The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 766

Jeremy looked at Lucas with surprise. He never thought that Lucas would do something like that for him or Corinne.

"Are you sure?" Jeremy asked.

Lucas walked over to the bed to check on Joey. "Yes, I'm sure. After all, this kid is my family's responsibility. In fact, we should be apologizing for causing you so much trouble."

Jeremy narrowed his eyes in disbelief. 'Wasn't he the one who asked me to spend more time with Anya? Why the sudden change of heart?'

"Lucas, what are you doing here? Umm…shouldn't you be down there drinking with your friends?" Anya asked with a frown.

Lucas threw a glance at Anya and said meaningfully, "Jeremy should be the one doing that since he's the star of the night."

Anya was speechless. She knew what Lucas was trying to tell her, but d*mn if she was going to let Jeremy go down to be with that b*tch!

"Lucas, Joey really needs Jeremy right now. His temperature has finally just come down, and I'm afraid that it'll go up again if Jeremy's not here," said Anya pitifully.

Instead of speaking to Anya, Lucas asked Joey, "Hey there, little guy. Is it okay if I stay with you instead?"

Joey was actually awake. He blinked a few times out of discomfort before saying, "Un… Uncle…"

Lucas leaned in closer to him. "Yes, little guy? Do you want me to stay?"

Joey nodded. "Uncle…stay…"

Hearing this, Jeremy immediately stood up and patted Lucas' shoulder. "Thanks, man."
