The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 1486
Jeremy was indeed surprised, but he was shocked at why a man would be knocking at his door at this late hour. That was all. He
did not understand what Lucas was saying at all.
“Who are you?” he asked.
Lucas was stunned by the question. His sneer became even more obvious when he remarked, “What’s the matter? Did you lose
your memory or something?”
“Yes, I did. Judging by the way you’re talking to me, I’m guessing we used to be enemies?” asked Jeremy calmly.
Lucas was incensed by his nonchalance. “You b*stard! Do you have any idea how long Corinne has been looking for you?
You’ve wasted three years of her life!”
Jeremy felt a slight ache in his heart when he heard the name ‘Corinne’.
“Who’s Corinne?” he asked with a raised eyebrow.
Lucas grabbed him by the collar. “I should’ve never let Corinne marry a b* stard like you!”
At that moment, the sound of an elevator door opening could be heard coming from the corridor.
Jeremy glanced in the direction of the elevator before pushing Lucas’ hand away. “I can’t talk now. Come back tomorrow
afternoon at two o’clock.
She’ll be going out for an hour, so we can talk then.”
Lucas let go of his collar and looked toward the corridor. He immediately understood what was going on when he heard the
sound of high heels clacking on the ground.
He threw one last cold glance at Jeremy before turning around and going back to his suite.
Sophia did not see anyone in the corridor when she turned around the corner, but she did hear the sound of the door closing.
Alarmed, she strode quickly to her presidential suite and opened the door with her key card to see Jeremy just about to turn
around in his wheelchair.

“Zachary, did someone come just now?” she asked as she looked around the room to check for signs of other people having
been inside.
Without turning back to look at her, Jeremy continued to wheel himself to the bedroom while saying calmly, “Yeah. It was
housekeeping. I told them there was no need to clean the room since Benjamin was still sleeping.”
His answer did not get rid of Sophia’s skepticism. She squeezed out a smile and said, “But I didn’t see housekeeping in the
corridor when I came in just now.”
“They went to clean the suite opposite ours after I told them there was no need for their service,” replied Jeremy as calmly as
usual.
It was only then the suspicion in Sophia’s eyes disappeared. “Oh, so someone is staying at the suite opposite ours. Zachary,
come take a look at all the groceries I’ve bought! What shall we make with them?”
“You should put the groceries in the kitchen first while I go check whether Benjamin is awake,” said Jeremy without even turning
around to look at her once.
His attitude dampened Sophia’s happy mood. She thought he finally warmed up to her when he suggested they cook something
together, but he still ended up treating her coldly.
■Just what do I have to do to make him love me?’ wondered Sophia sadly. 1
“How did it go, Mister Lucas? Is the man staying in the opposite suite really Mister Jeremy?” asked Edmund when Lucas walked
into his suite.
Lucas shook his head vaguely. “That guy doesn’t know me. I don’t know whether he’s faking it or if he has really lost his
memory.”
“He lost his memory?” asked Edmund in shock.
Lucas sat on the sofa and took a sip of water. “It seems like he’s being controlled by Sophia. He told me to go back tomorrow
afternoon at two o’clock to talk since she’d be out then.”
Edmund frowned with alarm. “Be careful, Mister Lucas. It might be a trap.”
Lucas nodded. He was well aware of that, too.

Edmund pointed to the phone on the coffee table and said, “Mister Lucas, Miss Corinne called you just now. I told her you’ll give
her a call later.
Mister Maxwell called you as well, but I didn’t dare to answer on your behalf.”
