The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1159

Francine shook her head helplessly. "I don't know either…but it seems like Corinne planned her escape."

"Escape? Why would she want to run away? Did we mistreat her?"

"I think she's mad 'cause Jeremy kept her under house arrest…"

Greg frowned. "Just because of that? Who does she think she is? I forbid anyone to go look for her. Let's see how long she can survive on her own outside."

Pamela, who was clutching her chest weakly, sat up a little straighter when she heard what Greg said. "You old fool! What the heck are you talking about? Don't you know Corinne doesn't need us? She'll never come back if we don't look for her."

Even though Greg looked a little worried, he stubbornly insisted on his standpoint. "Hmph! She can stay missing for all I care!"

Only then did the living room turn quiet.

Greg looked out of the window anxiously. It would be a lie if he said he was not worried about Corinne.

Following the sound, she found Corinne's phone, and the caller ID showed it was Jeremy calling her. 'Why wouldn't she bring her phone with her?' wondered Francine.

Without hesitation, Francine answered the call.

Jeremy's anxious voice immediately came through. "Where did you go?"

"Jeremy, it's me. Francine."

After a pause, Jeremy asked, "Have you found her?"

"No. Not yet," said Francine regretfully. "But don't worry. I'm sure—"
