Chapter 1416
The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Corinne still wanted to say something when Lucas shushed her with a finger on her lips.
âListen to me.All you need to do now is rest.Otherwise, how will you have the energy to look after your
babies later?" he asked.
Corinne had no comeback for that.
Not giving her a chance to come up with anything, Lucas ordered, âXante, you stay here with her and
make sure she takes a rest.Aaron, Miss Annie, please follow me out.Itâs best not to have too much
crowding in her room."
Everyone agreed with his arrangement, so they all left except for Xante.
The hospital room finally became quiet.
Xante bent down and straightened out Corinneâs blanket.
âBoss, you should take a nap while you can.Youâll get to see the babies after you wake up."
Corinneâs eyelids started to drop.She felt like she had not slept for the longest time, and she was dog-
tired.
âWake me up if Jeremy comes."
A complicated look flashed across Xanteâs eyes.
She squeezed out a smile and said, âSure thing, boss."
Reassured, Corinne closed her eyes and gave in to sleep.
⦠Outside the hospital room, Lucas said to Aaron and Annie seriously, âI have to stay in the hospital
with Corinn, but Iâve asked my man to find Jeremyâs whereabouts.
Aaron, you should do the same.
That way, we can find him faster.
We must find out where that b*stard has taken the baby before Corinne realizes he and the baby are
gone!"
Aaron thought the same too, so he nodded solemnly and said, âAlright.Iâll look for him too with my
men."
Annie pouted.
âIâll do what I can too.Iâll go to the Holdens now to see if Uncle Jeremy has been back."
âOkay! Call me immediately if thereâs any news about him," said Lucas.
âOkay."
âOkay."
After that, the three of them parted ways.
Lucas stayed in the hospital but did not go back to Corinneâs room; he did not want to disturb her rest.
Instead, he went to the nursery to visit the twins.
His heart instantly melted when he saw the two babies lying in their incubator.
However, his loving feeling did not last long as he gritted his teeth, thinking, âThe first baby should be in
the incubator with his siblings as well! Jeremy, that b*stard! What the hell is he thinking?â Nobody
expected that Jeremy would take the first baby out of the hospital without a word.
Once they were out of the hospital, Aaron brought his men to look for Jeremy at all major traffic points,
while Annie took a cab to the Holdensâ mansion.
When she arrived, the servant led her into the yard where Francine was accompanying Pamela to
water the flowers.
Not wanting to worry Pamela, Annie greeted her casually before pulling Francine aside.
âWhat are you doing here? Is there something I can help you with?" asked Francine curiously.
âShh. Francine, has Uncle Jeremy been back here?" whispered Annie.
Francine frowned.
âJeremy? No, he hasnât. Why?"
Annieâs face fell with disappointment.
âAre you sure about that?â
