The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1405

Corinne pulled up Joey, who was playing with his toys, from the carpeted floor. "Let's put away your toys. We'll have a walk outside the garden," she said.

Joey nodded obediently. He put away his toys and ran back toward Corinne to hold her hand. "Auntie Sissy! Walk! Walk!"

Corinne got up and was about to take him outside when a servant came in and reported, "Mister Lucas, the Holdens are here."

"Who exactly?" asked Lucas with a raised eyebrow. 'It can't be Jeremy since he's abroad.'

"It's Miss Francine and her grandmother. They said they're here to see Miss Corinne," answered the servant.

Corinne stopped walking when she heard that. She knew the Holdens were not welcome there since there was bad blood between them and the Riveras. It was only because of Corinne that Lucas was willing to put aside his grudge for the time being.

Lucas frowned and turned toward Corinne with a look that said he would defer to her on this matter.

After thinking about this, she said, "Well, they're already here. We might as well let them in."

As much as Lucas was unwilling to do so, he still gestured with his chin for the servant to follow Corinne's order.

Seeing this, the servant quickly went to bring Francine and Pamela in.

Even though Lucas let Corinne had her way, he had no intention of staying to meet the guests. Thus, he picked up his suit jacket and stroked her on the head, saying, "Have fun at home. I'm off to work now. Call me if you need anything."
