Chapter 280

By the time Corinne woke up again, the sky outside the window was already dark.

The side effects of the antihistamines injected into her system made her very sleepy, and she slept incredibly deeply at that time. However, her condition soon recovered somewhat, and she was able to sit up on her own.

As soon as she sat up, her first instinct was to look around, whereupon she saw the tall figure of a man sitting on the sofa in the ward.

She was startled, and when she looked closely, she discovered that it was Jeremy. He was sitting lazily on the sofa with a laptop on his lap. His forehead was supported on his hand, and it seemed that he was focused on some important work matters.

“You’re awake?” His attention was clearly on the laptop, yet he knew that she was awake without even bothering to look up at her.

Corinne frowned and asked in surprise, “Why are you still here?”

Jeremy glanced at her, reached out for the coffee on the table, and took a sip. “Didn’t someone tell me not to leave even after they’ve fallen asleep?”

Corinne’s lips twitched awkwardly. “Didn’t I say that you can leave when Annie comes back? Where is she?” She looked left and right but saw no sign of Annie in the ward.
