All Chapters of The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Chapter 451 - Chapter 460

Jeremy checked the time on his wristwatch. "Yes."Lucas lifted Anya off him, stood up gracefully, and put on his suit jacket. "That settles it then. The three of us will go over the details of the engagement over lunch.""Okay," said Jeremy.Corinne — who was still hiding behind the bookshelf and two months pregnant — touched her belly subconsciously. Her eyes were filled with coldness and irony.'So they're going to talk about Jeremy's and Anya's engagement eh? I'm sure their parents would not object to them being together since they already have a kid together. Maybe this will be the start of them putting away their differences and coming together as a real family,' thought Corinne.Lucas put his arm around Anya's shoulders and the three of them walked over to the door when suddenly Lucas paused in his tracks and said, "Jeremy, might I trouble you to bring Anya to the restaurant first? I just remember I have urgent matters to attend to. I'll ask Edmund to make a reservation for

Corinne was too lazy to explain herself. Instead, she asked, "So you're okay with Anya getting engaged with someone from the Holden family?"A look of resignation flashed across Lucas' face. "Considering my family's stance on this, I, for one, don't wish to see them getting married because my elders will rain down their disapproval on me. But, my sister is too stubborn to ever let Jeremy go. It's as if she'll die if she's not with him, and as her brother, it's my job to protect her and make sure she lives happily ever after with the man she loves. I'll never forgive those who wish her harm so I hope you can understand where I'm coming from, Miss Carew."Corinne looked quietly at Lucas. Suddenly, she smiled. "Yes, I do understand where you're coming from. She's lucky to have a brother like you."Lucas could not tell whether she was being sincere in her praise but he did not care one way or another. He did his job in warning her so that if she knew what was good for her, she would sta

"Yes, Mister Lucas."Edmund had no choice but to do what Lucas said. He turned around, threw Corinne a disgusted glance, and said huffily, "Miss Carew, please follow me."Corinne nodded, yawned lazily, and followed him out of the office.…At the hotel, the Aburian clients are staying.Three men dressed in exotic clothes were dining in the restaurant downstairs of the hotel. They were talking in a foreign language, and their tone and expressions were very serious and unhappy as if they were complaining about something that made them angry.Not far from the restaurant, Edmund passed Corinne the details about the project. "The three men there are the clients. Do you need me to take you there?" he asked coldly.Corinne waved her hand. "No. I can go by myself."That was just fine with Edmund since he did not have the intention to take her there anyway. He did not want to experience second-hand embarrassment in case Corinne did something unexpected to embarrass herself.In his mind

Anya left her seat to get the cake.Lucas watched her sister walk off before he looked at Jeremy, who was sitting across from him, and his gaze became dignified. "Jeremy, don't you think you're too cold to Anya?"Jeremy looked up at him. "Is this your first day knowing me?"Lucas was speechless.Jeremy was right. They knew each other since childhood and were in the same social circle.Jeremy indeed was always indifferent growing up. He was never too friendly to anybody.However, at the thought of his sister, whom he doted on since childhood, would be marrying a man who had no clue how to care for a girl at all in the future, Lucas could not help but sigh. He had no idea what Anya saw in him!Lucas did not hold Jeremy responsible for his attitude toward Anya earlier anymore. He got down to business with him."Jeremy, I already know that you and Anya adopted a child abroad behind both your parents' backs."Jeremy stopped cutting his steak a little, then he continued.Lucas co

Lucas was right, but Jeremy was still calm."We didn't get registered in time, but we had a wedding. It's an actual marriage in the eyes of the law. Lucas, I understand that you're worried about your sister. I will use the rest of my life to compensate your sister for what she lost for me. However, the only thing I can't give her is marriage and your so-called happiness. I'm sorry."Having said that, Jeremy raised his wrist and glanced at this watch. "I'm done with my lunch. I have a meeting later in the afternoon, so I'll first be taking my leave."He stood up, turned around, and left, leaving no room for argument.Seeing how unwaveringly cold he was, Lucas could not hold himself back anymore. He stood up angrily and said, "Jeremy! Do you even have a conscience?"At that time, Anya happened to return with the cake. She saw that Jeremy was about to leave and her brother was angry, but she had no idea what happened. Looking confused, she asked, "What's the matter? Where are you goi
