“Shut up! I’m driving, so now’s not the time to say anything that’ll anger me. Just wait quietly and I’ll explain
everything to you later. Be a good girl and listen to me, okay?” said Jeremy in a stern but coaxing tone while
keeping his eyes focused on the road ahead.
Corinne frowned and obediently sank back into her seat. A multitude of feelings was roiling inside her as she silently
stared out of the window at the passing scenery.

In the middle section of the Cross River Bridge, a black commercial sedan with double flashing lights was parked on
the side of the road.
Jeremy drove past the car and pulled over. Corinne had no intention to get out of the car, but he still reached over
to help her unbuckle her seat belt.
“What are you waiting for? Get out of the car now!”
She had no choice but to follow him out of the car.
Anya greeted them as soon as the two of them got out of the car. She coughed weakly twice before saying,

Jeremy nodded at her. He then turned his attention to Lucas, who was standing by the car, and asked him, “What’s
wrong with your car?”
Lucas patted the front bonnet and said, “The engine might be flooded with water. It stopped working after I drove
over some

puddle.”
Jeremy tossed him the keys to his car. “Here, you can use my car to take your sister home first.”
Lucas caught the keys with one hand. His expression was
slightly stiff, but then he smiled. “Thank you for coming all the way out here to help us.”
Then, Lucas took a closer look at Corinne, who was standing quietly by the side. He had to admit he was rather
impressed by how she managed to have Jeremy eating out of the palm of her hand. Jeremy would never have
ignored Anya like that in the past.
“Jeremy, how are you going to get home, then? Why can’t you drive us home instead of giving us the car?” Anya
asked anxiously.
“No can do. The two of us want to take a walk along the bridge, ” said Jeremy. He then patted Corinne pointedly on
the head.
Corinne was speechless. ‘What the hell is he talking about? I for sure don’t want to take a walk along the bridge
with him,‘ she thought.
An imperceptible gloom flashed across her eyes after she looked at Corinne and then at Jeremy’s hand. However,
she soon put on her a fake smile and said, “Jeremy, it can get quite windy up here, and Corinne might catch a cold.
I think it’s best if we all leave together in the same car.”
Jeremy took off his coat and put it on Corinne. “It’s okay.
Someone will come to pick us up later. Didn’t you say you’re feeling unwell? Well, don’t just stand there and get in
the car already. Your brother will send you home to rest.”

“But Jeremy…”
Jeremy completely ignored her this time. He turned sideways to look at Corinne. “Let’s go. We need to talk.”
He then put both of his hands on her shoulder and steered her toward the direction of the river.

because she deliberately tampered with it when he went down to buy some drinks for her.
She thought that Jeremy would definitely ask Corinne to get out of the car so that he could personally send Anya
home first. She had been known to be weak and sickly, after all. She never imagined that he would actually choose
to walk along the bridge with Corinne and leave her to Lucas‘ care!
“Let’s go, Anya!” Lucas called out to her, snapping her out of her trance.
She nodded obediently, and the two of them walked over to where Jeremy’s sports car was parked. Sitting in the
car, she still had not given up, so she sent him a message.
[Jeremy, I’m sorry to make you come all the way here. Did I make Corinne unhappy again? I’m sorry. I didn’t mean
to. It’s just that I was feeling really sick just now. Can you please help me explain it to her? I’m really worried she
might get angry at me again.]
Jeremy’s phone beeped twice.
Corinne glanced at the message notification on the screen and

threw the phone to Jeremy.
“Mister, your precious Anya just texted you.”
