Corinne rolled her eyes at Jeremy. “I just find it funny. You did the same thing to me before, so it’s my turn to tease you!”

Jeremy still could not remember how he treated her before, so he could not really refute her claims.

At that moment, Corinne’s phone rang, to which she immediately answered.

It was quiet on the balcony, so without the speakerphone on, Jeremy could hear the voice coming from the other end of her phone. It was a man.

“Hey Corinne, where are you?”

Corinne glanced at Jeremy thoughtfully before replying, “I’m at a friend’s place.

What’s up?”

“Didn’t you say you wanted to check out my piece of land at Serenity Bay last time? Come on, I’ll take you there now,” said Jason with a smile.

Corinne glanced at her watch. “Okay, where should we meet?”

“Where are you? I’ll pick you up!”

“No, I’ll go pick you up instead.”

“Okay then, I’ll send you the location.”

“Okay.”

After hanging up, Corinne put her phone back into her pocket, looking like she was ready to leave.

Jeremy looked at her faintly. “Going on a date?”

Corinne stood up. “Something came up, so I’ll be going now. Be careful when you’re taking your bath. Also, take care of Bryan for me!”

After saying that, she flipped over the balcony railing coolly.

Jeremy felt a heavy feeling in his chest and indescribable irritation as he stared at where she disappeared off.

The caller was surely a man, and from his tone, it did not sound like they were just work partners. The two seemed to know each other very well.

Corinne was nowhere to be seen by the time Bryan came back from putting the bathwater. He looked around for his mother and asked, “Daddy, where’s Mommy?”

“She left,” said Jeremy in a low voice.

“What? Why did she leave without telling me?” asked Bryan a little disappointedly.

Jeremy laughed coldly. “Because she’s in a hurry to meet a man.”

Bryan tilted his head. He could sense something was off with Jeremy.” Daddy, are you…jealous?”

■Jealous? So this is what it feels like to be jealous…’ thought Jeremy.

Corinne rushed to a bar to pick up Jason. He got into the passenger seat with a seductive smile on his handsome face.

“Thanks for picking me up, Corinne!” said Jason while he fastened his seat belt.

Corinne shook her head, signaling it was nothing, before looking at the bar’s signage.

“You sure how to enjoy life, Mister Jason-coming to a place like this to drink in broad daylight.”

Jason did not pretend otherwise. “Yeah, a group of my friends asked me to join them for a few drinks. But I only took a few sips before I called you, so I have an excuse to slip out.”

Corinne was actually not very interested in him, so she just asked, “Shall we head to Serenity Bay, then?”

Jason nodded. “Sure.”
