Gerald did not ask anything further.
"I must say, what's all this fuss about not being able to find Corinne? I mean, you can get any other woman you want, Jeremy. You should just forget about her," said Zeke.
Jeremy frowned and ignored him.
Gerald glared at Zeke. "No one will think you're dumb if you don't open your mouth!"
Zeke shrugged innocently and said, "What? Am I wrong? This isn't the first time Corinne has run away. Why should Jeremy still care about her when she dumped him twice? If I were you, Jeremy, I would've shacked up with another woman already."
Jeremy's expression darkened.
Gerald quickly kicked Zeke on the legs. "Why don't you stop annoying us and p*ss off downstairs?"
"Ouch!" Zeke screamed out in pain. However, that did nothing to stop him from talking. Though, to his credit, he did bring up the liveliness of the atmosphere.
Sophia, who sat on the armchair with a glass of wine in her hand, laughed at Zeke's antics.
"Oh, you're funny, Mister Zeke! I won't be surprised if girls are lining up to be your girlfriend!"
Zeke spread his hands out helplessly. "You would think that, but no girls would even give me the time of the day whenever I'm around Jeremy, Zeke, Lucas, or Jason. That's why I always go out on the hunt alone. The girls won't know what they're missing out on if they don't see these handsome men."
Sophia laughed again. "Don't say that! I think you're all handsome in your own way. Plus, they're not as approachable as you."
"Don't get this the wrong way. I don't want to date you not because I don't like you but because I already have someone in mind. I can't really fall for any other guy at the moment. You should be more confident about your own charm, Mister Zeke," explained Sophia.
"Ooh. Who's the guy? Do we know him? Tell us the name, and maybe we can help set you up with him!"
Sophia furtively glanced at Jeremy, who was sipping his wine. "I can't tell you that. It's a secret!" she said, her gaze shifting.
Zeke chuckled softly. "You don't need to tell me, 'cause my guess is. It's either Jeremy or Gerald, right?"
Sophia was silent for a few seconds before she waved her hand dismissively and said, "Let's stop the conversation here. My love life is not for you to gossip about."
Zeke crossed his arms and clicked his tongue. "So it's true! No girls would ever find me attractive whenever Jeremy and Gerald are here. Oh, poor me. I'm going to be forever lonely."

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...
