The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Corinne walked around Pamela to exit the restaurant.
“Corinne...” Pamela tried to stop her again, obviously worried about her.
“Let her go,” said Jeremy emotionlessly.
Stunned, Pamela turned to look at Jeremy with a frown.
Corinne paused for a second before walking out of the restaurant without turning back.
Francine quickly chased after her. “Corinne! Wait!”
Corinne could not walk fast since she was eight months pregnant, so even though she did not stop, Francine managed to easily
catch up to her.
Francine stood in front of her with her arms spread. “Corinne, how can you talk to Grandma like that?” she asked angrily. “Do
you have any idea how worried she was about you?”
Corinne smiled. “Was she worried about me or the baby?”
Francine frowned. “Both, of course!”
Corinne chuckled softly. “Oh, please! Do you think I was just born yesterday? Why don’t you go back to Miss Pamela?”
She then walked around Francine, wanting to leave as fast as possible.
“No! Corinne, don’t go!” Francine walked with her. She was not going to give up easily, but no matter what she said, Corinne
remained unmoved. In the end, she grabbed her elbow and said, “Please stay! You’re my sister-in-law!”
Corinne stopped walking. Annoyed, she looked at Francine coldly. “You’re wrong. Your real sister-in-law is in the restaurant with
your brother.”
Francine was taken aback.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates...
“Do you mean Sophia? I’m never going to accept her as my sister-in-law. Corinne, there must be some misunderstanding.
Nothing is going on between Sophia and Jeremy!”

Corinne pulled back her elbow. “Nothing is going on, you say? How can you say that when the two of them are legally married to
each other?”
This was the first time Francine learned of the news. “What?! When did that happen? How... How come I’ve never heard of it?”
she sputtered.
Corinne did not even bother to analyze whether Francine was putting up an act. “Why don’t you go ask them?”
Francine stood still, worried that Corinne would escape if she went back to the restaurant.
“Corinne, I don’t even know they’re married!” she shouted. “Even if you don’t care about Jeremy anymore, you should still care
about Joey! That kid has been shutting himself up in his room ever since you left! He wouldn’t talk to Jeremy, me, or anyone
else! Do you have the heart to abandon him like that?”
‘Oh, Joey. That poor kid...’ thought Corinne. She really pitied and liked him.
However, as much as she was worried about him, she could not let herself be dragged back to the Holdens’ mansion because of
him.
After a minute of silence, Corinne calmly said, “It sounds like he’s experiencing some psychological problems, but I’m not a
psychologist, so I can’t help him. You should get him to see a psychologist as soon as possible.”
