Chapter 1174


    Sunny felt embarrassed at the mention of his amateur hacker league. Scratching his head, he said,


    “Most of the hackers in the league are high-school students, so they’re only starting out. I wouldn’t have


    asked you for help if I knew they could do it. Please, Xante. Help me out this one time.”

    Xante pinched the bridge of her nose, thinking, ‘Oh, how did I ever get saddled with this teenager?’


    …


    It was alreadyte in the night when Jeremy got home. Everyone, apart from the household staff


    working the night shift, was asleep.


    The maid went up to take Jeremy’s coat off him. She knew he had juste back from abroad that


    day. Considering the time difference, she asked, “Mister Jeremy, have you eaten? Should I cook


    something for you?”


    Jeremy simply waved her away tiredly before going upstairs.


    When he entered his bedroom, he became even more overwhelmed with loss the moment his nose


    was hit by Corinne’s familiar scent. The smell of her shampoo lingering in the air meant she had taken


    a shower and blow-dried her hair before leaving this morning.


    ‘She must’ve nned her escape down to thest detail since she even had the time to take a shower


    before she went,’ thought Jeremy.


    He was about to go take a shower to cool himself down when he heard a noiseing from the


    bed.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…


    The person on the bed, who seemed to be fast asleep, rolled to the other side. If he listened closely, he


    could hear the sound of quiet snoring.


    He stopped walking in shock and stared intently at the person on the bed. The person was curled up


    and hugging a pillow…dressed in Corinne’s pajamas!


    ‘Is it her? Did shee back?’


    Forgetting to turn on the light, Jeremy half-ran to the bed. “Corinne. Hey, Corinne. Is that you?”


    The person on the bed stirred in her sleep. “Wha…?”


    Jeremy quickly scooped her up and hugged her tightly to his chest as though fearing she would run


    away again. “You crazy little rascal! Oh, I’m so d you’re back!”


    ‘That’s why the room smelled like her. She must’ve taken a shower just now,’ thought Jeremy while


    vigorously sniffing the woman’s hair. He simply could not get enough of her smell.


    However, the crushing hug caused the woman to wake uppletely. “Jeremy, what the heck are you


    doing?”


    Jeremy immediately tensed up. Sensing something was off, he pushed the woman away and reached


    out his hand to turn on the light located above the headboard.


    His eyes darkened when he saw Sophia’s face.


    “Why are you sleeping here?” he asked after standing up.


    Sophia rubbed her eyes sleepily. “Grandpa arranged for me to sleep in Francine’s room, but she kept


    squeezing me out of the bed. I had no choice but to sleep here,” she exined in a tone that showed


    she was not aware she had done anything wrong.


    “Get out,” ordered Jeremy coldly. It was obvious he was not happy. “You can sleep in any room you


    want except for this one!”


    Sophia shrugged unhappily. “Why not? Miss Corinne isn’t here, and it’s not like I’m sleeping on the


    same bed as you. Why can’t I sleep here? Anyway, you know I can’t sleep in a guest room, right? Plus,


    even if she’s here, I really don’t think Miss Corinne would mind if I sleep here for the night.”
