Jeremy got up and pulled out a chair for her. “You don’t sound like you want me to come back at all.”

Corinne scoffed. “And you make it sound as if I have a say in that.”

Jeremy was not in a hurry to explain himself. Instead, he gestured at the chair with his chin and said, “Why don’t you take a seat?”
