Jeremy walked in slowly and tossed the phone back to Sunny.

The man’s eyes were fixated on Corinne. He walked up to her, and as if caring for his child, he raised his hand to tuck her hair behind her ear. “Even if we have different views, we can seek the common ground while reserving differences.”

Corinne was startled.

‘Seeking common ground while reserving differences‘?

It sounded rather daunting to hear such words from the mouth of this cold–blooded, indifferent

man.

After regaining her senses, Corinne’s lips unconsciously twitched. Did he hear what she said. earlier? Was he angry?

Rosie, too, was shocked to have heard how Jeremy described his relationship with Corinne. It was hard for her to accept it, but she did not dare to show it.

She could only explain with a sheepish smile, “Jeremy, I was just joking with Corinne!”

Jeremy slightly turned his slender body and stood beside Corinne in a serious manner, looking at Rosie darkly. “Inappropriate jokes aren’t funny.”

Rosie’s smile stiffened. “Uh… Jeremy, I’m sorry. I just thought that a girl who grew up in the countryside like Corinne has an easygoing, kind, and casual personality, and that’s why I was kidding with her. Corinne, are you angry?”

Corinne raised her eyebrows. Rosie, in pretending to flatter her, was actually criticizing her, and it was all about this. If she expressed anger, it would seem as though she was unsophisticated and unreasonable.

Thinking of this, her lips quirked upward as she was about to respond when the man suddenly raised his arms and placed them on her shoulders, gently squeezing her shoulders with his big hands as if signaling her not to speak.

Jeremy looked at Rosie expressionlessly and said, “That’s right. My wife grew up in the countryside. Honesty, kindness, and informality are her virtues, but this can’t be a reason for others to bully her for being honest.”

Corinne blinked at this and turned her head to look at this man.

Panicked, Rosie hastily explained, “N–No, wait, you misunderstood me, Jeremy! How could I possibly bully her? She cured my foot, and I’m nothing but thankful to her!

“You should’ve seen her, Jeremy. Corinne is so skilled that she cured my foot with her knowledge of chiropractic, and I got a little emotional. A girl like Corinne who grew up in the countryside has a lot of skills. She’s not as squeamish as me, who doesn’t know anything. Of course, I suggested that she get rid of those rural values and get closer to the values of our circle out of good intentions so that she and you will have fewer conflicts in the future!”

“Don’t trouble yourself,” Jeremy said these four words coldly without a trace of affection.

Then, the man looked at the petite girl beside him and slightly raised the corners of his lips. “My wife doesn’t need to make any changes; it is I who should accept her influence on me and change. my luxurious lifestyle. Isn’t that right, my beloved Missus Holden?”

Corinne looked at Jeremy blankly.

Why was this guy talking to her in such a reproachful tone? She felt a little uncomfortable about it.

The smile on Rosie’s face completely froze, and it felt as though her eyes were full of thousands of sharp thorns. Whatever it was, she wanted to redirect it all to that lowlife Corinne!

Jeremy gently caressed Corinne’s round cheeks with his long fingers, and his tone softened slightly. “Didn’t I tell Tommy to take you home? Why are you still here to meddle in other people’s business?”

Corinne came back to her senses in a daze and slightly lowered her gaze. “Oh. I’ll get going now.”

With that said, she turned around and removed herself from the man’s arms. “Mister Tommy, we

can go.”

Tommy came back to his senses at this moment, and he subconsciously glanced at the young master’s face before he then responded to Corinne, “… Yes, ma’am.”

Jeremy, who was treated indifferently by the little rascal, frowned slightly, narrowed his long eyes slightly, and his face gradually soured.

Suddenly, Corinne stopped, and the man’s eyes lit up slightly.
