“That’s good!” Tommy was relieved. If anything happened to Corinne, he was dead sure Jeremy would

be pissed.

After what happened today, Tommy could tell Jeremy’s feelings for Corinne had gone past how he

should feel for a contracted wife.

Jeremy cared about Corinne-and very much so.

“Sir, a storm is picking up, and the helicopter can’t fly in such weather. I’ve arranged for the nearest car

to pick us up, and it’s here. Why don’t you and Miss Corinne get in the car?”

That answered Corinne’s question. ‘That explained why they arrived so fast. They came here in a

helicopter.’

Jeremy responded and gave his command, “Stay here until the police arrive. Make sure all the

kidnappers are captured. Don’t let any of them go.

“Sir, yes, sir!” Tommy nodded. “Understood!”

After that, Jeremy carried Corinne and strode toward the car in front of them, all while Tommy escorted

them with the umbrella.

The flustered Corinne struggled to get down from Jeremy’s arms. “Mister, I’m not hurt. I can walk by

myself…”

However, Jeremy tightened his arms to hold her still. He looked down and warned her, “Don’t move. If

you move again, I’m going to throw you into the ditch.”

Corinne did not dare to move anymore. She pursed her lips and rolled her eyes. ‘How is it that this man

can’t be nice to me for more than three seconds?”

Jeremy put Corinne safely on the front passenger seat and even helped her to fasten the seat belt.

Because of that, their faces were dangerously close to one another.

Corinne was not used to that and tried to buckle her seatbelt herself. She reached for the safety belt

and pulled it to her, but she did not know what came together was Jeremy’s body too.

Jeremy’s body faltered, having been pulled down as Corinne tugged at the belt. His chin ended up

resting on her collarbone. He turned his head to the side and accidentally, his lips grazed her fair neck.

His pupils shrunk, and his throat felt dry. His Adam’s apple bobbed before he quickly let go and

straightened himself.

Due to the intimate contact that sent a jolt of electricity within Corinne, she had shivers all over .her

body. She turned her head to the side sheepishly and blinked off her embarrassment.

Straightening himself, Jeremy stood beside the door and glared at her from a condescending angle, his

gaze burning with ardor.

The little rascal looked…awfully seductive.

As he closed the door for her, he untightened his necktie in annoyance, walked to the driver’s seat,

and got into the car.

The rain continued to pour heavily as the car drove on the road in the wilderness, the wipers swiping

left and right continuously.

Neither of them said anything, and the ambiance was awkward.

Finally, Corinne cleared her throat and asked, “Didn’t you say you don’t care about me and told the

kidnappers to do anything that they want with me? Have you found your way to your

consciousness and decided to rescue me?”

Jeremy glanced at her faintly. “You heard everything?”

Corinne looked out the window and used her hand to support her chin. “Yes. I heard everything,” she

grunted, “and I think you’re a jerk, too!”

Jeremy looked at the road in front of him and explained, “If I showed that I was eager to rescue you,

those people wouldn’t let their guard down with you. They’d even use the cruelest method to torture

you in an attempt to provoke me.

“Plus, I have to deal with this discreetly and not alert anyone. What if there are more people thinking of

kidnapping you to threaten me in the future? You won’t have any peace, even if our relationship ends.”

‘Hm… He’s got a point, though.’ Corinne thought. ‘Jeremy’s identity is very special. It’s only natural that

many would try to look for his weakness to threaten him.”

She curled her lips sarcastically, looked over to Jeremy’s side, and raised an eyebrow. “So you know

you’re going to bring a lot of trouble to my life.”

She cheekily raised her eyebrows as she spoke, her red lips revealing her pearly white teeth.

Suddenly, Jeremy’s face looked tense. His eyes turned red, and his throat went dry in thirst. With just

one look at her, a strange sensation ran through his body hotly, and the heat rushed through every part

of his body.

It was not a weird feeling, and all adult men knew what it meant.

He stepped on the brake without any warning, sending Corinne lurching forward. Thankfully, her

seatbelt pulled her back.

She furrowed her brow and looked at Jeremy curiously. “Mister, what are you doing?”

“Get down,” Jeremy demanded coldly.

Corinne was dumbstruck, clueless as to what was happening. “What? It’s raining! What did I do to

you?”
