Annie’s cute expression made Corinne hesitate. She could not bear to refuse, so she nodded and said,

“Sure.”

Annie was elated. “I knew you’d bring me along! Hehe!”

Jeremy was not pleased with the sudden addition of a third wheel. He frowned and looked at Corinne.

“Weren’t you just going to treat me to dinner?”

Corinne shrugged her shoulders and said, “It’s just one extra person! Don’t be so stingy!”

Annie leaned forward and got in between them. “Yeah! I’m your niece! Why are you so stingy about

letting me join you for dinner?”

Jeremy glanced sternly at Annie. “Sit back down if you want to tag along.”

His scolding prompted her to sit back down obediently on the back seat.

Jeremy then pressed the accelerator and drove off.

At a private kitchen, Corinne ordered a few of their signature dishes and handed the menu to Annie so

she could order.

Annie took the menu happily and did not hesitate to order her favorite food and drink.

Once she was done, Corinne took the menu back and handed it to Jeremy. “Is there anything you want

to add?”

Jeremy lowered his eyes, glanced at the menu, and sneered instead of taking it from her. “Do I have to

order something?”

Corinne could hear that he was angry, so she smiled and said drily, “Of course! You’re the one who’s

being treated to dinner!”

“Oh, I’m surprised you’re aware that I’m the one being treated. For a second, I thought I was your driver

today!” Jeremy pretended to be angry, but he eventually took the menu from her. He ordered a few

dishes that were lighter on the palate along with some soup.

The two girls ordered some greasy and spicy food, which Corinne should be eating in moderation

because she was pregnant.

Although he was not too happy, he was more concerned for her health.

His unhappiness stemmed from how engrossed Corinne was in talking with Annie when they were on

the way to the restaurant. He, on the other hand, was unable to join in on their conversation at all.

Corinne walked into the restaurant while holding hands with Annie the moment they got out, and they

chatted away so happily that Corinne never bothered to check on him.

Once they sat at the table, Corinne asked Annie to order first, and she only gave him the menu. last. It

was as if the person Corinne wanted to treat was not Annie instead of him!

When Corinne heard what sort of dishes Jeremy ordered, she knew that he ordered them for her. At

the same time, she did not ignore the displeasure on Jeremy’s face.

Her lips twitched, and she was surprised that Jeremy would be jealous of his own niece.

Corinne did not mind Annie’s presence at all as she reached out to hold Jeremy’s handsome face. She

rubbed his cheeks mischievously and said, “You’re thinking too much! Why would I think of you as my

driver? No driver is as handsome as you!”

A smile appeared on Jeremy’s cold yet handsome face, and he patted Corinne’s head lightly.” Who did

you learn all that sweet-talking from?”

Annie rested her chin on her palm and looked enviously at their affectionate behavior. She was

reminded of her status as a single woman and lamented, “Sigh! I wonder when I’ll be able to get into

such a sweet relationship.”
