The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1327

After catching her breath in the car, Corinne sat still and said nothing.

Sophia turned to look at her. “Corinne, why aren’t you saying anything? Aren’t you going to ask me where we’re

going?”

Corinne kept her eyes on the road ahead. “You told me we’re going to the crime scene to look for clues, right?”

“Aren’t you scared, then?” asked Sophia curiously.

“You can stop the car and get out now if you’re scared,” said Corinne impassively. “Give the car and address to me,

and I’ll go there by myself!”

Sophia was a little taken aback. “I’m not scared. I’m hoping that Jeremy is still alive and that the dead body doesn’t

belong to him. And for this, I’m not scared of anything!”

“Then stop talking and step on it.”

Sophia was speechless. She glanced at Corinne’s huge belly and thought, ‘She seems like she isn’t worried about

the baby at all. So this is the length she’s willing to go to for Jeremy… Heh. Despite saying otherwise, she still cares

about him after all.’

Sophia had guessed that Corinne would escape while Lucas was out getting water for Corinne from the pantry

room. That was why Sophia tried to stall him by talking to him. That way, Corinne would have more time to escape.

Knowing that Corinne was all over the place after she found out about Jeremy’s death, Sophia decided there was no

point in talking to her. Thus, the two women drove on in silence to the abandoned factory where the explosion

happened.

…

It was not difficult to imagine just how powerful the explosion must have been when Corinne and Sophia saw the

aftermath.

Corinne got out of the car and, with the moonlight, tried to look for some signs of life through the debris. She tried

to come up with all the possibilities of how Jeremy could still be alive, but seeing the destruction before her, she

knew there was no hope of that happening.

‘If Jeremy was near this area when the explosion happened, he couldn’t have survived the explosion,’ lamented

Corinne.

“Are you sure Jeremy was here when the explosion happened? Even if his car and ID card were found here, it

doesn’t mean he came here,” said Corinne. There were so many details she still did know what of.

“Corinne, you don’t know how much I wished Jeremy wasn’t here when the explosion happened either. But the

police had footage of Jeremy in his car when he came out to take a break at a rest stop.”

Corinne frowned. “Has the police found out who did this? I mean, why would Jeremy suddenly come to this god-

forsaken place in the first place?”

Even if it was as Lucas said, that Jeremy’s half-brothers wanted him dead, he—with his intelligence—would never

fall into such a simple trap.

Sophia shook her head. “No one knows why he came here. The only things the police found were Jeremy’s ID card

and a burnt phone on the dead body that was blown to pieces. They’re still looking for the cause of the explosion.

We can only come home at night since the place will be filled with police officers in the morning.”

Corinne fell silent. ‘So that’s why he hasn’t been replying to my messages for the past two days…’ Her heart ached

so much that she started to find it hard to breathe.

‘No, Corinne. Now’s not the time to wallow in sorrow. I have to find out who did this as soon as possible and to make

them pay! I must avenge Jeremy for the sake of our baby!’

She took a deep breath and carefully walked through the explosion site with the help of her phone flashlight to look

for clues.
