The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1182

Sophia laughed wryly. "You're an interesting man, Mister Zeke."

"What's the use of being interesting if you don't love me?"

"Oh, stop it. I know I'm not your type either."

…

Meanwhile, in a luxurious villa on the outskirts of the city, Corinne was watching the television while having her dinner.

The villa belonged to Jason, and she had been living there for close to six months. She intended to fly out of the country with Jason's private jet after the storm died down. Alas, the chaos never settled as Jeremy still ordered his men to look for her and keep a close eye on all major transport systems.

Even though she could use Jason's private jet, the pilot would still need to clear the flight with the air traffic controller, which would require him to submit all the passengers' names. She was sure she would be exposed then since Jeremy would be monitoring all the private jets leaving the country as well. Thus, she had no choice but to accept Jason's arrangement to hide out in the villa.

The villa was located quite far from the city, and there were no other buildings around it. Thus, Corinne knew she would be safe there. Jason even arranged for his trusted servants to take care of her, and there would be deliveries of essentials every other day.

Corinne did not have to stay at Jason's since both Xante and Aaron had many properties under their names too. She could hide out in any one of them, but doing so would put her at the risk of being discovered by Jeremy.

The message was from Xante. Both she and Aaron had a rotation of different phone numbers they used to contact her, and as an added precaution, they only communicated with each other using Morse Code.

The gist of the text message this time was Holden Group would be holding a ribbon-cutting ceremony for their new building in three days. They asked for the attendance of Moon with the stipulation that they would not pay the remaining balance they owed to Newmoon Group if she did not attend.

Since Corinne was the one who negotiated the deal, she knew how much money was involved, so she knew this was no time for joking. Nonetheless…

She looked down at her baby bump and thought, 'This is going to be tricky… If the baby bump isn't showing, I could just do what I did last time—join the ceremony by wearing a mask and telling them I'm allergic to UV rays. It's not like Jeremy's the type who'd force me to take off my mask…'
