The Day I Kissed An Older Man

“Okay, then,” said Jason. “You can take off your mask in the car. You don’t need to wear it anymore.”
Corinne closed her eyes as she rested. She was too lazy to move, so she said to him, “I’ll take it off after we’re back.”
Jason could see how tired she was, so he kept quiet and drove faster until they reached the expressway.
Two hours later, they finally arrived at the villa.
Corinne was sleeping throughout the journey, but she did not feel comfortable at all. She had a bad dream where Jeremy would
not let her leave and insisted on taking her baby away.
In the end, Jason woke her up.
When she opened her eyes and saw Jason’s face very close to hers, she instinctively pushed him away and asked, “What are
you doing?”
Jason smiled innocently. “We’re home. You didn’t respond when I called you several times, so I decided to come closer and call
you again.”
Corinne sat up straight and looked out the car window.
They had arrived. She had been living there for the past six months, but she did not consider that home. She simply regarded it
as temporary lodging.
“Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to send me back. I’ll head in now. You should go back before it’s dark,”
said Corinne politely in a somewhat distant manner.
Jason frowned. “You can be serious, right? Driving for over two hours is pretty tiring, you know. Aren’t you going to let me rest a
bit before I make the trip back?”
Corinne did not want him to go in, but she knew that such long-distance driving was undoubtedly very tiring. In the end, she
agreed and said, “Fine. You may come in and have a rest. I’m just worried that it’ll be dangerous for you to drive such a long way
back once it gets dark later.”Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates...
Jason smiled. “Not bad! There’s some progress at last! I’m glad you’re showing concern about my safety!”
Corinne ignored him. She opened the car door and got off.

As soon as she got back to the villa, she drank a large glass of warm water to calm herself. Although the scare from when she
saw Jeremy had disappeared, the trauma of having him take the child away from her still lingered in her mind. Even though it
was only a dream, her mind was not in a good place.
Jason looked at her in distress and said, “Did that short meeting have such a big impact on you?”
Corinne glanced at Jason. “It’s not because of that at all. I had a nightmare while you were driving, so I wanted to drink some
water to calm myself.”
Jason looked at her intently. “What sort of nightmare? Tell me. I’ll help share the burden for you.”
Corinne shook her head. “It’s just a nightmare. If I can’t even handle a nightmare, how can I ever survive this ordeal?”
Jason was amused. “Makes sense. Anyway, you should take off the fake face! We’re already back, and you don’t need to worry
that someone else might see you. It looks weird!”
Corinne had forgotten that she was still wearing a fake face and immediately took it off. The material was soft enough to feel like
real skin, and her face was covered in a thin layer of sweat.
Jason handed her two tissues. “You don’t need to meet Jeremy anymore after today. Once you’ve given birth to your baby, I’ll
find a way to change your identity and send you abroad without the Holdens’ knowledge.”
Corinne looked at him gratefully. “Thank you. If you need my help in the future, I promise I’ll do my best to help you.”
Jason pursed his lips and said pointedly, “You don’t need to thank me all the time. I’m only doing it out of pure selfishness.”
‘Selfishness?’ Corinne was stunned for a moment. “What do you mean?”
