The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 768
When Jeremy got downstairs, he saw Jason passing one dessert after another to Corinne. Seeing this, he frowned and stopped
in his tracks.
“Come here,” he ordered. His voice cut through the room, causing everyone to fall silent.
Corinne was enjoying the dessert with gusto, and when she looked up, she saw Jeremy glaring at her. Still, that did not stop her
from enjoying her dessert.
“Didn’t you hear what I said? Come. Here. Now!” ordered Jeremy again when he saw she had no intention of doing so.
Only then did Corinne get up and walk over to him with the dessert still in her hand. “Why are you being such a sour puss?”
Jeremy pulled her to him tightly before confiscating the dessert in her hand. “Didn’t I tell you not to eat too much dessert?”
Corinne pouted. “You took so long to come down, and I got bored. It’s not like I can drink with the others, so what else can I do
but eat?”
Her words cut deep into his psyche. He immediately felt his heart tightened because he knew he was wrong.
“Sorry, little rascal, for making you wait so long. You can punish me however you want, but you have to stop eating dessert right
away.”
Corinne simply scoffed and pouted.
It was rare for the others to see Jeremy behaving so love-struck. Zeke, with a glass of his wine, leaned against Jason and said,
“Jeremy, never in my life would I imagine seeing this side of you.”
To this, Jeremy simply glared at him.
“Corinne, do make sure to punish Jeremy as hard as you can so that he’ll learn not to leave you alone like this again,” said Zeke
mischievously.
Gerald had never been the type to involve himself in his friends’ love life, so he chose to remain silent and
nurse his wine instead.

Jason, however, laughed and asked, “Corinne, how are you going to punish Jeremy?”
Corinne stroked her chin. “Should I ask him to kneel on a remote or a washboard?”
Annie raised her hand and said resolutely, “You should ask him to kneel on a cactus!”
Zeke clapped in agreement. “Yes! That’s a great idea. Leave the cactus to me! I’ll have it delivered to your place tomorrow!”
-Jeremy threw a cold glance at the group. He was not in the mood for joking, so he said seriously, “It’s
getting late, so I’m going to bring Corinne home now. The rest of you can stay here for as long as you like. I’ll pick up the tab
later.”
*Tsk! Nonsense. It’s still so early. Or could it be....you’re in a rush to go home to receive your punishment?” asked Zeke.
Jeremy took off his jacket and placed it around Corinne’s shoulder to fend her from the cold night wind. “I can stay here and drink
like there’s no tomorrow, but she needs to go home to rest. So let’s make it another day.”

Zeke raised his glass and shook his head. “Tsk, tsk, tsk. Bros before h*es, Jeremy. Have you forgotten that?” He then stood up
and walked over to Jeremy. “Not allowing her to have too much dessert, worried about her catching a cold, and wanting her to
sleep early... Why, Jeremy, if I didn’t know better, I would’ve thought she’s your daughter instead of your wife.”
“Oh, p*ss off!” said Jeremy while throwing him a dirty look.
Gerald could not stand seeing Jeremy getting teased anymore, so he pulled Zeke aside. “Ignore him, Jeremy. This guy’s drunk
out of his mind.”
Having been friends for years, Jeremy naturally would not hold a grudge against Zeke.
“You had some wine too, didn’t you? Is your chauffeur here? I can give you two a ride home if he’s not, Gerald offered.
Jeremy shook his head. “It’s okay. You can stay here with the rest of them.”
