Chapter 1636:
Corrine didn’t bother looking up. Her reply was as flat as it was direct.
“You talk too much.”
Those within earshot were stunned.
Did Corrine really not know what kind of family the Charleses were?
Was she seriously unafraid he might just pull a gun on her right then? Or did she think she had more than one
life to throw away by being this bold?
After Taylor and his entourage finally left the company, Corrine returned to Jules’ office.
“Well done,” Jules said, openly impressed.
Corrine, however, barely acknowledged the compliment. Instead, she stared at Jules’ face, her brows pulling
together slightly. “It's been two days. Why does it still look this bad?”

Clearly, Zeke hadn't held back in the slightest. So much for friendship!
“I'm curious,” Corrine went on, eyeing him. “Weren't you and Zeke best friends? How did it cto blows?”

his own—but their bond had always seemed unbreakable.

Corrine rolled her eyes without restraint. “You grown men are ridiculous. Fighting like a couple of teenagers over
something petty.”
Before Jules could get a word in, Corrine spoke again. “I need a car | can borrow.”
Jules gave her a look. “Heading to Mountains Highway tonight?” She nodded, casually tapping the bridge of her
nose.
“Also, figure out a way to cover your bruises up or Grandpa will hear of it.”
If word of the fight reached the old man, Jules might face another round of scolding.
Later that evening, Corrine left the company and drove straight to the hotel where Taylor was staying.

“It's been a while. Did you miss me?”
Instead of answering, Corrine narrowed her eyes. “First, tell me, are you the older one or the younger brother?”
Taylor's playful expression darkened instantly. Annoyance crept into his voice. “Obviously, I'm the younger
brother.”
