The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 1532
âSo Jason has an ulterior motive for finding meâ¦â thought Corinne.
She was not against Jasonâs idea. In fact, she felt relieved.
She was initially afraid that Jason was going to ask her to give him a chance, so she was rather
relieved to find out he wanted to talk business with her instead.
Corinne had not forgotten how Jason helped her when she needed it the most. Since she could not
return his feelings, she promised she would help him out whenever he needed it in the future.
Thus, she did not want to turn down his business proposal since he took the initiative to ask. However,
this was not something she could decide alone. She would still need approval from the companyâs
shareholders before giving him an answer.
âIâll give your proposal some thought, and Iâll also go check out your piece of land when Iâm free. You
have my word that Iâll try to get the shareholders on board if the project is feasible,â said Corinne.
Jason smiled and nodded. âThanks in advance, Corinne. You have no idea how much of a headache
that piece of land is, so itâll be great if my company can work with yours.â
âDonât thank me first. I only said Iâll try to get the shareholders on board, but itâs still up to them whether
weâll end up working together,â said Corinne.
Jason smiled again at her from the rearview mirror. âI understand. The outcome isnât really that
important; itâs enough that youâre willing to help me out.â
Their eyes met for a second, causing Corinne to frown and look out of the window.
âKeep your eyes on the road.â
âWill do.â
After that, Jason kept his eyes on the road, but he never stopped talking to Corinne about random
things.
As much as Corinne found that annoying, she thought it would be ungrateful of her to ignore him since
he did help her out in the past. Thus, she would give him monosyllabic replies from time to time.
30 minutes later, they arrived at the Holdensâ mansion. By that point, Bryan had long fallen asleep in
Corinneâs arms.
Jason opened the door for them like a gentleman and reached out his hands to help carry the little boy
out. However, Corinne shook her head and slowly carried him out of the car herself.
She did not have the heart to wake him up, thinking he must have been through a lot today. It must not
have been easy for him to fall asleep, so she did not want to risk waking him up by having another
person carry him.
Jason stood helplessly by the side as he watched her carry Benjamin out of the car.
Corinne adjusted Benjaminâs weight around to make herself feel more comfortable before politely
thanking and saying goodbye to Jason.
However, to her surprise, Jason said, âThatâs all I get for sending you home? Arenât you going to ask
me in for a cup of coffee?â
Corinne frowned in annoyance. âDo you really think thatâs appropriate?â
Jason shrugged. âI was kidding. Just go in. Iâm leaving now. Remember to update me about the piece
of land in Serenity Bay!â
