The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Jeremy scoffed again. “We’ve already ordered for ourselves. You two can order something else if you want.”
“Oh, you’ve ordered? That’s great,” said Marcus with a sincere smile. “I’ll just order a few of Annie’s favorite dishes, then.”
Annie fell into deep thought, which made her look like she was in a trance while Marcus called over the waiter to order a few
more dishes.
‘Uncle Jeremy and Corinne stopped talking after Marcus and I came,’ thought Annie. Jeremy’s tense expression was as though
someone owed him a lot of money. Meanwhile, Corinne was looking out of the restaurant’s window absent-mindedly.
‘No, this won’t do! They’re going to break up at this rate! A man should be the first to apologize for this kind of problem to be
solved.’
Annie did no doubt Jeremy’s holier-than-thou attitude would push Corinne further away.
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in her mind. ‘If I can’t persuade Uncle Jeremy, someone else can!’
She quickly texted Francine to tell her Corinne had come back.

Meanwhile, at the Holdens’ mansion.
Francine did not have class in the afternoon. She just took a shower after getting back from school when she saw Annie’s text,
stating Corinne had returned. Annie even sent her a photo, which she had taken secretly, of Corinne and Jeremy sitting across
each other. They were both clearly displeased.
Francine nearly jumped up in excitement.
[Where are you guys now? Where did Jeremy find Corinne?] she texted Annie back.
[We’re at XXX restaurant. Corinne returned on her own accord and just happened to bump into Uncle Jeremy.]
[Then is Jeremy going to bring her back later? I’ve gotta tell Grandma this news!]
[I don’t think that’s going to happen. They’re talking about ending things. Corinne looks really depressed, and it’s obvious she
doesn’t want to talk to Uncle Jeremy.]

Francine frowned. [What? They’re going to end things? How? She’s carrying my brother’s baby, and if I remember correctly, the
baby’s due next month, right? They should be waiting happily for their bundle of joy right now, so why are they fighting?]
Annie sent her a sighing emoji. [Don’t ask me—I don’t know the answers. It’s not like I want to see them breaking up, too. That’s
why I’m texting you now. I hope you can bring your grandmother to the restaurant. Only she can force Uncle Jeremy to apologize
to Corinne first.]
Francine immediately jumped to Jeremy’s defense. [Why should he apologize first? He didn’t do anything wrong. Corinne was
the one who disappeared without so much as a goodbye! She should apologize to Jeremy first.]
Annie was speechless. [Francine, you sound like you don’t want them back together at all.]
As much as she was angry about the whole thing, Francine wanted Corinne to come home. [Fine. Send me the location of the
restaurant. I’ll bring Grandma over as soon as possible.]
Annie did exactly as she asked.
