The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1442

Francine asked, “Do you suspect her husband might be…”

Corinne had her suspicions, but she dismissed them as thoroughly illogical. It could not

have been Jeremy. Even if Sophia detained Jeremy and eluded their pursuit, he would

never be willing to be with—and father a child to—such a despicable woman.

“Forget it. I don’t even know why I have this suspicion,” said Corinne. “She said that her

husband’s surname is Finnix. We’re probably overthinking it.”

Corinne was as yet unaware that she had given birth to triplets. Everyone was afraid that

the revelation would upset her, so they all agreed not to mention it to her. Francine was

one of those who were in the know, and her first instinct was to suspect that Sophia’s child

was, in fact, Corinne’s.

Francine gritted her teeth warily. “I’m going to find out who her husband is.”

Corinne did not pay too much attention to Francine’s reaction and sipped her juice with a

straw. She contemplated the situation, firmly believing Jeremy’s character was strong

enough that he would not willingly stay with Sophia, let alone be controlled by her and

father her children. That being said, the reason for Sophia’s return to the country needed

further investigation.

After finishing their meal with the kids, Francine stayed behind and said that she was

going to a friend’s house for a while. She said that she would take a taxi to her

destination. Corinne reminded her not to be out too late and brought her three children

back.

Francine headed straight to Newmoon Group.

When Xante returned to her office from a meeting, she found Francine waiting outside her

office with a somber expression.

“Why are you here, Miss Francine? Is there something you’d like to discuss?” Xante asked,

adjusting her gold-rimmed spectacles.

Francine stood up and nodded solemnly. “Yes. Something happened.”

‘Something happened?’ Xante thought. The first thing that came to mind was that it was

related to Corinne. A frown appeared on her face as she ushered Francine into the office.

“Please have a seat. What did you mean by ‘something happened’?”

Francine remained standing as she said, “Corinne and I took the three kids out to have

fun, and she mentioned to me that she saw Sophia at the kindergarten entrance.”

The long-forgotten name Sophia startled Xante, who raised an eyebrow and asked, “How

did she react upon seeing Sophia? What has Sophia done to my boss?”

Francine shook her head. “She hasn’t done anything. At least, not yet. Corinne told me

that Sophia was holding a child in her arms. Sophia also claimed to be married, and her

husband’s last name is Finnix! We’ve been keeping tabs on Sophia’s movements for years,

right? Did you find out about that marriage? Who is her husband? When did she have that

child?”

Xante frowned. “She has a child? We’ve had people monitoring her and the Adam Group

for so long, but we haven’t detected anything unusual yet. Adam is pretty skilled at

counter-surveillance as well and frequently brings our men around in circles. Furthermore,

Sohpia employed her private jet when traveling, and their family even had their own

airport. This makes it very challenging for us to gain access to such a location.”
