The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1421

After lunch, Xante stepped out to take a call, leaving Corinne alone in the room when suddenly someone knocked on the door.

Knock! Knock!

Corinne knew Xante would not knock before coming in, so her eyes suddenly became filled with hope again. "Come in!"

Jason came in with a smile and carried a whole load of expensive supplements in his hands. "Hey, Corinne. It's been a while. Congratulations on giving birth to twins!"

Corinne's eyes instantly dimmed a little when she saw it was Jason. "Thanks," she said with a perfunctory smile.

Jason put down the bags of supplements on a table before walking over to her bed.

"Sorry for not visiting you sooner. I was quite busy with work and thought that your due date was still some time away. I came rushing over here right after finding out from Lucas that you've given birth."

Apart from his flirtatious nature, Corinne had always been grateful for all the help Jason had given her before. Thus, she nodded and said, "Thanks for taking the trouble to visit me. You don't have to do or buy me all these expensive supplements."

"How can I come without bearing gifts?" asked Jason with a smile. He then looked around the room and asked, "Where's Jeremy? Shouldn't he be here with you?"

Corinne fell silent.

Jason instantly knew something must have happened. "Ahem! How can he not be here for you during your delivery? Doesn't he know how to prioritize his wife and his work?"

Corinne was not in the mood to talk about Jeremy, so she tried to change the topic, "Mister Jason, feel free to take a bottle of mineral water there if you're thirsty. Sorry for not getting up to give you one because… Well, you know."

Jason smiled. "It's okay. I'm not thirsty."

There was an awkward silence as Corinne turned to look outside the window at the blue sky streaked with a plane's trail.
