The Day I Kissed An Older Man

No matter how resistant Lucas was to the idea of Jeremy carrying him again, he did not dare to disobey Corinne’s order. Thus, he resigned to his fate and let Jeremy carry him out of the car.

Once they reached the floor where Lucas’ apartment was, Jeremy put him down so he could open the door. After keying in the passcode, Jeremy stepped forward to support him, but Lucas quickly waved him away, hopped into the apartment, and sat on the sofa.

Jeremy and Corinne stayed outside the door, and they decided to leave once they saw Lucas made it safely inside.

“Since you two are here, why not stay for some drinks before leaving?” Lucas asked.

Corinne was not interested in doing that. Though, she was worried about leaving Lucas alone as she was sure Lucas would try to walk the moment she would leave. Thus, she thought she might as well stay until Edmund came with the private nurse.

She turned to Jeremy. “Mister, are you thirsty?”

Jeremy knew what she was hinting at. He nodded, replying, “Yeah. A little.”

“Okay. Let’s take Mister Lucas up on his offer, then,” said Corinne.
