The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Before the servants could stop Phoebe, however, Lucas shouted, “Don’t stop her! Let her do whatever she wants!”
The servants stopped when they heard that.
Lucas chuckled coldly. “I’d like to see if a woman like her, who’s willing to do anything to achieve glory and wealth, would kill
herself.”
Seeing that no one was coming to stop her, Phoebe slowed down a little before bumping her head lightly against the pillar before
she pretended to pass out.
Lucas gestured with his chin for Edmund to check up on her.
Edmund put his finger under Phoebe’s nose for a few seconds before standing up and reporting, “Miss Phoebe is still breathing,
so she’s probably just fainted.”
A hint of disgust flashed across Lucas’ eyes. “Ugh. You two there, carry her back to her room. She has caused enough trouble
for the day.”
The servants quickly carried Phoebe away.
“Don’t worry, she’s not going to die that easily. Next time, just let her be if she uses the same tactic to threaten you all again.
She’ll come around by herself given enough time,” said Lucas to the rest of the servants.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join

“Yes, Mister Lucas!” chorused the servants.
After that, Lucas turned to Corinne. “Corinne, are you okay? I hope she didn’t scare you.”
“I’m okay. Actually, I’m quite used to her theatrics since this isn’t the first time I’ve seen her go crazy like that,” Corinne replied
with a shrug.
Lucas smiled wryly. “That’s true. Well, let’s forget about the whole thing. We should head back to finish our breakfast.”
Corinne waved her hand. “No, thanks. I kind of lost my appetite. You can go on without me. Jeremy and I will head back to our
room now.”

As much as Lucas wanted to talk with Corinne for a while longer, he did not stop her. “Okay, then. I’ll guess I’ll see you later
then,” he said with a nod.
Corinne turned to Jeremy. “Let’s go, Mister!”
Thus, Jeremy—with Joey still in his arms—followed her back to their room.
...
Joey fell asleep not long after they got back into their room. It was the best sleep he ever had since he knew he was safe with
Corinne.
Jeremy, who was tired out from catching the red-eye flight, soon fell asleep next to Joey too.
Corinne’s eyes softened when she saw the two of them sleeping soundly on the bed. Even though she was still angry at Jeremy,
she could not deny she still cared about him. Thus, she walked over and draped the blanket over him and Joey.
