Chapter 1197
The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Corinne glanced at Sophia. âIâm being as courteous as I can. Itâs just very inconvenient for me to take
off my hat and mask.â
Sophia frowned in confusion. âWhy not?â
âBecause Iâm ugly. I wouldnât want to scare you,â said Corinne bluntly.
Sophia was taken aback. âItâs not that bad, is it? We wonât be scared! Why would we care about your
appearance when your talent encompasses who you are? Letâs get to know each other a bit better!â
Corinne did not want to argue with Sophia anymore. She was just about to bid them goodbye when
Jeremy said, âTake them off.â
Corinne was stunned. âMister Jeremy, our cooperation has officially ended, and I donât think I am
obliged to agree to your whimsical demands. I have other things to take care of, so if youâll excuse me!â
She immediately turned to leave when Jeremy grabbed her wrist and ordered, âTake. Them. Off.â
Corinne took a deep breath, knowing she could not escape. She looked at Jeremy with displeasure and
said, âIâm surprised youâd suspect me of stealing and insist on seeing my face after the end of our
cooperation.â
Jeremy stared at her with eagle-like eyes. âDo you feel guilty? Why are you so scared to show me your
true face? Who are you?â
He remembered the first time he met Moon at the Newmoon Group. Corinne was also there, but she
never seemed to have appeared together with Moon. As he connected the dots to Corinneâs
relationship with Xante and Aaron, a sudden thought occurred to him, and he came to a shocking
theory.
Corinne and Moon might be the same person.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated

That might be why Newmoon Group was so hesitant to let Moon attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony at
the beginning. They were probably afraid her true identity would be discovered!
Moreover, Moonâs stomach did not look like she simply gained weight.
Jeremy seemed to have found some clarity amid the confusion. However, he did not know what sort of
feeling he had at that moment. Was it joy or anger?
In any case, he stared closely at Corinne without letting her slip by him.
Corinne was unable to pull back her wrist. His grip was so tight that her wrist was hurting. It was clear
to her that he was acting that way because he was suspicious of her!
âOkay! If you are so adamant about seeing my face, Iâll take off my hat and mask to show you. Youâll
have to let go of my hand first, though!â
Jeremy thought it over for a few seconds and looked up so he could signal his staff to block the exits.
That way, she could not run even if he let go of her.
Corinne massaged her numb wrist and said unhappily, âIâd like to put it on record that you have
infringed on my privacy to such an extent that youâre even forcing me to take off my hat and mask. I will
no longer cooperate with Holden Group from this point on!â
Jeremy did not seem to care about her quibble and raised his eyes coldly. âTake them off, then.â
Corinne had no choice but to raise her hand to take off her hat. Her long hair was then revealed. Then,
she placed her hand on the mask string beside her ear.
Her movements were unconsciously slow, and she was still a little reluctant to take them off.
Jeremy had an intensely intimidating look in his eyes.
