The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 799

Cedric was taken aback. 'Why did you use that analogy on me...'

Beatrice smiled as she glanced at Cedric. "He's probably thinking about going out to 'fish' now! I guess the only time a man will stay put and behave is when he's in the coffin!"

Cedric frowned. "No! What are you talking about? We've been together for an entire life! Have I ever been that kind of person?"

Beatrice scoffed. "If you're not that kind of person, what's with all this nonsense you're teaching Corinne?"

Cedric was speechless. 'I'm only saying that because I can't bear to see a good young woman like Corinne marrying into the ruthless Holden household!'

He sighed, turned, and said earnestly to Corinne, "Our situation is different. Beatrice and I are childhood sweethearts, and we're about the same age as each other. We both know each other well, and we genuinely enjoy living the rest of our lives with each other. We're an open book when it comes to each other!

"But Jeremy is nearly ten years older than you, and you don't even know him that well. A man's true nature isn't something you can see through in a short time! I just think that you're still young, and I feel that you should be more cautious in choosing your life partner."

Corinne knew that the Riveras and the Holdens had never been on good terms, so it did not surprise her that Cedric did not like Jeremy. She did not take his words to heart and brushed them off casually, finding an excuse to leave. "Grandma Beatrice, can I take some of these cookies with me? Sunny wanted me to help him with his homework, so I'll bring some cookies there for him too."

"Of course. You can take them all! You're supposed to be our guest, but that kid still asked you to teach him. I'm so sorry about that!"

Corinne smiled. "Don't worry about it. He and I know each other, and teaching him gives me the chance to revise some of the things I've learned in the past, so I don't end up forgetting them!"

Beatrice was very appreciative of Corinne's help and nodded with a smile. "That's very kind of you. Go ahead, then! I'll have someone call you both when it's time for dinner."
