The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Corinne bet Anya was a wonderful, perfect person to have so many people willingly protect her.
She thought for a while and said to Sunny, “I’ll give you a solution. Your family is rich too, isn’t it? Even if Jeremy pulls his
investment from Rosie’s family business, your family can invest and help your sister’s best friend to get through this difficulty.”
Sunny looked embarrassed. “I have no say in my family’s financial decision yet... My brother makes a clear distinction between
public and private interests, and he never likes Rosie, so that’s...not going to happen.”
Feeling apologetic, Corinne said, “Well, there’s nothing I can do to help you.”
Knowing her place, she knew her words did not mean much to Jeremy, and she did not have the right to interfere with his
financial decision. Even if Jeremy listened to her, she was not going to be the person to plead for Rosie.
It was not her style to help someone who hurt her several times, nearly costing her life in the process. She was a firm believer
that good would always be rewarded with good, and evil with evil. People who made mistakes had to bear the consequences of
their actions.
Sunny furrowed his brows vehemently and lowered his body as he took a step forward. “Corinne, please, I beg you. Please, go
talk to Jeremy...”
Even so, that did not change Corinne’s mind. She placed her arms on the chair handle, tilted her head, and used her hand to
support her head. “I’m tired.”
Annie came quickly to protect her by shoving Sunny. “Did you hear that? Corinne said she’s tired, so you get out of here now.
Stop disturbing her from resting!”
Since Sunny was already in a bad mood, it engulfed him even more when Annie got herself involved. “Annie Levine, I’m talking
to Corinne. Stay out of this! It’s none of your business!”
Annie stood her ground. “How is it none of my business? Anything that has to do with Corinne has to do with me! This isn’t the
first time Rosie bullied Corinne. It makes sense for Jeremy to do something to her for payback. I even think the punishment is too
light!”
Sunny could never win a fight over her. He was so angry that the blue veins on his foreheads popped out. “Go away! You have
no say in this!”

He tried to circle past Annie to continue to talk to Corinne, but Annie spread her arms to stop him. “You’re the one who should go
away! This is my uncle and Corinne’s room, and I have every right to say anything I want here!”
“Annie Levine! You... You’re a bummer!”
“Hahaha! Here I was wondering how you’ll fight back. Bummer? That’s all you can think of? Here, take this! Sunny Rivera, you’re
an idiot!”
“Annie Levine!”
Thus, they broke out into another argument, which caused a headache for Corinne.
Chapter 229
She sighed.
When they were not looking, she got up secretly and left the room to seek peace and quiet.
...
At the same time, in another room.
“Alright, Jeremy. I admit...I was the one who placed the ear stud in one of the boots. But I only did it to scare Corinne! I didn’t
know Moonshine would throw Corinne down the cliff...”
The terrified Rosie quickly admitted her sin without arguing back once she knew Jeremy was going to retract his investment in
her family business.
Her family business had not been doing well for the last couple of years, and they were only able to continue with the support
from Holden Group. If Jeremy pulled back his investment, her family business would be done for!
In the past, Jeremy wavered and decided to invest in her family business because of Anya, but at this moment, he thought of
pulling back his investment because of Corinne!
