The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 55

Chapter 55

Suddenly, Jason bent down and got close to Corinne’s ear. He whispered, “But, if you like them, I can give them to you….as proposal gifts for your hand in marriage.”

Corinne grimaced and shot him an annoyed stare. She was going to ignore his joke, but as she tried to think of a way to get Jason to sell those paintings to her, an ominous feeling rose in her

chest.

She frowned, and her expression was looking terrible, too.

Jason noticed Corinne was feeling unwell and asked, “What’s wrong?”

There was sweat coming out of her forehead, and her lips had turned pale. “I’m just…not feeling quite well.”

Jason looked worried. “Did you catch a cold because of the low temperature in the art gallery?”

“M-Maybe.” She gritted her teeth uncomfortably. She even started to shiver.

Jason took off his jacket to put it on her. He said softly, “Let me bring you to the lounge so you can rest. There’s no air-conditioner there, so the temperature is slightly warmer.”

“Thank you.”

Corinne had a hard time standing firmly. In the end, she had to accept Jason’s support just so she could walk to the lounge.

Meanwhile, Sunny, sneakily hiding, recorded everything with his phone. He snorted. “Tsk! It’s broad daylight, and they’re heading toward the empty lounge by themselves. If that’s not something, I don’t know what is!”

With evidence at hand, he quickly shared the location of the art gallery with Francine.

Corinne and Jason arrived in the lounge, and her face had gotten paler by the minute. Not only was she shivering, but her teeth even clattered slightly too.

Jason brought a glass of hot water for her. “Are you feeling better? Should I send you to the hospital?”

It was so uncomfortable for her that she had to hug her stomach. Despite the pain, to rest for a while. Don’t worry about me. Go and be with your friends.”
