The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 898 Anya frowned innocently. “I know that I was wrong when I didn’t treat Corinne well in the past, but I don’t think you
should treat her that well. Corinne is Jeremy’s wife, so she’s considered a member of the Holdens, too. The Riveras haven’t
been on good terms with the Holdens for quite some time. If you treat her too nicely, others might think that we’re weak...” Lucas
frowned. “Corinne and the Holdens are two separate entities! Why do you think we shouldn’t treat her well? It should be you, of
all people, who are supposed to be more polite to her!” Anya was a little afraid when she heard Lucas’ tone. She said hurriedly, “I
treat her with the utmost respect, Lucas! I even offered to give her a ride today! You’ve never been mean to her, so I just think
you shouldn’t lower yourself for her. I feel heartbroken when I see you like that...” Lucas glared coldly at her. “You don’t need to
feel that way for me.” He then turned around and went back into the office. Since Edmund was not around to stop Anya from
following him, she bit her lip begrudgingly and followed Lucas in with her lunch box. Outside the building, Corinne closed her
eyes when someone knocked on the glass window and woke her up. “Miss Corinne!” Edmund called softly. Corinne woke up
from her nap. She lowered the car window and said lazily, “Oh, it’s you, Edmund. What’s up?” Enter title... 10/7/23, 12:47 AM

never very friendly with her because of Lucas, yet she never held it against him and treated him politely nonetheless. “As you’re
already here, Mister Lucas invited you to come up and have a meal.” Corinne waved her hand to reject the offer. “I appreciate
the gesture, but I’ll be fine on my own.” Edmund was not surprised. He already expected her to reject the offer, and there was
nothing he could do about it. Corinne had never been treated well during her time at the company, so it should not be surprising
she would not be keen on going upstairs. Edmund thought for a moment and asked once more, “It just so happens to be lunch
hour. If I recall, you quite enjoy our cafeteria’s food. Just think of it as a restaurant and have lunch there. At least you would’ve
gotten something out of coming here.” Corinne did enjoy the food served there, and she particularly enjoyed one of the pork
dishes there. Although it had been a while since she worked there, she remembered how delicious that particular dish was.
Edmund had been instructed by Lucas to watch her every move, so it was not surprising he would know what kind of food she
ate at the cafeteria. Corinne glanced at him. She had been swayed by the possibility of having lunch there. “Isn’t it exclusively for
the company’s employees?” Edmund nodded respectfully. “It won’t be an issue if it was you.” Corinne asked again. “Should I pay
for the meal, then?” “Not at all!” Edmund replied. “Mister Lucas will never allow it! Just eat whatever you like to your heart’s
content!” Corinne’s expression soured, and she immediately lost interest. “Forget about it, then. I’m not the kind of person who
likes
freeloading.” Edmund frowned. “Okay, okay! You can pay for your lunch then!” Corinne got out of the car. She decided to head
upstairs for lunch before going back home. There was nothing for her to do at home, anyway.

Before she walked into the building, Corinne saw a queue at the ice cream kiosk of a fast-food restaurant just opposite. She
craved some ice cream, so she said to Edmund, “You can go on ahead. I’ll catch up. I’m going to get an ice cream before
heading up.”
