The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1498

Sunny shrugged his shoulders. "Okay, then. I'll go for a walk there and come back at noon to get some lunch. Your treat, of course!"

Corinne glanced at him in disdain and placed down her coffee cup. "I'm pretty sure that's the main reason you came here."

Sunny got up with a grin and strolled out. He did not want to disturb Corinne at work.

Corinne sat alone for a while with a complicated expression on her face. She seemed to be in deep thought, but she soon got up and went to work.

Sunny left to spend time with a friend who owned a cyber cafe in the city. As it neared noon, he was invited to join them for a meal, which he declined. Once he had enough fun, he left the place and made his way back to Corinne's company.

One of his friends handed him a low-alcohol drink while he was gaming, so he felt that it was unsafe for him to drive. He decided it would be best to take a taxi.

Along the way, he passed by his family's company, and Sunny had a sudden idea. He asked the driver to stop the car for a while and took out his cell phone to call Lucas.

"Where are you, Lucas? Let's have lunch together at noon. I'm meeting Corinne for lunch!"

Lucas replied sonorously, "My hands are a little full this afternoon, so I can't make it. Behave yourself, and don't make Corinne angry."

Sunny smiled heartily and said, "I'm not the naive kid I was ten years ago, okay? I'm a man now. I won't make her angry."

Lucas responded, "I hope so."

'Is Lucas in a relationship? Is he meeting a woman secretly during lunch break?' Sunny found Lucas' 'romantic escapades' to be more intriguing than having lunch with Corinne, so he told the taxi driver to turn around and follow the car.

Lucas drove to the hotel where he stayed the previous night. Rather than check out, he swiped his card and entered the suite that he checked into the day before. The hotel was not very close to the company, and traffic congestion that resulted from a traffic accident meant that Lucas took more than an hour to reach the hotel. Edmund had been staying in that suite, quietly observing movement in the opposite room through a peephole.

Lucas was concerned about the possibility of a trap, and that Jeremy's promise to meet the next day at 2 p.m. was merely a delaying tactic. For those reasons, he stationed Edmund there to keep an eye on things. However, there had been no movement thus far, and no one had left the room yet.

Once Lucas entered the suite, he took off his coat and sat on the sofa to check the time. It was already past one, and the agreed meeting time with Jeremy was less than an hour away.

Should Edmund see Sophia leave, he would go to the other suite to hear Jeremy's explanation for the three-year disappearance.
