The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1772

Sunny immediately turned serious. "No, Xante. I wouldn't keep hanging around you if I were a jerk. I mean, you were nothing but cold to me, yet I shamelessly chased after you. Do you really think it's because I'm without shame? If I could choose who to have feelings for, I would've chosen a woman who's as passionate about me as I'm passionate about her!"

Xante kept her eyes on the road and said nothing.

"And I genuinely don't know about what my dad did in the past. As his son, I'm not going to call him a jerk when I'm with you. It's just that I can't leave him alone. You don't have to go with me if you don't want to. Just forget I said anything," added Sunny.

Still, Xante said nothing. She just turned the steering wheel to maneuver that car off the overhead bridge.

Seeing that they were not going in the right way, Sunny frowned and asked, "Xante, why are we taking this road? This isn't the way to the hospital."

He instinctively clutched his seatbelt tightly, fearing that Xante was going to throw him out of the car.

However, Xante simply said, "The way we're going doesn't have a flower shop on the way."

Sunny frowned in confusion. "A flower shop? Xante, who are you going to buy flowers for? You better not be buying flowers to give to another man behind my back!"

Xante gave him an annoyed glance. "If I can't do it behind your back, then I'll do it right in front of you!"

Sunny frowned. "Just who the heck are you buying flowers for? Is it a woman or a man? You haven't even given me flowers before! Are you trying to give me a stroke?"

Thus, she decided to give herself some space by not sitting together with Melinda and Lilin. Instead, she put on a hat and sunglasses and sat at the table next to them so she could observe the situation.

Melinda and Lilin's table was next to the window. Lilin was drinking a glass of warm milk and looking at the passersby outside the window.

"Mommy, do you think Corinne will be happy once she hears the story we're going to tell her? Or will she be sad?" asked Lilin curiously and a tad solemnly.

Melinda sighed and said, "A little bit of both, I guess. Emotions are a very complicated thing. Sometimes, we'll feel mixed emotions. It might take her some time to accept it when she sees her long-lost mother out of the blue."
