The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 544

Chapter 544

“Sure thing.” The software engineer immediately sat back down in front of the computer to get the surveillance footage Corinne asked for.

Doing that required some time and Corinne was a little tired of standing so she looked around the restaurant for an empty chair she could pull over and sit. However, while she was doing that, she happened to meet Jeremy’s deep, dark eyes.

Jeremy followed them to the restaurant because the matter involved his son but he did not insert himself in their investigation. Instead, he situated himself at a round table not far from where they were and lit up a cigarette languidly as though the whole thing had nothing to do with him and he was only there to watch the show.

The cigarette smoke obscured Jeremy from Corinne so it was hard for her to tell what he was

thinking. She was starting to wonder whether he cared about Anya and Joey at all.

Suddenly, someone passed her a bottle of mineral water. This pulled her out of her thoughts; she looked down at the bottle of mineral water and then up at Jason’s alluring and gentle smiling face.

“Thank you,” she said as she accepted the bottle of mineral water. She was indeed thirsty.

Oliver immediately shook his head so hard that his eyeballs nearly fell from their socket. “No! It wasn’t me! I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

Corinne slowly twisted the cap of the mineral water bottle open while she languidly said, ” Oliver, you’re already caught by the security camera to have gone into Bamboo Forest after we left and you’re still trying to worm your way out of this?”

“I went in to clean the place up!”

“Oh, really? only needed one minute to do that? I must applaud you for your efficiency but why did you lie just now? Why did you say you didn’t go in after we left when you did? What are you trying to hide?”
