Xante's eyes darkened, but she then smirked. "So what if she did?"
Sophia, with her chin resting in her hand, fluttered her eyelashes at Xante. "What did she complain about? Let's see if what she said is true. My guess is that I'll probably agree with her about most things."
Xante scoffed. "Miss Sophia, I really don't think we're close enough to have this kind of girl talk."
Sophia shrugged. She looked disappointed, but she did not ask any more questions.
Surprisingly, Jeremy did. "What did she say about me?"
Xante was a little taken aback. She turned toward Jeremy, her gold-rimmed glasses glinting, and smiled. "Why should you care what she said about you?"
"Just what the hell did she say about me?" repeated Jeremy impatiently.
Xante chuckled coldly. "She didn't say anything. I was just joking with Miss Sophia, so just forget about it."
Jeremy's face darkened with anger.
Xante continued eating her steak to avoid looking at Jeremy's gaze.
Sunny could feel the tension in the air and Jeremy's displeasure at Xante. Even so, he wanted to protect his girlfriend, so he tried to change the topic.
"Ahem! Jeremy, is there still no news about Corinne?"
"No," uttered Jeremy coldly. He was so frustrated that he felt like a huge rock was pressing on his chest.
Sophia smiled breezily. "If that is her reason, then it's a pity she left."
Corinne raised an eyebrow. The more she spent time with Sophia, the more she found her difficult to understand. "You sound like you really want her to come back. Do you not at all mind that she's your husband's mistress?"
Sophia laughed heartily. "Why should I mind? It's not like doing so would change anything. All men are the same. They'll get bored of their own wives and start looking for a side chick. Besides, Jeremy's not only handsome but rich and powerful as well. Do you know just how many women are willing to throw themselves at him? If I spend every minute of my day caring about them, I'd be exhausted to death already. That's not how I want to live my life! It's no fun revolving your life around a guy, you know."
"Well, you're open-minded if not anything else."
Sophia smiled. "I have to be. I don't care what woman he shacks up with outside as long as he knows to come home eventually. By the way, can you pass a message to Miss Corinne if you happen to see her? Tell her that I want to get to know her, and I don't mind sharing Jeremy with her. I'm sure she and I will be great friends!"
Xante frowned. She had to admit that she never met a woman like Sophia before.

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...
