The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 229
Corinne bet Anya was a wonderful, perfect person to have so many people willingly protect her.She thought for a while and said to Sunny, "I'll give you a solution. Your family is rich too, isn't it? Even if Jeremy pulls his investment from Rosie's family business, your family can invest and help your sister's best friend to get through this difficulty."Sunny looked embarrassed. "I have no say in my family's financial decision yet… My brother makes a clear distinction between public and private interests, and he never likes Rosie, so that's…not going to happen."Feeling apologetic, Corinne said, "Well, there's nothing I can do to help you."Knowing her place, she knew her words did not mean much to Jeremy, and she did not have the right to interfere with his financial decision. Even if Jeremy listened to her, she was not going to be the person to plead for Rosie.It was not her style to help someone who hurt her several times, nearly costing her life in the process. She was a fir

Even after several minutes, Jeremy said nothing in response.Thus, Rosie whimpered, "Jeremy, you're aware of the situation with my family business. If you withdraw your investment, my family business is done for!"Jeremy's tall, distant self stood on the balcony. Expressionlessly, he lit a cigarette and looked down at the distraught-looking Rosie."Holden Group isn't a charity," he remarked flatly. "It's not the first time your family business has been in a downfall. Every year, the investment Holden Group has in your family business has decreased. I've been keeping an eye on them because we've been friends for many years. Today, however, you don't think of me as a friend, and I don't think Holden Group needs to help your family business anymore."Rosie shook her head fearfully and tried to explain herself. "No! That's not it! How can you think that way? When did I do that? We've known each other since we were kids. You're an important friend in my life!"Jeremy glared at her from

Having heard Anya's name in the conversation, Jeremy's indifferent expression finally faltered. After a long pause, he narrowed his eyes and said, "I won't forget that. I'll always fulfill the promise I made to her."Rosie sneered, "Jeremy, it doesn't matter if you don't think of me as your friend anymore, but I hope you'll remember everything Anya did for you. You can't disappoint Anya just because of Corinne. She's a good woman!"After that, Rosie turned around and opened the door to leave.This was when she noticed Corinne was at the door.Corinne was speechless.She thought she heard Jeremy and Rosie talking to each other. Thus, she wanted to rush past the room to avoid having someone think she was eavesdropping.Coincidentally, or maybe it was just bad luck, Rosie opened the door just as she walked slightly past the door.Thus, it looked like she was eavesdropping and did not have the chance to get away quickly enough. No matter how she would explain herself, she still look

Corinne answered indifferently, "Nothing."A dim, complicated light appeared in Jeremy's eyes.Both of them made eye contact, and the ambiance grew awkward.Suddenly, Jeremy frowned and looked to the side to cough, which raised Corinne's concern."Mister, are you sick?"Jeremy looked gloomy when he waved dismissively and said coldly, "I'm fine."Corinne pressed her finger at Jeremy's wrist to feel his pulse. She furrowed her eyebrows.The cave they were in was wet, cold, and humid. Being a gentleman, Jeremy gave his jacket to her before they fell asleep in the cave. It only made sense that Jeremy caught a cold."Mister, you got a cold. Cover yourself with more blankets to sweat it out when you sleep tonight, and you'll be fine tomorrow.""You can tell just by feeling my pulse?" Jeremy looked at Corinne curiously. He recalled Corinne was certain he was poisoned after he mistakenly consumed the food Sherlyn cooked the last time just by feeling his pulse.Corinne nodded. "A litt

Her dream took place when she was a kid.Being sick in her dream, her mother brought her to the hospital. While she had her drip, her mother—having asked if she was hungry—told her she would be right back after buying her a bowl of chicken noodle soup.Before her mother left, she took a good look at Corinne when she was at the door, and her eyes were teary.Her mother's face was blurry in that dream. No matter how hard she tried, she could not see her mother's actual face.After that, Marvin came to the hospital and told her, "I'm your father. Remember that you're a Carew from now on. Do you understand? Now, come with me. I'm bringing you home."She was too young at that time to remember what her last name was. Did she have her mother's last name?All she could remember was her mother gently calling her nickname—'Moonie'. The day she knew her last name was Carew, her name became Luna Carew.When she lived in the convent, Mother Cathrina said her name sounded too cold. 'Luna' mea

"Mph... Mister…! Mmm…"When Corinne finally regained her senses, her instinct kicked in as she shoved Jeremy away from her. She sat up panting and said unhappily, "Mister! What do you think you're doing?"Jeremy did not reply. He turned around sleepily with his eyes closed and steady breathing.Corinne's eyebrows furrowed at this.'Is he sleeping? Did he dream of his beloved woman and get horny, winding up kissing the wrong person in his dream?' she thought.Corinne's lips twitched as she wiped her mouth in disgust and irritation.'Who allowed him to be in my bed?'They had an unspoken rule that one would sleep in the bed while the other would sleep on the couch.If Jeremy did not have a cold today, Corinne would have very well kicked him out of bed.Corinne grumbled with curses, and when she finally regained her composure, she gazed at Jeremy's face.'He's so deeply asleep. Could his cold have worsened?' she thought.Since the light was not on, she could not exactly see Jer

For some reason, Corinne felt embarrassed and stopped mid-stretch. She remembered how Jeremy sneak-attacked her with a kiss and kept kicking the blankets off."Heh. Not so good," she answered.'He probably has no idea the things he did last night because he was sleeping so soundly,' she scoffed.Jeremy narrowed his eyes. "Is that so? When I woke up this morning, I saw you smiling in your sleep. I thought you must be having a good dream."Corinne's face reddened. She grew shy as if he had read her mind.Frankly, she did have a nice dream in the later part of the night.Oddly enough, she managed to fall asleep quickly after she stopped Jeremy from kicking the blankets by sleeping on top of him.She dreamt of delicious food, cute little animals, and funny gag performances. It was an entirely different dream from the nightmare she had before. She was very happy in the second dream."Hey, Mister, did anyone tell you it's rude to stare at people when they're sleeping?""No."Corinn

Annie burst into laughter as she hugged her abdomen, her head raised in laughter. "Was I talking about you? I didn't mention anyone in particular. What makes you think I was talking about you?"Sunny's eyes widened in anger. "You…"Before they could start arguing, Corinne put a stop to it. "Alright. Keep quiet and eat your breakfast. Don't speak when you're eating, or you might choke yourself."Annie nodded obediently and listened to what Corinne said. Sunny, on the other hand, looked at Corinne and snorted proudly before he continued eating his omelet.Meanwhile, Rosie witnessed everything, and evil consumed her eyes. She had no idea what kind of tricks Corinne pulled to mesmerize Jeremy and control Annie, who had always been spoiled. Even Sunny was under her spell and listened to her.The situation was dangerous.Corinne looked pure and naive, but she was a far more powerful adversary than Rosie initially presumed.…The weather was good. The sky was cloudless, and the wind w
