The Day I Kissed An Older Man

After Annie finished cooking, Aaron helped to bring the food to the table.
It was time to eat, and Sunny called Xante out as he was already hungry.
Annie came out of the kitchen after washing her hands. She saw that Xante and Sunny were sitting side by side, while Aaron sat
opposite them with an empty seat next to him. Aaron looked at her with a smile as if waiting for her to sit down.
The other empty seat was the main seat at the head of the table.
She did not want to sit next to Aaron but could not take the main seat either since she was a guest. Instead of sitting down, she
asked, “Where’s Corinne?”
Xante replied, “She said she wasn’t hungry, so she’ll eat after us.”
Annie frowned. “But the food will be cold! I’ll try and persuade her to come and eat!” She immediately turned and walked towards
Corinne’s room.
After knocking on the door, she walked into the room and saw Corinne leaning on the bedhead. Corinne was busy reading a very
thick book.
“Corinne! It’s time to eat! You can read that after you’re done eating! Let’s eat first!”
Corinne looked up at her. “I’m not feeling hungry yet. You guys can go ahead without me.”
Annie had a stern look. “No! You’re pregnant! You need to eat on time. Even if you don’t care about yourself, you should at least
take better care of your developing baby!”
Corinne was unmoved. “I know my body better than anyone. Nothing will happen to the fetus if I miss a meal. I just want to be
alone now, so please leave me alone.”
For some reason, Annie became a little afraid of Corinne and did not dare to persuade her again. “Okay. I’ll bring some food for
you so you can eat them later.”
Corinne had no appetite whatsoever, but she decided to let Annie do it. After all, nothing she said could persuade Annie against
it.
When Annie turned around begrudgingly, she felt a gust of cold wind and realized that Corinne’s window was still open.

It was getting dark, and the dropping temperatures would make her catch a cold.
Pregnant women should avoid taking medicine on a whim, and it would be bad news if Corinne ended up catching a cold. As
soon as she thought of that, she went over to help close the window before leaving the room.
While she was closing the window, she inadvertently looked downstairs and saw a familiar figure standing by a familiar car!
“Uncle Jeremy! He’s downstairs!” Annie said excitedly after recognizing the man.
Corinne continued to read her book. She only cocked her eyebrows slightly when she heard those words and did not even
bother to look up.
When Corinne did not respond, Annie ran over and grabbed her hand, “Aun—I mean, Corinne! Look! He is downstairs!”
Corinne withdrew her hand insipidly and cocked an eyebrow. “If he’s here, then that means he’s coming to pick you up. It’s
getting late. You should go home!”
Annie frowned. “That’s not why he’s here! He would’ve called me if he was here to pick me up! Why would he just stand there
doing nothing? He’s not an idiot!”
Corinne could not care less, but Annie dragged her off the bed by force and urged her to glance down from the window. She saw
Jeremy smoking while leaning against the front of the car. He raised his head slightly and seemed to be looking upstairs. She
was high up, and her distance from him was sufficiently far that he could not see her facial features. However, his eyes seemed
to be gazing intently at her.
Corinne felt a sense of peace before this, but his gaze made her feel agitated again.
