'What's my plan from here on out?' Corinne was puzzled why Jeremy asked her that. She frowned and tried to gloss over her answer. "My plan is to take one step at a time. What's most important to me right now is to live in the present."
"My, you sure are one free-spirited woman," said Jeremy with a scoff. "What I'm trying to ask is, the baby you're carrying is not yours alone. How are we going to split the custody?"
'I knew it! He's trying to steal the baby from me!' Corinne's eyes became resolute as she asked, "Mister Jeremy, just who are you to ask me for the baby's custody?"
Jeremy's eyes darkened. He narrowed his eyes and retorted, "Well, who do you think I am?"
Corinne gulped down some water before answering, "To be honest, you're no one to me. And we both know the baby was an accident, but since they'll be born soon, I'll take care of them as best as I can.
"As for the two of us? We were brought together by chance, but our relationship is finished now. We never got legally married, so this baby has nothing to do with you. There's no way you can win even if you take me to court."
Jeremy gazed at her stern expression. Suddenly, he smiled. "Miss Corinne, are you questioning the capabilities of my team of lawyers or my power?"
Corinne got goosebumps from the way he smiled. "I'm not questioning anything. I'm just making my own position clear. The baby belongs to me and me alone. No one can take them away from me!"
Jeremy grabbed her chin. "You should know I might not go through the official procedures to get the baby."
"Why you!" Corinne frowned and slapped his hand away. "You can ask your wife to give you a baby if you want one so much! Why do you insist on taking away mine?"
'My wife?' Jeremy was a little shocked. "Do you mean…"

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...
