"I only went to the party because you asked me to. Look, what I'm saying is that it's fine if you don't want to give me a ride home, but you should at least drop me off at a place where I can hail a taxi," said Corinne.Lucas narrowed his eyes. "Miss Carew, you certainly have a lot of requests."Corinne brazenly looked back at him. "Any boss with a little bit of humanity left in him wouldn't have treated their staff the way you treated me."Lucas laughed."What's the matter, Miss Carew? You can't handle something as simple as this? I seem to recall you telling me that you're different from my sister. What was it again? "That she wouldn't be able to handle any hardships because she's a flower grown in a greenhouse while you only get better with every challenge that comes your way because you're like the weeds on the sidewalk which won't die no matter how much the others tried to kill it?"If that's the case, I look forward to you getting yourself out of this predicament. In fact,

"Alright, I'll get into the car. Thanks for doing this though."Corinne walked over to where the McLaren was parked. Tommy walked a few steps before her and respectfully opened the door for her.As soon as she got into the car, Corinne was enveloped in a thick haze of cigarette smoke. Jeremy was smoking in the car, and even though the car window was open, it still was not enough to make the smoke dissipate.'He's smoking more than usual… Seems like it was just one cigarette after another from when he was at Lunar Century Manor…' thought Corinne.Thinking of the baby in her tummy, Corinne was not happy about the second-hand smoke in the car, but she knew she had no right to complain about it since it was not her car. What she could do was roll down her window to make the smoke dissipate faster.After doing that, she said politely, "Thank you for giving me a ride, Mister Jeremy. You can just drop me off at the end of the highway and I'll take a taxi home."Jeremy leaned lazily agai

Corinne did not care why he was doing this. It could be his desire to control her or it could be he was looking for some excitement. It did not matter having it all pointed to him not having no respect for her, which was what she hated the most.'He's so self-centered and overbearing! He thinks he only needs to crook his finger, and any woman will come running to be his mistress just because he's rich and powerful. Why, he's as delusional as ever!' thought Corinne.Thinking about all of that infuriated Corinne. She vehemently pushed away Jeremy's hand and shouted, "That's right! I only want Mister Lucas' money and not yours, because your money is dirty! I don't want dirty money!"'My money is dirty?'Jeremy's face darkened. He looked at her glumly, trying to suppress his anger. He was so used to being in the driver's seat in everything, so it was inevitable he would get angry when he met a woman who would not submit to him. All of his efforts of talking himself out of his anger wer

Corinne did not want Jeremy to know where she lived so she said politely, "You don't have to go through all that trouble to send me home. It's enough for you to simply drop me off at the exit, and I'll take a taxi from there."Seeing that she was not going to give him her address, Jeremy simply said, "Drive us back to the mansion.""Yes, Mister Jeremy.""What? He's taking me back to the mansion? What's the meaning of this? Is he out of his mind? I don't want to go back to the mansion with him.'Corinne gritted her teeth. She had no choice but to tell him the name of the apartment she was staying in."Baelon Garden. That's the apartment I live in."Jeremy gestured with his chin indifferently, signaling Tommy to tell the driver to change course to Baelon Garden.Tommy overheard the conversation between Jeremy and Corinne, and he felt sorry for Jeremy. 'Mister Jeremy has been looking all over the place for Miss Corinne only to learn that she has a new husband. Poor him… How can he

Another thing was, guys were not typically as clean as girls, so Corinne and Xante asked Aaron to keep his personal belongings in his room in order to keep the living tidy. He was not allowed to display his garage kit in the space they all shared, nor was he allowed to use his exercise equipment outside of his room.Other than that, he was trained to put his shoes back in the closet as soon as he got home and similarly, to put his indoor slippers back in the same closet when he wrnt out.Did Aaron mind? Not really. He was used to it as the three of them grew up together.Jeremy became even more suspicious of Corinne when he saw that she was trying to avoid the conversation but then, suddenly, he heard the sound of someone entering the door passcode from the outside of the room.'Someone is back!' He thought with a frown and proceeded to look toward the door.Corrine knew it was definitely Aaron and it was because she knew exactly that, she became a little worried. She started rubb
