The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 619
Corinne blinked awkwardly and quickly moved her eyes away. She then sat back down In her seat.
“Umm... Please bear with the pain a little if your eye still hurts. We should be arriving at the hospital soon.”
Jeremy did not say anything. Instead, he leaned back against the seat and looked at her.
At that moment, Corinne felt conflicted. On the one hand, she did not want to have anything to do with. Jeremy, but on the other,
she was very worried that she had caused him to go blind.
She dug her fingers anxiously into her palm when Jeremy suddenly called out her name.
“Corinne.”
She thought his eye was hurting again, so she quickly turned toward him and asked, “What’s the matter? Did the pain come back
again?”
Jeremy narrowed his eyes and looked probingly at her. “What’s your real relationship with Aaron of Newmoon Group?”
The sudden question caught her off guard. There she was, worrying about his eye, and he asked her something like that.
“It’s like I told you. He’s my husband, and I’m his wife.”
Jeremy’s eyes were burning by then as though wanting to burn her lies away. “Is he a real husband or a fake husband?”
Corinne was shocked again. “Why is he asking me that? Could it be that he knows I’m lying?”
Guilt began to fill her heart, but that did not make her change her answer. “Real... Real husband, of course.”
She told herself she had no choice but to keep up with the lie because that was how lies worked. Once one told a lie, one had to
come up with another five lies to keep the first lie going.
Jeremy scoffed. “Oh, really? Then, why isn’t there a marriage record in the City Hall?”
Corinne did not know how to answer him.
“What? You can’t come up with another lie anymore?”

“Mister Jeremy, don’t you find what you did intrusive? What right do you have to look into my private affairs like that?”
Jeremy’s expression became nonchalant but threatening nonetheless. “Oh, I have no right. I just did it to satisfy my curiosity.”
Corinne frowned and glared at him in annoyance and anger. “Well, let me satisfy that curiosity of yours. It’s not weird that you
can’t find our marriage record in the City Hall since we registered our marriage abroad!”
“Which country?”
“That’s not something for you to know.”
Jeremy narrowed his eyes. “From what I know, there’s no record of you flying out of the country too.”
Corinne took a deep breath and said, “That’s because we took my husband’s private jet, so you won’t find any record of me at
the airport.”
Jeremy frowned. “Do you love him?”
Corinne was speechless.
“Answer me.”
“Yes. I love him very much.”
She told the truth. She had always loved Aaron and Xante too. However, the love she had for thern was not romantic, but it was
the kind that grew because ever since they were little, they had been through so much together. She loved and depended on
them like they were her brother and sister.
Jeremy’s eyes immediately darkened at her answer. “Corinne, you’d better not lie to me!”
Corinne cleared her throat to hide her guilt. “Why would I lie to you? Besides, why don’t you worry more about your eye instead
of asking me all these pointless questions?!”
Jeremy did not say anything anymore. He simply threw her a cold glance before closing his eyes to rest.
Ten minutes later, the car stopped in front of the hospital..
Edmund turned around and said, “We’re here, Mister Jeremy.
