Corinne turned to find Pam smiling at her from the kitchen.
"Come have your breakfast, Corinne. We saved some for you."
Corinne nodded, walked to the dining room, and sat at the table. Pam instructed the servant to serve her some piping hot breakfast before she sat down next to her. "Dig in, Corinne."
Pam was absolutely glowing with happiness, and the reason for that was, of course, Jeremy.
"Grandma, why didn''t anyone wake me up this morning?" asked Corinne after she took a bite of her food.
Pam grinned and said, "Well, Jeremy wouldn''t let anyone do that. He asked us to let you sleep in since you had an exhausting day yesterday. Eat more, Corinne. You need all the energy you can get. They always say that ''absence makes the heart grow fonder'', so I''m sure you have a lot of catching up to do with each other."
Corinne started blushing when she heard that. ''D*mn it! Jeremy must''ve said something to make Grandma think we were up to no goodst night!''
"Um... Grandma,st night, Jeremy and I slept in se..."
"I know, I know. It''s totally understandable to want to do that after not seeing each other for so long. There''s no need to be shy!" said Pam before Corinne could tell her they had slept in separate rooms. ''Oh my god. This is so embarrassing,'' thought Corinne. She decided not to make things worse by trying to exin herself.
"Ahem! I''ll be going outter, so can you and Francine please look after the kids for me?" she asked.
Pam nodded. "You''re going to thepany to look for Jeremy, right?"Exclusive content from N?velDrama.Org.
Corinne nodded. "Yeah. I have to exin to him what happened during the three years he was away from thepany."
"I understand. Go ahead. Don''t worry about the kids; plenty of people will be looking after them here," said Pam.
Corinne was diforted by the way Pam was looking at her. It was as if the olddy was already imagining Corinne giving birth to another great-grandchild for her.
That was not going to happen as she did not want to give birth again!
She quickly finished her breakfast, said goodbye to Pam, and walked out of the door.
She then drove to Holden Group and happened to reach around lunchtime. She promised Jeremy that she would take him somewhere.
The atmosphere in the building was particrly solemn and quiet, even more than usual, because the strict Jeremy was back.
All the employees were extremely curious. They had so many questions they wanted to discuss, but they did not dare to ck off since Jeremy was back.
Corinne was greeted by everyone staring at her when she walked out of the elevator.
''Miss Corinne is here, too!'' They decided to put their minds on their work and put off gossiping until after work.
Corinne faced no obstacles as she walked into the president''s office.
The secretary brought in a cup of coffee for her. "Miss Corinne, Mister Jeremy is still in a meeting. It should be over soon though, so please wait a moment." "Okay," said Corinne. She then sat at the president''s desk and started flipping through some documents.
The secretary retreated out of the office quietly.
Corinne took a sip of her coffee. She snapped shut the documents after seeing Jeremy had already signed all of them.
After a while, Jeremy came back to his office. His icy gaze softened when he saw Corinne sitting at his desk and leisurely drinking coffee.
"Why are you here so early?" he asked.
Corinne took a sip of her coffee before answering, "It''s nearly lunchtime. Have you forgotten that I said I''m going to take you somewhere today?"
