The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 643
Corinne nodded. “Really.”
Sunny looked at her. For some reason, even though he successfully extracted a guarantee out of Corinne, he still could not help
but feel conflicted about the whole thing.
Corinne did not want to talk about Jeremy anymore so she absent-mindedly changed the topic. “By the way, I saw your brother in
Kanton City today.”
Sunny’s pupils immediately shrank to pinpoint size and the glass of water dropped from his hand. It was a good thing Corinne
managed to catch it because if not, the water would have splashed all over the hospital bed.
Sunny took a gulp fearfully as though he saw a ghost. “Did you tell him I’m here too?” he asked cautiously.
“Not yet.” Corinne placed the glass of water on the bedside table. “I was just going to ask you whether I should tell your brother
so that he could come here and bring you home for some bed rest.”
Hearing that, Sunny heaved a long sigh of relief before shaking his head vehemently to let her know that under no circumstances
should she tell his brother he was in Kanton City too.
“No! Don’t you dare tell Lucas! I’ll go home by myself tomorrow.”
However, before Corinne could say anything, the ward door was suddenly pushed open, and in walked Lucas at a leisurely pace.
“Do you seriously think just because she doesn’t tell me, I won’t find out you’re here in Kanton City too?” Lucas questioned him
sternly.
Sunny was shocked to see Lucas standing in front of him; a chill immediately ran up his spine. “Lucas! What, what are you doing
here?” he asked fearfully. Without waiting for his reply, he turned to glare at Corinne vehemently.
Corinne was just as surprised as he was. She shrugged, put out her hands, and said, “I swear to god that I wasn’t the one who
told him you’re here.”
Lucas glanced coldly at Corinne, who he ran into moments before. After that, he walked unhappily to the bed and looked down
condescendingly at the poor Sunny. “How stupid do you have to be to run away from home? It hasn’t even been 24 hours yet
and look where you’ve ended up!”

Sunny tried to explain himself. “I didn’t run away from home, Lucas, I just wanted to have some fun in Kanton City. I swear I was
going to go back tomorrow.”
Lucas chuckled coldly. “Have some fun? Does that include hurting yourself in the head?”
Sunny could not help but feel Lucas was being overly harsh on him. “It was an accident/ A woman was having an asthma attack
and I was in a rush to help her so, I ran into a glass door.”
Lucas did not have the patience to listen to his explanation so he coldly cut him off. “You can’t even take care of yourself and yet
you want to help someone else? You should help yourself first before helping others. Who do you think you are? A hero? It’s
important to know your limits!”
Sunny dropped his head and fell silent. He thought Lucas would forgive him or even praise him a little for doing something kind
but all he got in return was a scolding. He tried hard to keep his tears in but alas, he failed to even do that.
His head dropped even lower in a bid to prevent others from seeing him crying. As embarrassing as it was, he could not stop
himself from crying. Corinne frowned when she saw the blanket slowly getting stained by Sunny’s tears.
After thinking about it, she decided to say something to defuse the situation. “Mister Lucas, if I may?”
