Ch. 711..720

The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 711-“This little rascal is definitely trying to make fun of me,’ thought Jeremy while looking at Corinne’s impish face. He narrowed his eyes and slowly got closer to her. “Well, haven’t you already got my work of art on you?” he asked while lightly tickling her tummy. The warmth of his hand immediately seeped through her clothes and into her skin, causing her to blush.

Corinne instinctively pushed his hand away. “Mister, behave yourself! We’re in a car for Chris’ sake.” Jeremy finally smiled when he saw how embarrassed Corinne was. He kissed her lightly on the lips before looking deeply into her eyes and said, “I forbid you

from caring about our age gap and running away with another young man in the future.” Corinne was slightly surprised by his words but then she smirked and said, “Well, that depends on how happy you can make me. Otherwise, I can’t promise I won’t pull the plug on you when you’re lying on your deathbed and run off with another man.” Jeremy did a double-take. ‘Why this little rascal!’ However, Jeremy found it hard to get angry at her since she did imply she wanted to spend the rest of her life with him. He pretended to be angry as he pinched her cheek. “How dare you!” Corinne rolled her eyes at him. “Of course I dare! I can go ask Mister Cedric to set me up with Eddy now if you don’t believe me!” She then pushed him away and pretended to get out of the car.

“Come back!” ordered Jeremy with a frown on his face. He pulled her back into the car.

Corinne did not put up a struggle. Instead, she turned around and kissed him straight on the lips. This was her first time kissing him first so she was not sure how to go about it; her kiss was tentative and probing at the same time.

The sudden kiss shocked Jeremy. His pupils immediately shrank to pinpoint size and his body immediately stiffened up before he grabbed the back of her head so that he could ease himself into it. The kissee became the kisser in the end as Jeremy showed him how it was done.

Corinne was the first to pull away from the kiss. She felt her face go numb and she was actually panting from the lack of oxygen. Still blushing, she looked at him and said, “Don’t worry, Mister. I won’t go on a blind date with anyone nor will I run off with another man.” Jeremy threw her a lustful smile as he brushed her face with his slender fingers.

“You’re mine and even if you try, you can never escape from me. Not in this life or the other!” he said in a tone that was both gentle and dangerous.

Corinne saw the deadly possessive look in Jeremy’s eyes and unlike the previous times, she was not as afraid of it as she was now. In fact, she found it gave her a sense of security and warmth. After that, the car started and they made their way back to the Holden’s estate. However, unbeknownst to them, they were being followed by the mysterious van again.

After sending his grandfather back to his room to rest, Lucas went to one of the two special rooms upstairs alone. In this special room, there was a beautiful pink bed, an exquisite dressing table, and plushies of various sizes. This was the childhood room of Luna, his long- lost sister.

The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 712-There were two special rooms upstairs in the Riveras’ mansion. One was the room where Emily used to sleep in with Maxwell, and the other was the room where Luna used to sleep in. These two rooms had remained the same as they were 15 years ago and no one was allowed to step inside the two rooms without Lucas’ permission.

Lucas closed the door, pulled out the chair from under the dressing table, and sat down on it. The little chair was too small for a man who was over six feet tall.

Still, it contained precious childhood memories in it.

There was a ten-year age gap between him and Luna. When he was young, he spent more time with Luna than his parents did with her. Every night, he would be the one to read stories to lull her to sleep. It was such a peaceful family life back then.

Later, Maxwell was caught having a secret family outside of the marriage, causing Emily to fall into deep anguish. The two of them fought more and more with each fight getting more and more violent. Every time they fought, Lucas would carry Luna back to her room and read stories to distract her from the fight so that she would not be frightened by what was happening outside the rooms.

Things seemed to get worse after that as the rumors of Luna not being Maxwell’s daughter started to spread. One day, while Lucas was in school, in a bid to dispel the rumors going around outside, his grandparents took Maxwell and Luna to do a paternity test.

Emily saw that as an insult to her and to Luna too so she refused to let her go.

That event was the straw that broke the camel’s back and the trust between Maxwell and Emily completely crumbled into dust. After that one last violent fight, Emily left the Riveras with Luna and the two of them were never seen again.

A year later, Maxwell took another wife who had a daughter that was the same age as Luna and that little girl was none other than Lucas’ beloved stepsister – Anya Rivera. Even though Lucas was still a kid who had no say in the things that went on in the family, he stubbornly refused to let Phoebe and Anya stay in the room where Emily and Luna used to stay.

Maxwell, to his credit, respected Lucas’ wish and thus, he moved to another room with Phoebe. In the beginning, Lucas did not accept Anya as his stepsister and even though they lived under the same roof, he would pretend both Phoebe and Emily did not exist.

After some time, he noticed Anya bore many similarities with Luna. Her movement, expression, words, and even the cherry-red mole between her brows reminded him of Luna. It did not help that Luna loved to follow him wherever he went and no matter how coldly he treated her, she would still look at him as if he was the best thing in the world.

Slowly, he came to accept Anya and in the end, he poured all of the affection he reserved for Luna on Anya. He made sure Anya never had to suffer any sadness or hurt but now he came to realize Cedric was right – Anya had been spoiled rotten by Lucas!

‘Anya seemed to have gone to the point of no return in her quest to make Jeremy hers. She’s no longer the kind-hearted girl I used to know. In fact, the scheme she pulled had become more and more vicious… I can’t believe she would hurt Joey like that just so she could frame Corinne. She’s become so evil that I don’t think there’s ever a chance of her redeeming herself anymore,’ thought Lucas.

The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 713-Knock! Knock!

A knock was suddenly heard outside the door.

“Mister Lucas, it’s me,” said Edmund.

Lucas snapped out of his trance and said, “Come in.” Only then did Edmund dare to enter Luna’s room.

The tired-looking Lucas pinched the space between his eyebrows. “How’s Joey doing?”

“The doctor said Mister Joey’s head injury is quite serious as there were signs of him experiencing a mild concussion. After stitching up his head and giving him some medicine, the doctor advised us to bring Mister Joey home to recuperate since he didn’t seem to be too happy to be staying in the hospital. It’s best if Mister Joey can stay in a place where he’s most familiar while he’s healing. The only precaution we need to take note of is to make sure no water comes in contact with his wound and to bring him back to the hospital every day for the nurse to change his bandage.” Lucas narrowed his eyes. ‘That poor kid. He has been injured so many times, with each time more serious than the previous, ever since he was adopted by this family.’ “Did the doctor say what was the thing that caused the injury?” “He said it doesn’t look like Mister Joey was cut by a weapon and that his injury was most likely caused by him bumping his head into a table with sharp corners.” Lucas knitted his brows together. He had just received confirmation about his suspicion and yet he could not help but feel disappointed. ‘So it turns out Anya was lying and Corinne wasn’t the one who hurt Joey after all.’ At the same time, he was feeling a little relieved because there was a slim chance Anya was not the one who hurt Joey either. The little kid could have accidentally bumped into a table and Anya decided to use this to frame Corinne.

While it was still very evil of Anya to do that, it was not as evil as hurting her own child. “There might be hope to make her see the wrongs in her way after,’ thought Lucas. He proceeded to make a mental note to himself to keep a close eye on Anya and to teach her how to be a decent human being to prevent the same thing from happening again.

At that moment, Edmund said, “Mister Lucas, I’ve arranged for Mister Joey to stay with the nanny in her room since he seemed very frightened to be in Miss Anya’s room.” Lucas frowned again. This makes Anya even more suspicious. Joey has been resisting Anya ever since he woke up…. Could it really be Anya who hurt him?’ Thinking about all this made Lucas’ head hurt. “Okay, thanks for that. That’ll be all. You may leave now.” However, Edmund stayed where he was. He still had something to report to Lucas. “Mister Lucas, we’ve already found the pocket watch you lost in Kanton City.” The pocket watch was given to him as a birthday present by Luna 15 years ago.

On the watch face, she had personally written the date of his birth and a picture of him, though it looked nothing like him since she was still a child who was still learning to draw.

Nonetheless, he treasured the pocket watch very much and kept it on him all the time since it was one of the few things she had given him. However, he discovered the pocket watch was gone after he came back from Kanton City.

Lucas looked up and asked, “Where did you find it?” A weird expression flashed across Edmund’s face before he answered, “We found it in the blood collection room in the hospital where you donated your blood. A nurse saw it and picked it up. You must have dropped it when you were taking off your suit jacket.” Lucas nodded. He did not think too much of it; he was just glad the pocket watch was found. However, Edmund did not look relieved at all. “Mister Lucas, I found something odd in the surveillance footage when we were looking through it to find your pocket watch.” Lucas raised his brow and asked, “What is it?” “After you donated your blood, the two nurses on duty secretly stole some of your blood from the sample but fear not, we’re looking into the matter as we speak.”

The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 714-Lucas’ expression instantly turned sharp and serious. “The nurses stole my blood sample?” Edmund nodded. “Yes. I think this is a really serious matter so I’ve already arranged for our men to escort those two nurses back to New Capital City.” Lucas stood up and straightened up his suit. “Where are they now?” “They’re kept under watch in the basement.” “Bring me there now!” “Yes, Mister Lucas!”

In the basement.

Although it was called the “basement”, it was nonetheless very richly decorated with all the furniture one would need to live comfortably. The only drawback was it was too cold down there so the Riveras rarely went down there.

At that moment, the two nurses were locked up in one of the rooms. They were shivering, crying, and hugging each other since no one bothered to explain to them what was going on. One of them was on the verge of having a breakdown when suddenly she plucked up the courage to kneel in front of the two bodyguards watching over them.

“Please, Sir. I’m just a poor girl who came from a poor family. There’s no money to be gained. from kidnapping me so please let me go. I swear I won’t report this to the police if you just let. me go,” she pleaded.

The other nurse also knelt down in front of the bodyguards and said, “I also come from a poor family. In fact, my father had to borrow money from our relatives to pay for my school fees and till now, we haven’t even cleared the debt. So you see, Sir… there’s really no use in kidnapping us two… Won’t you please find it in your heart to let us go?” The bodyguards were trained to remain unmoved by any sort of begging. In fact, they did not even spare them a glance, no matter how they cried and pleaded.

Suddenly, sounds of footsteps could be heard coming from outside the door and not long after, the door swung open.

Edmund proceeded to enter and flicked his chin at the bodyguards to signal them to leave the room. The bodyguards immediately nodded and backed out of the room respectfully. The two nurses thought Edmund was the mastermind behind the kidnapping and they immediately backed away in fear, wrapped their trembling arms around each other, and looked at Edmund.

Ignoring them, Edmund pulled a chair to the middle of the room before going out to ask Lucas to come in. Lucas walked in slowly and threw a cold, sharp glance at both of the nurses, which was enough to send them crying and shaking again.

The two nurses immediately recognized Lucas. How could they not when he was the most handsome man she had ever come across in her life? They began to whisper amongst themselves.

“It’s him! The handsome man who came to donate his blood at the hospital that day.” “So he’s the mastermind behind our kidnapping? Why would he do such a thing like this?” “Do you think he brought us here to be his sx slaves?” “What the hll? Is that all you could think about at a time like this? Aren’t you afraid that we might end up dead at all?” “Well, what else could it be? I mean… I don’t remember ever crossing him.” Lucas sat down gracefully on the chair and accepted the coffee Edmund passed him. He took a sip before saying, “What are the two of you talking about? Why don’t you speak up so that I can join in the conversation?” The nurses found Lucas to be less intimidating than Edmund so they decided to say what was on their mind. “Mister Lucas, we remember you. You came to our hospital to donate your blood not long ago so it should be safe to think that you’re a good person who wouldn’t hurt the innocent, right?”

The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 715-The nurse on the right kept nodding her head. “Yes! I can tell you’re a good person, Mister Lucas!” Lucas smiled emotionlessly. “Whether I’m a good person depends on how you answer what I’m going to ask you later.” The nurses exchanged confused glances with each other. They had no idea what Lucas was getting at. However, they told themselves they would do whatever Lucas asked of them as long as he promised to let them go.

“Mister Lucas, we’ll do anything you ask. Please, we’ll tell you anything you want to know and we promise to not hold anything back.”

“Yes, we’ll tell you anything you want to know.” Lucas took another sip of his coffee before saying, “I heard the two of you stole a little of my blood sample. Is that true?” The two nurses immediately tensed up when they heard the question. It never crossed their mind they would be brought in for that matter! They knew what they did was illegal and against the Hippocratic oath of do no harm so they made sure to not leave any trace of their crime so how was it possible that Lucas knew about it?

Their silence was as good as admitting their sins. Frowning, Lucas asked them a couple more questions, “What were you planning to do with my blood? Were you going to use them for illegal gene editing or to sell my organs?” The two nurses immediately waved their hands and said, “No, this is all a misunderstanding, Mister Lucas. Us lowly nurses have no such skill or connection to do those things you speak of.

“She’s right. Besides, we will never dare to do something like that.” Lucas raised his eyebrow as he bore them down with his cold, cold eyes. “Then why did you. steal my blood sample?” “We…” said the nurse on the left hesitantly.

“Umm…” said the nurse on the right tentatively.

“The two of you better tell the truth. You can kiss your family goodbye if I find out any of you lied to Mister Lucas!” threatened Edmund.

The two nurses had just joined the workforce after graduation. Being young, they did not need Edmund to tell them twice before quickly coming out with the truth.

“Sorry, Mister Lucas, but we let our curiosity get the best of us. We took some of blood your sample because we wanted to do a DNA test on you and another person. I swear we weren’t going to do anything bad with your blood sample,” said the nurse on the left.

The nurse on the right kept nodding her head and said, “It’s true! We just wanted to do a DNA test. We didn’t know it was wrong for us to do this and we’re really sorry about this! Please forgive us.” Lucas was shocked to say the least. Their confession sounded so ridiculous that he could not

The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 716-“How could the two of you violate the confidentiality of your patient of which you swore to uphold as nurses? Does the Hippocratic oath mean nothing to you?

You two should be ashamed to call yourself nurses!” said Lucas harshly.

His words caused the two nurses to drop their heads in shame.

“Mister Lucas, we know what we did was wrong… but we hope you can find it in your heart to keep this to yourself ’cause we’re both just interns… If words get out, it’ll damage the hospital’s reputation and countless innocent, hardworking, professional medical staff would suffer because of us. I know I’m unworthy for this profession so I promise I will resign from the hospital when I get back.”

When the first nurse had finished speaking, Lucas raised his brow and looked at the other nurse indifferently. “She said she would resign from the hospital. What about you?” The other nurse dropped her head remorsefully and said, “Mister Lucas, I was already going to resign from the hospital since I lost the bet. You have my word that I would never work as a nurse again after leaving the hospital.” Lucas’ heart had been hardened by years of battle in the world of business so he was unmoved by the nurses’ tears. The one belief he had held on through the years was that a grown person should always face the consequences of their mistakes.

‘What they did was absolutely preposterous! How could they take my blood to do a DNA test without my consent just to satisfy their curiosity? I need to make sure they’ll never sully the good name of a nurse again!” Lucas turned to Edmund and said, “Arrange for someone to interrogate the two of them again. Check if their recent activities match up with what they said and find out if there’s any other suspicious thing happening in the hospital. Once that’s all done, you can hand them over to the hospital in Kanton City and leave the hospital dean to punish them as he sees fit. Letting them resign is too light a punishment for what they did.” Lucas wanted the two nurses to receive their just punishment and be fired from the hospital so that they would have a record of what they did. This would ensure they could never find another medical job as long as they lived. He was sure only then would the two nurses learn. their lessons.

“Yes, Mister Lucas!” said Edmund.

Lucas put down his coffee and got up from the chair. He did not want to waste any more time on this matter. However, a sudden thought occurred to him when his hand landed on the doorknob.

He immediately snapped his head back and stared fixedly at the two nurses.

“Who did you say lost the bet just now?” “It was me, Mister Lucas,” said the nurse who lost.

Lucas’ eyes started to waver. “And what did you say my relationship with Miss Corinne was?” “I said you and Miss Corinne were a couple while she said you and Miss Corinne were brother and sister. The DNA test came out with a conclusive result showing the two of you to be brother and sister so I lost the best. Mister Lucas, I’m really sorry for thinking you were one of those deadbeat sc*mbags who would abandon their unborn baby at the first sign of trouble when in actual fact you’re a caring brother who wanted only the best for his sister…” The nurse was so focused on apologizing and explaining herself that she did not notice Lucas’ eyes had turned blood red with anger. He quickly walked up to her and pulled her up roughly by the collar.

“Tell me one more time! What did the DNA test say is the relationship between me and Miss Corinne?” The nurse was shocked by his anger. She did not know what she had said wrong to incur his wrath. “It says… you and Miss Corinne… are brother and sister.” “Where’s the DNA report?” roared Lucas with a darkened face.

The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 717-“We destroyed the DNA report as soon as we had read it… because we didn’t want to leave any trace of our crime. Mister Lucas… are you okay?” asked the nurse fearfully.

Lucas’ face was stiff with rage. “Let me ask you one more time. Are you sure the DNA test says Corinne and I are brother and sister?” “Yes. A hundred percent sure because losing the bet means I have to resign from the hospital so I made sure to read and reread the result and it says on the report as clear as day that you and Miss Corinne are indeed brother and sister.”

Lucas fell into a shocked silence when he heard that. After a long while, he let go of the nurse who immediately broke into tears after that. Lucas’ hands were trembling non stop as he was still reeling from the shock of the news.

All this while, he thought the reason he could not bear to hurt Corinne was because she had saved Cedric from getting beaten up by the influencer before.

That was why he continued to show her mercy again and again.

Edmund, too, was shocked by the news since the one woman Lucas hated with all his guts turned out to be his long-lost sister who he had been searching for the past 15 years. He walked up to Lucas and asked cautiously, “Mister Lucas, are you okay?” Lucas clutched his chest to stop the terrible feeling that was spreading inside of him. After taking a deep breath, he ordered, “Get me some conclusive evidence as fast as you can!” “Yes, Mister Lucas. Leave this to me,” said Edmund with a nod.

Lucas pulled open the door and stumbled out of the room in a daze. Seeing this, the two nurses immediately got down on their knees to beg for mercy since they had no idea what would become of them.

“Mister Lucas, please forgive us! We know what we did was wrong but can you please let us go?

“Mister Lucas, please let us go! We promise we’ll never do something like this again.” However, Lucas never once looked back at them no matter how they pleaded. A while later, the two bodyguards came back to keep watch over them.

The next day at four in the morning. Edmund rushed back to the Riveras’ mansion and knocked on the door of Lucas’ study.

“Come in,” came Lucas’ tired voice from inside the study. The light in the room had been on the entire night. In other words, he had not slept a wink at all.

Edmund pushed open the door and solemnly presented Lucas with a DNA report. “Mister Lucas, we collected some of Miss Corinne’s hair from the office she used to occupy and arranged for the DNA report to come out as soon as possible. According to the report in your hand, Miss Corinne’s DNA perfectly matches those of Miss Luna.” Lucas’ bloodshot pupils immediately shrank to pinpoint size. At that moment, the DNA report only confirmed what the two nurses said so he was not shocked or surprised anymore. He had been sitting inside the study the whole night, recalling every instance where he treated Corinne awfully in the past.

The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 718-‘All these years I’ve been searching for Luna and she happened to be right under my nose. Oh, how god loves to play around with my life,’ thought Lucas.

“That means I, her own brother, had not only wronged her again and again but teamed up with others to hurt her, bully her, pour coffee over her, and even forced her to get rid of the baby inside her belly!” moaned Lucas regretfully.

Edmund just stood there. He was at a complete loss at what to do. “Umm… Mister Lucas, you shouldn’t be so hard on yourself since you had no idea Miss Corinne was actually Miss Luna…” ‘I’m so glad I finally found her but I won’t blame her if she doesn’t accept me as her brother… not after all the things I did

to her,’ thought Lucas. He rested his forehead in his palm and took a deep breath. “Where is Corinne now?” “She went back with Jeremy and they should be sleeping right now.” Lucas nodded blankly. “I want to see her tomorrow. Make it happen.” “Yes, Mister Lucas.” Lucas looked up at him and said worriedly, “Don’t force her to meet with me if she doesn’t want to. Make sure you only treat her with the utmost respect.” Edmund nodded. “Don’t worry, Mister Lucas. I know what to do.” Lucas pinched the space between his brow before waving tiredly as a way of telling him he could leave the study which was exactly what Edmund did.

The next morning, the first thing Corinne saw when she opened her eyes were Jeremy’s eyes staring back at her. She was used to sleeping alone since young so seeing a man beside her caused her to jump up in fright and to instinctively back away.

“What’s wrong? Did I scare you?” asked Jeremy with a frown when he saw how she reacted. It was only then Corinne remembered she had moved back to Jeremy’s place and their relationship had progressed by leaps and bounds.

Even though they had done the deed last night, she still could not help but blush at the sight of him. “Ahem. What time is it now? Don’t you have to go to work?” Jeremy narrowed his eyes. “How can I go to work when someone is sleeping on top of me?” Corinne frowned in confusion. She then looked down and discovered the pillow she thought she was sleeping on was actually Jeremy’s arm! She chuckled wryly and said, “You could’ve pulled out your arm while I was sleeping. It’s not like my head is made of stone, making it impossible for you to move your arm.” ‘Why, this little rascal never misses a chance to tease me huh!’ Jeremy pretended to be angry as he pinched her cheeks. “Why can’t you take my gesture as me wanting to be nice to you? I wanted to let you sleep a bit longer since you looked so tired after what we did last night. I didn’t dare to move my arm ’cause what if doing so woke you up?” His words brought back the memory of what they did last night, which immediately made Corinne blushed even more. She sat straight up and said, “Okay, you can take away your arm now that I’m wide awake.” Jeremy sat up too and stretched his arms to warm them up. “Oh, so you’re the use-me-and- lose-me kind of girl eh? But I seem to recall how tightly you were gripping me with your legs. last night…” Corinne’s face immediately turned as red as a tomato with embarrassment and she could not help but cut in, “Stop right there, Mister!

The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 719-Jeremy roared with laughter. He had won this round. He reached out his hand and booped her on the nose. “Alright, alright. I’ll stop here, I need to go to work anyway so that we’ll have enough money to raise the baby.” Corinne rolled her eyes at him. “That’s more like it.” Jeremy tousled her messy hair before throwing off the blanket. He then went to the closet to get his clothes. “You should get out of bed to have your breakfast and for lunch you’ll only need to let Bowen know what you wish to eat and he will ask the kitchen to make it for you. As for dinner, wait for me to come back so that we can have it together.”

The bed immediately became more spacious after Jeremy got out of it. Corinne laid back down and stretched her whole body out like a lazy cat as she absentmindedly said, “Okay, I got it.” Jeremy kept nagging her to be mindful of what she put into her mouth since she was not only feeding herself but the baby too.

He’s certainly different from when I first met him. I still remember how cold and quiet he was then and now that I get to know him better, he’s actually quite the nagger! Ugh, he has been nagging me ever since I woke up,’ thought Corinne.

Only when Jeremy went to wash up in the bathroom did Corinne get to enjoy some peace and quiet. She curled herself inside the blanket in a bid to make herself fall asleep. Jeremy came out of the bathroom after he was done changing into his work clothes and what should he see but Corinne dozing off in bed.

He frowned and walked up to her, Corinne was about to fall asleep when she felt her chin being lifted up by a rough hand and the next thing she knew, her lips were smothered by Jeremy’s lips. Her eyes widened in surprise. She quickly pushed him away and wiped the kiss away from her lips. “Mister, I haven’t brushed my teeth yet!” “It’s okay. I don’t mind,” said Jeremy with a flirtatious glint in his eyes. He then proceeded to smother her lips with his own again. He loved how tight Corinne kept her lips close because then he could slowly probe them open with his tongue until they gradually gave way to allow him inside her mouth.

In fact, it did not take long before Corinne gave up the fight and let him do whatever he wanted with her. That was just how good of a kisser Jeremy was.

Only when her breathing became erratic did Jeremy let go of her. He looked at her as he was drunk and asked, “Do you want to follow me to work?” Corinne was slightly hyperventilating then. She quickly shook her head and said, “No. It’s so boring there. I would rather sleep at home.” Oh, how Jeremy wished he could carry Corinne around in his pocket. That way he would be able to be with her 24/7 but alas, that was not possible. Not wishing to tire her out, he simply gave her a peck on the forehead and said, “Okay, then just stay home and sleep all you want. Make sure you don’t run off anywhere while I’m working, you hear?” “Does that mean I can’t even take a stroll outside? No! You have no right to keep me locked up In this house,” said Corinne with a frown.

Jeremy kissed her on the corner of her lips before saying, “Of course you can take a stroll outside but make sure you keep me updated on your whereabouts so I can find you anytime I 2/2 want.” Corinne rolled her eyes at him. “Okay fine. I won’t simply run off so just go to work already. By the way, you really need to work on this clingy attitude of yours… ’cause I don’t know how long I can take it.” Jeremy frowned and shoved his hand inside of the blanket to tickle her. “Well, you have no choice but to live with it since you were the one who seduced me into marrying you.” “Hahaha! Stop tickling me!” cried Corinne as she curled herself up into a ball. Jeremy pulled out his hand and said, “Be a good girl, okay? I’m going off to work now. Remember to have your breakfast after you wake up.” Corinne pulled the blanket up to cover her mouth and nose, leaving only her bright eyes visible, as though she was afraid she would be attacked by Jeremy’s kisses again. She then snaked out one of her hands from under the blanket and waved him goodbye. “Bye bye. Have a nice day.” “Oh my god. She’s just too adorable!’ thought Jeremy. His Adam’s apple bobbed up and down as he tried to control the lust burning throughout his body. Afraid that he would ravage Corinne if he stayed a second longer, he quickly turned around, grabbed his suit jacket from the chair, and left the room.

The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 720-After coming out of the bedroom, Jeremy checked the time on his watch. “Let her sleep for now. You have my permission to wake her up at ten so that she could have her breakfast,” said Jeremy to Bowen, who was standing not far away in anticipation of his orders.

Bowen bowed and nodded deferentially. “Yes, Mister Jeremy. You can rest assured Ma’am would be well taken care of.” “Good.” Jeremy then strode toward the staircase but he stopped when he came to the first flight down. He turned his head around and added, “Make sure she doesn’t eat too much junk food or cold drinks.”

Bowen had never seen this side of Jeremy so he was understandably shocked.

After a while, he finally said, “Okay, I’ll make sure of that.” Jeremy found himself to be missing Corinne even before he left the house. He had never missed someone so much in his life. ‘So this is how it feels to love someone so much that can’t even bear to be a second apart from her…’ you Corinne’s sudden disappearance previously had left an indelible scar in his heart. He was so traumatized by what happened that it had become a sort of neurosis for him. He looked at the closed bedroom for a while as though worried about the same thing happening before finally going down the stairs.

After Jeremy left, Francine came out of the corner unhappily. She had heard everything he said to Bowen. ‘Bowen, do this for Corinne. Bowen, do that for Corinne. Pah! He’s going to spoil her rotten.’ Francine did not understand why Jeremy cared about Corinne so much. How could Corinne, a country hick, ever compete with Anya, a socialite? Francine had been against Corinne from the get go. She wished Jeremy would marry Anya instead of Corinne. Therefore, she thought it was a good time to get rid of Corinne now that Jeremy was out of the house.

With this thought in mind, she walked brazenly up to Jeremy’s bedroom and was about to knock on the door when Bowen stopped her just in time. “Miss Francine, your brother has left a clear order to let Ma’am sleep until ten. You can find her then should you have something to discuss with her.” “She’s not the missus of the household! Who the h*ll does she think she is?

Why do I need to wait for her to wake up? It’s really unbecoming for a married woman to behave like this. Let me teach her how the women of the Holden family should conduct herself!” shouted Francine angrily, who deliberately raised her voice so that Corinne could hear.

“Please don’t be like this, Miss Francine. Mister Jeremy will be very angry if he found out about this and then you’ll be the one who’ll suffer,” said Bowen helplessly.

Francine was not going to take his advice. She lifted her chin proudly and said, “No. My brother will never take her side over mine ’cause at the end of the day, she’s just an outsider. So kindly get out of my way, Bowen.” Francine pushed Bowen to the and proceeded to bang loudly on the bedroom door. “I’m coming in, Corinne!” Without waiting for Corinne’s permission, Francine then barged inside the bedroom.

Bowen could not stop her this time and considering the fact Corinne was still sleeping, he thought it would be inappropriate for him to go in. He quickly summoned several maids and ordered them to drag Francine out of Corinne’s bedroom but to their horror, they discovered Francine had locked the door.

‘What the h*ll is Miss Francine doing in there?’ Bowen quickly went to look for the spare key.

When Francine entered the bedroom, she saw Corinne was wide awake and scrolling through her phone on the bed. Corinne’s lazy demeanor infuriated Francine. The thought of Corinne being all comfortable while she herself was locked up in the detention center for half a month sent her into a raging frenzy.
