Chapter 21
The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 21
âSI*t!â Zoey cursed angrily with an envious look on her face.
Corinne was not prepared to argue with Zoey at someone elseâs wedding, so she turned and went to
the bathroom. By the time she came out, she inadvertently saw a man and a woman chatting at the
end of the corridor, and before long, they both sneaked into the storage room together.
If her eyes did not deceive her, then the man was none other than Annieâs groom, Juan. On the other
hand, the woman was Zoey, who was wearing a bridesmaid dress the same color as her own.
What could a groom possibly be doing with a bridesmaid on a wedding day?
Inside the storage room.
âYouâre heartless, Juan! How could you get married behind my back!â
âWhy are you here, Zoey?â
âIâm one of the bridesmaids! I didnât think the groom would be you! No wonder you havenât been
answering my calls recently!â
âZoey, Iâve got thirty thousand inside this card. Letâs just treat it as a fee for our breakup! Once youâre
done with your bridesmaid duties, make sure to leave without causing any trouble!â
Zoey took the card. âThirty thousand? Who are you kidding? If you want to break up, you need to give
at least
a hundred and fifty thousand!â
Juan grew annoyed. âA hundred and fifty thousand? Donât push your luck, Zoey! I can only give you
thirty thousand. Take it or leave it, and donât blame me for asking the security guards to kick you out!â
When Corinne listened to the quarrel going on inside the storage room, Corinne finally remembered
why Juan was so familiar.
Juan had gone to Alpha Enterprises to pick Zoey up before, and since Zoey had always been one to
show off, she flaunted Juan around the company because she wanted to show off what a handsome
boyfriend she had.
Annie, on the other hand, said that she and Juan have been together for three years, and their love for
each. other had been super strong.
Underneath that gentle-looking persona was a cheater, and poor Annie had been so in love with him!
Corinne lowered her gaze and remained expressionless.
Annie was Jeremyâs niece, and there was no reason for her to meddle in the private lives of Jeremyâs
relatives. After all, it had nothing to do with her.
â
The wedding soon began with a classic tune-the solemn and romantic âWedding Marchâ.
Annie walked onto the red carpet and made her way toward the man whom she firmly believed would
be her life companionâ¦
Below the stage, Zeke had a sudden thought as he watched the wedding ceremony and raised his arm
to
nudge Jeremyâs elbow. With a smile, he asked, âWhereâs that little girl you married just a few days ago?
Why didnât you bring her with you?â
Jeremy remained silent. His eyes were focused on the stage, where the blue-clad Corinne was
standing.
Tommy replied on behalf of Jeremy. âSheâs here, Mister Zeke.â
âHere?â Zeke looked left and right. âWhere? Why donât I see her anywhere?â
Tommy pointed to the stage. âSheâs up there.â
Zeke glanced at the stage, where the only women except for the bride Annie were the four
bridesmaids. Which oneâs her?â
He had only either seen Corinne in heavy makeup or covered in a veil, and had never seen her true
appearance yet.
The big screen up on the stage was showing snapshots of the bride and groomâs happy moments
together. Meanwhile, the officiant was in the midst of asking the bride to recite her marriage vowsâ¦
All of a sudden, the video on the big screen changed abruptly and into a surveillance video, depicting
Juan dragging a woman in a bridesmaid dress into the storage room in the corridor.
The entire venue erupted in an uproar.
