Jeremy snorted. “I brought you here to be a bridesmaid, but you ruined the bride’s wedding on your own accord. How do you plan to explain yourself?”

Corinne frowned. “To be honest with you, I know better than to meddle in your family’s affairs, but scumbags are the bane of society, and I am duty-bound to end their existence if I see one.”

Jeremy nearly let out a chuckle as he smirked. “I never took you for a self-styled vigilante.”
