The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1822

Jeremy glared daggers at Terry, who broke out in a nervous sweat.

'Who…is he? Why does he look so intimidating?' wondered Terry.

Once Jeremy's eyes shifted away from the father and landed on Corinne, the grimness in his gaze softened. He arched an eyebrow and opened his hands slightly. "Did you miss me?"

Corinne looked at him, her clear eyes on the verge of welling up with tears, but her tone still lacked warmth. "Where have you been? Why didn't you reply to my messages?"

Jeremy walked up to her and wrapped his arm around her waist to pull her into a warm embrace. He then rested his chin on her shoulder and answered softly, "I threw away my phone to avoid being tracked. After escaping from the airport yesterday, I had to take care of some things. I'm sorry for being late again."

Corinne thumped his chest and said in a choking voice, "You jerk! I thought..."

She thought he had gone back to Molomia without so much as saying goodbye to her.

Jeremy, knowing what Corinne wanted to say, patted her back gently. "I'll never leave you again."

Corinne finally let her guard down. This embrace, which she had waited for three years, was something she thought she might never experience again.

Everything felt surreal to her at that moment. Was this a dream? Once she woke up, he would not be there anymore…

"Hey! Enough with the PDA! How are you going to pay me back for the damages you did to my cars?!"

As fearful as he was of Jeremy, Terry still could not contain his anger at the sight of his wrecked vehicles.

His angry outburst brought Jeremy and Corinne out of their emotional reunion. They were still holding each other but with a slight distance between them. Both of them shifted their attention to the irate man.

Jeremy's eyes narrowed slightly. Ignoring the yelling man, he lowered his gaze and asked Corinne softly, "Who's that guy?"
