Jeremy, who was sitting at the head of the table of the meeting room in his company, immediately stood up. His usually aloof face was riddled with rarely-seen anxiety. “What happened? Why are you in the hospital? Are you sick?”

‘I should’ve gone with her to the Riveras!’ he thought. ‘Did they hurt her again?’

All kinds of possible scenarios flashed through his mind, making it difficult for him to breathe.

Corinne’s lips twitched. “Mister, I’m okay.”

Jeremy frowned. “Why did you go to the hospital if you’re okay? By the way, which hospital are you at right now?”

Corinne was starting to get a headache. “Lucas broke his foot when he tried to save me from getting hit by a car. He can’t walk at the moment and he lost his phone, so we have no way of contacting his family. I can’t carry him either, so…”

Jeremy heaved a sigh of relief. “You’re not allowed to carry him even if you have the strength to do so. Wait right there. I’ll be there right away.”

“Okay,” Corinne replied with a nod before hanging up the phone.

Jeremy put away his phone and looked at his subordinates, who were looking back at him with mouths agape. “Meeting’s over,” he announced coldly.

He then quickly walked out of the meeting room.

His subordinates immediately broke out in a spirited discussion after he left the room.

“Who do you think it was that called Mister Jeremy just now? It was the first time I ever saw him panicking like that.”

“It must be a woman!”

“I never heard that Mister Jeremy is in a relationship with anyone. He even ignored all the women who tried to get close to him! There are even some rumors going around that Mister Jeremy doesn’t like women…”

“But I heard he got married recently!”
