Jeremy glared daggers at Terry, who broke out in a nervous sweat. 'Who...is he? Why does he look so intimidating?' wondered Terry.

Once Jeremy's eyes shifted away from the father and landed on Corinne, the grimness in his gaze softened. He arched an eyebrow and opened his hands slightly. "Did you miss me?"

Corinne looked at him, her clear eyes on the verge of welling up with tears, but her tone still lacked warmth. "Where have you been? Why didn't you reply to my messages?"

Jeremy walked up to her and wrapped his arm around her waist to pull her into a warm embrace.

I'm sorry for being late again."

Jeremy, knowing what Corinne wanted to say, patted her back gently. "I'll never leave you again."
