The Day I Kissed An Older Man

‘If I leave the office now I’d bump into Anya and Jeremy! What should I do?’ thought Corinne.

Lucas looked at the panicking Corinne and thought he liked her better this way. ‘She’s way cuter like this than when she’s all huffy-puffy,’ he raised his eyebrow and said mockingly, “So the great and mighty Corinne does know how to panic as well.”

Corinne was speechless. She was not in the mood for Lucas’s mockery. ‘D*mmit! Of all the things I’ve expected to go wrong, this is certainly one I didn’t see coming.”

She banked on the fact that the Holdens and the Riveras were at odds with each other. Therefore, she was confident Jeremy would not appear in the company. She even remembered the bad vibe clashing in the air whenever Jeremy and Lucas were in the same room.

‘Things must be going well between Jeremy and Anya in the one month I was gone. Maybe the elders have started to accept each other? If that’s true, that’ll explain why they’re getting engaged so soon,’ thought Corinne, clenching her fists.

Lucas narrowed his eyes. Not giving a d*mn about Corinne’s feelings, he then said to Edmund, “Let them in!”

“Yes, Mister Lucas.”
