All Chapters of The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

The pain from getting scalded was more unbearable than other injuries. It was the type of pain that was not abrupt but a slow burn instead. The burning sensation would remain that it was possible to ignore.Corinne nodded. "I had to do everything myself when I lived in the countryside. That meant chopping the wood, making the fire, and boiling water. At first, I didn't know how to do it and ended up burning myself. It was so painful that I couldn't sleep for the whole night!"Jeremy's eyebrows furrowed at this. Unknowingly, his eyes looked worried. "When did you start doing all that?"Corinne answered faintly, "I can't remember."Very often, she refused to talk about her childhood. If she accidentally brought it up, she would stop the topic immediately.Jeremy placed his hand on top of her head and patted her like a little pet. "Did you have a bad childhood?""It's not that bad."Corinne did not like to have other people feeling pity for her. She pushed away his hand with disgus

Sherlyn raised her tear-stained face and said miserably, "Corinne, I've been good to you. I made you my assistant and even prepaid a month's salary to you. Ask if other assistants are paid that much!" She, too, began to sob loudly. "Why did you ruin my career?!"Lilliana hurried over to console her. "Don't cry, Sherlyn. Your father and I know you're very upset now. Corinne ruined your career because she's jealous of you, but we're a family. Why don't you forgive her and believe she didn't do it on purpose?"It only made Marvin feel even worse. The more he looked at Corinne, the angrier he felt. "Take a good look! Look at how nicely Lilliana treats you! She's still trying to convince Sherlyn to forgive you! But what about you?!"Corinne stretched her mouth and smiled sarcastically.At the moment, Marvin really dreaded using the broom to beat Corinne, but something must have changed his mind as he decided against it. In the end, he threw away the broom and said angrily, "I'm not goin

"Hello, Miss Sherlyn."The gentle, humble voice of a woman came from the other end of the phone. She sounded calm, elegant, and well-spoken. Everything about her voice suggested that she was a young, successful lady.A nervous feeling struck Sherlyn, and she changed her tone as she meekly answered a few questions about the movie.After a while, Sherlyn nodded and smiled, bidding the woman a kind farewell before hanging up.Marvin and Lilliana asked eagerly at the same time, "How did it go, Sherlyn? What did she say?"Sherlyn looked surprised and elated. "Daddy, Mommy, Miss Xante said she needs to consider investing in the movie, but her company has a new product and they're looking for an ambassador. She asked if I'm interested in being their ambassador!"Marvin smiled. "That's good news!"Lilliana smiled, too. "The products from Newmoon Group have a good reputation and are very popular in the country. If you can become their ambassador, your popularity is going to reach the nex

Even the driver and Aaron worked for Corinne.Sherlyn looked at Corinne contemptuously and rolled her eyes. If she had not picked up Xante's phone, she would never have had to bring along her country-bumpkin sister to Newmoon Group. To her, Corinne's mere presence would degrade her.After a while, the car stopped in front of the Newmoon Group building.Aaron got down. It came naturally for him to walk to the side where Corinne was sitting and opened the door for her. "If you'd please, Miss Carew."Corinne got out of the car expressionlessly as though she was used to it, much to Sherlyn's chagrin.Then again, she told herself that Aaron only opened the door for Corinne because it was nearer to him, and he was not giving Corinne any special treatment.She could not accept being treated less than Corinne, so she did not get down from her end and moved to where Corinne sat. Before she could get down from the car, however, Aaron closed the door without warning.In the end, she had to

"Holden Group was the one who engaged with us. Their president, Mister Jeremy that you know, liked our office building design. He was the one who requested the architect of this building to design Holden Group's new office building. We all know who the architect is, right? Moon?"Corinne's eyebrows furrowed. Moon was the name she used during work.Not even hesitating, she rejected this knowing it was a project related to Jeremy. "Nope! Not going to accept it.""Boss, Holden Group has offered a lot of money for the project!" Aaron used his fingers to show the numbers 'one' and 'five'.'A hundred and fifty million dollars?!' Corinne nearly choked on her coffee. 'Mister is a big spender!'Newmoon Group was established just recently about three years ago and was in the expanding phase. Although their market value kept on increasing, their cash flow was limited.'A hundred and fifty million...' It was a figure Corinne had a hard time rejecting.Aaron and Xante exchanged looks with ea
