The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 764

Just when Lucas was staring at the photo in a trance…

"Hey Jason, were you guys taking pictures?" said Anya curiously from behind Jason. She came just in time to have caught a glimpse of the photos in Jason's phone.

Jason turned and smiled at her. "Yeah. Do you want to take one with us, too?"

Anya shook her head. "No, thanks. I didn't put any makeup on today, so I'll look ugly in the photos."

"Nonsense. You're beautiful even without makeup on," said Jason in a gentlemanly manner.

Annie rolled her eyes and poked her tongue out at Anya while muttering to herself, "Oh, please. I can't believe she has the cheek to say she doesn't have makeup on when her face is caked with it. What does she think we are? Blind?"

Corinne sipped her juice with a bored expression, so used to Anya's theatrics.

Anya heard what Annie said. She threw a dirty glance at both Annie and Corinne before realizing Lucas was there, too. "Oh hey, Lucas. You're here too?"

Lucas' face darkened at Anya's sudden arrival. 'She should be at home at this hour,' he thought, but out loud, he asked her, "When did you come?"

Anya walked over, sat next to Lucas, and leaned her body against his as she usually would. "Lucas, Joey has been crying nonstop for Jeremy, so I called him to ask about his whereabouts. He said he was in Lunar Century Manor, so I thought I'd bring Joey here to see him."

Lucas made no move to hold her in his arms. On the contrary, his face became stern when he asked, "You brought Joey here, too?"

Her words sounded polite enough, but it was obvious she was trying to show her who was boss.

Corinne smiled and was about to say something when Annie rolled her eyes and said fiercely, "Oh, don't you worry, Miss Anya. We won't be shy at all. This place might belong to you Riveras, but for this one night, it belongs to my Uncle Jeremy since he paid for the right to use it! In other words, we're your customer, and as the saying goes, the customer is king and a king never bargains!"

Anya's face immediately turned pale, and even her signature fake smile stiffened. "You… You're right. I was worrying for nothing."

Annie was Jeremy's only niece and the two of them had a very close relationship, so it would not benefit Anya if she fought with Annie. Hence, she quickly left the scene before things got out of control.

"Stop right there," said Corinne all of a sudden.
