บททั้งหมดของ The Day I Kissed An Older Man: บทที่ 531 - บทที่ 540

It had not been a few days since the last similar incident happened and now Corinne had to go through it again? She looked contemptuously at Anya, hating her with every fiber of her being.'There's no limit to how shameless this woman can be! How can she still think of herself when her child is hurt!'Although she did not like Anya, it did not mean she would pass on that hate to her innocent child. 'That poor kid must be in a lot of pain/ He probably doesn't understand why it's hurting so much either.'Instead of calling out on Anya's lies, Corinne quickly called for an ambulance. After giving the operator the address, she hung up the phone, and only then did she say, "The waiter was the one who accidentally tripped, causing the soup to splash all over your kid. I tried to catch the bowl but I was too late. After that, the waiter legged out of the room 'cause he was afraid of what was going to happen to him."Anya looked at her in disbelief. "Corinne, how can you lie like that? I s

Although Corinne only pushed Anya lightly, the latter acted as if the former pushed her very hard. Anya staggered back exaggeratedly and pretended to fall. Her plan worked! She wanted Corinne to raise her hand against her to make it more believable that Corinne would do something as insidious as harming Joey.A hand reached out to grab her just when she was about to fall to the ground. Anya thought it was Jeremy who saved her, which made her secretly happy. However, when she looked up, she discovered it was Lucas who saved her.Lucas put his arm protectively around Anya after he righted her up. He then glared coldly at Corinne and said, "I dare you to push her again.""I didn't push her. I just flung her hand away from my body," said Corinne.Lucas frowned. "I saw everything so there's no use of you denying it!"Corinne was speechless. 'How can he know what happened when he wasn't even here, to begin with? He must be making things up.'Anya was a little disappointed that it was n

In any case, Corinne might as well apply the ointment on her burn wounds since Jeremy so kindly gave it to her."Thanks," said Corinne coolly. She decided to forgo delving into how Jeremy knew her hand was burned.While opening and packaging and applying the ointment on her throbbing hand, she said, "In any case, "The bottom line is I didn't hurt that kid. It was the waiter who accidentally threw the hot soup on him."At that moment, Jeremy's eyes seemed to have lost their focus. He looked at her through the haze of cigarette smoke and asked emotionlessly, "Did I ask you that?"Corinne frowned. "Then why did you ask me to follow you here? Don't tell me you did that just to give me this ointment."Jeremy did not answer her. He narrowed his eyes and fixed his gaze on the sparkling diamond ring on her ring finger. "Miss Carew, why are you still wearing the wedding ring my family gave you when you're remarried to another man?"Corinne was speechless. She thought it was not accurate f

Anya was unsettled by the way Jeremy's eyes were boring into her so she started sobbing to cover up her guilt. Her eyes immediately turned red and tears after tears rolled down her cheeks.At that moment, Lucas came back into the ward after finishing up his calls. As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Anya — who he never raised his voice to once in his life — being questioned by Jeremy in an unkind manner and making her cry.Enraged, Lucas quickly strode over to where Anya was and put his arms protectively around her."Jeremy, what did you mean by what you just said? Are you saying that Anya would frame Corinne for something she didn't do?"Jeremy's expression remained indifferent. He looked straight into Lucas' eyes and said, "What I'm trying to say is maybe Anya saw the whole thing wrongly."Anya collapsed against Lucas and shook her head woefully."No! I didn't see it wrongly/ It was Corinne who poured the hot soup over Joey's face. Jeremy, did she say something to you ju

"Corinne, you should know that you won't be able to get away with what you've done once everyone sees what happened in the surveillance footage. Lucas will sue you for hurting Joey. I'm giving you a chance to turn over a new leaf 'cause after all that's said and done, you've helped Jeremy with his family before and I see you as a friend so I would advise you to take the olive branch while it's still being offered to you!"The way she spoke was so righteous and affectionate that those not in the know might think Anya was nothing but a kind-hearted and forgiving little angel.However, Corinne saw through her. She smirked and said, "Miss Anya, your kind gesture is noted. However, I'm the type who's willing to pay for my own mistake so if the surveillance footage showed what you said I did, then I would turn myself into the police station and sit out my prison terms no matter how many years it's going to be."Anya glared at her and inwardly gritted her teeth. However, as the "victim", s
