Chapter 195


    Jeremy had a straight face as he turned around and went to get the bacon from the refrigerator Inside


    the kitchen, the two of them silently did the respective tasks without talking to each other. Jeremy’s


    gaze was constantly transfixed on the petite girl beside him as he chopped the bacon


    The mac and cheese with crispy bacon were finished in mere minutes, and Corinne said to Jeremy,


    “You can bring the bowls to the dining table now I’ll head to the bathroom for a bitt


    Jeremy had no objection as he picked up the two bowls and walked out of the kitchen.


    At that moment, Bowen the butler came in from the outside and was terrified to see Jeremy bringing


    the bowls to the table He looked all around and saw that no servants were wailing on duty. They had


    sneaked off somewhere and neglected their duties just because Jeremy was not there!

    “Sir! When did you return? Please allow me to help you! You shan’t be allowed to do these things!


    Jeremy nced at Bowen but did not hand over the bowls to him. He ced them down on the dining


    table, pulled out a chair, and sat down before asking in a deep voice, “Are you saying that t shouldn’t


    be allowed to do these things, but my missus can be left to her own devices?”


    Bowen was taken aback and immediately understood what Jeremy was implying. He exined


    shamefully. I’m very sorry, sir. I have failed in my duties. Thad just gone to the yard to water your


    grandfather’s orchids, and I didn’t know that the young ma’am had woken up and wanted to have


    dinner. The servants at home are resentful because of what happened to your sister, so…”


    Jeremy lowered his eyes and rebuttoned his cuffs. If they’re resentful, I can rece them with those


    who aren’t. “His tone was calm, but there was an intimidating boldness about him that sent chills down


    one’s spine


    Bowen did not dare to intercede for the servants because he could see that the young master was


    genuinely angry and not just giving him empty threats.


    Corinne came back from the bathroom to see Bowen, so she asked politely. “Would you like some mac


    and cheese, Bowen? There’s still some in the pot!”


    Bowen was ttered and quickly waved his hands. “Thank you for your kind offer, but I’m not hungry! I,


    uhh… I still have some things to do, so please enjoy the meal with Mister Jeremy. I’ll send someone to


    clean up the dishester.”


    After saying that, Bowen excused himself, went to look for thezy servants, and gave earful.


    them an


    Corinne sat down and saw a takeout box of barbecue on the table, and it was from her favorite


    roadside shack too! Her eyes then lit up.


    She asked in disbelief, “Did you buy this?”


    Jeremy was expressionless. ‘Tommy bought some when he passed by the shack.”


    Corinne believed him and took some to eat.


    The man cocked his eyebrows. “Did I say you could eat that?”


    Corinne rolled her eyes at him. “You can eat the mac and cheese I made, and I’ll eat the barbecue you


    bought This is an equivalent exchange of resources! It is neither a loss nor a debt!”


    Jeremy snorted coldly, but a smile shed across the corner of his lips as he picked up the fork and


    lowered his head to taste the mac and cheese she made


    It was quite delicious.


    “Did you go to the hospital today?” the man asked suddenly.


    Corinne nodded while eating her barbecued meat “Yeah, my stepmother got injured Tommy must ve


    told you too, right?”


    Jeremy then asked, “Did you get yourself checked too?”


    Corinne raised an eyebrow in confusion. “Why should I? I’m fine ”


    Jeremy stirred the macaroni in his bowl and pointed out, “Last night was your first time, after all You


    should ve checked if I hurt you due to my loss of control”


    Corinne’s face turned red,and she nearly choked on her mouthful of meat. “Aack! Cough, cough. cough
