Chapter 746

Corinne got up and ran out, worried that Jeremy might get in the car and leave if she was too

late.

Annie looked out of the glass window and chased after her too.

“Mister!”

Jeremy was about to lean over to get into the car when he heard a familiar voice. He then stopped and

turned, only to see Corinne trotting toward him quickly and jumping slightly to hug him as soon as she

came up to him.

Jeremy positioned his body to support her and grasped her firmly. “Why are you here at this hour?”

Corinne wrapped her hands affectionately around his neck. “Waiting for you at home bored the hell out

of me, so I decided to come fetch you once you get off work!”

Jeremy’s stern black eyes were filled with warmth. “Fetch me from work? That virtuous, huh?” Corinne

rested her head on the man’s shoulder and snorted, “Aren’t you happy?”

Jeremy smiled. “Yes, I am. It’s not often that my woman will fetch me on her own accord, but you can’t

just leave home like this in your condition. Just wait for me at home next time. I’ll go home straight after

work.”

Corinne tightened her hug on his neck and refused. “What’s wrong with my current

condition? I’m pregnant, not sick! And besides, I’m not that fragile. The doctor said it’s good. for the

baby if the mother doesn’t laze around. That way, our child will be healthy and strong!” The man

frowned. He was not worried about her exerting herself with her daily movement, but his main fear was

that something might happen to her outside. After all, a lot of people were targeting the Holdens, and

he was worried that she might be in danger if those people targeted her.

Jeremy could not do anything about it, so he held her and placed his palms on her head. He did not

want to be too stern with her for the moment and felt that it would be better for her to talk about it once

they return home.

The security guards who escorted Jeremy out were shocked. They had been in the company for many

years, but they had never seen such a gentle expression on his face before. It was truly an eye-

opening moment for them.

Tommy was still waiting on orders, so Jeremy glanced up and said to him, “Leave the car with me. You

and the driver can clock off now.”

“Yes, sir.” Tommy looked at the reconciled couple and felt a wave of emotion in his heart. After nodding

in acknowledgment of Jeremy’s order, he opened the front passenger seat and informed the driver that

they could leave.

Jeremy walked over with Corinne in his arms and placed her safely in the front passenger seat. He

fastened her seat belt and asked, “Didn’t you say you were going to treat me to something delicious?

What are we eating today?”

Corinne cocked her eyebrow. “I thought I sent you the address? Just go straight there!”

Jeremy closed the car door for her, walked over to the driver’s side, and got in. He started the engine

and was about to press his foot on the accelerator when someone got in the rear seat. Annie folded her

arms, frowned, and said with a reprimanding look, “You’re so mean, Uncle Jeremy! Why didn’t you tell

me that you and Corinne got back together?”

Jeremy looked up at the rearview mirror to look at Annie, who had gotten into the car without his

permission. “Are you my elder? Why do I have to report everything to you?”

Annie scoffed immediately. “Well, you have to! I was so worried that you’d get depressed and do

something stupid because Corinne wasn’t around. I wouldn’t have been so worried if I knew earlier that

the two of you reconciled and got together!”

‘Get depressed and do something stupid?’ Jeremy’s expression soured. “Well, now you know. If there’s

nothing else, please get out of the car and go home!”

Annie did not intend to leave at all. “I heard that you were going to have dinner with Corinne, and I

happen to be famished too. I’m coming along!”

Jeremy said impatiently, “If you’re hungry, you can get out of the car and eat dinner at home!” Annie

pouted unhappily and ignored him. She turned to Corinne and pleaded, “Corinne! Uncle Jeremy isn’t

letting me tag along! But you’ll let me come with you two, right?”

Corinne kept quiet. She actually felt a headache coming on because Annie was probably still thinking

about asking her to help chase Aaron.
