The Day I Kissed An Older Man by Cher the Cherished

Chapter 1044

Corinne raised her eyebrow calmly when she saw Aaron walking in. ‘What’s he doing here?’

Even though Francine was stunned by Aaron’s good looks, she did fall head over heels for him as her heart already

belonged to Chester, even if it was one-sided love at the moment.

Glaring at him, she asked rudely, “And just who are you? Didn’t anyone teach you to knock before coming in?

Seriously, the nerve of you.”

Aaron smiled at Francine before turning to Corinne, saying coyly, “Well, I never had to knock before going into her

bedroom, so why do I need to start now?”

Hearing this, Francine grew alert. She looked at Aaron from head to toe before looking probingly at Corinne.

“What?! Are you her ex-boyfriend?”

Aaron said nothing. He simply smiled ambiguously instead.

Francine assumed she had guessed right. She put her hands on her hips. “I can’t believe you, Corinne! How can you

take the opportunity to meet with your old flame while Jeremy is on his business trip? Do you not love him

anymore?”

Corinne gave Francine a side-eye before continuing to massage her temples tiredly. “Ignore him. I don’t have an

ex-boyfriend. Even if I have, he certainly won’t be one.”

Francine was a little taken aback by Corinne’s response, but she was not all that convinced.

Aaron frowned unhappily. “Boss, do you have to put me down like that in front of others? Am I not pretty enough

for you?”

Corinne was used to Aaron’s vainness and silliness, so she did not think too much of it. Changing the topic, she

asked, “What are you doing here? You should be working at this hour.”

Aaron shrugged. He walked over and looked at the injury on her head with concern. “I couldn’t focus on work after I

heard you got hurt, so I came to make sure you’re okay.”

“I’m fine, so you can go back to work now. You need to work on your work ethic, you know that?”

Corinne secretly glanced at Annie to observe her reaction while she was talking.

From the moment Aaron came in, Annie’s lovestruck eyes never left him. She quickly put away her previous

shrewish behavior and said demurely, “How nice of you to visit Corinne, Mister Aaron. She’s about to have her

breakfast, so why don’t you join her? You’re about to be in for a real treat ’cause these are all my mom’s signature

dishes.”

Francine found it weird that Annie would suddenly speak so gently, so she quietly observed Annie’s expression. She

could instantly tell Annie had a major crush on Aaron.

‘Ah, so this is the type of guy she likes. Hehe! My Chester is so much better looking than him, though.’

Aaron smiled at Annie. “That’s okay. I already ate with friends before I came.”

“Oh… Alright, then,” said Annie disappointedly. “If that’s the case, why don’t you stay for a bit to have a chat?”

After saying that, Annie brought over a chair for Aaron to sit on.

“Thank you,” said Aaron after sitting down unceremoniously before turning his attention back to Corinne. “Boss,

how are you feeling? Does your head hurt?” he asked worriedly.

In contrast to his attitude toward Corinne, it was obvious Aaron only treated Annie with the bare minimum of

politeness.

Corinne shook her head. “No, it doesn’t.”

“Did you get hurt anywhere else? Don’t hide anything from me, okay?”
