Chapter 407
That hand was not Jason’s.
Angie was shocked. She looked up and saw Jeremy’s cold face
looking down at her. His sudden oppressive appearance caused her to instinctively back away.
“M-Mister Jeremy!”
Jeremy calmly opened the shopping bag and looked at the clothes inside. They were indeed new since the tags were still
on them.
‘I guess they’ll work in a pinch.”
Jason looked at Jeremy and smiled. “Jeremy, you’re finally here.”
Jeremy nodded at him and said unsmilingly, “Yeah. Where’s my wife?”
“She’s inside and completely drenched. I was worried that she might get sick so I brought her to the guest room to dry off.”
“In any case, thank you.”
Jeremy narrowed his eyes and continued, “However, you shouldn’t simply bring another man’s wife into a room next time. Your kindness is more trouble than it’s worth.”
Jason’s smile froze on his face but then he gave a quick chuckle. “Jeremy, I was left with no choice but to do that. She looked like a pitiful wet puppy walking around like that. Besides, I wouldn’t have needed to do that if you didn’t choose to attend to your savior instead of your wife. Don’t you think
so?”
Jeremy’s eyes darkened and after two seconds of silence, he finally spoke, “Our relationship isn’t something you should comment about. Not when you don’t have any idea what’s really going on behind the scenes.”

Angie examined the watch curiously. “Mister Jason, your lady friend who fell into the pond… Is she Mister Jeremy’s wife?”
“Yeah.”
“I heard he married a very ordinary woman, but that’s what I don’t understand. How did an ordinary woman catch his attention so much that he’s willing to give me this expensive watch so that she would have something to change into?”
“Oh, she’s not ordinary at all,” replied Jason with a meaningful smile.
Angie was stunned. She looked at Jason with a puzzled expression on her face.
‘Mister Jason doesn’t seem like his usual self today. His eyes… They seem to be shining with excitement instead of indifference
