Aaron shook his head. "Nothing. I'll call the shots if you don't know what to eat. After that, we can think about what to bring back for the boss."
Annie was fine with that. She nodded listlessly and said, "Fine. Whatever."
Aaron glanced at her. "What's the matter? Are you so disappointed you can't have lunch with your boyfriend?"
Annie rolled her eyes. "Would you cancel the company meeting so he can accompany me to lunch if I say yes?"
"Nope," said Aaron with a grin.
"Then what's the point of asking?" replied Annie with a glare.
"I just want to give myself the chance to have some alone time with you."
Annie was speechless. She finally decided to stop being a foolish romantic, yet he was undoing all of her efforts.
"Ahem! I'll call Corinne to ask her what she'd like to eat."
Feeling embarrassed, Annie did not know what to say, so she took out her phone to call Corinne. No one picked up.
"This is weird. Why didn't Corinne pick up the phone?"
"Maybe she didn't hear the phone ringing," replied Aaron.
Sighing, Annie put away her phone.
Even if they were going to have lunch, it was still very early. Alas, she would need to be alone with Aaron for a few minutes, and the thought of that gave Annie a headache.

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...
