartment with this quality… Not when she has just graduated. Does

this mean she really has a new husband? Did they buy this house after they got married?’

However, he also noticed that there did not seem to be any trace of a man in that apartment.

There were no photos of them together including wedding photos. There were no men’s shoes in the

foyer. There was nothing a man would use in the living room. Plus, the decorations were mostly geared

toward single women. They did not seem like something a couple of newlyweds

would have chosen.

Jeremy was going over the questions in his mind when he suddenly heard a noise coming from the

direction of the bedroom. ‘Could that be the husband?’

He frowned and snapped his head around.
