Chapter 499

When he was one step away from bumping into Corinne, he moved past her smoothly and naturally as he continued to walk forward.

Corinne’s body and expression froze slightly.

“It’s late, so why aren’t you home yet? Who gave you permission to come here?” he reproached in a deep voice behind Corinne.

Corinne came back to her senses and turned around to look over.

Amongst the crowd of onlookers was Annie, who had an awkward expression on her face. She answered stubbornly, “I was just socializing after work. It’s not like I did anything bad!”

Annie pursed her lips as she answered Jeremy and turned around to look at Corinne. She waved her hands ever so slightly and sneakily greeted her with a smile.

Corinne suddenly realized that Jeremy was there for Annie. ‘And I thought he was here for me. Well, it’s good that Jeremy didn’t come for Anya and showed no reaction when he saw her earlier. It couldn’t have turned out better!’

At that moment, Anya walked past Corinne toward Jeremy and leaned close to him. Anya then turned to Annie and asked in a warm, gentle tone, “When did you arrive, Annie? Why didn’t I see you earlier?”

After Annie left, Anya sighed and said to Jeremy, “Don’t you think you’re too harsh on Annie? Since she’s already here, why couldn’t you have let her enjoy herself a bit before leaving? Even if she’s late, she can always sleep at my place. I could also ask my driver to send her home too.”

“She’s got a bad temper. You won’t be able to control her.”

Anya smiled softly and said, “Oh… How so? I think her personality is pretty good. She’s a bit like my younger brother, Sunny. They’re both stubborn and mischievous at times, but they’re still very sensible!”

Jeremy ignored Anya completely and looked up to stare at Corinne. It was almost as if thousands of invisible threads came out from his pupils and wrapped tightly all around her.

Corinne could feel the pressure, and her heart was starting to become flustered despite maintaining her calm exterior. If she had the chance to leave that place, she would do so without the slightest hesitation.
