The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1858

Not knowing what else there was to say, Emily gazed at Melinda with gratitude, admiring her positivity and understanding.

…

Outside the ward, Corinne and Jeremy overheard Emily and Melinda's conversation. They looked at each other silently, deeply impressed by Melinda's moral standing.

'Mom is lucky to have a friend like Missus Addison. She's such an understanding woman,' thought Corinne.

Suddenly, Corinne's phone buzzed in her pocket. She took out her phone and saw it was a call from Pamela.

She showed the phone to Jeremy, who took a quick glance and said, "Go ahead, answer it."

'Grandma must be wondering why we're not home yet at this hour,' thought Corinne as she picked up the phone.

Before she could tell Pamela that they would not be home that night, Pamela said anxiously, "Corinne, where are you and Jeremy? Come back, now! Something terrible has happened!"

Corinne exchanged glances with Jeremy before asking, "What's happened, Grandma?"

"Joey… Joey was abducted! A stranger took him away! I've sent our men to go after them, but we haven't received any updates. Greg and I… We don't know what to do…so come back quick! Hurry!" replied Pamela. She sounded like she was hyperventilating.

'Joey was abducted? How could this have happened?'

Corinne stood up and dashed to the elevator. Her maternal instinct was triggered the moment she heard about the abduction.
