Chapter 173

“That’s good!” Tommy was relieved. If anything happened to Corinne, he was dead sure Jeremy would be pissed.

After what happened today, Tommy could tell Jeremy’s feelings for Corinne had gone past how he should feel for a contracted wife.

Jeremy cared about Corinne-and very much so.

“Sir, a storm is picking up, and the helicopter can’t fly in such weather. I’ve arranged for the nearest car to pick us up, and it’s here. Why don’t you and Miss Corinne get in the car?”

That answered Corinne’s question. ‘That explained why they arrived so fast. They came here in a helicopter.’

Jeremy responded and gave his command, “Stay here until the police arrive. Make sure all the kidnappers are captured. Don’t let any of them go.

“Sir, yes, sir!” Tommy nodded. “Understood!”

After that, Jeremy carried Corinne and strode toward the car in front of them, all while Tommy escorted them with the umbrella.

The flustered Corinne struggled to get down from Jeremy’s arms. “Mister, I’m not hurt. I can walk by myself…”
