The Day I Kissed An Older Man Chapter 285
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

In the quiet hospital corridors, Corinne could be seen hurriedly striding past the nurses' station as she made her way to her ward with Jeremy following closely behind her.Witnessing this, the nurses began to whisper excitedly between themselves."That's him! That's him! That man is Miss Anya's boyfriend!""Oh my god! He's so handsome!""But why is he chasing after another girl right now instead of being with Miss Anya in Room 302?""Please don't tell me the three of them are involved in a love triangle!"A frown immediately appeared on Corinne's face when she overheard what the nurses said. Annoyed, she sped up her pace.She turned to close her door once she was back in her ward, but Jeremy quickly blocked the door from closing with his hand. "What is the matter with you?" asked Jeremy through the gap."You shouldn't come in, Mister," said Corinne as she struggled to close the door."Give me a good reason why I shouldn't go in," demanded Jeremy with a darkened face.Corinne

"I didn't want to give the nurses something to gossip about nor do I want to be involved in a love triangle with you and Miss Anya. I can't think of anyone who'd be happy to have fingers being pointed at her and be called a mistress."Jeremy understood where she was coming from, but that only served to fuel his displeasure even more. "Corinne, aren't you going to at least ask me what happened? Things are not as you believed, okay?"Corinne was calm. "I don't feel like there's a need to ask, and there's no need for you to explain yourself to me either. This isn't like you. Others might think that you like me…"Jeremy narrowed his eyes. Suddenly, he grabbed her jaw with his big hands and forcefully twisted her face to the side so that she had no choice but to look at him. "There's no one here but us. Who are these others you speak of?"Corinne was speechless.Jeremy grabbed a few tissues and lightly wiped off some of the soup from Corinne's lips. "Well, go on and say it. Who are the

'What illegal activities?' thought Corinne puzzledly. It was obvious she was confused by the expression on her face.Jeremy came over and asked in a low voice, "Which case are you referring to?"It was only then the police officers noticed Jeremy was also in the room. They were a little caught off guard by that."Mister Jeremy, do you know Miss Corinne?""Yes. What business do you have with her?" questioned Jeremy seriously.Anya—who was standing next to Jeremy—recalled the terrible ordeal she experienced last night when she saw the police officers. Instinctively, she leaned on Jeremy for support, as she exclaimed anxiously, "Mister police, what case is Corinne involved in? Is there a possibility that you might've gotten the wrong person? She's a good person, I tell you."The police officers were even more thrown off to see Anya. "Miss Anya, you're here, too! So both of you know Miss Corinne."Considering the victim and her 'family' had a right to know, the police officers decid

"Corinne, I really wanted to be your friend. I even brought some homemade soup to share with you, so why did you want to hurt me like that? What did I ever do to you that you wish to hurt me so badly?""You didn't do anything to me. You've only been back for two days, so there was no way you could've done anything to me," said Corinne calmly and with a smirk on her face. She wondered if Anya would be able to read between the lines.Anya returned home two days ago, while Corinne had been hospitalized since yesterday morning due to her suffering from a severe allergic reaction. All throughout her stay, Annie and Jeremy had been by her side, so there was no time for her to hatch some devious plan even if she wanted to hurt Anya.Besides, there was also the fact that no one even knew when Anya would return until yesterday. The plan would not have worked unless Corinne had the psychic ability to predict the future. More importantly, Corinne did not even know who Anya was until yesterday.

Jeremy was unhappy about the turn of events but decided to keep his mouth shut and respect Corinne's wishes since she agreed to it. Thus, that was how both of Corinne's hands were put into handcuffs.Other than that, the bureau even sent someone to keep a watch over her from outside the door, which meant her freedom was temporarily restricted. However, they did not immediately interrogate her as she still needed to undergo a few more rounds of IV drips.Out of humanity, the police officers listened to the doctor's advice and agreed to let her rest after she had completed her IV drip. There would be plenty of time for them to conduct an interrogation after she had finished resting.Corinne ate the breakfast that Jeremy sent someone to buy for her and soon drifted off to a peaceful slumber as she waited for the IV drip to finish. She was ready to be interrogated once it was noontime.According to the rules, only personnel involved in the case were allowed to be present during an inte

"She didn't do it," interjected Jeremy before Anya could finish her nonsensical sentence.Anya was saddened by this. "Jeremy, do you trust her that much? You've only known her for a month plus…""We're husband and wife. That should be reason enough for me to trust her," said Jeremy mindlessly, not getting what Anya was hinting at as all of his attention was focused on the situation inside Corinne's ward.'Husband and wife…' Those three little words caused Anya's face to stiffen, but she quickly put on an innocent smile. "You're right. There must be a misunderstanding. Corinne is a good person, after all."…Rosie and Sunny strode out of the elevator."Jeremy, we rushed here as soon as we heard!" exclaimed Rosie angrily. "Corinne has done it this time. How can she be so evil as to hire someone to assault Anya when she hasn't even done anything to her? Heck, Anya has only been back for a couple of days.""Watch what you're saying. We haven't gotten to the bottom of it yet," said J

After hearing the resignation in the police officer's voice, Rosie, having first-hand experience of Corinne's deviousness, started shouting angrily, "That d*mn woman isn't only evil but cunning as well!"The more she thought about it, the angrier she became."Rosie, you shouldn't jump to conclusions. What if it really wasn't her?"Rosie was stunned. She looked at Sunny incredulously. "Are you serious, Sunny?"She might not be brave enough to talk back to Jeremy, but she was definitely not afraid to do the same to Sunny."Sunny, this is Anya we're talking about! How can you side with an outsider and not your sister?"A troubled frown appeared on Sunny's face. "Rosie, you shouldn't make such baseless accusations about me. I'll always stand by my sister no matter what. It's just that…I don't think Corinne is the kind of person who'd do such a thing. Besides, have you forgotten the many times you've wronged her?"Rosie opened and closed her mouth like a fish gasping for air, having

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

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
