The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1325

Corinne looked at Lucas serenely and called him again. “Lucas.”

Lucas was pleasantly surprised. He was so excited that his hands started trembling. “Corinne, can you please call

me again? I didn’t hear it the first time.”

Corinne frowned, but she did as she was told. “Lucas, I want to eat cream puffs.”

Lucas was so touched that his eyes became red. “Okay. I’ll get someone to buy it for you right away!”

Corinne nodded docilely. “Okay. I’m somewhat thirsty too, so can you please get me some water?”

Lucas quickly stood up. “Sure! I’ll go get you a glass of water right now!”

He looked around the empty room and saw there was no drinking water since Corinne had just moved in. Out of

habit, he turned and wanted to have Edmund get some drinking water, but he realized Edmund was still not back

yet.

“Wait right here, Corinne. I’ll go get Sunny to get you some water,” said Lucas.

Corinne nodded docilely again.

Lucas brought out the thermos from the hospital room and was about to order Sunny to get him some warm

drinking water when he realized Sunny was not outside.

‘Where did that brat go? He’s never there when you need him,’ thought Lucas.

He looked back at Corinne, who was still lying on her hospital bed. Even though he was worried about her, he

thought that it would be alright to leave her alone since she sounded like she was over Jeremy’s death.

Thus, he closed the hospital room door and walked to the hospital pantry to get her some warm water. However,

the moment he reached the hospital pantry doorway, he ran into Sophia.

Sophia was looking into all the hospital rooms along the corridor, but she immediately trotted over to Lucas when

she saw him. “Mister Lucas, can you please tell me where Corinne’s room is?” she asked.

Lucas could not help but put his guard up when talking to her. “How do you know she’s in the hospital?”

Sophia smiled bitterly as she explained, “Well, you know how I was dragged off from your place this afternoon?

After I went home, the more I thought about it, the more I felt I should tell Corinne about what happened to Jeremy.

I went back to your place later at night. Before I could even ring the doorbell, I saw your car speeding off.

“So I asked your butler, and he said Corinne has been rushed off to the hospital…but he didn’t say which. I then

guessed you’d bring her to the nearest hospital, so here I am. How is she doing right now? Is she okay?”

Lucas narrowed his eyes. “Drop the act, Miss Sophia.”

Sophia looked at him innocently. “What do you mean? I’m not acting at all.”

Lucas smiled coldly at her. “Don’t pretend you don’t know how Corinne ended up in the hospital. Didn’t you go to

my house in the afternoon with the sole purpose of provoking her? I’ve questioned the servants, and they told me

that Corinne found out about Jeremy’s death from some fliers.

“Just how stupid do you think I am, Miss Sophia? Nobody has ever dared to distribute fliers around my house unless

they have some hidden agenda. Plus, the Holdens would never do this sort of sh*t. Who else could be behind the

fliers but you?”
