The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 503

Chapter 503

Jason was dazed for a moment when she called him that. Then, he smiled with satisfaction and said, “You’re welcome, Corinne. I just rushed over here from work, and Zeke called to tell me that they were drinking at Grace Garden. Lucas was probably invited too. Would you like to come with me and look for him?”

Lucas had very likely gone to meet Zeke and the others, and Corinne was confident that Jeremy would not be around because she had earlier confirmed that Jeremy had left.

Having considered all that, Corinne nodded and said, “Sure. I’ll go with you.”

Lunar Century Manor’s Grace Garden was a small garden separate from the manor. It was a very quiet place since it was far from the banquet hall.

Corinne walked into Grace Garden with Jason, and as soon as she entered the room, she saw three men sitting around playing some cards.

Jason asked with a smile, “What are you boys playing?”

“Jason! You came just in time! Care to go for a round?”

Zeke cocked his eyebrow after dealing his card and was stunned for a moment when he saw Corinne standing right beside Jason. He narrowed his eyes incredulously and joked, “Your companion looks a little familiar!”

Jason smiled and explained truthfully, “Don’t get me wrong, my companion was Angie-my secretary. Corinne came here as Jason’s companion. I ran into her earlier when she was

looking for Lucas, so I brought her here with me.”

Zeke became even more confused as he turned his head to look at Lucas. “Why is she looking for you?”

“She’s my secretary now,” Lucas answered calmly.

‘She ran away from the Holdens, and now she’s hired as Lucas’s secretary? Tsk, tsk, tsk! Things are getting more and more interesting!’

Zeke stared at Corinne, whom he had not seen in a long time, and turned his head before raising his chin towards the floor-to-ceiling window. He then said, “Hey, Jeremy! An old friend of yours is here. Aren’t you going to catch up on the good old days?”

Corinne’s calm expression stiffened after hearing what Zeke said. ‘Jeremy hasn’t lett yet?”

Corinne shook her head. “No, I’m just a little thirsty.”

Jason immediately got up and poured her a glass of water. “Here you go.”

Corinne took the glass and said, “Thank you.”

Jason was very thoughtful to have provided warm water for her. She felt slightly better after drinking the entire glass.

After Jason sat back down, he leaned into her ear all of a sudden and whispered, “I can send you home if you feel unwell. You’re probably on your period now, right? Is your discomfort because of your period?”

Corinne was taken aback for a moment after Jason’s surprising remark. Periods were part and parcel of being a woman, and she was surprised not because she was shy, but because she found it a little strange.

She frowned, looked at the charming man beside her, and asked, “Why do you remember my menstrual period?”

Jason chuckled, leaned close to her ear, and whispered, “Did you forget your first visit to my gallery? You felt uncomfortable because you had your period, and that day was four months ago today.”
