Chapter 1564
The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Bryan held Corinneâs hand tightly. No! Mommy, of course I want you!â
Corinne had not seen Bryan for many days. Thus, no matter how angry she was with him for running
off, she still cared about him deeply.
She gently held her sonâs face and asked softly, âHave you had lunch?â
Bryan nodded. âYeah!â
Corinne was silent for two seconds before asking again, âWhat aboutâ¦him? n Bryan tilted his head.
âMommy, are you asking if Daddy has had his lunch yet?â
âYeah,â said Corinne gruffly.
âHe did. Both of US had lunch with Sophia before she went out.â
âI see.â Corinne then looked around the suite.
âCome with me, Mommy! Letâs go see how Daddy is doing with his exercise!â As he spoke, Bryan took
Corinneâs hand and pulled her toward the bedroom.
Corinne helplessly followed him to the bedroom, which she had just walked out moments ago.
After Bryan opened the door, Corinne saw Jeremy-who was sweating profusely from exertion-taking
one difficult step after another on the balcony.
His legs had suffered severe muscle atrophy, and the possibility of standing up and walking on his own
again was very low. However, he did not give up. 1 Bryan felt a little sorry for him. âDo you want some
water, Daddy? I can go and get it for you!â he said loudly.
Jeremy turned his head to look at them. He pursed his lips and said, âNo, Iâm not thirsty.â
However, Corinne gestured with her chin and said to Bryan, âGo and get a bottle of water for him
anyway.â
âOkay!â Bryan quickly went to do as he was told.
She watched him leave before turning her attention back to Jeremy.
Walking over slowly, she said, âRehabilitation exercises need to be done step by step. You canât rush
it.â
Jeremy glanced at her and continued practicing without saying anything.
Corinne fell silent too. She leaned against the balcony railing with her arms folded and looked at
Jeremy until Bryan came running over with a bottle of water in his hands.
âHere you go, Daddy!â Bryan held up the bottled water with both hands for Jeremy to take.
Jeremy could not bear to reject him when he saw how cute the boy was.
However, he needed to support his body with both hands. In other words, he would fall if he let go of
one hand.
Just as he was thinking about how to solve his dilemma, Corinne suddenly came over and took the
bottled water from Bryanâs hand, helped Jeremy unscrew the cap, and held the bottled water under his
lips.
Jeremy looked at her in surprise.
âWell, what are you waiting for? How long do you expect me to hold it there for you?â asked Corinne
impatiently.
Jeremy frowned to hide his embarrassment. He opened his mouth and took two sips of water.
Corinne pulled back the bottled water and took a sip before slowly screwing on the bottle cap. She did
all that in a way that seemed like it was the most natural thing in the world.
Seeing this, Jeremy narrowed his eyes. In the end, he did not say anything as it was more important
than to get all the practice he could before Sophia came back.
Corinne picked up Bryan, and the two of them sat down on a wicker chair so that they would not be in
the way. She would quietly glance up from her phone from time to time to check on Jeremyâs progress.
Half an hour later, Jeremy was so tired that he was sweating profusely, but his hard work paid off. He
was standing more stable than before!
Feeling he had done enough for the day, he wanted to take a rest in his wheelchair.
