The Day I Kissed An Older Man

“Thank you very much, Mister Jeremy, for your willingness to cooperate!” Aaron could sense that
Jeremy’s words were not as simple as they seemed, but since he did not know the specific situation, he could only respond
accordingly.
Both men fell silent, but the atmosphere between them was extremely tense as if the calm before a storm.
Fortunately, Corinne timely broke the uncomfortable ‘tranquility’ in the living room by coming out of the bedroom with her
luggage.
“Mister, I’ve packed my bags!” Jeremy remained expressionless, simply nodding slightly in response as he walked toward her
from the sofa.
Aaron also stood up, his face filled with ‘tenderness’ as he asked, “Darling, why are you holding at suitcase? Where are you
going without telling your husband?”
Corinne glanced at Aaron, who was still acting affectionate and helplessly tugged at the corner of her mouth. “Enough! Don’t call
me ‘darling’ anymore, the cover is blown!”
Aaron was speechless. Damn, the cover is blown?!
Corinne no longer paid attention to Aaron and looked up calmly at Jeremy. “Mister, we can go now!”
To keep the peace, she had to quickly pull Jeremy away to prevent this man from becoming overbearing and causing trouble for
Aaron.
Jeremy lowered his gaze and looked at the small suitcase she was holding, raising an eyebrow and reminding her in a deep
voice, “What about the cat?”
The cat?
Corinne was momentarily stunned but quickly understood his meaning. She lowered her head and looked at Mimi obediently
squatting at Aaron’s feet. “Um, we’re not taking the cat. It’s getting old and doesn’t like moving to new environments. I’ll come
back often to see it.”
She would have to come back here often in the future?

Jeremy’s brow furrowed, but he did not say anything. He simply took the suitcase from the girl’s hand and then wrapped his long
arm around her, gently gripping her shoulder. “Let’s go then.”
Aaron watched the possessive gesture of the man named Huo toward Corinne and felt a strong sense of
oppression.
Mister Jeremy’s declaration of sovereignty could not be more obvious! Until Jeremy held Corinne and left, Aaron still did not
understand the situation. Did he just leave like that? Didn’t the boss say not to have any connection with that scumbag from the
Holdens anymore?
Bang!
The door of another room suddenly opened, and Xante lazily poked her head out, looking like she just woke up.
Aaron snapped back to reality and furrowed his brows. “Xante, I didn’t know you were home!”
Xante nodded. “Didn’t sleep enough. Didn’t go to the company today.”
Aaron complained, “Then why didn’t you come out earlier? The boss was taken away by Jeremy!”
Xante said, “I heard.”
Aaron asked, “Xante, do you think the boss went with Jeremy willingly?”
Xante brushed her medium-length curly hair and leaned against the door frame of the room, casually adjusting her gold-rimmed
glasses. There was a hint of deep meaning in her eyes. “Don’t try to guess the boss’s thoughts. We won’t understand even if we
do.”
Aaron pondered for a moment and thought it made sense.
“By the way, how did Jeremy find out that our marriage with the boss was fake? Didn’t we act so lovingly before?”
Xante looked at him disdainfully and rolled her eyes. “With your promiscuous behavior outside, do you think you can escape
Jeremy’s scrutiny?”

Aaron realized that he blew their cover and felt quite embarrassed. He shrugged. “Well, sorry about that! But I can’t help it. I’m
not one to abstain from pleasure. I need to seek happiness in every moment of my life!”
Xante gave him a disdainful look. “Take care of yourself!”
Holden’s estate.
On the way, Corinne sat obediently in the car, being very well-behaved.
She already knew that struggling was pointless. At most, it would give that man next door an excuse to physically confine her.
