The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Chapter 732
Fifteen minutes later, Lucas brought out a hot bowl of oatmeal and placed it gently in front of Corinne. “Here. Try some.”
Corinne looked at the oatmeal before picking up the spoon to stir it, revealing some dried nuts and berries within it. She looked at
Lucas and asked, “Oatmeal with nuts and berries?”
Lucas nodded. “Yeah. You need all the vitamins you can get now that you’re carrying a baby inside of you. This used to be your
favorite when you were...”
Hearing this, Corinne suddenly felt a shockwave coursing through her body, causing her to knit her brows together and her eyes
to waver as the realization dawned on her.
Lucas found it hard to continue when he saw the frown on Corinne’s face so he stopped speaking, worried that revealing what he
knew then would affect her appetite. “Ahem. What I meant to say was, eat the oatmeal while it’s still hot.”
Corinne regained her senses and said, “Thank you.” She narrowed her eyes, scooped up a spoonful of oatmeal, blew on it
before putting it in her mouth. ‘Oh my god! This is delicious!” The oatmeal was unexpectedly up to her taste and the sweetness
level was just right. However, she had no recollection of ever eating this when she was young.
Lucas sat back down in his original seat and gently looked at her. His eyes seemed to contain within a thousand storms as he
tried to suppress all the emotions of finally finding his long- lost sister.
“How’s the taste?” he asked softly and tentatively.
Corinne gave him a nod of approval and was about to praise him when...
“Lucas! What are you doing here?” cried Anya from the stairs. She quickly ran down the stairs, made her way to the dining room,
and looked at Lucas curiously.
Lucas was surprised to see Anya coming down from the stairs too. “Anya, what are you doing here?” he asked with a stern frown
on his face.
Anya averted her gaze out of guilt. “Umm... I came here to find Francine. What about you? Why did you come?”

She found it extremely strange that Lucas would show his face around the Holdens’ mansion. Francine, who had followed Anya
down the stairs, immediately knew the reason for Lucas’ visit as soon as she laid eyes on him. “Need you ask, Anya? Lucas
must’ve come here to bring you home,” she said confidently.
After thinking about it, Anya thought that must be it too; otherwise, what other reason would be strong enough for Lucas to
personally come here to the Holdens’ mansion. Even though she had no idea how Lucas knew she was there, one thing she was
sure of was Lucas must have been worried sick about her to make him come all the way to bring her home.
This made Anya very happy since she thought Lucas was still mad at her for what happened to Joey yesterday. Now she could
finally rest easy with the knowledge that no matter what, her brother would always believe her, forgive her, and love her.
Corinne stopped speaking and put all of her attention on finishing the bowl of oatmeal in
front of her the moment Anya and Francine came into the dining room.
