Lucas said, "I'm here to look for Corinne. Is she in?"
This startled Annie a little. "Corinne? Do you know her? Why are you looking for her?"
Before Lucas could answer, Corinne appeared from behind Annie. She looked at him indifferently and said, "You were looking for me?"
Annie instinctively backed away when Corinne came to the door.
Corinne had been missing for half a year, and Lucas's pupils contracted as soon as he laid eyes on her. His initial tenseness immediately dissipated due to relief, and his eyes reddened. "Where have you been for the past six months?"
Corinne frowned. "Everyone's been asking me that question today. I don't need to report my whereabouts to anyone, and it doesn't matter where I go as long as I come back in one piece."
The high and mighty Lucas was peeved by Corinne's disrespectful tone, but he did not get angry at her. He nodded in relief and said, "Well, it's good that you're back. I'm glad to see that you're safe."
Corinne had nothing else to say to him, so she turned and went back in.
Lucas followed her in, and she spotted the people sitting at the dining table. He greeted Xante and Aaron with a nod, and that was when he noticed that the seat next to Xante was empty.
Since there was a used set of plates and cutlery at the empty seat, Lucas narrowed his eyes and instantly knew who had been sitting there. It was none other than his insolent younger half-brother.
When Sunny heard that Lucas had arrived, he was so frightened that he hid under the table. However, Lucas did not show up to bring Sunny home, nor did he have any time to talk to him.

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...
