The Day I Kissed An Older Man

“I told you I’m fine. Besides, why did you come alone? Where’s Xante?” asked Corinne.
Based on her understanding of her two childhood friends, they would never come alone in this kind of situation.
Aaron smiled. “They went to get some food for you from your favorite tapas restaurant. There was a long line since the
restaurant was so busy. I don’t like lining up, so I came first.”
‘They? Who’s they?’
“Who’s Xante with?”
Annie poured some water for Aaron. “Here you go, Mister Aaron. Please have some water.”
“Thanks, Annie.” Aaron gracefully accepted the glass of water while answering, “Xante’s with my girlfriend.”
‘Girlfriend’. The word was like a stab in the heart for Annie. She looked at Aaron in disbelief, thinking she heard wrong.
However, Aaron did not look at her. Instead, he looked at Corinne with a smile. “They should be here soon. Boss, my girlfriend is
very nervous about meeting you, so please be kind to her, yeah? And please don’t tell her any embarrassing stories about me.”
Corinne had lost count of how many of Aaron’s girlfriends she met with over the years, so she was not that interested to meet
with this new one. She was, however, interested in Annie’s reaction.
She knew Annie had fallen head over heels for Aaron, and nothing Corinne said could ever convince her not to like him. Thus,
she was sure Annie must be very hurt to find out about Aaron’s new girlfriend.
As expected, Annie’s eyes started to turn red. She seemed a little bit at a loss for what to do, too.
“Hey, Annie. What’s wrong? Did you get the pins and needles?” asked Francine, who was not exactly known for her ability to
read the room, when she saw Annie fidgeting.
Annie looked down in embarrassment. “E—Excuse me. I need to go to the restroom,” she said shakily before she ran out of the
room.
Seeing this, Corinne became worried. “Francine, go with Annie to make sure she’s okay. She doesn’t look too good.”
Francine pouted. “Corinne, are you trying to get me to leave so you can be alone with this man?”

Corinne frowned in annoyance. “Cut it out. Go check on Annie now. Your brother will kill you if anything happens to her.”
Bringing up Jeremy seemed to have done the trick as Francine immediately did what she was told, even though she did not care
about Annie at all.
After Francine went out, Corinne narrowed her eyes at Aaron. “You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you?”Books Chapters Are

Aaron shrugged innocently. “I’m not! My girlfriend is coming later; you’ll see for yourself. And you have my guarantee that she’s
prettier than all the previous ones!”
Corinne frowned. “I’m not interested in any of your girlfriends, Aaron. They never last more than a week with you anyway! I’m
asking you why you have to bring her when you know Annie is here!”
Aaron put up one hand. “I swear to god I have no idea Annie’ll be here. If I had known, I would’ve come at a different time. But, it
might be just as well since there’s a chance Annie might give up on me once she has met with my beautiful girlfriend. Isn’t that
what you want?”
Corinne just could not win with Aaron. “I did say you have to make her hate you in a way that doesn’t hurt her feelings. And
you’ve obviously failed at that.”
