The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 246
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

However, not only was Corinne not embarrassed, but she also nodded frankly. "Well, I am not used to it. I rarely spend money on such insignificant leisure and entertainment. I'm usually pretty frugal with my spending."Rosie chuckled and looked at Corinne with the attitude of an aristocrat looking down on commoners."It doesn't matter. We just have different values, and you'll get used to it gradually. Rich and idle people like us usually have a lot of free time, and there's nothing we need to do by ourselves, so we like to play around and spend money everywhere, spend some money to have some fun."Corinne's expression was brief. "Oh, that sounds nice.""Corinne, you should stay with us to nurture and be immersed in this life from now on," said Rosie, sounding tolerant and accepting. "Otherwise, you'll have different views when you're with Jeremy, who was pampered since childhood, and it'll be difficult for you to live together!"Corinne raised his eyebrows. "Is that so? Well, he

Jeremy walked in slowly and tossed the phone back to Sunny.The man's eyes were fixated on Corinne. He walked up to her, and as if caring for his child, he raised his hand to tuck her hair behind her ear. "Even if we have different views, we can seek the common ground while reserving differences.”Corinne was startled.'Seeking common ground while reserving differences'?It sounded rather daunting to hear such words from the mouth of this cold-blooded, indifferent man.After regaining her senses, Corinne's lips unconsciously twitched. Did he hear what she said earlier? Was he angry?Rosie, too, was shocked to have heard how Jeremy described his relationship with Corinne. It was hard for her to accept it, but she did not dare to show it.She could only explain with a sheepish smile, "Jeremy, I was just joking with Corinne!"Jeremy slightly turned his slender body and stood beside Corinne in a serious manner, looking at Rosie darkly. "Inappropriate jokes aren't funny."Rosie's s

What was this? Did this little rascal just recall bidding him farewell?Corinne turned and smiled at Rosie. "Sorry to make you spend a grand, Miss Rosie, and I almost forgot to say goodbye to you, too."Jeremy's face sank.Rosie was stunned for a moment, feeling that Corinne's words had an ominous undertone to them, but she could only respond with a smile as all eyes were on them. "Oh, you're too polite, Corinne!"Corinne smiled, walked toward her, and returned Rosie's 'warm' hug before she whispered in her ear, "I just forgot to clarify with Miss Rosie that I never urged Jeremy to divest, and I didn't even know that he invested in your family. You just provoked me, is all."If I ever wanted to seek revenge, I'll do it myself, and I'll never punish you by provoking your friendship with Jeremy. If I do it myself, it'll be worse than what he would've done. I don't cause trouble, but I'm not afraid of it either."If you dare to challenge me again, I'll kill you."Rosie felt a chill

Jeremy glanced at Sunny. He stared at Corinne, whose back faced them as she stood outside the suite door not too far away, and merely replied, "Nothing."Sunny sighed despondently. "My sister always said that she'll be back soon, but she hasn't come back after so long! These days when my sister isn't at home, no one looks after me and instead belittles me…especially my brother. When he sees me, he criticizes me and bullies me all day long!""If you want to know when she'll return, call her yourself and ask.""Forget it. It's better for Anya to rest and to recuperate abroad, and I don't want to put pressure on her."Jeremy closed his eyes, his gaze indifferent. "Since Rosie's foot is fine, you should look after her on your sister's behalf and send her home safely."Sunny nodded obediently. "Alright, I understand. Jeremy, where are you going?"Jeremy was walking away as he replied, "I have something to do at home, so I'll be taking my leave now."Seeing that Jeremy was about to le

Only Annie would speak a few words with Tommy from time to ease the awkward, cold atmosphere.…The car arrived at the Levine family mansion, and because Annie was sitting in the middle, Corinne consciously got out of the car to make way for her.Annie got out of the car and asked Corinne and Jeremy if they wanted to head inside for a moment and sit. Both of them declined the invitation unanimously.The difference was only that Jeremy refused directly, and Corinne was a little more hesitant.Annie had no choice but to reluctantly say goodbye to Corinne before she obediently walked back into her home.Corinne got into the car again, still seated near the window as she put on her earphones and continued to close her eyes and rest.The man finally spoke and asked her in a calm tone, "What are you listening to?"Corinne closed her eyes and simply answered, "A song.""What song is it?""A pop song.""..." Jeremy's eyes darkened, his jaw tightened, and he stopped talking.Corinne

The little rascal's tone was not friendly at all. She was not in a good mood, no doubt.What happened to Corinne?Jeremy's eyebrows sank slightly. "Okay, but what are you throwing at me?"Corinne spread her hands. "Mister, I'm not throwing a temper tantrum. I just think that when no one else is present, we don't need to act as a husband and wife, nor do we need to cultivate a relationship. Men and women are different, and we should consciously keep a distance."After all, Anya, Jeremy's true love, was coming back, and it seemed that the man had not moved on from her, too.Corinne was not interested in meddling in other people's affairs. Even if she was misunderstood as a mistress, she would never actually stoop to being one.For instance, Sunny and Rosie saw her as such, so they would trouble her repeatedly.As for what happened that fateful night a few days ago, she had to give him a little hand because he was poisoned. She would erase that memory and seal it forever as if it n

Jeremy cleared his throat after being told off by his niece. "If you can easily see something, why do you need to say it formally?"Annie said affirmatively, "Hey, it's very necessary! We girls hate ambiguous relationships the most! If you don't express your intentions but still make intimate gestures to others, girls will feel that it's irresponsible teasing and feel as if we're not respected, so of course we'll be angry!"Jeremy hesitated slightly. "She's already angry. What should I do?"Annie was stunned. Was Jeremy…actually asking her for a solution?This was a first; her all-powerful uncle had never done this before, and she felt a sense of importance."Duh, you have to make up for it as much as possible! Pick a suitable time, formally express your heart to the other party, let her know that she's the one you're dead set on, and give her enough sense of security! Pay attention! There must be a sense of ceremony! Let me emphasize this, there must be a sense of ceremony! There

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
