Chapter 1391


    Corinne did not seem perturbed. “Hurry up. Which song would you like to listen to? I’ll y it for you so


    it won’t feel awkward when we don’t have anything to talk about during the call.”


    Jeremy remainedposed and unaffected. Even her shallow breathing wasforting to her. He


    replied, “Let’s listen to ‘Bridge over Troubled Water’.”


    Corinne used her music yer to search for the song and found several by different artists. She asked,


    “Who’s the singer?”


    Jeremy replied, “Simon and Garfunkel.”


    Music soon filled the air as Corinne yed the track. After listening briefly to the song, she suddenly


    remarked, “I never felt such a significant generation gap between us before this, but I feel it now that


    I’m listening to this song! We listen to songs from different eras, haha…”


    Jeremy stopped typing on his keyboard. He seemed to take some offense to Corinne’s remark. “Are


    you bothered by my age?”


    Corinne sighed. “There’s nothing I can do about it even if I am. You being older than I am is a fact. We


    can’t turn back the clock.”


    Jeremy’s expression soured, and the atmosphere in the car became heavy. He did not usually care


    much about his age, but he did so when it came to Corinne.


    His silence elicited a chuckle from her. “Why aren’t you saying anything? Are you upset?”


    “No,” Jeremy replied curtly.


    Corinne then said, “Your song choice is a little dated, but it’s pretty nice, especially the lyrics. It’s quite


    fitting for the moment.”


    Jeremy did not respond to her remark. Instead, he asked, “What songs do you like to listen to? Choose


    one that youngsters like you enjoy.”


    “You probably won’t enjoy the songs I listen to,” Corinne replied.


    “You don’t know that. Put one on,” Jeremy insisted.


    Corinne proceeded to y a song that was chock full of rapping, leaving Jeremy at a loss.


    As expected, Jeremy could not quite appreciate that sort of music. The two of them continued to share


    their music preferences and made small talk as three hours passed.


    The car eventually arrived at Adam Manor where Sophia’s father resided. Jeremy informed Corinne,


    “I’ve arrived.” He then ced the phone—of which the call was still connected—into his pocket before


    exiting the car and walking into the house.


    Adam had arranged for several people to wait for Jeremy’s arrival. One of them greeted him, “Mister


    Jeremy, we’ve been told to receive you on your arrival here.”


    Jeremy nodded and replied, “Take me to see Mister Adam.”


    “Of course. Please follow me,” the man said politely, bowing slightly as he gestured for Jeremy toe


    with him.


    Jeremy, along with Tommy, followed the man into Adam’s vast estate. He finally arrived at a spacious


    gym where Adam was lifting weights.

    Adam had maintained an impressive physique despite his old age, and that could be considered a


    testament to his discipline.


    The young man who led Jeremy there said, “Sir, Mister Jeremy is here.”


    Adam ced the barbell down and smiled at Jeremy. “My son-inw has arrived!”
