The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1615

Jeremy watched Sophia's performance quietly for a long time before speaking. "He didn't say anything about you. He just looked a little upset, that's all."

Over the years, he had watched too many of Sophia's performances. No matter how good she was, he could still tell when she was lying. Thus, he was not surprised at all.

Even so, there was nothing he could do since he was confined to his wheelchair. He would play along with her at times, but most of the time, he would just sit numbly.

Sophia sighed. "So he is angry at me. Fine. I'll make it up to him when he wakes up."

"Okay."

"By the way, Dad said we'll be going out for dinner tonight since he can't bear to let Melinda cook for so many of us. He also said he has already booked a table."

Jeremy frowned. "Can I not go?"

Sophia shook her head. "Zachary, Dad is already feeling a bit peeved that you didn't pick him up at the airport this morning, so he's definitely going to kick up a fuss if you don't go to the family dinner tonight. Plus, I thought you care about what he thinks of you."

Jeremy looked down at his hands. "Fine. I get it."

Sophia looked at him closely. "So does that mean you'll go?"

Jeremy nodded. "Yeah, I'll go. Can you help me pick out an outfit for tonight?"

Sophia smiled happily. "Of course! I knew you wouldn't make things hard for me, Zachary! I'll go pick out your outfit now."

Meanwhile, Corinne was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window of her room as she looked up at the night clouds tiredly.

"So, you didn't get to see Nellie Nymphaea face-to-face at all?" she asked with unconcealed disappointment. For a moment, she thought she had found her mouth.

Lucas stood beside her and sighed. "I nearly did, but she must've sensed my presence because she left without coming upstairs. After that, she turned down every invitation my friend extended to her. She even refunded the lesson fees my friend gave her and told her she'd never teach her again."

Corinne frowned with confusion. "Why is an art teacher so wary of outsiders?"

"I also find it strange, but there's really no way to persuade her to come out and meet us."
