Chapter 103

“Why would you play the ukulele for them, then?”

Corinne pursed her lips. “You think I wanted to play for them? Some of the girls accused me of having an affair with the dean, which caused a misunderstanding among the students. The culprits will only apologize if I play the ukulele, so I had to put on a good performance! I respect the dean very much, so it’s important to me that his name isn’t tarnished.”

After hearing that, Jeremy turned to gaze intently at her before leaning closer all of a sudden.” Why didn’t you clarify to them about me?”

Corinne was startled when his handsome face, which looked attractive from every angle, leaned over so suddenly. Her breathing stopped, and she wondered to herself, ‘What is he doing?!’

“Ahem! Clarify what, exactly?”

Jeremy’s charmingly enigmatic eyes seemed to drag people deep into the depths of an abyss. He lowered his body even more as he said, “Clarify that I’m not some sugar daddy but your husband instead.”

The word ‘husband’ made Corinne’s heart skip a beat when it resonated just outside her ear.

When she finally snapped back to her senses, Corinne immediately rolled her eyes in disgust. “I’d rather not! I wouldn’t want anyone to know that I got married at such a young age. I’d still want to have a proper marriage with someone I genuinely like in the future!”

Hearing her say that she wanted to have a proper marriage with someone’ she ‘genuinely liked’, Jeremy’s face remained unchanged, but a thin layer of gloom seemed to shroud him as he said. with a teasing sneer, “Is that so? I’d be curious to see if anyone would be brave enough to marry someone like you in the future.”

Feeling as though she had been underestimated, Corinne raised an eyebrow unhappily and retorted, “What’s wrong with me? What do you mean ‘someone like me”?”

Jeremy stared at her with a bottomless gaze and said in an unclear tone, “You’re an assertive woman who grabs a random stranger from the street and kisses him. What kind of woman does that make you?”
