The Day I Kissed An Older Man

“But if I have you, a Holden, on my side, it adds an extra layer of guarantee that I won’t be cast away like trash by Jeremy’s
grandparents. We can work together toward a win-win solution and help each other get the life we want. What do you say?”
suggested Corinne.
The silver-haired man gazed at Corinne for a while before pushing her away in disgust. “What makes you think I’ll be willing to
accept a woman Jeremy has used?”
Instead of being humiliated or angry, Corinne simply laughed. “The same can be said about Holden Group. He dipped his finger
all over it, yet you don’t seem to mind at all. You should know I have my own merits for being able to snag someone like Jeremy!”
The silver-haired man seemed to be getting convinced. It was just as Corinne deduced—he did not know anything about running
a company and had no friends to help him. It would be promising if someone like Corinne could guide him.
‘Hm, I like her straightforward attitude. It won’t be too late to get rid of her after I finish using her.’
With that thought in mind, the silver-haired smiled sinisterly and said, “Okay, I’ll let you live for the moment. But make no mistake,
I’ll kill you if I even get the hint of feeling you’re playing me.”
Corinne smiled. “Great. Now that we’ve decided to work together, can you please untie me?”
A look of caution flashed across the silver-haired man’s eyes. “Why should I do that and why are you in such a rush? I’ll untie
you after you’ve delivered the baby.”
Corinne raised an eyebrow. “I just need you to untie my hands and get me some pen and paper. I’ll draw you a picture so I can
explain how the internal power structure of Holden Group works. That way, we can come up with a plan on how to take down the
company in the future.”
The silver-haired man looked at her skeptically.
Corinne smiled at him. “What’s the matter? Do you think I’m going to try to run away? Come on, I’m heavily pregnant, and my
legs will still be tied up. I can’t run even if you untie my hands. You’re seriously overestimating me and seriously underestimating
you and your friends.”
Her words seemed to have an effect on the silver-haired man. He looked at Corinne’s pregnant belly with a frown and believed
she could not run in such a condition.

“Give me your hands,” he barked coldly.
Corinne quickly raised her hands.
As the man untied her hands, his gaze fell on her slender wrists.
‘Huh, that’s so weird. Her body is huge like a whale’s, even her face is all round and puffy, yet her wrists are still so skinny...’
thought the silver-haired man.
He threw the rope aside and shouted, “Now draw!”
Corinne spread out her hands innocently. “How am I supposed to draw when I don’t have any pen or paper?”
The silver-haired man glared at her and gave her a warning look before turning to find some pen and paper for her.
Suddenly...
Bang!
The group of young men sitting outside eating and drinking was having so much fun that they did not hear the commotion
coming from inside the room.
...
Meanwhile, a group of cars arrived at the explosion site, and everyone got down from their cars.
Sunny surveyed the area with a frown. “This place has been blown to nothing. Will Corinne really be here?”
Lucas got out of his car too and narrowed his eyes as he looked around the place. He then waved his hand for his men to search
every corner for any clues that might point them to Corinne’s whereabouts while he combed the area as well.
Suddenly, he bent down to take a closer look at something on the ground. He shone his flashlight over it and saw other tire
tracks apart from the ones that came from their cars. He then looked up toward the direction the cars drove off in.
Seeing this, Aaron walked over to him to take a look too. “Hey guys, come check this out! These tire tracks look fresh and
they’ve gone off in that direction! If I remember correctly, there should be a town there.”
