The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 239
There was a moon motif in Jeremy's horse's name. Was that moon referring to the apple of his eye, Luna Rivera?Chasing the moon, and chasing the apple of his eye…Jeremy leaned forward to her ear and asked when he noticed Corinne was zoning out, "What's wrong?"Corinne regained her senses and stroked the horse's mane. "Nothing. This is a good horse.""You like to ride horses?""Yeah. It's not bad," Corinne replied.Suddenly, Jeremy placed his hand on her waist and whispered into her ear, "You didn't have fun this time. We can come here by ourselves in the future."Corinne was stunned. 'Is he confused or something? There are only two months left in the contract, and there won't be any 'us' afterward.'He then grabbed her waist as though checking the quality of a product. He then teased, "Why are you so thin when you always eat a lot?"Corinne was displeased to have heard this. "I don't care."Jeremy chuckled. "Eat more. It's nicer to touch if you're fleshier."Corinne blushed

Jeremy did not hesitate as he took the phone from Sunny. He turned and walked out of the room to talk on the phone.Corinne looked back and watched as he walked out. She raised her brow while thinking of something.Zeke, who had gone out to contact the hospital, came in and informed everyone, "Don't worry, the hospital is sending an ambulance over. Rosie will receive treatment soon."Sunny looked worried as he gazed at the unconscious Rosie. "Rosie, did you hear that? The ambulance is going to be here soon. It's going to be fine!"However, there was no reaction from Rosie.The doctor went over to check Rosie's condition and massaged her temple. Only then did she wake up with a grimace.Although she was awake, she looked weak and despairing as if she had lost her desire to live. "My leg is done for. Why are you guys trying to save me? Just let me die…""Rosie, don't think like that," consoled Sunny. "You're my sister's best friend! She's going to be sad seeing you like this."Ro

'Is he still talking on the phone with the apple of his eye?' Corinne knew who Jeremy had received instructions from, since there could not have been anyone else aside from Anya. Postponing the divestment from the Suttons for further observation was undoubtedly done out of courtesy toward her.It made sense and should not come as a surprise.Corinne thought for a moment and said to Tommy, "I'll go with you, but could you wait a moment for me, please?"'Wait? For what?' Tommy looked puzzled. "May I ask how long and what for, ma'am?"Corinne had a calm look on her face as she replied, "Until I settle things with Rosie."Tommy was even more puzzled. He frowned and had a bad feeling, but as soon as he was about to ask in more detail, Corinne walked toward Rosie who was half-lying on the bed in an injured state.As soon as Corinne approached them, Sunny stood up defensively in front of Rosie to stop her from going any nearer. He asked her, "What are you trying to do to Rosie?"Corinn

Corinne looked at Rosie's injured foot and said, "In my opinion, her foot injury isn't a torn ligament but a sprain that resulted in a misaligned bone. I happen to know a bit of bone-setting techniques that would avoid the need for surgery. Would you like to try restoring your foot to its original state without going under the knife?"Rosie sobbed and looked at Corinne. "Not a torn ligament? Stop talking nonsense, Corinne! Do you think the doctor's diagnosis is wrong? Do you honestly expect me to believe the words of a layman rather than a doctor? This is ridiculous!"Corinne did not explain much and took a few steps toward the end of the bed to reach out and touch Rosie's injured ankle. Rosie immediately moved her leg away to prevent Corinne from touching her, and that movement was painful enough that she was sweating from the agony. She warned weakly, "Don't touch me! Come and stop her, Sunny!"Sunny snapped back to her senses and immediately came over to stop her. "Rosie's alread

Sunny walked over, picked up the black furry lump on the bed, and realized that it was a rather disgusting-looking fake mouse. "It's fine, Rosie! This is fake."'What kind of sick hobbies does Corinne have? I can't believe she carries this sort of thing with her, and she still has the mood to play pranks at such a time! Why would she use that to scare Rosie when Rosie's foot had gotten numb? Wait a minute... Did Rosie just jump out of bed?!' Sunny snapped back to his senses and looked at Rosie in shock. "Rosie! Your foot… Is it alright now?"Rosie's expression froze, and her mind went blank too. That was when she finally realized that she was standing perfectly fine without any help, and she even jumped up seemingly painlessly earlier!'D*mn it! I jumped off the bed too swiftly because of that fake mouse, and there's no way I can keep the charade up anymore!'The embarrassment and guilty conscience on Rosie's face disappeared, and she immediately feigned a look of pleasant surprise

At that moment, Zeke walked over with a smile, looking at the two of them and saying, "What are you two girls whispering about while you're hugging?"Only then did Rosie let go of Corinne, turned her face, and smiled gently at Zeke."Zeke, I was thanking Corinne for curing my foot, but I was so excited that I couldn't express it, so I just hugged her and didn't want to let go!"As she said this, Rosie looked at Corinne, pretending to be apologetic as she asked hypocritically, "Corinne, I didn't scare you, did I?""No."Corinne's expression was calm, and she raised her hand to pat the folds on her shoulders when Rosie hugged her as if a fly landed on her shoulders.Zeke also looked at Corinne and said with a smile, "I didn't expect my new kin to be so slick at such a young age. Who did you learn your neat skill from?"When Rosie heard how Zeke addressed Corinne so affectionately and even praised her, she felt very upset and gritted her teeth secretly.Without waiting for Corinne

Did Zeke…actually mentioned spanking?!Corinne frowned in disgust and pulled the corners of her mouth. "... Lame!"At this moment, Rosie had finished her call with the doctor and turned to see Zeke and Corinne standing together, talking and laughing. They looked harmonious and genial, like old friends who had known each other for many years.This intensified her rejection of Corinne in her heart, and her gaze hardened.Although Zeke was usually talkative and playful, he was not as casual with just anyone. In fact, Zeke disliked joking with most of those he deemed insignificant, instead opting for a vicious mouth and concise words.For Corinne to have made Zeke joke with her so enthusiastically…showed that Zeke truly regarded her like kin, a sister.This was not right!If Zeke regarded Corinne as a sister, who was Anya to him?Rosie's mind raced as she plotted ways to manipulate Corinne and make everyone hate her when all of a sudden, light knocks were heard on the door of the s

The stupefied Rosie stared at Corinne with a bit of contempt in her eyes. "So it was you, Corinne! Are you doing this because you'll be here for three days in the next month and want to invite everyone over again?"Corinne nodded. "That's right. It's my treat."Rosie laughed sarcastically. "That doesn't make sense, now does it? Why would you ask me to pay for what you're supposed to be 'treating'? That's odd."Corinne remained calm and was undeterred."Miss Rosie, did you forget something? You promised yesterday that as long as I can prove that I didn't put that ear stud in your shoe, you'd pay for all the expenses for everyone that day. What's wrong? Is Miss Rosie not willing to pay the bill now? Don't you want to fulfill what you promised?""Uh..." Rosie was flabbergasted by this.She forgot about that!However, when she promised to pay the bill, she estimated that the consumption of their group would be within a thousand dollars at most.All of a sudden, it raked up to 1800

Sherman could not help but feel fearful when he recalled the incident.Rita gently smoothed his furrowed brow. "I knew you'd come to rescue me, just like all the times you did. I love you, Sherman."Previously, Rita confessed her love to him when she was groggy. At this moment, however, she was clearly awake, even sporting a faint smile on her face as she confessed.Sherman immediately blushed. "I love you, too."Rita did not stay long in the hospital; she quickly returned to the Parr family's mansion. Just as Sherman's grandparents had said, Rita did not have any major injuries, so there was no need for her to stay in the hospital that long. In fact, she might even recover faster emotionally under the care at home.Not once did Sherman bring up Rita's job, but she surprisingly resigned from New Capital Times on her own accord. It would be difficult for her to investigate cases with her current condition; not to mention Sherman had handed over the evidence to the police. The polic

"Sherman, I like you. I love you," Rita finally confessed.Sherman, deeply pained, pulled Rita into his arms. "This is all my fault. I should've looked for you quicker. I've never blamed you. All I want is to see you smile. It's enough for me as long as you're willing to let me stay by your side."You don't have to confess to me. I know it's hard for you to do that because of your family. I've seen the way they've treated you, and…"The bodyguards who had barged in with Sherman felt a bit awkward to see their company president in tears. However, the priority was to get Rita to the hospital for a check-up. Being tied up for hours could cause circulation issues, and it could be dangerous if her limbs did not regain feelings soon.In the end, they got the bravest among them to convince Sherman to let them take Rita to the hospital. Instead of letting them do it, Sherman wiped away his tears and, with ease, lifted Rita as if she was as light as a feather.Fortunately, after the hospit

With that, Karen left without looking back. She was carrying Vince's baby in her womb, so how could she pin all her hopes on Sadie? Since Sadie was obviously unruly, she would have to rely on her son.'Sadie can spend the rest of her life with Esmond since she likes him so much. God knows it had been exhausting enough to raise her. Plus, it's only fair for Esmond to take care of her since I've done my part taking care of her until now,' thought Karen.Meanwhile, the only consolation for Sherman was that Esmond did not try to put up a fight. It seemed that he still cared about his daughter Sadie.Sherman led his men to a dilapidated house. Esmond had been cautious enough to choose a rundown house situated at the end of a village.When Sherman barged in, he found Rita lying on the floor while Esmond's men ignored her. Esmond's men had followed his orders, and since he did not instruct them to do anything to Rita, they left her well alone.Before the men could react, they were surrou

Karen cried and silently knelt by Sadie's side without trying to defend herself. Sadie, on the other hand, feebly tried to explain herself. Alas. Vince refused to listen.There had been many occasions before when he had chosen to believe Karen and Sadie, but at this moment, he realized he had been terribly wrong to do that.Rita used to be so kind, understanding, and well-behaved. However, ever since Karen and Sadie moved in, Vince felt like his daughter had become manipulative, always trying to compete for attention, and stirring up jealousy in front of him.Unfortunately, it took Rita's disappearance to make Vince realize that Rita was not trying to compete for attention. All Rita wanted from him was to treat her the same as Sadie.Vince used to think that Rita should give in to Sadie more since Sadie was younger, too."Why don't you go live with your biological father since you prefer him so much? I never want to see you show your face around here anymore! As for your mother, s

Sadie was so anxious that she wanted to jump out. "Mom, don't tell me you fell for it! Why did you call Esmond? Now they all know where Rita is. You've ruined everything, again! What were you thinking?"Karen could not care less. She cried and slapped Sadie. "You nearly scared me to death! What would I do if something happened to you? I didn't raise you just to watch you die. I told you not to meet up with Esmond, so why did you secretly meet up with him? How can you ask him to get rid of Rita?"Are you out of your mind? All I want is for us to live out the rest of our lives peacefully, so why didn't you listen to me?!"Sadie was furious. Karen had stopped trying to get rid of Rita ever since she got pregnant, so how could Sadie not be angry? Rita was like a thorn in her side, and Sadie would never be happy unless Rita was dead."Don't you know I like Sherman? How could you ask me to do nothing when Rita has stolen him from me?! I was the one who liked him first. It's either Rita g
The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 2933
Karen wanted so badly to slap Esmond through the phone.'What good are his pompous words now? We wouldn't be in this mess now if he hadn't hit me back then! What's more, he's saying he's doing this for Sadie. But has he ever thought of what would happen to me and Sadie if he got rid of Rita? Rita's the heiress of the Russell family. Not to mention, she's married to Sherman, so that makes her owner of Parr Group too! What makes Esmond think he can get rid of Rita so easily?'Karen's breath was ragged as she said, "If you don't believe me, just listen to your daughter's screams. I can't save her now; you will literally decide her fate! Plus, I'm pregnant with Vince's baby, so even if I lose Sadie, I still have a kid—which is more than what I can say about you!"Sherman could not help but be impressed by Karen a little. Even in this dire situation, she did not forget to express her heartfelt feelings to Vince, letting him know that she was always on his side. It was certainly not an ea

"Sherman raised an eyebrow. "Don't worry, I'm sure it's just a minor injury, maybe just a finger. There shouldn't be any major issues. A sprained joint takes only a hundred days to heal, and it might take her even less time to heal if you take very good care of her while she's recuperating."Karen's heart ached upon hearing that. She lunged toward Sherman, wanting to hit him, but the bodyguards stopped her before she could get close.Vince, still worried, held Karen tightly beside him. "Calm down. I'm sure Sadie will come out unharmed if Rita's kidnapping has nothing to do with her. But if it does, then you should know very well that…"Vince's voice dropped an octave. He could not believe his daughter's disappearance had anything to do with his stepdaughter. However, he was not utterly naive.He continued, "How could a girl like her take Rita away? Even the car window was smashed. Others must've been involved. Does her biological father have anything to do with it?"Sherman nodded
The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 2931
"Yes, it's true I met up with my biological father, but it was just a one-time thing. I don't want to go back to him at all! Otherwise, I would've done it ages ago. Dad, I'm really grateful to you for taking me in and looking after me all these years. That's why I feel like you're my real father, even more real than those who share the same blood."How could you unjustly accuse me and Mom like that? Sherman is the one spouting nonsense here. He's trying to push all the blame onto us. Dad, you have to wake up and see the truth!"Karen nodded along, but her heart was racing. 'When did Sadie meet Esmond? How did Sherman know when I don't even know? Seems like Sadie does have something to do with Rita's kidnapping. I have to settle things and get Sherman out of here.'Karen never had the thought of rekindling her relationship with Esmond. The only thing she wanted then was to peacefully give birth to her son. Everything in the Russell family would eventually go to her son, and she would

Sherman detested people pointing their fingers at him when they spoke. He stood up slowly, towering over Vince instantly."You claim to be Rita's father, yet if I were you, I'd choose to shut up and stand aside. I can't believe you're scolding me for threatening Sadie when she's not even your real daughter!"Look at her guilty expression; it's clear she's involved. If you don't believe me, use your brain a little. No wonder Russell Group is declining under your leadership. It's only a matter of time before the company goes completely bankrupt!"Sherman showed no mercy, causing Vince to retreat with every word. Vince clutched his chest, struggling for breath.Karen, despite her weakness, stepped forward to support him. "How could you speak to your father-in-law like this? What has Sadie done to offend you? She has nothing but admiration for you. Plus, she's just a child. How could you treat her like this?"She went on and on, but Sherman stood his ground. Meanwhile, the burly bodyg
