Corinne said nothing and concentrated on driving toward Serenity Bay.
Jason had always been a talkative person. He could talk endlessly when he had something to say, and
when he had nothing to say, he would find something to talk about.
“Corinne, which friend’s ce were you over at just now?” he asked.
Corinne naturally did not want to let him know about Jeremy.
“It’s not like you’d know if I told you the name,” answered Corinne.
“I ask because I care about you, Corinne.”
“Thanks for your concern, but it’s best if we stick to talking about business today.”
“You must be the one person who hates me the most in the world, Corinne, “
said Jason helplessly.
“I don’t hate you. I’m just not interested in you.”
Jason put his hand to his forehead dramatically. “Then you might as well hate me! Corinne, do you
have to be this blunt? I’m really hurt.”
Corinne thought he was talking too much. Her gaze hardened as she huffed, “Sit tight!”
Before Jason could grasp what was going to happen, Corinne floored the elerator.
The car immediately sped up, which caused Jason to nearly puke.
They reached Serenity Bay in no time at all.
Corinne got out of the car as if nothing happened and looked at therge area ofnd around her.
“Which side belongs to yourpany?”
However, no one answered her for a while.
Confused, Corinne looked back and saw Jason retching while holding onto a tree. She was
speechless, to say the least.
After a while, Jason straightened his body and patted his chest. “Corinne, which driving school did you
graduate from? It felt like you were flying a ne instead of driving a car!” 1 “Control yourself, Jason.
Ande over here so we can talk about business,”

said Corinne impassively.
Jason sighed and said, “You really don’t care about me at all, huh, Corinne.”
He then walked up to her and pointed in a particr direction. “That small area over there. That’s my
company’snd.”
Corinne looked at where he pointed at and said, “It’s quite small.”
Jason did not deny it. “It’s not that big, but it’s strategic. The piece ofnd you recently bought plus this
little bit of mypany’snd is like icing on the cake.”
Corinne narrowed her eyes in thought. After a while, she said, “How about you sell yournd to me?” 1
Jason shook his head. “No way! You know my intention has always been to work with Holden Group to
develop Serenity Bay. I could’ve just asked you whether you want to buy it if I wanted to sell it to you.”
Corinne really found Jason’snd to be too small for him to be making terms and conditions like that.
Even if she agreed, there was no guarantee that the other shareholders in thepany would agree.
However, Jason was right-the location was strategic. When connected with thend she bought, a
viewing tform that offered a panoramic view could be built.
She walked over, wanting to get closer and see if there were any other advantages to thend.
Jason followed beside her. “I’m not in a hurry, Corinne. You can take your time to think about it.”
“Okay,” said Corinne without breaking her stride.
What she did not notice was a woman quietly spying on her from a distance away. 1 It was
approaching evening by the time Sophia got back to her hotel.
When she passed by the supermarket, she asked her driver to stop the car, and she went in to buy
some groceries.
Recently, she really fell in love with cooking for Jeremy. Every time she finished cooking and called him
over to the dining table to eat, she would get a hard earned, gentle thanks from him.
That might not sound special, but to her, it felt like the most romantic sentence in the whole world. Plus,
she would always get a sense of satisfaction watching the love of her life eat the food she cooked.
