Chapter 560
“Mom, you know how dispirited Uncle Jeremy was for the past month or so! She finally found Corinne after searching so hard for
a month, we can’t be a burden to Uncle Jeremy. If Corinne ran off because of our poor hospitality, then Uncle Jeremy is going to
be very pitiful!”
Annie’s mother smiled helplessly and lovingly, “Alright, stop nagging! I know you feel sorry for your uncle. I will treat Corinne
cordially!”
Annie smiled, feeling happy. “That’s right!”
At that moment, she heard the sound of a car pulling into the front yard. She got so excited that she let go of her mother’s hand.
“Mom! That must be Uncle Jeremy and Corinne! Hurry up and prepare more food. I’ll first go out to greet them!”
Upon saying that, Annie ran with excitement.
Annie’s mother shook her head while smiling helplessly, then she returned to the kitchen to prepare food with the housekeeper.
When Annie rushed out to the front yard, Jeremy just got out of the car after the driver respectfully opened the door for him.
“You’re here, Uncle Jeremy! We’re having a feast today!” Anne said, coming up to him with a smile.
Glancing at her indifferently, Jeremy hummed as an acknowledgment and walked into the mansion.
Annie did not find it strange. She got used to her uncle being cool and distant. He was like that since she was a child.
She did not follow Jeremy into the mansion. Instead, she ran to the car in excitement, opening the door to search for someone.
While getting the car door, she nagged, “How can Uncle Jeremy act like this? How can he not wait for Corinne and go inside on
his own? Hmph! He’s not even afraid that she’ll dump him and run away again! Corinne, I’m here to welcome you!”
However, after she opened the door, she did not see the person she expected inside the car.
“Where’s aunt?” Anne poke her head into the car, but she saw nobody in the back seat. She looked at the front, and she only
saw the driver and Tommy.
The driver and Tommy turned around as well, looking at her in surprise.
Tommy said, “Miss Annie, who are you looking for?”
Anne said, “I’m looking for Corinne! Didn’t she come with Uncle Jeremy?”
Tommy looked upset. He then cautiously instructed Annie, “I’ll remind you, Miss Annie. It’s better for you to not mention Miss
Corinne in front of Mister Jeremy later.”
Annie frowned. She got a little unhappy when she realized things were not how she anticipated. “What’s the matter? Could it be
that Uncle Jeremy and Corinne didn’t get back together after they got reunited?”
Tommy shook his head regretfully.
“So don’t mention Miss Corinne in front of Mister Jeremy. You’ll affect his mood.”
Anne could not figure out what was going on. If she were to ask Jeremy, he certainly would not tell her since he was a man of
few words. Therefore, she immediately got in the car and asked Tommy about everything!
“What exactly is going on? He has already found her, but why didn’t the plot develop as scripted? Could it be that Uncle Jeremy
is still cool and distant to Corinne, and he didn’t coax his wife who ran away from home to come home?”
Tommy frowned with a complicated expression. “It’s not Mister Jeremy’s fault.”
Annie got even more confused. “It’s not Uncle Jeremy’s fault? So it’s Corinne’s fault then? She’s such a good person, what fault
would she have?”
Tommy knew it was not his place to discuss his employer too much. However, Annie had a reckless character, so he was afraid if
he did not tell her, she would keep mentioning Corinne in front of Jeremy after she went inside later and get him all worked up.
