The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1147

Corinne brought some baby food for Joey. She told him to stop playing for a while and have dinner first.

Joey was very obedient. He swiftly put down the toy and got off the bed to eat his dinner. Corinne taught him to eat with a spoon, and Joey followed suit with a nod. His movements might be a bit clumsy, but he was able to learn how to eat.

Corinne could not help but feel a little emotional when she watched him use the spoon. She was leaving, and she did not know if the Holdens would take good care of her once she left. Since he was not blood-related to anyone in the household, there was no guarantee that the jerk Jeremy might treat his adopted son well in the future. Even if he did, he was the kind of man who had little time to take care of his children.

That was one of the reasons she taught Joey to eat with a spoon. He would be independent enough to feed himself if no one fed him after she left.

She was staring at Joey in a daze when her cell phone began to ring. She had two mobile phones at that moment: One was her own, and the other was left by Xante.

The ringing came from her phone, and the caller was none other than Jeremy.

Corinne was surprised that Jeremy would give her a call. 'Where did he get the time to call her when he was with his legal wife in another country?'

His act proved that Aaron was right in calling him a control freak.

Corinne snorted and answered the phone.

She scoffed and answered the call. She did not take the initiative to say anything, and neither did Jeremy. In the end, however, Jeremy spoke first and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Keeping an eye on Joey while he eats his dinner," Corinne answered.

"And you? Have you eaten?"

"Yes."

Corinne answered bluntly, "Yes."

Jeremy replied with an even more displeased tone. "Let's end the call, then. I have nothing more to say to you."

Corinne hung up without hesitation.

Jeremy merely said that in a moment of anger. Truth be told, he was still waiting for Corinne's explanation, but all he heard was the dial tone.

In his anger, he gripped his phone so tightly that it nearly broke.

At that moment, a woman came over and asked, "Why the long face, Jeremy? Did something happen?"
