The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1520
Corinne did not know how to answer Jeremy. 'Glad to see he's as annoying as ever,' she thought sarcastically.
Jeremy's eyes suddenly turned sharp as he heard footsteps coming from outside the bedroom.
"She's coming. You better go now. I promise I won't do anything the next time you want to strangle me to death," urged Jeremy.
Corinne, too, heard the approaching footsteps, but she was in no hurry to leave.
"Okay. I'll do that when you've regained your memory."
The doorknob was already turning when she said that.
There was no doubt about it-Sophia was coming in!
Jeremy turned to look at the door and then at Corinne, but she was already gone. All that was left in her place was a cool breeze
blowing in from the open window.
When Sophia walked in, all she saw was Jeremy leaning against the headboard.
She turned on the lights and asked curiously, "Zachary, why aren't you sleeping yet?"
Jeremy looked up at her calmly. "Why aren't you sleeping either? Why did you come in here?"
"I've come to see if Benjamin's blanket has fallen off. You know he has a habit of kicking off his blanket. I'm worried he'll catch a
cold since the weather's been colder than normal for the past two days," replied Sophia.

"I see. That's very thoughtful of you."
Jeremy was already used to her checking in on them from time to time since that was what she had done for the past three
years.
Even though they did not sleep in the same room, Sophia would often check on him in the middle of the night or right after he
had fallen asleep.
Jeremy did not know whether she really did it out of concern for Benjamin, but what he was sure of was that Sophia was
paranoid as heck.
Sophia smiled. "Of course. I'm Benjamin's mother after all. If I don't care about him, who will? By the way, why didn't you close
the window before you sleep?"
Zachary glanced at the open window. "I did, but the wind must've blown it open. I was just about to close it when you came in."
Sophia walked over to the window. "Let me do it for you. Next time, give me a call if the same thing happens again. I'm a light
sleeper, so I'll definitely hear the phone ringing."
"I don't mind doing it myself since I don't want to disturb your sleep."
Sophia closed the window and walked over to his bed. She smiled sweetly at him and said, "Zachary, you don't have to be a
stranger toward me. We're married after all. Heck, we even have a kid together. I know you don't remember anything from the
past, but Benjamin's existence should be proof enough, right? I'm your wife, so it's only natural for me to do stuff for you and
Benjamin."
Jeremy nodded. "I know. But I've already caused you enough burden as it is with my useless legs, so I really don't want to add
any more to that."
Sophia grabbed his hand. "You're not a burden at all, Zachary! I love you, and that means I'll be more than happy to do anything
for you. You don't have to feel ashamed about your body. I promise I'm going to get the best
doctor to help you walk again!"
Jeremy gently pulled back his hand and straightened 'Benjamin's' blanket." Thank you. I understand where you're coming from,
but now it's not the time to talk about these things. You should go back to sleep, Sophia. We don't want to wake Benjamin, do

we?"
In the end, he was still as distant to her as ever.
Sophia was crestfallen. For some reason, she could not shake the anxiety that gripped her moments before. She tossed and
turned in her bed. Failing to fall asleep, she decided to check on Benjamin, only to find him awake as well.
She was more than willing to sleep in the same room as him, even if he could not do the deed. However, Jeremy did not want to,
giving her the reason that it would bother their son's sleep.
