The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1129

She was talking to Sunny for a moment, and the next, he was hauled off by a couple of men. Needing time to process what just happened, she sipped her coffee while blinking.

"That coffee must be really good for you to be in a daze," teased Aaron.

His voice snapped Annie out of her shock. She quickly put her coffee down.

Aaron smiled at her. "Don't worry. You're allowed to have a little coffee break. But why didn't you order one for me too?"

Annie got up to explain, "Umm… Actually, a colleague from another department bought this coffee, and… We didn't get you one because we thought you wouldn't like cheap drinks like this."

Not wanting to throw her colleagues under the bus, she explained it in such a way that would not offend Aaron.

Aaron raised his eyebrow. "Oh, really? What makes you think I won't drink cheap drinks? Give it to me. I want to have a taste!"

'He wants to have a taste? But we didn't even order one for him!' Annie looked at him perplexedly. Before she could react, Aaron picked up her coffee from the table and sipped.

"Hey, it's not bad. Tell them to get me one next time."

Annie's eyes widened in surprise, and colors began creeping in on her cheek. She looked at him in confusion. 'Did he really just drink from my cup?! Does that mean…we kissed? No, Annie, you're overthinking things. The thought probably never crossed his mind since he changes girlfriends like he changes underwear. He's probably used to having his way with women, so he didn't drink the coffee because of me. In fact, he would've drank the coffee if it were anyone else other than me!'

Annie shook her head to clear her head of unrealistic thoughts. She then took back her coffee and threw it in the trash can. "Okay, Mister Aaron. I'll ask them to order you one in the future."

"Are you sure? 'Cause this isn't a work matter but a personal matter."

Annie looked up curiously. "A personal matter? Do elaborate."

'He's not going to ask me to buy condoms again, is he?' she wondered.

Aaron put his arm around Xante's shoulder. "We'd like to go to the Holdens' mansion, but we're worried they wouldn't welcome us. So, we were hoping you'll take us there. It should be easier for us to get in since you're Jeremy's niece."

Annie was a little taken aback by his request. "But why do you want to go to Uncle Jeremy's house, Mister Aaron? Did something happen?"
