A few seconds later, Jeremy replied, [My grandparents don’t eat supper. You don’t have to come out if you don’t
want to see me. At least have the servants take it in.]
Corinne frowned. She knew Jeremy would not leave until the supper was delivered. ‘Hmph! Why should I care if he
stands outside the whole night? Serves him right for always ordering me around and forcing me to do things I don’t
want to.’
…
Outside the Riveras’ mansion.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJeremy got out of his car. He then shoved his hands into his pants pockets and looked at the mansion for somebody
to come out to take the supper.
Tommy had gotten out of the car as well and stood next to Jeremy with the takeout in his hands.
No one came out of the mansion, but they saw a car driving toward them from the other end of the road. The car’s
headlights were so bright that Jeremy and Tommy had to look away.
The car stopped outside the mansion, and Jason turned off the headlights before getting out of the car.
Jason walked toward Jeremy and asked, “Jeremy, I heard from Lucas that you’re back. How was everything? Are
you okay?”
Jeremy nodded. “Yeah, I’m okay.”
Jason smiled. “I’m glad you’re okay. Though, what are you doing here at this late hour?”
Jeremy’s expression remained unchanged. “I’m waiting for someone.”
Jason frowned. “Are you waiting for Corinne?”
Jeremy did not answer him.
Jason took Jeremy’s silence as an affirmative. He then glanced at the mansion and advised, “Jeremy, Corinne
obviously doesn’t want to see you. I think it’s best to let her be.”
He then saw the takeout Tommy was carrying, and realization dawned on him. “Is that for Corinne? How about I
bring it in for you?”
“Don’t bother. Just go in if you want,” said Jeremy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJason shrugged. “Okay. I’ll tell Corinne to at least send somebody to get the takeout once I see her.”
Jeremy narrowed his eyes and said nothing.
Jason was just about to go into the mansion compound when he heard a noise coming from that direction.
“Miss Corinne, it’s cold outside! Mister Lucas asked you to put on this coat.”
Jason stopped walking and turned to look at Corinne with a coat hanging on her shoulders, walking out of the door.
Jason frowned with disappointment.
Corinne walked out slowly on account of her pregnant belly. She stopped in front of Jeremy and extended her hand.
“Where’s my supper? Give it to me!”
