Being alone with Aaron was torturous enough for Annie, let alone being alone with him in such a suggestive setting!
"What are you doing? I thought we were just going to have a casual lunch," said Annie with confusion.
Aaron, who sat across from her, looked even more charming under the candlelight. He rested his chin on his hand and said, "Yeah, we are. But who's to say a casual lunch can't be romantic too?"
Annie's lips twitched. "I might've thought you were a very romantic guy if you treated me like this in the past. All I can think of now is how embarrassing and awkward this is."
Aaron smiled. "Why? Is it because you have a boyfriend?"
Annie frowned and said seriously, "Yes! It's exactly because I have a boyfriend. It's not right for me to have a candlelit dinner with another man behind his back!"
Instead of feeling ashamed, Aaron gloatingly replied, "You wouldn't feel embarrassed if you don't have any feelings for me. That must mean you still like me, right?"
Annie's face darkened. "Mister Aaron, to be honest, I think you're a dirtbag. My liking for you is going down the charts with every passing second. I suggest you behave yourself."
Aaron smiled. "Going down the charts? In other words, your liking for me was so high that, even though it's going down the charts now, it still hasn't reached zero, right?"
Annie was speechless. She did not know whether to be impressed or annoyed by his wittiness. In the end, she decided she had lost all of her appetite. Ignoring Aaron, she took out her phone to call Jeremy.
"Hey, Uncle Jeremy? Where are you right now?"
"I'm driving," said Jeremy coldly.
"Are you on your way to the office or somewhere else?"
"Why are you asking?"

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...
