The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 718
‘All these years I’ve been searching for Luna and she happened to be right under my nose. Oh, how god loves to play around
with my life,’ thought Lucas.
“That means I, her own brother, had not only wronged her again and again but teamed up with others to hurt her, bully her, pour
coffee over her, and even forced her to get rid of the baby inside her belly!” moaned Lucas regretfully.
Edmund just stood there. He was at a complete loss at what to do. “Umm... Mister Lucas, you shouldn’t be so hard on yourself
since you had no idea Miss Corinne was actually Miss Luna...” ‘I’m so glad I finally found her but I won’t blame her if she doesn’t
accept me as her brother... not after all the things I did to her,’ thought Lucas. He rested his forehead in his palm and took a
deep breath. “Where is Corinne now?”
“She went back with Jeremy and they should be sleeping right now.”
Lucas nodded blankly. “I want to see her tomorrow. Make it happen.”
“Yes, Mister Lucas.”
Lucas looked up at him and said worriedly, “Don’t force her to meet with me if she doesn’t want to. Make sure you only treat her
with the utmost respect.”
Edmund nodded. “Don’t worry, Mister Lucas. I know what to do.”
Lucas pinched the space between his brow before waving tiredly as a way of telling him he could leave the study which was
exactly what Edmund did.
The next morning, the first thing Corinne saw when she opened her eyes were Jeremy’s eyes staring back at her. She was used
to sleeping alone since young so seeing a man beside her caused her to jump up in fright and to instinctively back away.
“What’s wrong? Did I scare you?” asked Jeremy with a frown when he saw how she reacted. It was only then Corinne
remembered she had moved back to Jeremy’s place and their relationship had progressed by leaps and bounds. Even though
they had done the deed last night, she still could not help but blush at the sight of him. “Ahem. What time is it now? Don’t you
have to go to work?”
Jeremy narrowed his eyes. “How can I go to work when someone is sleeping on top of me?”

Corinne frowned in confusion. She then looked down and discovered the pillow she thought she was sleeping on was actually
Jeremy’s arm! She chuckled wryly and said, “You could’ve pulled out your arm while I was sleeping. It’s not like my head is made
of stone, making it impossible for you to move your arm.”
‘Why, this little rascal never misses a chance to tease me huh!’ Jeremy pretended to be angry as he pinched her cheeks. “Why
can’t you take my gesture as me wanting to be nice to you? I wanted to let you sleep a bit longer since you looked so tired after
what we did last night. I didn’t dare to move my arm ’cause what if doing so woke you up?”
His words brought back the memory of what they did last night, which immediately made Corinne blushed even more. She sat
straight up and said, “Okay, you can take away your arm
now that I’m wide awake.”
Jeremy sat up too and stretched his arms to warm them up. “Oh, so you’re the use-me-and- lose-me kind of girl eh? But I seem
to recall how tightly you were gripping me with your legs. last night...”
Corinne’s face immediately turned as red as a tomato with embarrassment and she could not help but cut in, “Stop right there,
Mister!”
