The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 255

“In this world, two things can never be grasped. One is time, and the other is a human’s heart. If the other person’s heart is no longer with you, no matter what you do to please them, their heart will never be yours. Why, then, should you spend so much energy doing something so futile? It’s better to do a good job in your own business, improve yourself, and let yourself be the one who

holds the initiative.”

Annie was caught off–guard, and the confusion in her eyes was replaced with admiration. “Aunt Corinne, what you said is so philosophical! I want to learn from you! Don’t fret about men anymore and just focus on your career!”

Corinne pinched her glabella, fearing that Annie would get the wrong idea and thus patiently explained, “That’s not the case. It’s good to fall in love and enrich your emotional life, but remember to never surrender yourself easily, let alone entrust your future to a man, wronging yourself to please a man. Understand?”

Annie nodded, feeling wholly inspired. “Yes, I understand! Thank you for your advice, Aunt Corinne!”

Corinne did not know if Annie truly understood, so she could only stop talking, lowered her head, and continued to sip her coffee.

‘What could I advise on? I’ve never been in a relationship myself, and I was just talking nonsense based on my feelings.

‘Annie, on the other hand, is an easily impressed girl. I hope my words can give her a little more to think about so that she won’t fall in love so quickly after meeting a man with sweet nothings.‘

All of a sudden, her phone rang.

Corinne took out her phone and looked at it and realized it was Jeremy’s new number.

Well, it was he who gave her the phone in her hand as well as its SIM card, while he went ahead and got a new number for himself.

After answering the call, the man’s deep voice rang through the device. “Where are you?”
