The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1717

Joey walked over to Bryan and Christine to see how they were getting on with their handwriting practice. It was then he saw a bag of unopened potato chips next to them each.

Joey had asked specifically for this specific type of potato chip from Corinne a while ago, but she told him they had run out of it.

'Didn't Mommy say we don't have that kind of potato chips already? Where did Bryan and Christine get them from? Did Mommy secretly keep it for them, and that was why she told me we had run out?' he wondered.

He looked at the two bags of potato chips sadly. True to his nature, he did not explode with anger. He simply left the room quietly.

"Mister Joey, where are you going? Miss Corinne was asking about you just now," said the maid when she finally noticed.

"I… I'm going back to my room," answered Joey listlessly. After that, he went back to the nursery with his drooping shoulder and back, cutting a lonesome figure.

The maid thought Joey was acting a little weird. However, she did not think much about it as she was busy looking after Bryan and Christine.

Two hours later, Corinne finally came out of Pamela's room. The old lady did not ask her anything. She just kept telling her about the recent dreams she had, of which every one of them had to do with Jeremy. Pamela sorely missed Jeremy, and she thought she would find a kindred spirit in Corinne.

Corinne noticed Pamela's complexion was looking a little too pale for comfort, so she stayed behind to give her a head massage. After that, she talked to her until she fell asleep.

Corinne went back to the room where Bryan and Christine were. They had both fallen asleep. The maids told her both kids dozed off halfway through their handwriting practice, and seeing that they had done well, they carried the two kids to bed to let them continue sleeping.

Corinne sat by the window to watch the two kids sleep. Suddenly, she sighed tiredly, and thought, 'I hope they'll get along with each other more and fight less.'

She then turned to the maid and asked, "Where's Joey?"

"He came here just now to take a look and went back to his room after that," answered the maid.
