The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 414
Anya had never seen Lucas and Sunny fight like that, so she did not know what to do.
Everyone knew Sunny lived in fear of Lucas. In fact, even if Lucas said one plus one equals three, Sunny would not dare say
otherwise. It was unprecedented for Sunny to contradict Lucas like that, and it was all Corinne’s fault.
The onlookers watched excitedly from a distance as the argument unfolded. Anya did not want her family to become a
laughingstock, so she tugged on Lucas’ sleeves.
“Lucas, forget it. Sunny’s right. I must’ve misunderstood Corinne’s intention. I’m sure she didn’t mean to kick me, so please don’t
fight with Sunny anymore. He’s still at that age when boys are stupid...”
Anya slowly got up and sighed with resignation.
“I’ll go upstairs to talk to Corinne and Jeremy. It’s best if we clear up this misunderstanding as soon as possible.”
She then walked toward the stairs to find Corinne and Jeremy. To be honest, she had long wanted to do that.
Earlier, she pretended to be sick so that Jeremy would stay with her. However, he left without turning back to go upstairs to look
for Corinne as soon as Anya got ‘better’.
The thought of Corinne and Jeremy alone in the room made her feel like a boulder that she could not push away was pressing
on her chest.
‘Corinne might start undressing because she wants to get out
of her wet clothes... Then, sparks will fly and they’ll start... No! Jeremy is mine. I won’t allow them to do that!’
It was a good thing she had a valid excuse to go check on them.
However, Lucas could not help but frown with worry when he saw his fragile sister walking up the stairs alone. He then turned
and glared at that idiot brother of his.
“Sunny, what’s wrong with you? Not only are you bad at your studies but now you’ve teamed up with an outsider to torment your
sister?”

Sunny thought that Lucas’ words were a little unfair.
“No, Lucas. You know very well that I’ll always protect Anya no matter what, but Corinne isn’t really the kind of person you think
she is! You have no idea how many times I pestered Corinne because of Anya but she still helped me in my time of need!
“I can say with absolute certainty that she’s one of the good ones. I’ll follow Anya upstairs to look for Corinne too and ask her
what happened. Like I said, there must be a
misunderstanding in all of this!”
He then turned around and followed Anya up the stairs. He had two reasons for doing that.
One, he did not want to be alone with Lucas, and two, he wanted Corinne to try the chicken wings he had grilled so that she
would have no choice but to bow down to his amazing cooking skills.
Lucas remained seated on the fabric armchair with a refined but unfriendly expression on his face. He pinched the space
between his eyebrows wearily.
“What am I going to do with them? My sister is infatuated with a man who will never return her feelings, while my brother is a
heartless son of a gun! When will they ever make me stop worrying about them?’
The thought made him miss Luna even more. ‘If only Luna was here. She’ll never make me worry about her like this. That kid
has always been more sensible, tougher, and smarter than other kids her age. Why, after taking the IQ test, the doctor confirmed
that her IQ was higher than average, making her one of those rare gifted children. She knew almost all the words in the
dictionary even before she started kindergarten.’
Lucas remembered when he was still studying in public elementary school, his mother would wait with Luna in her arms at the
intersection near their house for him to come home on the school bus.
Every time the school bus arrived, Luna would jump down from their mother’s arm and stumble toward him. She looked so cute
with her round little belly, and she would never cry when she fell down. In fact, she would just get up, pat the dirt away, continue
to run happily toward him, throw herself into his arms, and call out for him in that baby voice of hers.
His life was happy and simple back then. Though it did not last for long, the memories could still warm him up whenever he
thought of it.

‘I wonder where Luna is right now... I do hope she and mother are happy.’
Losing his mother and sister would forever be the most
painful thing to Lucas. He hated himself for being too young to help his mother. If not, she would not have left the house
out of disappointment. If not, she would not have disappeared with Luna. If not...
While Lucas was taking a trip down memory lane, the other people had gathered into small groups to gossip about what
happened.
