The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 760

Jeremy was still hugging Corinne, so he could not hold Joey. Instead, he said coldly to Anya, "Why don't you bring Joey to the guest room? It's not good for him to be out and about when he has a fever."

Anya was angered by Jeremy choosing Corinne over Joey. "Jeremy, aren't you going to give Joey a hug? He's been crying for you nonstop. Oh, I get it now. You're worried about Corinne getting jealous, aren't you?"

She then turned to Corinne and pleaded pitifully, "Corinne, won't you let Joey have some time with his father? He really needs him right now…"

Jeremy was about to say something, but Corinne beat him to it. "Hey, I'm not the one keeping him from Joey. He's a grown man. He can choose who he wants to spend time with, and it just so happens he chose me."

She leaned lazily against Jeremy and crossed her legs, treating him like a human-shaped armchair. "You surprised me today, Miss Anya. I've always thought you're a fragile woman, but it took you no time to run over her with Joey in your arms. Why, it hasn't even been a hot minute after Jeremy hung up on you."

Anya found it harder to hide the hatred she had for Corinne. She forced herself to squeeze out a smile. "Well, one learns how to become stronger after one becomes a mother. Which is something you wouldn't know, Corinne. Since you're not a mother yourself."

'Oh, please! As if she deserves to be called a mother!' thought Corinne. She broke out in a mocking smile as she stood up from Jeremy's lap. "Oh, Miss Anya. Your words have so moved me. How can I keep little Joey away from his father? Here, let his father carry him."

She then turned to look at Jeremy with her eyebrow raised. "Mister, what are you still waiting there for? Your kid is crying for you!"

Instead of moving, Jeremy simply stared at Corinne with narrowed eyes.
