The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1708

The two maids assigned to look after Bryan and Christine stood there helplessly.

"Ma'am, Mister Bryan and Miss Christine were fighting over a toy. We couldn't stop them."

"They threw a tantrum when we tried to stop them."

Corinne pinched the bridge of her nose again. She had been so busy recently that she sort of neglected the two kids to the point where they had become even more bad-tempered.

"Enough is enough! Both of you stop!" roared Corinne.

The kids stood quietly as they felt their mother's burning rage.

Corinne pulled them closer, scolded them sternly, and forbade them to have any snacks for one month. Christine and Bryan's faces immediately fell when they heard that.

Nonetheless, Corinne stood firm on her decision. She took out the handwriting homework the kindergarten had given them and told them to do it. She would be back later to check on their progress.

Christine and Bryan were displeased with the punishment they received but did not dare to disobey her, so they did as they were told.

After she finished lecturing the two kids, Corinne came out of the room and looked for the maid who was holding Joey's potato chips for her.

The maid was looking for her, too. "Ma'am, Old Missus Holden is asking for you. She'd like to have a word with you."

'A word with me? Did Grandma find out something?' thought Corinne with concern.

After deliberating for a while, she asked the maid, "How about Joey? Have you found him?"

"Yes, Mister Joey is taking a nap in his own room. There's no need to worry about him. Please go and see Old Missus Holden now," replied the maid.
