Chapter 1067
The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chester suddenly shouted behind Corinne.
Corinne stopped and turned around.
Francine was a little surprised. She looked at Chester, then at Corinne suspiciously.
âI mean, if thatâs okay with you,â said Chester cautiously when Corinne made no replies.
Corinne deliberated for a few seconds before nodding and saying, âOkay. We can talk outside the yard.
Itâs getting stuffy in here, so I could use some fresh air.â
âSure thing,â said Chester with a nod.
After that, they all went down the stairs together.
Once at the entrance, Chester turned and said, âFrancine, thanks for seeing me off, but Iâd like to have
a private word with Corinne. Please donât follow me out.â
As much as Francine was not happy with the request, she did not dare object Chester.
âOh⦠Okay,â she said with a nod. She then watched helplessly as Chester and Corinne walked out of
the door before quickly running over to the floor-to-ceiling window to spy on them.
Francine was quite angry when she found out Chester used to have a crush on Corinne, but she
calmed down a little after telling herself Corinne would never fight over Chester with her since she was
with Jeremy.
âIt looks like Chester hasnât given up on Corinne yet. Ooh, this is not good!â thought Francine. If this
was any other guy, she would have snitched on Corinne to Jeremy already, but since this was Chester
she was dealing with, she decided to let it slide. Only god knew what Jeremy would do to him once he
found out what happened.
The mansionâs huge yard was filled with all sorts of trees and flowers, and at that moment, they were
made even more beautiful by the moonlight washing over them.
Corinne looked up in a trance at the moon hanging high above the sky.
âHey, itâs a full moon!â said Chester after following suit.
This shook Corinne out of her trance. She turned toward him and said, âI almost forgot youâre here too.
What is it you wanted to talk to me about?â
Chester frowned. After a while, he said, âI want to ask you something.â
Corinne gave him a curt nod. âOkay, what is it?â

âThat guy⦠I mean, Francineâs brother⦠Is he good to you?â he asked in a bitter tone.
Corinne was a little surprised by the question. âWhy do you ask?â
âI heard from Francine that her brother has been away on a business trip for the past several days. But
what kind of husband goes on a business trip when his wife is lying sick in the hospital? I just think that
if a husband really loves his wife, he wouldâve stayed by her side when she needed him the most.â
After a brief moment of silence, Corinne smiled and said, âThanks for your concern, but heâs actually
quite good to me.â
âCorinne, I know your husband is a very wealthy man, but you should just leave if you donât feel loved
or happy here. No amount of material wealth is worth giving up on your happiness. Youâll regret it in the
future if you donât leave,â said Chester worriedly.
Corinne raised her eyebrow. âSo the only reason you think Iâm staying is because of how wealthy my
husband is?â
Chester realized he misspoke, and he quickly tried to rectify himself. âNo⦠What I mean is, I donât think
you and him are compatible. Heâs ten years older than you. You guys wonât be able to talk about the
same thing or have the same values! Not to mention, he doesnât seem like he cares about you at all.
Why stay?â
Corinne smiled faintly. âIâm perfectly well aware of what Iâm doing. This is my marriage, so I alone have
the right to make a call on whether I should stay or leave. But thank you for your concern.â
