Jeremy bit Corinne’s ear roughly.
“Stop moving! Who says you’re going to get a headache by sleeping too much? Just lie here. I’ll make you so
comfortable that you’d think you’re in heaven!”
It was obvious what Jeremy meant, and Corinne could not help but blush. Nonetheless, she shoved him away
angrily. “Hmph! It doesn’t sound like you’re as tired as you’re making yourself out to be since you still have the
energy to say all this nonsense!”
She quickly slipped out of the bed and put some distance between them to prevent Jeremy from pulling her back.
However, she realized something was not quite right the next second. Not only did Jeremy not pull her back, but he

Instead, he lied down on his side, propped up his face with one hand, and stared at her with a taunting smirk.
Corinne frowned, not understanding why he was looking at her like that until she felt the coldness creeping up on
her skin. It was only then she remembered she was naked!
She looked down at herself, blushing madly. ‘Oh my god! How can I forget I’m naked? No wonder he’s looking at me
like that! Where… Where are my clothes?! Gah! This is so embarrassing!’
For the first time ever, Corinne felt at a loss for what to do. Her hands went up and down her body, trying to cover
herself as she looked around for her pajamas, but she failed to locate them.
Thus, she quickly ran over to her luggage and grabbed the first thing she touched before rushing into the
bathroom. After she put on her baby pink dress, she looked at her blushing sorry sight in the mirror.
For some reason, she found herself always fumbling and quick to blush whenever Jeremy was around. ‘This isn’t me
at all!’ she told herself with a sigh. To not think about it further, she picked up her toothbrush and started brushing
her teeth.
Suddenly, the bathroom door swung open. Before she could react, Jeremy walked in smirked at her through the
reflection of the mirror.
Corinne was still embarrassed about being naked moments ago, so she frowned with wariness the moment Jeremy
touched her.
“What are you doing?” she mumbled indistinctly as her mouth was filled with foam.
“Nothing. Can’t I just look at you?” he said with a smile.
Corinne’s lips twitched. “What’s there to look at? I’m just brushing my teeth.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJeremy looked at her adoringly. “Everything you do captivates me. I just can’t get enough of you.”
As corny as it was, Corinne could not help but blush again.
“Fine, you can watch. But nothing more than that, okay? If not, I’ll get angry!”
“Okay. I promise you I’ll just watch.”
‘Why do I feel like he has become more clingy after his business trip?’ wondered Corinne. ‘The poor thing does look
exhausted… But he hasn’t told me who the woman on the phone is yet, so I shouldn’t go easy on him!’
It was not like she could not ask him first, but she was holding out hope that Jeremy would tell her everything
without her asking.
‘I’ll believe anything he says as long as he tells me everything without me prompting him,’ she told herself.
