NovelEnglishChapter 1835 Corinne turned to find Pamela smiling at her from the kitchen.
"Chave your breakfast, Corinne. We saved sfor you." Corinne nodded, walked to the dining room, and sat at the table. Pamela instructed the servant to serve her spiping hot breakfast before she sat down next to her.
"Dig in, Corinne." Pamela was absolutely glowing with happiness, and the reason for that was, of course, Jeremy.
"Grandma, why didn't anyone wakeup this morning?" asked Corinne after she took a bite of her food.

You need all the energy you can get. They always say that1 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 good last night!' "Um... Grandma, last 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 Pamela 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 explain herself.
"Ahem! I'll be going out later, so can you and Francine please look after the kids for me?" she asked. Pamela nodded. "You're going to the company to look for Jeremy, right?" Corinne nodded. "Yeah. I have to explain to him what happened during the three years he was away from the company." "I understand. Go ahead. Don't worry about the kids; plenty of people will be looking after them here," said Pamela.
Corinne was discomforted by the way Pamela was looking at her. It was as if the old lady was already imagining Corinne giving birth to another greatgrandchild 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 Pamela, 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 particularly 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 slack 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 sdocuments.
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 cback to his office. His icy gaze softenedm 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 m lunchtime. Have you forgotten that I said I'm going to take you somewhere today?"
