The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1448

Corinne indulged her children's requests most of the time. She patted Bryan's head and said, "Okay. Don't get so anxious for now, though. I'll ask Aunt Francine and Uncle Chester to check if we can get one of those kites for you from a nearby place."

Bryan nodded enthusiastically. "Okay!"

Corinne turned to Francine and said, "Could you and Chester look around and see if there's a vendor selling kites nearby?"

That would be the perfect opportunity for Francine and Chester to have some alone time, which did not come easy with the three little kids occupying most of their time.

Francine was undoubtedly delighted. After agreeing with a nod, she glanced shyly at Chester and said, "I'd have to trouble you to find a nearby kite vendor with me!"

Chester smiled and extended his hand toward her, saying, "It's no trouble at all. Let's go."

Francine was a little stunned at the sight of her crush's hand reaching out to her. She could not believe that Chester would offer to hold her hand! Flattered by his gesture, she reached out in a daze and held his hand.

Chester took her hand gently and led the way, with Corinne breathing a sigh of relief at how their relationship was progressing.

Corinne then remembered the strange man in the wheelchair from earlier and glanced back in that direction. However, the place was empty, and the man was gone. Corinne could not help but experience an odd sensation and made a peculiar association in her mind.

Then, her daughter Christine approached her and asked with an adorable and naive expression. "Is Aunt Francine in love with Uncle Chester?"

Corinne snapped back to reality. She was amazed that her three-year-old daughter would know what the phrase 'in love' meant. She pursed her lips and looked at her daughter's innocent expression. "Do you know what 'in love' means?"
