The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Anya quickly composed herself and pretended to be clueless again. “What are you talking about? It’s fine if you don’t want to
drink the juice my mom made for you, but do have to slander her like that?” you really
Corinne straightened herself up and chuckled softly. “Then why did you come running to the bathroom to throw up after you
drank the juice your mother so kindly made?”
“I didn’t throw up! I was using the toilet as normal people do!”
Corinne knew Anya would not admit it. “Is that so? Should I ask your grandparents to send the pomegranate juice to the lab to
see if there’s anything else added to it?”
Anya started to panic. “That’s enough bullsh*t, Corinne! Let me tell you something. This is my house, and no one in my family
will ever believe your words over mine!”
“Well, how about we give it a try and see?” suggested Corinne with a smile.
Anya knew she was in the wrong, so she did not dare to provoke Corinne further. Gritting her teeth, she tried to change the topic,
“What is it that you want, Corinne? Isn’t it enough that you stole Jeremy away from me? You’re trying to get close to my family
now, too?”
Corinne walked casually toward her. “First of all, Jeremy was never yours, so I didn’t steal him from you. Second of all, I only
came because your family insisted I visit them, so it wasn’t me who was trying to get close to them.” you didn’t come
Anya’s eyes widened in anger. “Jeremy was mine! He would’ve married me if into the picture. Corinne Carew, you’re nothing but
a homewrecker!”
Corinne scoffed. “As if I’d ever do something like that. Besides, your mother was the bona fide. homewrecker seeing as how
she’s your father’s wife now. Don’t you think so?”
“What... What the heck are you talking about?” Anya looked at Corinne in alarm, wondering how Corinne knew about what
Phoebe did in the past.
At that moment, they heard the servants whispering outside, “Mister Jeremy is here!”
The two girls looked out the window and saw a sports car driving into the mansion’s compound. Once the car was parked, a tall,
handsome man got out and strode toward the mansion.

Leaving Corinne aside, Anya ran out to greet the man while the former walked leisurely back to the dining room.
As soon as Jeremy stepped into the foyer, Anya greeted him excitedly. “Hey, Jeremy! We’re just having dinner. Why don’t you
join us?”
Jeremy glanced at her before going into the dining room. There, he scanned the group coldly before his eyes landed on Corinne,
who was eating her food with gusto.
He walked over to where she was sitting while nodding to all the elders on his way there as a form of greeting.
Finally, he stood behind Corinne and pulled out the napkin to help her wipe her mouth.
“Are you done having fun here? It’s time for you to go home.”
Anya, who had come in after Jeremy, could not help but feel jealous of Corinne. ‘I should be the one Jeremy loves, not that
country bumpkin over there.”
Corinne was used to Jeremy treating her like a kid, so she was unfazed by him wiping her mouth. “I’m not done eating yet. We
can leave after dinner.”
Jeremy frowned. He did not want to stay a minute longer than he had to.
“We can have another dinner at home.”
Hearing this, Cedric could not help but feel Jeremy had come to steal Corinne from him. “Hey, you, Holden. What’s the rush?
Didn’t you hear her say she wants to finish her dinner first?”
Jeremy’s eyebrows furrowed. He glanced at Cedric and told himself to keep his temper in check. since the other man was much
older than him.
As for Lucas, he decided to behave courteously toward Jeremy for Corinne’s sake. “Corinne hasn’t had her fill yet, so why don’t
you let her eat more? In the meantime, you can have dinner with us too.”
