The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1253

Annie must have come back because she forgot something.

Corinne placed her glass of milk down and got up to open the door.

As soon as the door opened, Jason's charming face appeared in front of her.

Corinne remained calm despite her surprise. "Why are you here?"

Jason held up a thermos. "To see you, of course! Have you had breakfast? I asked someone to prepare some soup for you."

"Thanks," said Corinne and invited him in.

It was the first time Jason came to Corinne's place, and he began admiring the decor as soon as he entered the door. "Where's the kitchen? I'll get a bowl and pour some for you!"

"Have a seat. I'll get it myself." Corinne walked toward the kitchen rather than pointing him to where it was.

Instead of sitting, Jason followed her into the kitchen with the thermos. The cupboard was situated under the sink, so it was a little difficult for Corinne to bend down and get the bowls.

Jason walked over and helped her. "Let me do it."

Corinne stepped aside and allowed him to help her.

Jason took out a bowl from the cupboard and opened the thermos to pour out some soup for her. He placed it on the bar and said, "Drink some while it's hot!"

Corinne nodded. She was not too fond of normal breakfast during her pregnancy, preferring instead to drink soups. During the time she stayed in Jason's villa, he instructed the servants there to cook soup for her every night.

Jason sighed when he heard that, but he then smiled at her. "Do I look like such a calculative person to you? The concern that I show for you comes from the bottom of my heart. I've never considered anything else."

Corinne lowered her head and continued to drink her soup. After a moment of silence, she said, "I'm very grateful for all the help you have given me, and I'll treat you as a good friend. Let me know if you face any difficulties in the future and I'll promise you I'll do my best to help you. Other than that, I can't repay your kindness with feelings. I hope you'll understand."

Jason approached her and said, "Do you have to be that firm on this?"

Corinne looked up at his charming eyes. "It's better for me to be harsh than to let you string yourself along with false hope."

"You still have a long life ahead of you." Jason moved closer again. "Are you saying you don't plan on falling in love again in the future?"

Corinne felt that he trespassed her comfort zone and decided to retreat slightly. "I don't have the heart for that anymore."
