The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 278
Corinne did not say anything. She merely held the man's hand and looked at the man unblinkingly. All she gave him was a look, and it was up to him to decide what to do about it. After two seconds of silence, Jeremy turned his head to Annie and said, "Could you help me bring Miss Anya back to her room, Annie?"Annie was hardly pleased to hear that, but she was well aware of the situation at hand. If she did not go, Corinne would be unhappy because Jeremy would have to go. As Corinne's most loyal supporter, she could never allow such a thing to happen!"Okay, Uncle Jeremy. I'll send Miss Anya back to her ward as politely as I possibly can!" Annie then reluctantly walked up to Anya."Let's go. I'd have to be the one sending you because Uncle Jeremy isn't free right now."Anya's innocent eyes stared straight at Corinne's hand holding Jeremy, and she was stuck in a momentary daze before turning to look at Annie. "Do you know where my ward is, Annie?"Annie did not take it too serious

Corinne smacked her lips and said, "There is a cake I made for myself in the refrigerator at home. Could you please ask Tommy to get it for me? I'm craving it a little right now."Jeremy's expression turned cold. "Is that it?"Corinne nodded. "Yeah. That's it."Jeremy's complexion did not seem too pleased, but he gazed deeply at her and said, "If there's anything you want to ask, you can ask now. I'll tell you everything.""Nope." Corinne looked out the window at the sky and yawned tiredly to avoid looking at the man.She had nothing to ask, and since she was not his true wife, it would be annoying if she asked too many questions.Jeremy stared at her nonchalantly, and his jaw gradually tightened. Had it not been for her pitifully swollen little hands, he wished he could just pick her up and give her a good lesson!Her actions irked him, and he had no choice but to suck it up as he massaged his heavy eyebrows.Then, he pulled Corinne's small swollen gauze-wrapped hand and place

By the time Corinne woke up again, the sky outside the window was already dark.The side effects of the antihistamines injected into her system made her very sleepy, and she slept incredibly deeply at that time. However, her condition soon recovered somewhat, and she was able to sit up on her own.As soon as she sat up, her first instinct was to look around, whereupon she saw the tall figure of a man sitting on the sofa in the ward.She was startled, and when she looked closely, she discovered that it was Jeremy. He was sitting lazily on the sofa with a laptop on his lap. His forehead was supported on his hand, and it seemed that he was focused on some important work matters."You're awake?" His attention was clearly on the laptop, yet he knew that she was awake without even bothering to look up at her.Corinne frowned and asked in surprise, "Why are you still here?"Jeremy glanced at her, reached out for the coffee on the table, and took a sip. "Didn't someone tell me not to lea

'Oh, he didn't sleep a wink because he and Anya had spent the night experiencing the miracles of life!' Corinne remembered.Jeremy frowned when he saw the look of disgust on her face. "Do I disgust you? All men have beards, you know."Corinne came back to her senses, got up from him, and shook her head after moving a little away. "No. You look handsome with a beard."Whether or not he grew a beard had nothing to do with her, so the question of liking or disliking it did not arise."You think I'm handsome, then?" There was a surge of heat in Jeremy's expression, for it was rare to hear her say something nice about him.Corinne remained calm. "Your handsomeness is a fact. My opinion doesn't matter.""Is that why you are so cold toward me?""Am I supposed to be super friendly with you just because you're handsome? There are plenty of handsome men out there, so am I supposed to get close to all of them?"Jeremy's complexion darkened. He dragged her over, sat her down on the sofa wi

Jeremy raised his sharp eyes. "Who's calling?"Corinne felt that Jeremy seemed to have missed the point, so she stuffed the phone into his hand. "Hurry up! Don't let anything happen to her!"Jeremy narrowed his eyes, gazed deeply at her, then placed the phone to his ear.After hearing the call for help, his calm face tensed up suddenly as he stood up and asked in a deep voice, "Where are you? Stay there and don't go anywhere! I'll be there right away!"After ending the call, Jeremy hurried to leave but stopped suddenly and stared at Corinne.Corinne shrugged indifferently. "Go ahead. I'll be fine on my own!"The man had mixed emotions as he frowned and said, "Be good. I'll be back soon." He then rushed off.Corinne froze for a moment, feeling as though she had been transported all those years ago when her mother said the same thing to her at the hospital. "Be good. I'll be back soon."Sadly, her mother never came back....An hour passed, and after Corinne finished her cake,

"Don't be ridiculous! It's obvious that the man's status is unique and that he probably has the same sort of family background that could complement Miss Anya. They made for the perfect pair!"Corinne heard that while she passed slowly by the nurse's station, and she had a good guess of what could have happened. A pervert had stalked Anya, which led her to call Jeremy for help. By the time Jeremy arrived, however, the pervert had run off.The police then came to investigate potential suspects by checking the hospital surveillance footage. The nurses mentioned that Anya was in Ward 302, which did not seem too far away. She should be almost there if she kept walking and took the turn up ahead. Corinne turned the corner and found Ward 302 in no time.The door of the ward was half open, and there were plenty of people inside, including the police. Without getting too close, the angle was just right for her to see what was going on in the ward.Anya leaned against Jeremy's arms in shock

Rosie's eyes lit up when she saw the man who spoke, and her tone became gentle as she said, "Lucas, you're here!"Rosie's sudden lovestruck reaction prompted Corinne to turn around and have a look at who it was.The man behind her was tall and slender. He wore a finely tailored light-gray suit, and there was a touch of warm handsomeness to his expression. His beautiful long eyes were like an artist's portrayal of a charming man, with a hint of estrangement added to his demeanor. He exuded the condescending look of the high-bred member of society, like a god bereft of earthly influence as he stood high above all men.He looked at Corinne when she turned to look at him, and he recognized Corinne immediately. "You?"Corinne also recognized him as the grandson of the blind elderly man from the previous day.Seeing Lucas chatting with Corinne, Rosie panicked and had her guard up as she asked with a smirk, "Do you know Corinne?"Lucas glanced at Rosie insipidly before turning his warm

Amazingly, Corinne left the man stumped with just a few words.Jeremy leaned lazily against the door frame and placed his hands on his belt. There was a gentle sense of pride as he watched his wife gain the upper hand against Lucas. 'That's my girl!'He then walked over and asked, "Why did you come out instead of resting in your ward?"Corinne saw that Jeremy had come out of Ward 302 at some point and was walking toward her, which drew a frown from her as she said unhappily, "I've been sleeping too much and I'm bored, so I thought of coming out to check whether or not you're still alive."Jeremy's expression turned sullen, but he seemed to have gotten used to her ability to irritate people and was not angry as a result.His big rough hands covered the top of her head and massaged her impudently. "Sorry to burst your bubble, but I'm still alive. Were you disappointed?"Corinne dodged the man's touch smoothly by moving a step. She despised having him touch her when his hand had jus

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
