The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1645

After they exited the restaurant, they gathered in Lucas' car while waiting for Corinne to come back with Bryan. That was when they spotted Jeremy dining on the first floor.

Francine was anything but calm. She had resigned herself to the idea that her brother was gone forever, so seeing him in the flesh felt so surreal that she felt as if she had to touch him to truly believe his existence.

"You're all seeing it too, right? That's Jeremy! Jeremy is back! Let go of me! I'm going to ask him where he's been in the past three years!" Francine struggled to break free of their hold.

Xante adjusted her spectacles and spoke rationally, "Yes, we're seeing the same thing as you are. However, I suggest that you look at who's sitting across from him before you charge in blindly."

Francine thus looked over and noticed a woman sitting opposite Jeremy. It was none other than Sophia, and her presence only served to intensify Francine's anger.

"Hmph! I knew it had to be Sophia! She hid my brother for three years! That b*tch! I'm going to go in and give her a piece of my mind!"

Though Annie was just as excited to see Jeremy again, she was fortunately more composed than Francine and tried to persuade her against it. "Calm down, Francine! Corinne probably sent us a message and told us to leave because she saw Uncle Jeremy, too! Let's wait for her to come out before figuring out our next move. Haven't you noticed he's sitting in a wheelchair instead of a regular chair?"

Francine noticed that from the beginning, and that was precisely the reason for her urgency earlier. She could not fathom how a healthy man would end up in a wheelchair. She was convinced that Sophia had done something to harm Jeremy just so Sophia could keep him to herself. No other woman was as cunning and evil as Sophia, and Francine was itching to get down from the car to confront Sophia.

Lucas, however, intervened sternly, "That's enough! Quiet down!"
