Chapter 437
‘What’s she trying to pull? Is this her way of cutting ties with me? Well, dream on, Corinne Carew!!
Jeremy finally opened his mouth and said fiercely, “Continue to look for her! Go to the ends of the earth to find her if you have to! You don’t stop looking until you find her!”
Tommy tried to ignore the chill running up his spine as he said, “Yes, sir!”
A month later.
The city of Thalassa was one of the stops in Michel’s the renowned painter Art Exhibition.

World Tour
The lady greeter at the entrance of the gallery was dressed in her elegant work clothes with a light orange silk scarf around her neck. Her makeup was exquisitely done which complemented the professional smile she had on her face as she welcomed the guests into the exhibition.
The gallery was one of the most high-end galleries in the whole of Thalassa. The guests were all dressed in expensive and classy tailored suits or couture gowns. However, the smile on the lady greeter’s face was immediately replaced by a frown when she saw a twenty-year-old girl dressed in casual clothing appear at the entrance.
“Excuse me, miss but I’m afraid I can’t let you in,” said the lady greeter.
Corinne stopped walking and raised her eyebrow at her. “And why is that?”
“Because this exhibition is for guests only and you don’t look like it so I can’t let you in. Please leave the premises right away,” said the lady greeter rudely.
Corinne frowned and said, “If I read correctly, the sign in front of the building said the exhibition is free to the public.”
Besides, the guests will question the reputation of the gallery if I let someone like you in. They might even think all the famous paintings we have are counterfeits. So I would greatly appreciate it if you stop making my life difficult and leave here immediately!”
Corinne narrowed her eyes. “Whoever said that one has to be in formal dress to be allowed into an exhibition? There’s no such rule!”
The lady greeter finally lost her composure. “Our gallery says so! Now are you going to leave or do I need to ask security to escort you out?”
Corinne nodded indifferently. “Go ahead! Call security! In fact, why not call the manager too!”
The lady greeter rolled her eyes at Corinne. “Huh! Our manager is waiting for our VIP guests to come so he doesn’t have the time for someone like you!”
At that moment, who should appear at the entrance but the manager himself?
