Chapter 1059
The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Annie was a little taken aback. âWhat do you mean, Corinne? Are you saying you regret getting
pregnant with Uncle Jeremy?â
Corinneâs mouth twitched. âThe baby might be an accident, but I donât regret it,â she said calmly. âIâm
just reminding you not to be so dazzled by romantic love that you start imagining a happily ever after
with the guy when he hasnât asked you out on a date yet.â
The message seemed to have gotten through to Annie because she nodded poutingly and said, âOkay,
Corinne, Iâll keep that in mind. I shouldâve listened to you in the beginning. Now that I think about it, itâs
laughable how I thought I could change a player into husband material through the power of my love.â
Corinne looked at Annie sympathetically. âItâs not you. Itâs him. Heâs just not the type to settle down and
get married. Iâm just glad you saw his true colors before it was too late. I hope youâll find a man whoâll
love and treasure you in the future.â
Annie looked down at the floor as sweet memories of her and Aaron flashed through her mind. Even
though she was angry and sad about how Aaron treated her, she still found it very hard to let him go.
âCorinne, in all the years you know Mister Aaron, has he never been in a serious relationship before?â
asked Annie curiously. She was wondering whether Aaron turned out to be how he was because of a
relationship that ended badly.
âNope. Not even once,â Corinne answered without hesitation.
Annie frowned in confusion. âThen how did he turn out to be like this? I find it hard to believe someone
is a player from the moment he was born. He mustâve yearned for true love when he was younger,
right?â

Corinne could not help but frown when she thought back to Aaronâs behavior in the past. She did try to
rein him in a little, but it was all in vain. He would either drink himself stupid or play games 24/7
whenever she stopped him from chasing after girls.
In the end, they came to a compromise. He was allowed to chase after girls but only girls who were
players themselves. In other words, girls looking for serious relationships were out of bounds for him.
There had been so many girls over the years that even Aaron himself lost count of how many
âgirlfriendsâ he had.
âThat punk doesnât believe in love at all. Plus, heâs not dating girls because he likes them. Itâs only
because heâs bored, and chasing after girls makes him feel alive. Annie, you should know, romantic
love is not essential to some people. Theyâll never be moved by your love for them, no matter what you
do or say. Forget about Aaron, and Iâll ask your Uncle Jeremy to introduce someone even better-
looking than him.â
However, it was hard for some like Annie, who put romantic love above all else, to comprehend that
there were people who did not believe in love at all.
After thinking it over, she asked curiously, âThen, do you believe in love?â
âNo,â said Corinne after one second. She did not believe in love at all.
When she was a child and thought Marvin was her father, she hated him for abandoning her mother
and ignoring her so he could be together with Lilliana.
