The Day I Kissed An Older Man
Chapter 389
A lukewarm âhelloâ and âwelcomeâ was a rare thing to come out from the noble Jeremyâs mouth.
Sherlynâs heart thumped excitedly in her chest. She was
delighted and thought that Jeremy must have had a good impression of her. Why else would he act so
politely toward her?
The fact that the cold, aloof Jeremy would welcome her was proof that she was the one he wanted to
marry in the first
place. Besides, Anya did tell her yesterday that Jeremy had fallen in love with her after seeing her in a
movie she starred in and that was why he arranged for his men to bring the
engagement gifts to her house.
Then, Corinne came in between them. The people on Jeremyâs side must have thought Corinne was
Sherlyn because as
sisters, they somewhat looked alike. Even though Sherlyn did not think so, it must be so to others.
âAlso, that b*tch Corinne rarely goes out with makeup on her face. Jeremy mustâve thought thatâs how I
look without makeup, and thatâs how he mixed me up with her. Well, I donât blame him. A busy man like
him canât possibly remember a face he only saw once on the screen, and thatâs how Corinne had the
chance to replace me. I canât believe she pretended to be me for the past two months. Argh! How dare
she steal my man from me?!â thought Sherlyn with gritted teeth.
However, she forced herself to calm down by telling herself it was not the time to be cursing Corinne.
The most important

thing for her to do was to make a good impression on Jeremy.
She flicked her carefully groomed hair in a way she thought was charming and attractive. âJeremy, we
met each other in Lunar Century Manor before,â she chirped. âDo you remember?â
Jeremy glanced at her face and replied, âYes, I think so.â
Sherlyn beamed at him. âI knew it! It only makes sense heâd remember me. I was the one he fell in love
with, so heâll surely fall in love with me again now that weâve reunited. I mustâve made a lasting
impression on him then!â she thought.
In the living room, Lilliana quickly poked the sleeping Marvin and whispered to him that Jeremy had
returned. Marvin was in the middle of a good dream, but he immediately woke up and sat up straight on
the sofa when he heard Jeremy was home.
He looked toward where Lilliana was pointing and saw Sherlyn talking to a tall and elegant man.
Everything about him looked so perfect, it was as though he was carved from marble. Even a middleâ
aged man like Marvin could not help but marvel at the fact that a handsome man such as Jeremy
existed in this world.
âThe songs singing praises of him are true! The heir of the Holden family isnât only talented but
handsome as well!â thought Marvin. âAnd this talented, handsome man is going to be my future sonâinâ
law!â
Marvin tidied himself up and puffed his chest. Then, he linked arms with Lilliana and proudly walked to
where Jeremy was.
âJeremy, our sonâinâlaw, youâre back! Weâve been waiting here the whole day for you,â said Marvin.
Jeremy raised an eyebrow and looked at Marvin with a pair of emotionless eyes. He nodded politely at
him and respectfully said, âNice to meet you, Uncle. Iâm looking forward to listening to what you have to
teach me about life.â
Marvin immediately felt like he was going to burst with joy. He became so cocky that his nose was
about to touch the ceiling. âGood god, I canât believe the heir of the Holden family wants me to teach
him about life! Those relatives of mine who laughed at me during the wedding wonât dare to laugh at
me anymore now Iâm the fatherâinâlaw to Jeremy, the heir to the prestigious Holden family! Even he
had to treat me with respect and listen to what I had to teach him about life!â
Marvin was sure that his life was about to change for the better as he had Jeremyâs support. He could
not wait to move around in the upperâclass society!
