The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 620
Jeremy was probably in a lot of pain since he did not even light up his cigarette, which he held between his fingers throughout
the entire car ride. After the car stopped, he casually threw the cigarette into the trash can before getting out of the car.
Corinne looked at him getting out of the car while a multitude of emotions fought to dominate her heart.
Hesitating a little, she said, “Umm... I won’t be getting out of the car with you. I’ll wait here for your results. to come out, and I’m
willing to pay whatever medical fees you’ve incurred because of me.”
Jeremy paused in his movement and turned his head slightly to look unhappily at her.
Seeing that, Edmund quickly cleared his throat and said, “Miss Corinne, I think it’s best you accompany Mister Jeremy to see the
doctor. It won’t be safe for him to walk around alone with his eye hurt, and I can’t park the car here since it’s the emergency lane
for the ambulance. I have to park the car somewhere else.”
Corinne looked outside the car window and realized what Edmund said was right. They were indeed parked in the emergency
lane.
“Fine, but... Please come find us as soon as you’ve parked the car. There’s an urgent matter I need to attend to at home.”
Edmund sneaked a peek at Jeremy’s increasingly darkening face. It was then that he decided to lie to Corinne.
“Okay, Miss Corinne. I’ll come to look for you and Mister Jeremy as soon as I’ve parked the car.”
Thus, Corinne grudgingly got out of the car. She sighed heavily as she looked at the car away.
“Just how much do you not want to be with me?” asked Jeremy mockingly.
His voice pulled her away from her thoughts. She looked up at him and chuckled dryly.
“I just think there’s no need for us to spend time alone given our non-existent relationship.”
To that, Jeremy gave no reply. Instead, he scoffed, turned around, and headed inside the hospital. Left without a choice, Corinne
followed him into the hospital.

‘A man born with a silver spoon like him probably doesn’t even know how the admission process in the hospital works!’ thought
Corinne while rubbing her temples.
‘I’ll need to take care of him until Edmund comes back. First things first, I need to sign him in, get him a queue number, and bring
him to the doctor.’
She quickly found the registration counter. The nurse there asked her in a bored tone, “Which doctor do you want to see?”
“The ophthalmologist,” said Corinne.
“The OB-GYN specialist,” said Jeremy.
Corinne was stunned, and so was the nurse at the registration counter. She frowned and looked at the two of them.
“Are the two of you together?”
The corners of Corinne’s mouth twitched a little. “Yes, we’re together.”
“Then, which doctor do you want to see? The ophthalmologist or the OB-GYN specialist?”
“The ophthalmologist,” insisted Corinne.
“The OB-GYN specialist,” insisted Jeremy.
The nurse frowned unhappily. “This is no time to joke around. There are people waiting in line behind you. Come back when the
two of you decide which doctor you want to see.”
Corinne felt embarrassed for taking up the nurse’s time. She glared at Jeremy and said, “Shut up and let me do the talking.”
She returned to the counter and said politely, “Sorry about that. You can ignore what he said. We’d like to see the ophth-”
However, Jeremy inserted himself between Corinne and the nurse before she could finish speaking.” Please put us down for
both the ophthalmologist and OB-GYN specialist. Thanks,” he said sternly.
The nurse was starting to get angry at their antics. However, all of her anger turned into awe when she looked up at Jeremy’s
handsome face.
“O-okay. Please wait a moment.”

Not even a minute later, the nurse gave them two numbers-one for the ophthalmologist and the other for the OB-GYN specialist.
Corinne accepted the number with a darkened face. After thanking the nurse with a fake smile, she immediately walked past
Jeremy to give way to the people lining up behind her.
She waited until she came to an empty place before exploding in rage..
“Curse you, Jeremy!”
