The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 740

"I'll send you the restaurant location later. All you need to do now is to work hard at your job," replied Corinne and before Jeremy could say anything, she had already hung up the phone.

The reason Corinne ended the call so quickly was because Francine had just come back from outside and was standing in front of her and glaring at her vehemently. Corinne did not want to worry Jeremy with what was going on at home so she was left with no choice but to hang up the phone.

Corinne was unfazed by the way Francine was glaring at her. She curled her lips into a nonchalant smile and asked, "Why are you back? Didn't you say you're going to Anya's place to hang out?"

Francine crossed her arms haughtily before sitting down on the sofa. "What I do is none of your business!"

Corinne let out a lazy yawn and said, "You're right. It is none of my business but I should warn you, stay away from Anya. She's a bad influence on you."

Francine really liked Anya from the bottom of her heart since the two of them went way back. In fact, the latter had bribed the former with sweets and whatnots ever since they were young so it was only natural that Francine would wish Anya to be her sister-in-law.

When she heard Corinne telling her to stay away from Anya, she thought Corinne was jealous of Anya so she simply rolled her eyes and said, "Corinne, what right do you have to tell me what to do? Who do you think you are? I like hanging out with Anya 'cause she's a thousand times better than you and there's nothing you can do about it!"

Corinne narrowed her eyes and said solemnly, "You ask me who do I think I am? Well, I'm your sister-in-law, that's who! I have the responsibility to discipline you on behalf of your brother. This includes forbidding you from being friends with people who are a bad influence on you!"

In the first three months Corinne and Jeremy were together, they only saw each other as business partners so Corinne did not feel like it was her responsibility to care about anything that went on in his family.

However, the situation had changed. She really had every intention to spend the rest of her life with Jeremy so she felt like she had the responsibility to teach the spoiled Francine how to be a decent human being. Otherwise, there might be a chance that Anya would use Francine as a means to get rid of her if she did not nip their friendship in the bud.
