The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1205

Corinne had serious doubts over whether everything that happened was just an illusion.

The pain from her pinch told her she was neither dreaming nor hallucinating.

Everything was real. Jeremy came, but he left without saying anything. It was unlike him not to get angry after

finding her.

Rather than bring her away, he knocked on the door and looked at her before leaving.

She could not understand what was going on.

Corinne came back to her senses as Jason’s cell phone was ringing. In her daze, she answered the call.

Jason’s gentle voice spoke from the other end. “I left my phone there by accident. Keep it safe for the moment, and

I’ll send someone over to get it from you tomorrow.” He had called his cell phone from his car.

“Okay,” Corinne replied emotionlessly and ended the call.

Her mind was a mess. She had never had such chaotic thoughts before.

‘Why did Jeremy even come here? I had to be thankful that Jeremy didn’t get angry or do anything to me. I should

be grateful that he didn’t drag me away and bring me back to the Holdens. But why do I feel so uncomfortable

deep down?’

The servants had no idea what had happened, but their attention was drawn to the mountain wind blowing in

through the door.

When they saw Corinne standing at the gate with her hair that had been disheveled by the wind, the servant

hurried over and closed the door. “It’s windy out here, Miss Corinne! Why are you standing there? You’ll catch a

cold! Please get some rest. We’ll call you once dinner is ready.”

Corinne turned around and went back to the room. Even though she was exhausted, she was unable to drift off to

sleep. Her mind was occupied with the scene from earlier, especially the way that Jeremy looked at her when they

were at the door.

He seemed to have smiled at her, but that smile was emotionless and instead was filled with sarcastic undertones.

‘What does that mean?’

Corinne felt so frustrated when she picked up the phone and called Xante. That was the first time in over six

months that she called Xante. She usually used codes to communicate via text because she was worried the

Holdens might discover her location.

However, Corinne no longer needed to be so careful. Jeremy already found her location.

The phone rang for quite a while before Xante finally picked up.

“Boss?” Xante’s voice sounded a little hoarse; as though she was uneasy.

Corinne asked worriedly, “What’s with your voice? Did something happen?”

Xante’s tone became a little more unnatural. “N—Nothing! Is there anything you need from me? I, uh…”

Corinne immediately had her guard up. “Where are you, and why is your voice like that? Are you in trouble?” Her

first instinct was to suspect Jeremy of sending someone over to make life difficult for Xante and Aaron. After all, it

was weird that he had not done anything to her earlier. In that case, he must have some other plan in motion

elsewhere. Based on what she knew of him, it was impossible for him not to have any reaction!

“Boss…” Xante mumbled hesitantly.
