Corinne regretted choosing that route. Annoyance surged up her heart. She did not want Jeremy to see her like that.

If they were in a place with many people, she could have pretended not to see him and left without even sparing him a glance.

However, there were only two of them on the empty path, so there was no way she could have pretended

not to see him.

‘Talk about rotten luck,’ she thought while sighing.

The distance between them became shorter and shorter…

Closer and closer.

Jeremy’s hands were in his pockets. He strode steadily toward her without any expression on his face. He locked his gaze on her and looked her up and down with narrowed eyes.

Corinne had to acknowledge him since they were face-to-face with each other. She simply looked casually at him and politely nodded before brushing past him. Suddenly, she quickened her steps.

“Stop right there,” said Jeremy in his deep voice. His tone had no emotions, yet it carried an overbearing

oppressiveness.

Corinne stopped walking, but she did not turn around to look at him. “Can I help you, Mister Jeremy?”

“Turn around.”

Corinne was unhappy with how he ordered her around, so she did not do as he said. “Sorry, Mister Jeremy, but I’m heading to that door over there, so there’s no need for me to turn around.”

Jeremy frowned and remained silent. Instead, he walked over and positioned himself in front of her. He was so much taller and wider than her that Corinne’s view was completely blocked.

All she could see was his broad chest.

She did not want to meet his gaze, so she did not look up at him. “Just say whatever you want to say to me, Mister Jeremy.”

Jeremy’s face darkened. He looked down condescendingly at her, and his face darkened even more when he realized she was not looking up at him.

After silently looking over her drenched hair and coffee-stained clothes for a few seconds, he coldly asked, “What happened?”

“I accidentally splashed coffee all over myself. I’m actually on my way home to change,” Corinne lied.

Jeremy’s eyes narrowed into a sharp line. “Just how did you manage to get coffee on your hair too?”

It was obvious nothing could get past Jeremy.

Corinne laughed self-deprecatingly. “You know how clumsy I can be. Thanks for your concern, but I’ve got to run now. Ciao.” S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

She tried walking around him to get away as fast as possible, but Jeremy stepped to the side to block her from leaving.

“Corinne, I’m going to ask you one last time. What happened?” asked Jeremy threateningly and impatiently.

Corinne was starting to get impatient as well. She did not understand why Jeremy insisted on getting to the bottom of the matter. ‘It won’t be easy to fool him. I guess I have no choice but to tell him the truth.” Ultimately, she looked up at him glaringly and said, “I made Miss Anya sad, so Lucas decided to fire me.”

Jeremy’s eyes darkened. “He was the one who did this to you too?”

Corinne nodded. “Yes.”

‘The only reason he’s forcing me to tell him the truth is because he wants to see me humiliated. Why, he must think I’m nothing but a laughingstock. Oh well, sticks and stones.”

“Mister Jeremy, can I go now that I’ve told you what happened?”

‘Seeing as Mister Lucas poured coffee on me to help Miss Anya take revenge… Even though Mister Jeremy’s really protective of her, he should just let me go, right?’

“Yes, you can,” uttered Jeremy coldly.
