The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 939

At this moment, however, Francine felt a little about her instead.

…

As soon as she got back into her room, Corinne took off her jacket, wormed under the blanket, and hugged her pillow.

Jeremy, too, took off his suit jacket and placed it on the sofa while loosening his tie with his other hand. "Don't take what Grandpa said to heart. He doesn't get a say about our relationship," he said in his deep voice.

Hearing this, Corinne lazily half-opened her eyes to look at him. "Are you serious? Weren't you the one who married a random girl you met not even for one second just because your grandfather pressured you to get married?"

Jeremy looked down at her. "Desperate time calls for desperate measures. He was critically ill then and refused to get an operation until I got married."

Corinne, still hugging the pillow, pouted and kicked his legs lightly. "What if he threatens you with his life again? Then you'll have no choice but to kick me out of the house."

Jeremy grabbed her restless feet and pulled her out of the blanket. He fell over her, trapping her between the bed and his body. "You're my universe now. Unless Grandpa is prepared to lose me, no one can ever kick you out of this house."

'He just said I'm his universe…' Corinne was shocked to hear him say that, but she quickly pretended to be annoyed. "Tsk! You men are all liars."

Jeremy pinched her nose. "So are you women! Why did you promise Grandpa you'll leave this house if you can't deliver what you promised?"

Corinne raised an eyebrow. "Mister, don't tell me you don't trust me to solve this matter efficiently."

Corinne was touched by his words, so much so that she felt like she was on cloud nine. "Ahem! Mister, why don't you take a shower now?"

Jeremy looked at her with blazing eyes. "How about you join me?"

Corinne's eyebrows shot up in alarm. "Here you go again, Mister!"

"I was just teasing you. I promise I won't do anything to you tonight." He then kissed the corner of her lips and got up to go to the bathroom.

Corinne sat up and checked her phone to see if there was any more news about her.
