Chapter 330
As soon as she stepped out of the fast food restaurant, Corinne heard a stampede coming from behind her. She
turned to look back and saw the same group of people chasing after her. Moreover, some reporters had received a
tip–off of her whereabouts and were rushing over to where she was with their cameras held up high.
Both Jeremy and Corinne thought it would be best if they forgo the taxi because taxi drivers were known to be
sensitive to the subject of scammers who cheat people out of their
money by pretending to get into an accident with their cars. It would be disastrous for Jeremy and Corinne if their
taxi driver joined the angry mob.
“Run, Mister!” Corinne grabbed Jeremy’s hand, and the two of them started running away together. She was not
afraid of the angry mob, but she found them bothersome and difficult since she could not do anything about them.
Besides, there was Jeremy’s status to think about. The
livelihood of the entire Holden Group might be affected should he receive a hit to his reputation. Corinne definitely

The two of them ran into the nearby alley with the angry mob and the reporters still chasing after them. At the
most critical moment, Jeremy dragged Corinne to hide behind a pile of junk, and the two of them stayed there until
there were no signs of the angry mob or the reporters.
Corinne breathed a sigh of relief. She was panting slightly with the physical exertion.

Jeremy looked down at her and asked, “Why did we have to run away? You shouldn’t run after eating. What if you
get a tummy ache?”
Corinne blinked at him. “Well, are you suggesting we fight them instead of running away?” she asked helplessly.
Jeremy poked her cheeks which were flushed red from all the running she did.
“It’s not as if you’ll be doing all the fighting. In fact, you just have to watch from the sideline.”
Corinne frowned. “Mister, I don’t want you to…”
However, before she finished speaking, she heard someone shouting excitedly, “I found them! They’re over there.”
“Hurry up! Don’t let them get away!”
“Stop! Don’t run!”
Corinne knew they were in deep trouble. “Oh no, they found us! Run, Mister! I’ll take care of them.”
‘What?‘ Jeremy was about to grab her hand, but he stopped and frowned when he heard what she said.
“I’m not running away without you!”
Corinne could not run anymore. It was just as Jeremy said — she should not have run after eating, and she was
feeling a little pain in her stomach.
“No! I’ll stay here and lead them away from you. What are you still standing there for? Run!”
Jeremy’s eyes darkened. He was not happy with Corinne’s plan

even though he understood she meant well.
‘Who does she take me for? Does she really think I’ll leave her alone to face those people?‘ thought Jeremy.
Corinne started pushing Jeremy away, but no matter how hard she pushed, he just would not budge.

lowered the car window. “Sir, this way! Quick. Get in the car with Ma’am!”
Jeremy grabbed Corinne’s hand and the two of them quickly walked to the car. Once they were inside, Tommy
spared no hesitation in flooring the gas pedal and drove them the hell
out of there.
The angry mob ran over, only to see the top–of–the–line
Mercedes–Benz SLR McLaren driving away. This only served to make them angrier than ever.
“The car that the scammer girl got on just now is the limited edition Mercedes–Benz, right?”
“She must’ve used all the money she cheated out of people to buy that car. That boy toy of hers must be in for the
money as well. D*mn it, this world has gone crazy!”
“Yeah, it’s so not fair. That scammer girl is living the high life while we good citizens are stuck living in the rat race.”
“Let’s all post the pictures we have on the Internet to expose them!”
“Yeah! We should dox that boy toy of hers too so that both of them get their punishment. We have the masses on
our side.
Down with the scammers!”
