The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1220

Meanwhile, Corinne and Jeremy were led to their table by the restaurant’s manager.

The manager pulled her chair out for her, but since she was in the eighth month of her pregnancy, the gap

between the chair and the table was still a little too narrow for her to fit in. She tried a few times to sit but to no

avail. She reached out her hand and intended to pull back the chair further.

However, before her hand even touched the chair, Jeremy pulled out the chair for her.

Stunned, she looked up at him.

Even though she still did not like him, she still thanked him politely.

Jeremy did not spare her a glance or say anything. He simply walked over to the seat across from her and sat.

The day before, the two of them sat down across from each other at the dining table and had a meal in the same

way. At the time, she wore a mask and thought she got away with it, so she ate her meal without any worries.

This time, it was different. She was sitting across from Jeremy, mask-free, so it would be difficult for her to pretend

everything was alright between them.

Not wanting to meet Jeremy’s gaze more than she had to, Corinne looked out of the restaurant and asked, “Why

aren’t Annie and Marcus coming in yet?”

She remembered Annie was next to her when she entered the restaurant, so where was she?

Jeremy’s gaze darkened. He sneered. “What? Is it torturous to be alone with me?”

Corinne was annoyed at his question. She glared at him, but she then smiled. “No. It’s not that. I’m just very hungry

and want to order as soon as possible, but it would be rude to order without them.”

Jeremy looked at her piercingly. Even though his expression remained impassive, his gaze had turned icy cold, so

much so that Corinne could not help but feel a chill run up her spine.

“When did you become so thoughtful, Miss Corinne? This isn’t like you at all. After all, you’ve always done what you

wanted without caring about other people’s feelings,” he said mockingly. “Here, let me get the waiter for you.”

He raised his hand to call over the waiter.

“Mister Jeremy, here’s the menu you’ve asked for,” said the waiter respectfully while presenting the menu.

Jeremy took the menu and ordered a few of Corinne’s favorite dishes. He then turned to her and remarked, “Oh, I

nearly forgot. Your taste must’ve changed. Do you want to order anything else?”

Corinne was speechless. She could not help but feel he was taking a jab at her. She decided to let it slide, however;

it was not like she came to eat. “No, thanks.”

Jeremy handed the menu back to the waiter. “Serve these dishes first. We’ll add more when the others have

come.”

“Yes, Mister Jeremy.” The waiter left after that, leaving Corinne alone with Jeremy again.

She was starting to feel suffocated as Jeremy stared at her from time to time.

Jeremy took a sip of his water and narrowed his eyes at her. “Miss Corinne, judging by how healthy you look, you

must be living very well for the past six months.”

Corinne gave him a superficial smile. “Thanks for the compliment. It’s always important for me to take care of

myself well.”

“A very commendable habit. So what’s your plan from here on out?” asked Tyler impassively.
