Semua Bab The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Bab 1741 - Bab 1750

Jason did not persuade Corinne any further after hearing her protest. He shrugged, pulled out a chair, and sat opposite her. "Sigh! You always give me a hard time."After Corinne flipped through the menu and ordered what she wanted to eat, she handed the menu to him and said, "Quit your nonsense and decide what to order! Let's wrap this up as soon as possible. I'll be busy later."Jason took the menu and sighed again. He ordered some extra dishes before handing the menu to the wait staff. "Why do you have to be so careful around me when all we're doing is having a meal? Even my suggestion of dining in a private room seemed to have rubbed you the wrong way. It's not like I'm asking you to come with me to a hotel room."Corinne, who was busy typing a message on her cellphone, paused for a moment and glanced at him. "Other people could easily get the wrong idea if they spot a man and a woman having a meal in a private room. Since we're here to talk business, we could save each other th

Corinne came in and looked at Matt, who was shielded by his parents. Matt was in the same class as Joey, and Corinne had met him before while fetching Joey from class. Though they were of the same age, Matt was taller than Joey and appeared to be much stronger. It did not make sense for Joey to beat Matt up, but it was clear that both children were visibly injured.Corinne turned to Matt's parents and said, "I've just arrived, and I don't know the full details of the situation yet. Give me a moment to talk to my son."She then walked toward Joey who stood alone in the corner. Matt's parents were not happy, and they exchanged disapproving glances at each other while directing their concerns to the principal.Matt's father voiced his discontent. "What kind of attitude is that? Her son bullied our son, but rather than getting her son to apologize, she wanted to talk to him instead. What's the point of that? Her son isn't injured!""Exactly!" Matt's mother said in support. "Don't you i

Matt's mother supported her husband. "Yes!"Corinne smirked and turned to the principal. "We should review the surveillance footage before coming to a decision. May I know where I can access that footage?"The principal glanced embarrassedly at Corinne, and then at Matt's parents. "I..."Matt's father snorted. "Just show us the surveillance footage, then! I'm appalled at her claims that our children were fighting when her boy was completely unharmed. Let's see if she'll come up with some other excuse after watching the footage."Seeing as both sides had agreed to check the surveillance footage, he escorted them to the surveillance room together.Matt had been crying anxiously in his mother's arms, and he timidly reached out to tug at the hem of his father's clothes when he heard that his father was going to see the surveillance recordings.Thinking that Matt was still traumatized by what happened, the man patted his son's head and comforted him, "Don't be afraid, Matt. We'll get

The couple was a little speechless after hearing Corinne's retort and could only exchange glances with each other. The man, however, appeared unwilling to come to terms with the truth. He clenched his jaw and gritted his teeth, saying, "Whatever the reasons were, your son beat up my son. He needs to apologize and take responsibility for that. If he doesn't do so, I'll make sure he'll be expelled from this kindergarten, and I swear I'll make it difficult for you to survive here in the city."The distressed mother caressed Matt's bruised nose and swollen eyes, adding, "That's right! My son has never experienced this sort of injustice. And besides, he was just being a little mischievous when he teased his female classmate. What gives you your son the right to be nosy?"The principal was caught in a dilemma and felt that the couple was being unreasonable. However, he was hesitant to offend them because they came from a rather influential and affluent background. Corinne, on the other han

Corinne interrupted Christine and warned, "Stop that nonsense!"Christine pouted. She genuinely felt that Joey was a little distant from them.Corinne looked out the window and said, "Joey's hiding in the slide over there. Could you bring him here, Bryan? Tell him that we're going to the amusement park.""Okay!" Bryan immediately did as Corinne told him. The prospect of going to the amusement park excited him.Corinne followed slowly while carrying Christine in her arms. She could only continue to wonder where the rumors in the kindergarten originated from.Bryan climbed into the little mushroom hut and found Joey inside. "Joey! Mommy came to pick us up! She says she'll take us to the amusement park! Let's go!"Joey glanced at Bryan and shook his head sullenly. "No thanks. You guys go ahead."Bryan frowned in frustration. "But you love the merry-go-round! Don't you want to come with us? Let's play together!"Joey curled up and buried his head in his knees. "No. I don't want to
