The Day I Kissed An Older Man

‘Ugh! He’s so annoying,’ thought Corinne.
She threw her phone aside, laid down beside Joey, and sang him a lullaby to lull Joey to sleep and also to calm herself.
...
The next morning, they had breakfast earlier than usual since Pamela woke up before dawn to supervise the kitchen staff in
breakfast preparation.
After breakfast, Pamela, Corinne, Francine, and Joey got ready to go to Central Park for a stroll and to feed the pigeons. The
bodyguards were about to stop them, but Pamela simply glared at them until they backed down. Later, the bodyguards reported
the situation to their supervisor.
With Pamela in charge, the group was able to drive out of the mansion without a hitch.
In the car, Pamela patted Corinne’s hand gently. “Corinne, I’ve asked the servants to bring along some sandwiches and other
food. You and Joey can eat in the car if you’re hungry later.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All

Corinne smiled. “Thanks, Grandma. You didn’t need to do that since we could just eat in the restaurant.”
Pamela shook her head. “No, that simply won’t do! You’re pregnant, so it’s best not to eat outside food. Who knows whether the
ingredients they use are fresh or not? Also, most of their food is just hyped up by influencers, so it’s best to eat food from home.”
Francine, who was carrying Joey in her lap, laughed out loud. “Hahaha! Grandma, I didn’t know you knew what hype up and
influencers mean.”
Pamela scoffed. “Of course I know! Even a boomer like me knows how to use the Internet.”
Corinne laughed too, but her laugh sounded hollow.
30 minutes later, the car stopped at Central Park. Since it was early in the morning, there were not many people except for a few
joggers. However, there were plenty of pigeons.
Corinne took the chance to secretly look around while Pamela was occupied with counting the pigeons with Joey. Just as she
expected, the bodyguards followed them there. Some of them were keeping watch in their cars, which were parked some
distance away from them, while others pretended to be joggers.

After thinking about it, Corinne said, “Grandma, wait here while I go buy some bread for the pigeon with Joey and Francine.”
Pamela nodded. “Alright. Be careful. Francine, take care of Corinne, okay?”
“Yes, Grandma. You know this must be the hundred times you told me that today, right?” said Francine,
Pamela rolled her eyes at her. “Well, I wouldn’t have to do that if you weren’t so forgetful. Now, shoo! Go with Corinne to buy
some bread.”
Francine, who was carrying Joey, followed Corinne to a little food cart that sold pastries and bread. One bread roll cost two
dollars, and a dozen for 10 dollars.
Corinne asked for a dozen bread rolls and was about to pay with her digital wallet when someone suddenly snatched her phone
away and ran off.
The thief cut through the ground when a flock of pigeons was milling about, causing them to fly up into the air, and disturbing the
people around them.
“Thief! Thief! That thief has stolen my phone!” shouted Corinne in a panic.
The bodyguards immediately rushed over to her. “Ma’am. Are you alright?”
“Quick! Get me my phone back!” she ordered anxiously. “That phone has private information about Jeremy. You must get it
back!”
