The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 532

Chapter 532

In the emergency ward.

The doctors tended to Joey’s burn and after bandaging up his eye, one of the doctors told Anya and Jeremy to mentally prepare themselves to accept the possibility that Joey would forever have a scar on his left eye since that was where he was the most badly burned.

Tears immediately flowed from Anya’s eyes when she heard that. “Oh, my poor, poor child! He’s so young and yet he has to leave with this disfigurement forever! Jeremy, what should we

do?”

Jeremy patiently tried to calm her down. “The doctor said it’s only a possibility. That means there’s a chance it won’t happen.”

Anya kept crying. “But, what if?”

Jeremy was losing his patience by then. “He’s a boy so a little scar is nothing! We should be glad that he’s fine!”

Anya could tell Jeremy was not in the mood for her theatrics so she immediately turned off her waterworks and said pitifully, “You’re right. Joey is a boy so a little scar will not affect him in any way. It’s just that, I can’t help but think he doesn’t deserve something like this happening

to him.”

Jeremy ignored her and instead went into the emergency ward to check on Joey. After all, it was more important to comfort Joey – who had no idea what was happening

than to

comfort Anya who was an adult.

Anya followed Jeremy into the emergency ward and saw Joey’s left eye covered in bandages. He was not crying anymore though he did look a little dazed as if he was in shock. Seeing him like that reawakened all the hate Anya had for Corinne. She immediately turned around and glared at Corinne, who was standing at the door with Jason, before rushing over to her like a

bull who saw red.

“Corinne, why? Why did you hurt my son? I can accept anything you dish out to me but how can you do something like this to a child so young? Have you no heart?”

“Well, it’s ’cause Jeremy’s watching over him so I’m not worried about him! Besides, any good mother would make sure the culprit who did this to her son gets her just punishment!”

Corinne looked at her disdainfully. “Miss Anya, you’re behaving like a crazy woman right now. Aren’t you afraid of ruining your demure image?”

Anya suddenly felt like she was just slapped in the face. She was in so much of a hurry to get rid of Corinne that she forgot to keep up her usual facade. “Ahem! It’s understandable for a mother to behave like this when it comes to protecting her kid. I can guarantee you no mother would stay calm and gentle in a moment like this. I’ll fight anyone who dares to hurt my son!”

Corinne chuckled coldly. “Then you should fight yourself since you’re the one who hurt him. the most.”

This caused Anya to descend into hysterics. She glowered at Corinne and said, “How can you show any remorse? You’re an evil, evil woman! Why did you hurt my son?”

She kept shaking Corinne non-stop as if she went insane.

Annoyed, Corinne pushed her away as if she was a disgusting piece of trash. For the life of her, she could understand why Anya insisted on pouring her pointless anger on her.
