The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1259

Corinne only snapped out of her trance when the elevator floor indicator panel was at ‘1’. She exhaled deeply out

of relief and was about to close the door when someone suddenly appeared in front of her.

“Miss Corinne, Mister Jeremy had asked me to deliver this soup to you,” said Tommy.

He was holding a thermos in his hand. He must have been waiting outside the door the whole time.

‘Jeremy brought me soup too?’ She could feel her heart melting for him, but she quickly shook herself out of it. ‘No!

He didn’t bring the soup for me but for the baby inside of my belly!’

Corinne pushed away Tommy coldly. “No, thanks. I don’t want it.”

Tommy quickly shot out his hand to stop her from closing the door. “Miss Corinne, Mister Jeremy woke up early this

morning to make this soup for you. Won’t you at least try it?”

Annoyed at not being able to close the door, Corinne said angrily, “So what if he cooked it? No law out there says I

must eat whatever he cooks!”

“Mister Jeremy was worried you might get a nosebleed from drinking the soup Miss Pamela cooks for you, so he

studied all the recipes to make this soup for you. That’s how thoughtful he is. Can you please at least open it up to

see? I’ve been working for him for so many years, and this is the first time I’ve seen him cook anything for

anybody.”

Corinne was a little taken aback. She started to waver, but she was not completely moved. However, it looked like

Tommy was not going to let her close the door unless she accepted the soup.

After thinking about it, Corinne took the thermos from Tommy’s hand. “Fine, I’ll take the soup.”

Tommy smiled. “Thank you, Miss Corinne. I knew you’d take it.”

Corinne looked at him with disgust. “Why are you still here?”

“Mister Jeremy asked me to stay here to protect me.”

Corinne’s lips twitched. ‘Protect me? More like making sure I don’t hang out with other men.’

“My house is very safe. I don’t need any protection. Please leave.”

Tommy shook his head. “I can’t. Mister Jeremy is going to punish me if I leave.”

Corinne was at the end of her patience. “Just what the hell is he trying to do?”

“Miss Corinne, Mister Jeremy is just worried about you. He asked me to stay here to take care of you since you

wouldn’t go home with him.”

Corinne scoffed coldly. ‘He’s worried about me? More like he’s worried about the baby.’

Since she could not chase Tommy away or close the door, she decided to let things be. She carried the thermos into

the apartment.

Seeing this, Tommy took it as her permitting him to go into the apartment as well. He walked in and closed the door.

However, he did not take a step further after that. He simply stood respectfully at the door.

Corinne decided to ignore him. She placed the thermos on top of the table before going back to her room.

‘This is getting more chaotic by the minute! What the hell is Jeremy thinking? Does he intend to keep me under

house arrest in my own apartment until the baby is born? Who the hell does he think he is?’

Meanwhile, Aaron brought Annie to a really romantic restaurant. Even though it was broad daylight, the restaurant

managed to create the atmosphere of a candlelit dinner.
