The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1220

Meanwhile, Corinne and Jeremy were led to their table by the restaurant's manager.

The manager pulled her chair out for her, but since she was in the eighth month of her pregnancy, the gap between the chair and the table was still a little too narrow for her to fit in. She tried a few times to sit but to no avail. She reached out her hand and intended to pull back the chair further.

However, before her hand even touched the chair, Jeremy pulled out the chair for her.

Stunned, she looked up at him.

Even though she still did not like him, she still thanked him politely.

Jeremy did not spare her a glance or say anything. He simply walked over to the seat across from her and sat.

The day before, the two of them sat down across from each other at the dining table and had a meal in the same way. At the time, she wore a mask and thought she got away with it, so she ate her meal without any worries.

This time, it was different. She was sitting across from Jeremy, mask-free, so it would be difficult for her to pretend everything was alright between them.

Not wanting to meet Jeremy's gaze more than she had to, Corinne looked out of the restaurant and asked, "Why aren't Annie and Marcus coming in yet?"

She remembered Annie was next to her when she entered the restaurant, so where was she?

Jeremy's gaze darkened. He sneered. "What? Is it torturous to be alone with me?"

Corinne was annoyed at his question. She glared at him, but she then smiled. "No. It's not that. I'm just very hungry and want to order as soon as possible, but it would be rude to order without them."

"Yes, Mister Jeremy." The waiter left after that, leaving Corinne alone with Jeremy again.

She was starting to feel suffocated as Jeremy stared at her from time to time.

Jeremy took a sip of his water and narrowed his eyes at her. "Miss Corinne, judging by how healthy you look, you must be living very well for the past six months."

Corinne gave him a superficial smile. "Thanks for the compliment. It's always important for me to take care of myself well."

"A very commendable habit. So what's your plan from here on out?" asked Tyler impassively.
