Annie snapped back to her senses. She glanced at Aaron and said angrily, "Yes! That's right! I love getting the cold shoulder! Are you glad I said that? Didn't I get the cold shoulder from you last time too? Do you have to be sarcastic about it? Does seeing me like that make you happy?"
Aaron froze for a moment after her tirade and laughed again. "No, no! I'm giving you all the warmth from my shoulder! I'm on your side now! Don't be angry!"
Annie's face felt flush. 'What does he mean when he says he's giving me all the warmth from his shoulder? What the hell is this man talking about?'
Xante put down her cutlery and got up. "I'm full. You two go ahead." She went back to her room, leaving Annie alone with Aaron, who was smiling cheekily.
"I'm, uh… I'm going to check on Corinne!"
As soon as Annie tried to get up and leave, Aaron pulled her back and said, "Don't bother her right now. She just wants to be alone today."
Annie had no choice but to sit back down. She had lost her appetite by then.
"Relax!" Aaron said with a smile. "I won't gobble you up! You should eat more since you didn't manage to eat much earlier. I'll wash the dishes once you're done."
"You'll wash the dishes?" Annie did not expect him to offer to do that.
Aaron nodded. "Yes? I can't expect you to wash the dishes when you've cooked for us."
"Do you even know how to wash the dishes?" Annie raised her eyebrow curiously.
Aaron seized the moment to approach her and flirtily replied, "I don't, unfortunately. Could you teach me?"

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...
