The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Moon was very well-known in the architecture industry. However, she did not have a single public photo like Jeremy. Everyone
knew her only by her name.
There were rumors that she never revealed herself because she was young and beautiful. Since the reporters would not be able
to photograph Jeremy, they could at least have a scoop if they were able to take a photograph of her!
The reporters waited excitedly for Moon to take the stage, only to be disappointed when she was not the rumored beautiful
young woman they expected. She was a slightly obese woman who wore shabby clothes, a hat, and a mask. None of the
reporters were as keen as they were anymore.
Corinne wore a thick layer of clothes. She straightened her waist and walked onto the stage, trying to look like she was just
obese instead of pregnant. She had been nervous before coming, worried Jeremy would be around. However, Jason managed
to get some inside information that Jeremy might not be attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
She could conduct herself calmly if she did not have to meet that man.
After introducing all the guests, the emcee waited for a while and looked down the platform as if waiting for someone. It was not
until one of the staff ran up to the stage and whispered something in his ear that he proceeded with the next part of the
ceremony. He announced to the eager reporters that they had to proceed without Jeremy as he could not attend the ceremony
due to certain matters.
Although the reporters were disappointed, there was nothing they could do about it except do their job and snap pictures of the
event.
When Corinne heard that the emcee’s announcement was the same as what Jason notified her, she felt reassured and
continued with the remainder of the ceremony with peace of mind.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony was grand. After Corinne finished cutting the ribbon with all the guests, she slipped away under
cover of all the excitement and hid in a corner.
Her job was done, and she only needed to wait for the car that Jason arranged to pick her up. She wanted to use that
opportunity to meet Aaron and Xante, but Xante had sent her a message saying that Jeremy was suspicious of them. For the
sake of their safety, she ultimately decided against it.
Jason’s men were unfortunately stuck in a traffic jam, so they called her and asked her to find a place to rest. That was Corinne’s
intention from the beginning. Being eight months pregnant, she was no longer as nimble as before. Standing for a long time

would make her very tired, and her back would start to hurt as well.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For

She looked at the completed building and felt the urge to look inside. Jeremy was not going to be there anyway, so she could
rest there in the meantime. Once she made her decision, she walked slowly into the building. The general structure was her
design, but the interior decor was designed by someone else. It was simple yet luxurious, and there was a bit of indifference that
was similar to character.
Then again, his true character was not indifferent—it was all just play-pretend.
Since she was already inside the building, she thought of going upstairs to have a look. When she first designed it, she put a lot
of thought into the floor where the president’s office was located.
She had a good impression of him at the time, so she unconsciously spent a lot of thought on designing the vision and layout of
his office. Though the ceremony mentioned the ‘relocating’ of the Holden Group, none of the important departments have
officially moved there as the large-scale move might disrupt the company’s daily operations. No one was in the entire building,
save for the janitors who were cleaning everything to prepare for the big move.
Knowing not many people were around, Corinne boldly pressed the elevator button and went upstairs. The place upstairs was
relatively empty but for a few employees. When they saw her coming over, they asked who she was and what business she had,
to which she replied by showing the temporary access card issued to her by the staff downstairs. She explained that she was the
designer of the building. The employees did not doubt her after seeing her access card and were very polite to her. They even
welcomed her to have a look around.
