Aaron went into the kitchen to heat up the food.
Corinne glanced at Tommy. As annoyed as she was with him, there was nothing she could do about his presence. Thus, she sat at the dining table to wait for her lunch.
Tommy frowned worriedly. He then took out his phone to text Jeremy.
[Mister Jeremy, Miss Corinne is having takeout for lunch. It doesn't look like anyone living in the apartment knows how to cook.]
Meanwhile, back at Holden Group.
Jeremy was in a meeting, listening to his subordinates giving a slideshow presentation when his phone flashed twice.
He picked up his phone to read the message, which caused his eyes to darken. He quickly replied to Tommy's text message.
[Did she drink the soup?]
Tommy looked up at the thermos that Corinne ignored ever since she left it on the table.
[No.]
After that, he did not receive any more reply from Jeremy. Nonetheless, he could feel his employer's anger through the screen.
He looked at Corinne, who was eating the beef Wellington, and took a deep breath before saying, "Miss Corinne, should I heat up the soup for you since you're already eating lunch? I'm pretty sure the soup Mister Jeremy made is healthier than the mushroom soup from the restaurant."
Corinne ignored him.
Tommy picked up the thermos and was about to go into the kitchen when Aaron stopped him.
"What soup is that? I can't let her drink something of unknown origin."
"Mister Aaron, this soup is cooked by Mister Jeremy using only the freshest ingredients. It's not something of unknown origin like you said."
"More the reason I can't let her drink it! Who knows, Mister Jeremy might've poisoned the soup!"

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...
