Chapter 1134

Aaron saw the look in Corinne’s eyes and knew what she was hinting at. Smiling, he said, “Why, Miss

Corinne. We’ve come to visit you, of course.”

“It’s been so long since we met, so we thought we’d drop by,” added Xante.

Both of them tacitly did not call her ‘Boss’.

“Great. You’ve come just at the right time. I was feeling bored, but with you guys here, we can play

some bridge to kill time.”

“Sure,” said Aaron with a smile.

“Yay! Mister Aaron gave me half-day off, so I can play with you guys too. I’ve always wanted to learn

how to play bridge,” said Annie happily.

At that moment, Pamela came out of the kitchen with two maids.

“Corinne, I heard you have some friends over, so I made some snacks for them. Tell them to try it while

it’s still hot!”

However, Corinne made no move to do so, which was weird since she had always been respectful of

Pamela.

Annie quickly stood up and said, “Thank you, Ma’am. That’s very thoughtful of you.”Books Chapters

Pamela smiled kindly at her. “You’re Annie, right? It’s been so long since you last dropped by that I

nearly don’t even recognize you anymore. My, my, you’ve certainly grown into a beautiful young lady.”

“You’re too kind, Ma’am,” said Annie, blushing.

Both Aaron and Xante got up to greet Pamela.

Since Pamela never met them before, she retained a little wariness when talking to them.

“You two must be Corinne’s friends. Sorry about the security checks, but Jeremy is really worried about

Corinne getting hurt. Please don’t take it personally,” she said politely.

Aaron smiled. “Don’t worry. It’s totally understandable.”

Xante said nothing.

Pamela gestured for the two maids to put down the snacks before sitting beside Corinne and Joey.

Only then did Annie, Aaron, and Xante sit.

“Try the snacks. I hope they’re to your liking,” said Pamela politely. After that, she picked one of

Corinne’s favorites and passed it to her. “Corinne, this is your favorite strawberry cookie. I’ve made

extra for you.”

“Thanks, but no thanks. I appreciate the gesture, but I’m not in the mood to eat any sweet stuff at the

moment,” said Corinne coldly.

Pamela’s hand paused. She did not get angry and passed the cookie to Joey instead. “Here, child. Try

this cookie, and let me know whether it’s good or not.”

Being a kid, Joey could not resist any sweet stuff, so he quickly took the cookie and ate it. Corinne

simply glanced at him and said nothing.

Since Pamela was there, Aaron and the rest of them found it awkward to talk about what they came for

so they all fell silent.

In the past, Pamela had never been the one to insert herself into Corinne’s friend group. She would go

back to her room after serving some snacks so that Corinne and her friend could talk more comfortably.
