Chapter 1112


    “It’s nothing, really. We just miss her, that’s all. But I must say, I’m impressed by your time management


    skill, Mister Jeremy. After all, you managed to keep both sides of your affairs happy,” said Aaron with a


    sarcastic smile. It was obvious he was mocking Jeremy.


    “Oh, I’m nothingpared to you,” said Jeremy calmly. He then picked up a ss of juice and passed


    it to Corinne.


    Normally, he would never talk to someone like Aaron, but since Aaron was Corinne’s friend, he thought


    he should at least attempt to be civil.


    Aaron scoffed and was about to say something else when Xante nudged him with her thigh as a


    warning.


    Initially, Corinne was not really in favor of letting Jeremye with her, but she had no choice but to


    allow him to tag along after he expressed just how unhappy he was about her meeting Aaron.


    However, she instantly regretted not standing her ground after she saw how awkward Aaron and


    Xante’s interaction was with Jeremy. Not to mention, it kind of defeated the purpose of meeting up with


    them since, more than likely, Aaron and Xante would not feelfortable enough to tell her what


    happened.


    Therefore, it was a blessing Jeremy suddenly received a call from Zeke at that moment.


    “Jeremy, are you at Twilight?” asked Zeke.


    Jeremy raised his eyebrow. “Yeah. How did you know?”


    “We wouldn’t even know you’re back if Jason didn’t tell us,” replied Zeke grumpily. “Why didn’t you call


    us?”


    “Where are you guys now?”


    “We’re at Twilight, too! We saw your car parked in the underground parking lot, so we called you to ask


    if you want to have a few drinks with us.”


    “Which room?”


    “A08!”


    “Okay, I’ll be right there.”

    After Jeremy hung up the phone, he looked at Aaron and Xante contemtively before saying gently to


    Corinne, “I’m going to hang out with Zeke and the others for a while. I’ll swing byter to get you,


    okay?”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…


    He was willing to let Corinne hang out with Aaron as long as someone else was in the room with them.


    After all, he knew his presence would only make it awkward for them to talk about what they wanted.


    Happy to get rid of him, Corinne nodded rapidly. “Okay. Have fun.”


    Jeremy stood up and left the room. Before he did, he warned Aaron, “Don’t make her drink any alcohol,


    okay?”


    “We don’t need you to tell us that, Mister Jeremy. We’re not stupid enough to let a pregnant woman


    drink! We’re even more worried about her than you are,” said Aaron with a scoff. He muttered


    something else under his breath, but Jeremy decided to let the matter slide as he was a good friend of


    Corinne’s.


    Jason immediately dropped his nonchnt attitude and sat up straighter as soon as Jeremy left the


    room.


    “Boss, are you sure you want to spend the rest of your life with that old geezer?” he asked seriously.


    Corinne sipped her juice absent-mindedly. “At least he’s not as much of a jerk as you.”


    She found it weird Aaron would suddenly pick on Jeremy like that since he did not really show any


    objection to them being together in the past. In fact, he had always behaved politely whenever he was


    with Jeremy.


    Aaron shrugged. “Yes, I admit I’m a dirtbag, but I never pretended to be anything else other than that.


    Boss, you do know the girls who I’ve hooked up with never expected me to settle down with them,


    right? It’s like an unspoken agreement between me and them that I’m just in it for the good times. I


    can’t sit by and watch you getting yed by Jeremy!”
