The bodyguards watched helplessly as Aaron's minivan drove away, and they started to panic.
"What should we do now? How are we going to tell Mister Jeremy that we've lost Miss Corinne?"
"Sh*t! He's definitely going to punish us for that!"
"We're done for…"
"That's enough!" shouted the lead bodyguard through gritted teeth. "Instead of sh*tting your pants over here, you all should be tailing Mister Aaron. He definitely has something to do with Miss Corinne's escape. It can't be a coincidence for them to be here. We might be able to find Miss Corinne if we follow them!"
"Yes, Sir!"
…
Meanwhile, on the other side of the park, where there were no surveillance cameras along the street devoid of people, was a parked white Bugatti.
Corinne half-jogged over to the car, got into it, and took off her wig. She had changed into the clothes left by Xante in one of the public restrooms to escape notice from the bodyguards.
"You look good in your disguise," said Jason with a smirk.
Corinne was tired from the journey, so she was in no mood to joke around with him. "Cut the chit-chat and drive now."
Jason smiled, started the car engine, and drove her away from the park. Not long after that, he turned the car into a residential area.
Jason smiled. "Yeah, I live here. Why? You don't like it? I know it's not as nice as Jeremy's mansion, but it's still home."
Corinne shook her head and leaned back lazily on her seat. "No. It's not that. I've lived in places far worse than this when I was little. It's just… This doesn't look like a place that a rich guy like you will live in. I mean, guys with daddy's money always live in a mansion or penthouse, don't they?"
Jason laughed. "Well, I used to live here when I was little. It's been a long time since I came here. I don't think it's wise for you to live in a flashy place when you've just escaped from the Holdens, so that's why I brought you here."
"I see," she said, even though she still found it weird that Jason would live in such a humble place when he was little. 'Does that mean he didn't grow up rich?' she wondered. As curious as she was, she thought it would be rude for her to pry into his personal life.
They stopped in front of a shabby-looking flat since there was no underground parking. Together, they walked up to the second floor, and Jason took out a key to open the door.
"Welcome to my humble abode," said Jason.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
