The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1289

Sunny's curiosity was piqued, so he said, "I'm going up to take a look!"

Felix stopped him. "Mister Sunny, I think you should go back to your room. That way, Mister Lucas might forget all about your transgression today."

Sunny flung his hand away. "Don't worry. I'm just going to listen from outside the door to see if it's anyone I recognize. I'll make sure Lucas doesn't find out about it."

Felix wanted to stop him again, but Sunny ran off before he could grab him.

Meanwhile, in Lucas' room…

Lucas was peeling a mandarin orange for Corinne. "Here, Corinne. Have some mandarin oranges," he said gently.

Corinne waved her hand. "No, thanks. I'm not hungry."

Lucas placed the mandarin orange back on the table with a resigned sigh before picking up a glass of milk again. "The milk isn't that hot now. Do you want to drink it?"

Corinne took the glass of milk from his hand, but instead of drinking it, she placed it back on the coffee table. "Mister Lucas, you don't have to tiptoe around me."

Lucas sighed again. "I'm not tiptoeing around you. I'm just trying to show you my concern."

Corinne looked at him quietly. "Thank you for your concern and…for picking me up just now."

Lucas looked at her gently. "This is your home. You can stay here tonight. I've asked the servants to keep your room clean so you can move in straight away."

"Sorry, but there seems to be some misunderstanding. I don't have any plans to move back home. I asked you for help with the assumption you'll give me a ride home."

Lucas clamped his hand down on Corinne to stop her from getting up. "Be a good girl and listen to me, Corinne. The baby's due date is near. Heck, you might even go into labor now. The only way for me to not worry about you is if you stay at the mansion with me."

"But I'm staying with my friends! They'll send me to the hospital at the first sign of the baby coming. I know you're worried about me, Mister Lucas, but I don't think it's appropriate for an outsider like me to stay at your home," said Corinne.

Lucas felt a pang in his heart when she said that. "Corinne, how can you call yourself an outsider? Grandpa, Grandma, and even our dad… They never stopped missing you or hoping you'd come home over the years!"
