Chapter 325
Jeremy straightened Corinne’s face and continued to lead her to the tform so as not to miss the next
train.
As they walked, Jeremy solemnly called her name, “Corinne Carew, let’s start over.‘
Corinne tilted her head, raised her eyebrows, and looked at him incredulously. “How?”
“We’ll start by going on dates with each other. What do you say? Will you give this old man a chance?”
Corinne frowned and, giving it much thought, replied, Mister, I don’t think we’re—”
She was cut off before she said the word ‘suitable‘.
Jeremy did not let her finish her sentence. “Don’t be so fast to turn me down. Give me a chance to
pursue you again. Don’t worry. From now on, I won’t force you to live my life. I’ll try to learn to live the
way you live too. You like to take the subway to go out. You like to eat street food. You like to go to
escape rooms. You like to watch movies. All this I can go with you.

“But of course, I’ll take you to the best restaurants in the city too so that you can enjoy the most
luxurious life imaginable. I want to give you all the best in this world. As long as you want it and as long
as I have it, I’ll give anything to you.”
No woman would be able to resist such an offering from a handsome man with a deep melodious
voice.
Corinne’s heart actually skipped a beat, but the corners of her lips curled up with sarcasm. “Mister, you
should be ashamed of yourself. Didn’t you say the same thing to Miss Anya not long ago?”
However, her words were drowned out by a howling sound the subway train had arrived. The subway
train rushed past them beforeing to a screeching halt.
Corinne was not sure whether Jeremy had heard what she said. He did not say anything back to her
and just pulled her by the hand into the subway train.
It was rush hour, and a lot of people were taking the subway. There were no free seats, so they had no
choice but to remain standing.
It was easy to spot Jeremy from the crowd since he was a good head taller than anyone there. Not to
mention, he had a certain something about him that always made others see him as extraordinary. The
other women in the carriage kept sneaking nces at him with starry eyes.
Corinne was forced to squeeze into his arms; there was not the slightest room for her to move around.
Their bodies were so close that they could even feel each other’s heartbeat.
Corinne felt so awkward that she started to wriggle away from Jeremy in a bid to keep some distance
between them. However, the passengers standing next to her were all men, and Jeremy would never
allow the love of his life to have any physical contact with them.
He wrapped his arms around her, pressed her tightly in his arms, and gently ordered, “Stay still. Don’t
move.”
Corinne was not happy, but she quieted down after Jeremy put his chin on her head and started to
exin in a low voice, ”
There is nothing between me and Anya. I see her as my savior and nothing more. I told you that she
once saved me, and because of that, she became weak and sickly. I owe her, so in some cases, I can’t
just ignore her.”
It turned out that he had heard what she said before getting into the carriage.
“So you promised yourself to her, then?” Corinne asked pointedly.
Jeremy frowned. “You’re talking nonsense again! She was only ten years old at that time. How was I
supposed to promise myself to her?”
Corinne snorted coldly. “Well, nothing is stopping you from doing that now that she’s all grown up.”
Jeremy knew that she was just saying those things out of anger, and at the same time, he felt a little
happy because the fact that she was angry meant that she cared about him after all. He could not help
but smile aftering to this conclusion.
He lightly rubbed his chin against the top of her head. “Do you really want me to do that?”
“Be my guest. It has nothing to do with me anyways,” said Corinne unhappily.
“Well, how about I promise myself to you instead? I’m willing to give you my heart and my body if you’ll
have it.”
