The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1046

Aaron put his hand to his forehead and sighed helplessly.

"But what you're asking me to do is kinda impossible. I'm quite the good catch, if you haven't noticed. Annie won't give up unless I hurt her feelings a bit."

Corinne rolled her eyes. "That's why I warned you to stay away from girls like her! They're the type to fall hard and fast! Once they do, they won't give up no matter what. What you're doing is akin to committing a grave sin."

Aaron raised a corner of his lips. "Fine, I'll admit I shouldn't have done that. And I promise I'll never do it again."

Corinne simply scoffed and said nothing more.

Aaron looked around the room and asked curiously, "Boss, where's Mister Jeremy? Why isn't he here with you?"

Corinne looked out of the window at the blue sky. "He went on an overseas business trip."

"He did what?! How can he still have the mind to work when you're lying here in the hospital? Does he even care about you?"

Corinne simply frowned and said nothing.

…

Meanwhile, in the restroom.

Annie splashed some cold water on her face. She then raised her head to look at her dripping-wet sorry reflection in the mirror.

"Really, Annie. You won't even know what kindness looks like even if it bites you right in the face. I'm just trying to warn you that guy seems like trouble, so how can you be so mean to me in return?"

Annie wiped her face dry with a napkin. "I might not be experienced in relationships, but I don't need a little girl like you to tell me what to do."

She then threw the napkin into the trash can and walked past Francine.

Not one to back down so easily, Francine turned around and chased after her. "Who are you calling a little girl? How rude of you! Have you forgotten I'm your aunt?!"

Annie simply ignored her and quickened her pace.

Francine, too, quickened her pace. "By the way, who's that guy? Why does he call Corinne 'boss'?"
