Semua Bab The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Bab 701 - Bab 710

A few officers recognized the prominent figure of the Holden family and became uneasy. "Well... Mister Jeremy, please don't make our job difficult. We're just following the procedures..."The man snorted, his ink-black eyebrows dangerously raised. "Following procedures? Just based on the one-sided words of the Riveras, you want to take my wife as a murder suspect? Is there an arrest warrant?"What? This girl named Corinne was actually Mister Jeremy's wife?!The officers were officially stumped.When they saw this girl standing beside Mister Jeremy, they thought she was just a new lover he happened to bring along. They never expected her to be his legitimate wife!They could not afford to offend her. Should Miss Corinne truly be innocent, not only would their fate be at stake, but even their department could not bear the consequences!Lucas could sense that the police were wary of the Holdens. His brow furrowed as he stepped forward, saying, "Jeremy, the police only want to take C

Lucas felt like the girl before him, the same one he watched growing up, was very unfamiliar. There were some things he did not want to dwell on anymore. He took a deep breath and said, "I hope you're not lying to me, Anya."Not probing further, Anya breathed a sigh of relief, but she still felt uneasy. It seemed like her brother was very disappointed in her, as if he did not trust her anymore.Lucas felt exhausted after all the commotion. He no longer looked at his sister and turned to Jeremy and Corinne, saying, "Jeremy, you can leave now. Thankfully, Joey is fine. Let's consider today's incident wrapped up."Jeremy sneered, "Wrapped up? You say it so easily. You've treated my wife like a murderer for so long, and you now want to let it go?"Lucas frowned. "I just don't want to pursue it anymore. It doesn't mean that Corinne is completely innocent! Jeremy, are you not willing to back down at all?"A hint of irony appeared in Jeremy's eyes. "I know what kind of person you are, Lu

Jeremy held Corinne's hand and led her slowly toward the door. Just as they stepped out of the kitchen, a cane swung through the air, clearly aimed at Corinne!Jeremy reacted quickly, intercepting the cane and shielding the girl behind him. When he looked closely, it turned out to be Cedric Rivera.Jeremy furrowed his eyebrows. "And what does Mister Cedric want to do?"Lucas, too, showed surprise. "Grandpa?"Ignoring them, Cedric stared fixedly at Corinne with a weathered, sharp gaze. He pulled his cane from Jeremy's grip and pointed it at Corinne. "Were you the one speaking just now?"Corinne was also startled with a hint of confusion on her face. Why did the Riveras react so dramatically one after another?She regained her composure and nodded. "Yes, I was the one speaking. Is something wrong?"Cedric trembled, his gaze intense and piercing. He scrutinized Corinne from head to toe with an enigmatic air. "Young girl, have we met somewhere before?"Facing the old man's question

Instead of turning his attention to Lucas, Cedric simply smiled and asked Corinne, "Corinne, how old are you?"Corinne took a sip of tea before answering, "I'll be twenty this year.""Twenty? Why, that's perfect!" Cedric nodded satisfactorily before his expression became solemn. "If I guess correctly, you're probably still single, right? Well, it's a good thing I know an excellent guy who's still single too. Do you want me to introduce him to you?"Corinne smiled and said, "I…""There's no need to be shy, child! It's best for a woman to get hitched as soon as possible 'cause otherwise all the good men will be taken and all that's left will be crooks and sc*ms!" added Cedric.Jeremy frowned when he heard this. He took a sip of tea before sneaking a peek at Corinne.The corner of Corinne's mouth started twitching. She never expected the reason Cedric asked her to stay was so he could set her up with a guy. Cedric seemed to be on a roll as he started selling the good points of the g

"Oh come on, I've been alive longer than anyone here and have met countless people so don't you think it'll be easy for me to tell what a person is like with just one glance? Besides, who are you to judge her? Have you ever wondered why I never thought of setting you up with her? Well, it's because you're not worthy of her at all!"Lucas' eyebrow shot up. "How am I not worthy of her?"Instead of looking at Lucas in a grandfatherly manner, Cedric revealed a face riddled with disgust. "As your grandfather, I know how devious you are despite the gentlemanly image you try to portray! Even if I set you up with the best girl in town, you'll only come to treat her like she's a worthless piece of trash so it'll be a grave sin for me to set you up with Corinne.Unlike Eddy, who's a good kid even though he's a late bloomer and a little too obsessed with his music. Corinne will definitely end up happy if they're together. Such a shame though… How did a good girl like her end up with that son o
