Bowen understood Jeremy’s wishes and turned around to inform the servants. After all those people cleared out, Corinne felt as if the air was fresh again as she pushed the man’s chest.

“You can let me go now, can you?” Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ Find_Nøvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Jeremy gazed down at her, but he tightened his grip on her instead of loosening it. “You want me to let go of a ruthless little girl like you so you can bring all your belongings with you and leave me behind?”

Corinne frowned and looked at him. “Didn’t you notice that my luggage bag is light? It’s empty. I didn’t pack anything inside at all! I was just pretending!”

Jeremy noticed that there was something off about the weight of the suitcase, but he was still a little displeased and had a stern look in his eyes. “Why didn’t you call me when they came over to harass you?”

Corinne answered indifferently, “Weren’t you at work? I didn’t want to disturb you, and besides, it’s not worth going through the trouble of abandoning your responsibilities at work just to deal with those useless pieces of trash. I could chase them away if I wanted to, but it’ll only be a stopgap measure. They’re going to come back anyway because they’d feel that my words carry no weight.

“I know them too well. If you don’t come forth and say something, they won’t believe a word I say, and they’re not going to give up either! So, I decided to act as if I’d resigned

myself to my fate and pretended to pack my luggage to keep them around here. Once you come home, you can take over and help me deal with them!”

The man stared at her earnestly and said in an admonishing tone, “I see. Am I supposed to thank you for how

understanding you are of my job?”

Corinne grinned and exclaimed, “No thanks necessary! You’re more than welcome. I’m well aware of your priorities.”

The man patted her angrily on the head and said, “What do you mean you’re aware of my priorities? Do you even know what my priorities are? From now on, I want you to remember that anything involving you is my top priority. You must call me as soon as possible if something happens!”

Corinne was startled for a moment and her thoughts went blank. She then nodded obediently and said, “Okay. I promise to do as you say next time.”

Bowen came back after instructing the servants to ‘teach’ the Carews a lesson, and he was very much pleased to see Jeremy embracing Corinne that he could not help but smile at them like a proud parent.

Corinne was a simple and easygoing woman who never put on airs. The servants at home all looked at her in a different light and never gave her treatment that was befitting of her status, yet she never once felt offended by them. By the time they all became familiar with her and understood her, their attitude toward her changed and they grew incredibly fond of her.

Bowen imagined an alternate universe where that delusionally

confident Sherlyn married Jeremy and realized how much suffering he and the other servants would be subject to. With that thought, Bowen cherished Corinne’s existence even more.

“The food’s almost ready, sir. Do you or the missus have any other requests for dinner?”

Jeremy raised his eyes, glanced at both the living room and the dining room where the Carews had been earlier, and

immediately frowned with disgust.

“No. I’ll bring her out for dinner. Have someone disinfect the entire house.”

“Yes, sir.”

Bowen understood that the house had been imbued with the Carews’ stench, thus affecting Jeremy’s mood considerably. He would have ordered the servants to clean the house even if Jeremy never instructed him to do it.

Jeremy gazed at Corinne in his embrace and said, “Wait here while I go upstairs and get dressed. I’ll bring you out to relax.”

Corinne blinked curiously. “Oh? Where are we going?”

The man patted her head with his big hands and said, “You’ll know when you’re there.”

Corinne pouted. ‘Why are you being all mysterious?’
