Semua Bab The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Bab 1031 - Bab 1040

Jeremy looked at Francine with half-narrowed eyes and an indecipherable expression.Francine had seen how Jeremy broke down after receiving news of Corinne's death, so she knew just how important she was to him. She also understood Jeremy must be feeling all sorts of emotions, so it was best for her to give the couple some space.Corinne walked up to him. "Hey, Mister."Only when she got closer did she realize Jeremy was holding an unlit cigarette between his fingers. She did not know why, but it seemed like it had been a long time since Jeremy smoked.Jeremy threw the unlit cigarette to a trash can not far away before taking off his jacket and putting it around Corinne's shoulders. After that, he silently turned and left.Corinne frowned and followed after him.As dense as Francine could be sometimes, even she could tell something was off about the way her brother and sister-in-law interacted with each other. Not daring to walk too close to them, she waited until they were a few

Edmund never felt pressure like this before. "Sir, it's because…"Cedric glared at him. "You better not play dumb and tell us the truth. There'll be hell to pay if I detect a lie in your words!"'I can't keep it a secret anymore. They're going to find out sooner or later…' thought Edmund. He sighed helplessly and said, "It's because Miss Corinne is—""It's because she's your savior, Grandpa. We owe her that much," Lucas chimed in just in time.Cedric and Beatrice turned toward the door and saw Lucas limping back in with the help of his crutches.Edmund sighed in relief. Faced with Cedric's immense pressure, he nearly blurted Corinne's secret!Lucas limped up to Cedric and passed him a bottle of medicine. "Here's the blood pressure medicine you've asked for, Grandpa."Both Cedric and Beatrice were speechless. 'How did he get back so fast?'Lucas did not actually get the medicine himself. Halfway through, he suddenly realized Beatrice had sent him away on purpose, so he called hi

Seeing this, Corinne quickly helped Pamela up. She propped up her pillow behind her so it would be more comfortable for her to lean against the headrest.After settling herself, Pamela patted Corinne's hand. "Corinne, why didn't you tell me you were pregnant? I would've still been kept in the dark about it if it weren't for what happened today."Corinne smiled and explained, "I didn't mean to keep it a secret from you. I just didn't want you to worry about me and…stopping me from doing all sorts of things to keep the baby safe."Pamela frowned. "We're family. How can I not worry about you and the baby? You're both equally important to me! Look what happens when I'm not there to stop you from doing things! You got hit by a car, for god's sake! Fortunately, you're still alive. I don't think I can handle losing you and the baby."Corinne nodded docilely. "Okay, I promise you I'll listen to everything you say from now on."A smile finally appeared on Pamela's face. 'Thank god both she

Corinne could still feel Jeremy trembling slightly. 'Seems like he's still traumatized by what happened…'In some twisted way, she felt rather touched as no one ever cared that much about her before. After Emily went missing, Corinne was treated worse than a stray by the people who were supposed to take care of her."Mister, what would you do if I truly died back there?"…Phoebe, who was in the apartment, had settled down with a sheet mask on her face as she awaited good news from Anya. She thought their plan would work for sure this time, so she was understandably surprised when she received the news of Anya's arrest.'Lucas, Mom, and Dad all knew about Anya's arrest, yet they did nothing about it? Does that mean they've given up on her? Oh no, what should I do?! What should I do?!'She never expected Corinne would fake her death to trick Anya into exposing her true self.Phoebe kept pacing around in circles until the sound of her phone ringing brought her back to the present.

Sunny wiped away his tears with his arm and said chokingly, "But Mom, you should hear all the mean things she said about me, Lucas, Rosie, Francine, and even Jeremy! Not to mention, all the bad things she did over the years."I used to think she was the kindest and sweetest person in the world and that she deserved all the happiness in the world. That was why I hated Corinne so much 'cause she stole Jeremy away from Anya. That was why I kept causing trouble for her."So you can't blame me for saying Anya got what she deserved! She took advantage of our love and trust for her and hurt so many people in the past. She only has herself to blame. Neither I nor you can help her at this point!"I came here to find you to convince you to go along with Grandpa's arrangement. Go live in the summer villa, and take the time to do some self-reflection. You can come back once Grandpa, Grandma, and Dad have cooled down. But you should really give up the idea of getting Anya out. She needs to pay f
