The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1431

Francine frowned unhappily. "How is my family selfish?"

"Don't you think it's selfish to keep Corinne tied to your family? I mean, Jeremy has been missing for three years, yet Corinne still had to raise his kids and run the company, giving her no time to start her life afresh. What's even sadder about the whole thing is the two of them never even got legally married."

Francine knew Jason was right, but she still retorted through gritted teeth, "Jeremy is missing, not dead! He'll come back one day."

Jason smiled coldly. "He would've come back if he could. It's impossible for him to abandon Corinne and the babies, no?"

Not able to win the argument, Francine decided to just stop him from going into Corinne's office. "There's no use saying so much. In case you've forgotten, you're in my territory, so you can't go in unless I say you can!"

Jason took one step toward her. "What if I hit on you instead?"

"What? Did you say you were going to hit me? As if I'd believe you'll be stupid enough to do that here," said Francine fearlessly.

Jason took a few more steps toward her until she could feel his breath on her face.

"I'm not going to hit you. What I said was, what if I hit on you instead of Corinne since you don't like me courting her? I don't mind changing my target since you're getting more and more beautiful by the day."

He lifted her chin as he said that.

Francine already had someone she liked in mind, so she instantly exploded with rage at his touch. She slapped his hand away and shouted, "Get lost! Don't touch me with your stinky hand!"

She instinctively took a step back, allowing Jason to open Corinne's office door and slip in.

It was already too late by the time Francine realized what he was doing, so she had no choice but to stay there fuming.

Corinne was tapping away on her keyboard when she heard the door opening. She assumed it was Francine who had come in since there was no knock.

"What brings you here again?" she asked.
