Man, what's wrong with you? novel Chapter 2

It was obvious that Jessie was in the wrong here, but she pleaded to Jeremy as if she wasn't guilty at all.

With her red lips turned into a pout, Jessie's voice rang so sweetly, which made Sherry cringe.

'What a flirt!

So this is the kind of woman Jeremy likes.

Should I just give her the necklace and be done with it?'

There was a bitter smile on Sherry's face, and the jewelry box in her hand was a little deformed from how tightly she was holding it. Just as she was ready to give the necklace to Jessie, Jeremy suddenly spoke up, "You go first, Jessie."

She looked at Jeremy, in disbelief at what he had just said. 'What has gotten into him? Is he joking?'

But upon seeing the undeniable look on his face, she immediately understood that the man was serious with what he had said.

Not getting what she wanted, Jessie stared coldly at Sherry as she walked out the jewelry store. Then, she smiled and stood on her toes to kiss Jeremy on his lips. "Honey, I'm waiting for your good news."

But Jeremy wasn't paying attention to her. He turned his head to look back at Sherry, making Jessie kiss on the edge of his jaw instead.

Rolling her eyes, Sherry kept on walking away from the two as her lips curled up in disdain.

Just when Sherry was able to hail a taxi, Jeremy pulled her into his strong arms.

The familiar and pleasant smell of cologne filled her nose in an instant, making her heart tremble.

'What is he doing!'

Without a word, Jeremy led her down the sidewalk and pushed her into his sleek, black Lamborghini.

Sherry did not have any interest to stay another second there and tried to leave. But Jeremy acted quicker.

With a click, he locked all doors, trapping Sherry inside.

'What on earth does this man want!' Sherry scolded. Turning to face him, she looked at Jeremy coldly. "Mr. Ou, if you have anything to say, please just say it now. It's easy for people to misunderstand what had just happened, with you shoving me in your car like that."

The man frowned, apparently surprised by Sherry's words, but soon his eyes flashed with a bit of empathy.

He smacked on his lips and gave a quick glance out the window before looking straight into Sherry's eyes. "You've misunderstood. I have nothing to do with that woman,"

Jeremy said casually, although there was a firmness in his tone.

As much as Sherry did everything she could to keep calm, she hid the hint of pain that flashed in her eyes.
