The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 285

Chapter 285

Amazingly, Corinne left the man stumped with just a few words.

Jeremy leaned lazily against the door frame and placed his hands on his belt. There was a gentle sense of pride as he watched his wife gain the upper hand against Lucas. ‘That’s my girl!‘

He then walked over and asked, “Why did you come out instead of resting in your ward?”

Corinne saw that Jeremy had come out of Ward 302 at some point and was walking toward her, which drew a frown from her as she said unhappily, “I’ve been sleeping too much and I’m bored, so I thought of coming out to check whether or not you’re still alive.”

Jeremy’s expression turned sullen, but he seemed to have gotten used to her ability to irritate people and was not angry as a result.

His big rough hands covered the top of her head and massaged her impudently. “Sorry to burst your bubble, but I’m still alive. Were you disappointed?”

Corinne dodged the man’s touch smoothly by moving a step. She despised having him touch her when his hand had just been hugging another woman! Tiredness began to sink in, so Corinne waved her little swollen gauze -wrapped hands and said, “Carry on, folks. I won’t be joining your conversation anymore!”

She then turned and left.

Jeremy followed Corinne naturally, and Anya ran out suddenly to hold the corner of his clothes. Tears welled up in her eyes as she said, “Don’t go, Jeremy! Stay with me, please. I’m scared…

Jeremy paused and looked at Anya. Rather than responding directly to her, he looked up at her brother Lucas and said, ” My family is very strict, and it’s inconvenient for me to take care of your sister.”

Lucas’s eyes dimmed slightly, and he nodded gracefully.‘ Understood.”

Jeremy then calmly broke away from Anya’s hand and said to her, “Your brother is here to keep you company. Rest well.” He then picked up the pace with steady steps and caught up with Corinne who was far ahead of him.

Anya wanted to catch up when she saw Jeremy leave, but Lucas took his younger sister’s arm and advised her kindly, “Be good, Anya. He’s already married.”

Anya shook her head aggrievedly. “I know that Jeremy only got married to deal with his old man. He never really intended to marry…”

Lucas reminded her in a gentle but stern tone, “Whatever his reasons for marrying, the fact remains that he’s married. You’re an innocent girl, Anya. Don’t get too close to married men in the future. Listen to my advice!”
