The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 281
‘Oh, he didn’t sleep a wink because he and Anya had spent the night experiencing the miracles of life!‘ Corinne remembered.
Jeremy frowned when he saw the look of disgust on her face.” Do I disgust you? All men have beards, you know.”
Corinne came back to her senses, got up from him, and shook her head after moving a little away. “No. You look handsome with
a beard.”
Whether or not he grew a beard had nothing to do with her, so the question of liking or disliking it did not arise.
“You think I’m handsome, then?” There was a surge of heat in Jeremy’s expression, for it was rare to hear her say something
nice about him.
Corinne remained calm. “Your handsomeness is a fact. My opinion doesn’t matter.”
“Is that why you are so cold toward me?”
“Am I supposed to be super friendly with you just because you’re handsome? There are plenty of handsome men out there, so
am I supposed to get close to all of them?”
Jeremy’s complexion darkened. He dragged her over, sat her down on the sofa with a sullen face, and abruptly placed the cake
plate in front of her as he said coldly, “Don’t think about that stuff. Eat your cake!”
Corinne snorted unhappily when she was forced to sit. ‘Yeah, yeah, I’ll eat it!‘

Her hands might be swollen, but she could still hold the fork- albeit with some effort.
She no longer kicked up a fuss and merely sat on the sofa while eating her cake. From time to time, she glanced at Jeremy’s
laptop screen too. He had stopped causing trouble and continued to focus on reviewing the documents on his laptop.
Occasionally, the long fingers of his hands would dance on the keys as if to make annotations on the documents he was
reviewing.

Corinne felt unbearably bored, so she sucked on the cake fork and asked, “When can I be discharged from the hospital, Mister?”
“In another three days at least.”
‘Three days! That’s too long!‘ Corinne did not want to stay in the hospital, so she negotiated with him. “I’ll be fine as long as I
don’t come into contact with allergens, right? I want to go home to recuperate. Can I? Please...”
The man turned around, and as soon as he saw Corinne was about to put a cake in her mouth, he raised his handsome
eyebrows and opened his mouth at her.
Corinne was taken aback for a moment when she saw that. ‘Is he...begging me for the cake? And what’s with that tiny hint of
threat in his eyes? Is he saying that I have to feed him if I am to have the smallest chance of discussing this with him?‘
She was a little upset after coming to realize what he meant, but since she did not want to stay in the hospital for three more
days, she decided to set down the cake that she had not yet eaten and reach out to get a new fork to feed him.
Unexpectedly, his big hand grabbed her wrist before she could put it down, and he pulled her over forcibly to feed himself
indirectly. He showed no hesitation at all in eating the cake she had on her fork.
Corinne’s heart skipped a beat, and by the time she regained her senses, she quickly threw the fork away and replaced it with a
new one.
Jeremy frowned. “Do I disgust you that much?”
Corinne cleared her throat, curled her lips, and said, “It’s unhygienic. Sharing utensils is equivalent to engaging in a ritual of germ
exchange! You might not mind it as much, but I do!”
Jeremy snorted softly. “Too late to worry about that. The germ exchange between us has already happened.”
‘Germ...exchange...‘ Although he did not mention anything in specific, he was clearly referring to what happened on the night
she got drugged, was in heat, and engaged in a passionate spiritual and physical encounter with him.
She wanted to forget it, which made it even more irksome that he had mentioned it again.
Corinne could not take it anymore. “Mister!”

Jeremy felt as though he had finally let out his anger on her and chuckled softly after seeing her blushing face. He stopped
causing trouble and raised his hand to rub her head. “Okay. Don’t eat too much sweet stuff. A hot meal will be delivered to you
soon.”
Corinne was stunned. Was he some sort of schizophrenic? He was gloomy one second and then cheery the next!

She turned her face away and uttered a displeased grunt.
Jeremy seemed to tease her whenever he had nothing better to do.
Her phone then vibrated all of a sudden, and Corinne put down the cake fork so she could reach out and take the phone.
She has been using Jeremy’s cell phone recently, and all his contacts were stored in it. Generally, Tommy and Zeke were the
ones who would call the number on occasion. The
incoming call she was receiving then happened to be from a number that was not saved.
Corinne picked up the phone, and since it was inconvenient for her to swipe and answer due to her gauze–wrapped hand, she
used her chin to swipe the screen and answer it.
Anya’s terrified voice came from the other end.
“Ah! Help! Don’t! Don’t come here! Jeremy! I’m scared! Help me! Come quick...”
Corinne frowned and walked over to Jeremy immediately as she handed the phone to him. “It’s for you, Mister. Something
apparently happened to your Anya!”
