"Yeah," said Corinne simply.
Annie nudged Jeremy with her elbow. "Uncle Jeremy, did you hear that? She was alone for the past six months. Alone!"
She had hoped Jeremy would not misunderstand Corinne so they could sit and have a civil conversation after so long of not seeing each other.
Jeremy chuckled mockingly. "That's what she said."
Annie did not understand what Jeremy meant. 'Why did he say that? Are they really breaking up soon?'
Corinne was visibly irked by Jeremy's comment. 'Does he think I'm lying?'
Annie was only trying to lighten the mood, but her attempt at making conversation just seemed to make the whole situation even worse. Thus, she decided to be silent.
…
Meanwhile, back in Xante's office.
Xante had asked someone to bring in some snacks for Sunny to keep him occupied while she tried to finish her work. However, she could not sit still after her secretary told her Corinne had gotten into Jeremy's car.
"What?! Where is Jeremy taking her?" she asked in a panicked tone.
The secretary shook her head. "I don't know. I only heard them talking about ending things properly."
Xante was furious. "How can you let her get into the car without knowing where he's taking her? And why didn't you follow her?"

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...
