The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Jeremy did not allow Corinne to exert herself and help him, so he sternly replied, "I'm not that weak, you know? Don't worry about me. It's just a minor injury. I want to change your mother's first impression of me."
Corinne smirked. "I'm rooting for you, then. Do your best to win her over!"
"I'll give it my all." Jeremy smiled.
When they returned to Emily's ward, Jeremy once again drew everyone's attention there as he changed into a hospital gown, much to Emily, Melinda, and Lilin's confusion.
Jeremy stepped forward gracefully and placed the gifts down on the bed. "I got these for you, ma'am. I hope you'll like them."

"Something did happen. He got injured."
Emily was visibly worried. "Injured? Right after he walked out? Could you please explain what happened?"
Melinda came over and asked, "Yes, Corinne, please fill us in on what's going on! How did he get himself injured in the hospital?"

Corinne then began to explain, "He-"

Corinne glanced at Jeremy and said, "It'll be fine. My mom is a reasonable person. Besides, there's no use hiding anything when you're dressed in a hospital gown! She'll be even more worried if we don't tell her the truth, and she'll start having all sorts of
random thoughts." Visit bignovels.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
Emily nodded. "She's right. Could you please tell me what happened?"
Corinne finally answered, "We ran into Sophia."

Melinda's expression soured slightly, and she was just as curious to know what had happened, "What happened with you and Sophia? Did she hurt you again?
