《The Day I Kissed An Older Man》全部章節：第 1401 章 - 第 1410 章

"Do you know how much I suffered when you left me without a trace? I want you to miss me as much as I missed you last time. There's nothing you can do but wait until I'm back to see and touch me," said Jeremy.Corinne frowned. "Stop this nonsense. I'm really going to get angry if you don't accept my video call invitation now."Jeremy chuckled. "Come now. Be a good girl and let me shower in peace. I'm really tired today, and I'd have to put on some clothes if you want to video call. Even if you only see my face… Well, I'd be too shy, and I'm sure you'd be too."Corinne was speechless. However, she did not insist anymore since he said he was tired. Pouting, she said, "Fine. Go take your shower, then. It's not like I must see you. Hmph!"After that, she hung up the phone so that he could shower in peace. She stared at her phone in a daze and could not help but worry about him.However, thinking back to how his tone sounded normal over the phone, she told herself that Jeremy was fine.

Once they arrived at the city hall, Sophia hesitated for a long while before finally taking out her ID card needed for application for marriage revocation.The lawyer Jeremy brought with him liaised with the counter-staff, and the whole process went smoothly.Finally, the counter-staff took back and shredded their marriage certificate, and that was the end of their sham marriage.Tommy wheeled Jeremy out of the city hall.The two of them were about to get into the car sent by the Holdens to go to the airport when Sophia rushed out and said, "Jeremy, why are you leaving? Didn't you promise me to have one last meal together?"Jeremy's heart was not in eating with Sophia. He wanted nothing more than to return home, with his head held high, and tell Corinne that he had solved the problem. He wanted nothing more than to wait with her for the baby to be born.However, as much as he was annoyed with having to eat with Sophia, he could not bear to go back on his promise after seeing how

Corinne pulled up Joey, who was playing with his toys, from the carpeted floor. "Let's put away your toys. We'll have a walk outside the garden," she said.Joey nodded obediently. He put away his toys and ran back toward Corinne to hold her hand. "Auntie Sissy! Walk! Walk!"Corinne got up and was about to take him outside when a servant came in and reported, "Mister Lucas, the Holdens are here.""Who exactly?" asked Lucas with a raised eyebrow. 'It can't be Jeremy since he's abroad.'"It's Miss Francine and her grandmother. They said they're here to see Miss Corinne," answered the servant.Corinne stopped walking when she heard that. She knew the Holdens were not welcome there since there was bad blood between them and the Riveras. It was only because of Corinne that Lucas was willing to put aside his grudge for the time being.Lucas frowned and turned toward Corinne with a look that said he would defer to her on this matter.After thinking about this, she said, "Well, they're a

Francine found it odd, too. "Grandma's right. I can't, for the life of me, figure out why you'd stay with the Riveras, Corinne. Not to mention, the way Lucas sucked up to you. Does he have a crush on you or something? Is he trying to steal you away while you're having a fight with Jeremy?"Alarm bells rang in Pamela's head when she heard Francine say that. She would never sit by and do nothing if Lucas was trying to steal Corinne away from Jeremy."Is that true, Corinne? Does Lucas really have a crush on you?" she asked.Corinne's lips twitched. "Grandma, it isn't what you think it is. Mister Lucas definitely doesn't have a crush on me."At that moment, she still did not want to reveal her connection with the Riveras. Her stay at their house was only a stopgap measure and not because she wanted to accept them as her family.With the misunderstanding between her and Jeremy cleared up, she did not want to risk doing anything that would jeopardize their relationship again. The bad bl

Corinne's eyes immediately dimmed. "Oh. Bring her to the living room to wait for me. And please ask the kitchen to prepare lunch for one more person. She'll probably stay for lunch.""Yes, Miss Corinne," said the servant with a bow before going to do as he was asked.Corinne led Joey back to the living room to meet with Annie. As soon as she entered the living room, she saw Annie dragging a large box toward her."Hey, Corinne!"Corinne looked down at the box before turning back to Annie with a raised eyebrow. "What's this? Did you run away from home?"Annie waved dismissively. "Nope. I've specially prepared this for you, Corinne. Inside, you'll find all the things you'll need for your stay in the hospital. I mean, the baby's going to come out soon, right?"Corinne's lips twitched. She looked at the box, which was way bigger than a 24-inch luggage bag, again and said, "I've got everything I need. There won't be any place in the hospital room to put such a huge box, so please retur
