The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 1481
‘Hmph! That’s laughable. So that’s why Jeremy stole the first baby. I can’t believe he’s been shamelessly playing one big happy
family with Sophia for the past three years while Corinne has been waiting for him to come back!’
“Edmund, stay by the door and monitor the situation through the peephole. Let me know immediately if anyone goes in or out of
the suite,” ordered Lucas with a darkened expression.
“Yes, Mister Lucas!” said Edmund. He then fixed his eyes through the peephole as if his life depended on it.
Lucas pinched the bridge of his nose after Edmund left. He was not at all concerned that Jeremy was alive. Ultimately, the only
person he was worried about was Corinne.
How would Corinne take it if she found out Jeremy stole one of her babies so he could be with Sophia? It would mean all the
time she spent missing, waiting, and searching for him was for nothing.
Lucas was sure Corinne would have a meltdown. It would be better for Jeremy to have been dead if the truth showed that he
deliberately betrayed and abandoned Corinne. That way, Corinne would not be that sad.
Plus, Corinne would not ever stop hoping for Jeremy’s return unless she received news of his death. Surely then, with the
passing years, she would eventually forget about him. 1
Meanwhile, in the presidential suite Sophia was staying in.
Sophia received a call from the auction house, asking her to go back to verify her identity as another patron accused her of being
the daughter of the land owner and artificially increasing the price of the land.
Sophia knew it was Corinne’s doing. She insisted to the auction house that she was not the land owner’s daughter and hung up
the phone.
She knew that would not be the end of the matter. There would definitely be more trouble down the line.
‘This is all that bttch’s fault! There’s bound to be trouble whenever she is! It’s like we’re fated to be archenemies or something,’
thought Sophia. 1
Sophia was not in the state of mind to care about that piece of land since she was more concerned about Jeremy’s reaction to
seeing Corinne.

Even though Jeremy did not behave any differently when he saw Corinne, Sophia still could not help but fear that his memory
would come rushing back at the trigger.
Three years ago, after they revoked their marriage license, Sophia made up some excuse of wanting Jeremy to help her check
out a suitor to make him stay longer in Molomia.
There was no suitor to begin with, however. Everyone in Molomia knew she was Adam’s daughter, so no one dared to woo her
at all.
The reason she wanted Jeremy to stay was that she had hired-though it did not come easy-a talented hypnotherapist to perform
hypnosis on Jeremy to make him forget about who he was and everything about his past.
She even asked the hypnotherapist to make Jeremy fall hopelessly and forever in love with her. Unfortunately, it did not work
even though the memory loss did.
The world-renowned hypnotherapist said he had never met a person with such strong willpower. No one had ever resisted his
hypnosis before.
Jeremy was the most difficult case he ever handled.
Hypnotizing Jeremy to make him forget about his past alone took a lot out of the hypnotherapist, and no matter how hard he
tried, he could not make Jeremy fall in love with Sophia.
Sophia sighed when she thought back to all that. ‘Even hypnosis is useless. Am I really that unloveable?’
