The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1164

“Francine, you should be sleeping. Why are you here making a ruckus in your brother’s room?” came Pamela’s

tired voice from the hallway.

She could not sleep out of worry for Corinne, so she got up to see what was going on when she heard Francine

shouting. A minute later, she pushed open the door.

“Grandma, Jeremy has brought a woman home. She claims she’s a very good friend of his. I asked her to go sleep

in the guest room, but she insisted on sleeping here ’cause she doesn’t want the bad energy in the guest room to

affect her luck,” said Francine as soon as she saw Pamela. “Don’t you think she’s doing this on purpose?”

Pamela looked to where Francine was pointing and was stunned by the woman standing there.

“Hello, Grandma! I’m Sophia,” she greeted Pamela warmly. “Sorry if I’ve woken you up from your sleep.”

Pamela nodded after she snapped out of her shock. “You’re more than welcome to stay since you’re already here,

but not in this room. You can stay in Francine’s room, and she can go stay in the guest room.”

“Great! Thanks, Grandma,” said Sophia happily.

Francine was not happy about the arrangement at all. “Grandma, why did you say she can sleep in my room? I

won’t allow it!”

Pamela glared at her sternly. “Is this really the way to treat a guest?! She’s your brother’s friend and has come a

long way from abroad. The least we could do is to make her stay comfortable. Now, go and get your room ready

for Miss Sophia!”

Francine did not understand why Pamela would take an outsider’s side.

“But Grandma, Joey is sleeping in my room right now. It took me a lot coax him to sleep, so you can’t possibly

expect me to wake him up, right?”

“You don’t have to wake him up. Just quietly carry him to the guest room!”

“Grandma!”

“Just do as I say!”

As much as Francine was not happy with the outcome, she did not dare to defy Pamela’s order. Thus, she stomped

once and left the room.

‘Just who the heck is Sophia? Why does it seem like Grandma is pandering to her?’ she wondered.

After she left, Sophia smiled helplessly at Pamela. “Sorry for causing you trouble, Grandma.”

“Oh, it’s no trouble at all. It’s the least I can do after you helped our family so you go to Francine’s room to rest?

Just let the servants know if you need anything else.”

“Well, don’t mind if I do,” said Sophia cheerfully before following Francine out of the room.

Pamela remained standing where she was. She looked meaningfully at Jeremy and Corinne’s bed before leaving the

room and closing the door with a gentle click.

…

Meanwhile, Corinne was tossing and turning in the unfamiliar bedroom. Unable to sleep, she decided to play some

games on the tablet. She was at the climax of the game when the doorbell suddenly rang.

‘Who could it be?’ she thought with alarm. ‘Jason said no one has lived in this apartment for a long time, so who

would possibly come at this hour? I hope it’s not Jeremy’s men!’

She put down the tablet, got out of the bed quietly, and tiptoed to the main door’s peephole. However, the only

thing she saw was an eye staring back at her, giving her a shock.

Then, before she could figure out what was happening, she heard Jason’s cheeky voice coming from the corridor.

“Don’t worry. You can open the door. It’s me, Jason.”
