The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1161

"You look happy. Who are you texting?" asked Lucas while holding a coffee cup after glancing at Jason. They were both in his office.

"No one. I mean, it was one of my employees. He had some questions about work," said Jason before he quickly put away his phone.

Lucas glanced at him again. "I'm surprised you still have time to drop by my office when you're so obviously busy with your work."

Jason picked up his coffee and took a sip before replying, "I wouldn't say it's busy work, but it sure is tedious. I'm so annoyed with it, so I came here to hang out with you."

Lucas did not have the luxury of hanging out with Jason since he would have to go to a meeting.

At that moment, Edmund knocked on the door and entered without waiting for Lucas to give his permission.

"Sir, something bad has happened!" he said nervously.

Lucas looked up at him. "What?"

Edmund glanced at Jason. He knew he was Lucas' best friend, so he did not bother to hide the news from him. "Apparently, Miss Corinne has gone missing."

Lucas' eyes immediately darkened. "What? How is that possible?"

"There have been more bodyguards than usual outside of the Holdens' mansion for the past two days, and we assumed it was because Mister Jeremy wanted to keep Corinne safe. This morning, Miss Corinne went to Central Park with Miss Pamela, but she somehow went missing. The Holdens have their entire house staff looking for her now."

Lucas slammed down his coffee cup angrily. "Grr! Corinne shouldn't have married that good-for-nothing who can't even keep his own wife safe. Edmund, take some men with you to look for her too. Bring her to me once you've found her. Under no circumstances should you take her back to the Holdens."

"Yes, Mister Lucas!"
