The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 877

Chapter 877 

Francine’s curiosity was then piqued. “Hey, Corinne. Why don’t you get yourself a little something too since you have full access to my brother’s credit card?” 

“I have everything I need, so there’s no need to buy anything.” 

Frowning, Francine looked Corinne up and down with disgust. ‘Her clothes are so basic… I mean, she’s pretty enough to wear such basic clothing, but how will anybody know she’s rich if she doesn’t wear branded stuff?” 

“Of course you need to buy something! In fact, you should throw away all the clothes you have now and revamp your wardrobe. Corinne, you’re Missus Hart now, so you should dress accordingly. If not, you’ll just be an embarrassment to my brother.” 

Corinne raised her head to look at Francine with something she could not quite decipher. This made Francine realize what she had just said. Thus, she cleared her throat awkwardly and said, “Ahem! Don’t get me wrong. This is by no way me accepting you as my sister-in-law… I just think you should at least clean yourself up since that lovesick brother of mine insisted on keeping you by his side. I’m only doing this for my brother. Only a polished woman is worthy enough for him.” 

Corinne smiled. “Thank you for your advice, but your brother doesn’t care what I wear, and I don’t have any interest in branded stuff. I’ll make sure I dress accordingly when the situation requires, but when it comes to day-to-day clothes…you can forget about it.” 

Francine rolled her eyes. “Hmph! You must think all this money is chump change. What you’re really after is all my family’s fortune. That’s why you’re working so hard to have my brother wrapped around your little finger!” 

Corinne smiled. “You’re right, but you can’t fault me for being good at it. You would’ve done the same if you’re as good as I am at getting a guy to willingly give all of his money to you.” 

Francine crossed her arms and rolled her eyes. “Oh, please. I’m not as manipulative as you are.” 

The two girls made a beeline to the Hermes shop as soon as they arrived at the mall. Francine happily weaved around the shelves to choose a bag that she liked while Corinne waited in the waiting area with a coffee in her hand. 

“Corinne.” 

Sometime later, someone called out her name. She looked over and saw Jason walking over with a femininely dressed woman on his side. 

Jason smiled at her. “So it is you, Corinne. I thought I was wrong.” 

“Yeah. What a coincidence,” said Corinne with a nod. She did not stand up but continued sipping her coffee. 

“Why don’t you go over there and pick out a few bags you like while I stay and talk to my friend here,” said Jason softly to the woman beside him. 

The woman did not seem to want to leave. She threw a guarded glance at Corinne before finally nodding and turning to check out the bags. 

Jason immediately sat beside Corinne as soon as the woman left. 

“Corinne, are you here alone? Where’s Jeremy?” he asked. 

“I came here with Francine. I promised her I’d buy her a bag, so I’m just waiting for her here while she picks the bag she wants,” said Corinne indifferently. 

Jason narrowed his eyes. “Well, how nice of you to bring your sister-in-law to do some bag shopping.” Corinne ignored his sarcastic remark and instead asked, “Was that your girlfriend?” 

“Nope,” answered Jason without hesitation.
