The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1706

Corinne went closer to have a look. There were only crumbs left in Christine's bag of potato chips.

As for Bryan, he was rolling and crawling all over the floor with his toy soldiers as though possessed while shoving the potato chips into his mouth from time to time.

Corinne could never let Joey eat whatever was left in that bag, not after she saw how unhygienic Bryan was. Thus, instead of asking Bryan to share his potato chips, Corinne stroked Joey's head and said, "Sweetheart, Mommy will go buy you some more potato chips afterward, okay?"

Joey simply nodded docilely.

Suddenly, Corinne heard her phone buzzing, so walked over to check on it. It was an encrypted message which could only be unlocked with certain skills.

Decrypting the message was a piece of cake for Corinne. She sat at the side of her bed and started typing in codes. A few minutes later, the message was finally decrypted. It was a message from Jeremy.

[Are you home yet?]

Corinne scoffed, but she could not help but smile. She also replied with an encrypted message, [Yes. I'm playing with the kids right now.]

A short while later, Jeremy replied, [You must be tired after a long day. I'm going to make it up to you when I'm home.]

Corinne stared at the message. Somehow, she could tell that he did not mean it literally.

She thought for a while before replying, [Not at all! But you'll be doing me a huge favor by taking care of the kids.]

[No, that's different. The kids are the kids, and you are you. So I'm going to make it up to you in another way, my dear wife,] replied Jeremy almost immediately.
