The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Jason was a little taken aback by Lucas’ answer, and he smiled self-deprecatingly.
“So as Corinne’s brother, you’re willing to see past the bad blood between the two families and let Corinne marry Jeremy?”
“I don’t want to do anything that’ll make Corinne sad since it’s taken me this long to find her,” said Lucas seriously. “That means
I’ll give her anything she wants. I’ll still keep an eye on her even if she marries Jeremy, and I’ll kill him if he dares to make her
cry.”
Jason looked at Lucas stunned before pretending to be frightened. “I pity the poor fool who has you as his brother-in-law.”
“Well, no one’s stopping you from leaving if you’re scared.”
Jason smiled. “Oh, come on, Lucas! Why don’t you consider having me as your brother-in-law? I promise I’ll treat Corinne better
than Jeremy treats her.”
“But she doesn’t like you,” said Lucas, going straight for the jugular.
Jason’s smile froze. A second later, he shrugged. “Who’s to say she won’t like me in the future?”
Lucas narrowed his eyes. “Corinne and I are the same. If she doesn’t like someone at first, she’ll never like them later.”
Not liking the conversation anymore, Jason waved his hand and said, “You’re not fun at all. What’s more, I’ve never seen you
take an interest in any girl before in all the years I’ve known you! So no, Corinne’s not as cold as you.”
Lucas was speechless.
Jason put down his coffee cup. “I’m not going to waste my time talking to you anymore when I could be talking to Corinne.”
As unhappy as Lucas was, he did not stop Jason from leaving. He knew Corinne’s heart was not that easy to be won over.
Corinne was eating a barbecued skewer when Jason walked over and sat next to her. He smiled at her and said, “You sure are
enjoying your food, Corinne. May I try some of the ones you’re eating?”
Corinne glanced at Jason. “Just eat whatever you want.”
Corinne referred to the plenty more food on the table, so she was speechless when Jason grabbed her half-eaten food from her
hand and ate it. She did not expect him to do that, so she was not quick enough to object.

‘Oh well, no point asking for the food back now that he’s eaten it,’ thought Corinne as she picked up her glass of water.
Jason took a bit of the food and said with a smile, “Mm, this is delicious! You know, Corinne, I can buy food like this for you
whenever you want.”
Corinne sipped her water and said, “No, thanks. I can buy it myself.”
Jason smiled. “I meant I could buy it for you if you don’t have time to spare.”
“It’s okay. I can ask for delivery.”
“Won’t you at least give me a chance?” asked Jason helplessly.
Corinne glanced at him. “What chance are you talking about?”
“The chance to be your boyfriend in the future,” replied Jason boldly.
Corinne laughed. “Give it up! That’s never going to happen.”
Jason sighed with mock frustration. “Corinne, are you seriously going to forgive Jeremy? You do know we men never change,
right? You shouldn’t go back to him.”
Both Aaron and Xante, who sat on the other side, knew what Jason was trying to do. However, they decided not to intervene
since they knew Corinne was capable of handling this.
