The Day I Kissed An Older Man

“Is this Francine? Your brother is still sleeping. Did something urgent happen? Should I wake him up, or do you want to call him again later?” asked the woman.

At the mention of her name, Francine immediately realized the woman obviously knew Jeremy well. However, she did not recognize the woman’s voice, so she had no idea whether it was anyone from their circle of friends.

Still, she knew she should not say more in front of Corinne, so she said to the woman on the phone, “It’s nothing urgent. I’ll call him again later.”

After that, she quickly hung up the phone and looked toward Corinne to check her reaction. If it were any other woman, she would have snatched the phone away from Francine and asked the same question Francine did, or even straight away cursing her.

However, Corinne was not any other woman—she did not even react. She simply looked away and said nothing.

‘Sh*t. Her reaction is not normal. This is all my fault. I should say something to help Jeremy out…’ thought Francine. Thus, she quickly explained, “Corinne, I’m sure this is just a misunderstanding. That woman is probably the personal assistant my brother hired for his business trip since Tommy didn’t go with him this time. I mean, have you seen him without a personal assistant before? Let me tell you, he’s useless without one.”

Corinne smiled calmly. “Can a mere personal assistant go into his room when he’s still sleeping and pick up his calls?”
