"Fine. You can stay in your room instead of annoying me here if you don't want to go back to work," said Corinne.
Aaron revealed a vulnerable side of him that he would only show to Corinne. "Boss, I actually need your help with something."
Corinne looked sideways at him. 'I knew this was coming.'
"What?" she asked gruffly.
"Can you tell Annie I'm so sad that she's ignoring me and choosing her boyfriend over me?" said Aaron cheekily.
Corinne was already annoyed by what happened, so she did not hesitate to push him away. "No! Not happening! Did you care about what she was feeling when you asked her to buy you some condoms that one time?"
Aaron also knew he was guilty of that, but he still tried to defend himself. "That's 'cause I didn't like her then! Plus…it was you who asked me to make her give up on me."
Corinne glared at him. "So this is all my fault? I only ask you to stay away from her. I didn't ask you to do something so hurtful!"
Aaron waved his hand. "No, no, it's not your fault. In fact, it's all my fault, and I really regret it! If it helps, I didn't use the condoms she bought. Can you please help me? This is about my lifetime happiness… Do you have the heart to watch me die alone?"
Corinne scoffed. "Sorry, but I don't want to help you men anymore. You only want Annie because she's with someone else now. Let me ask you something: Would you still stay with her once the novelty wears off?"
"Of course I will!" answered Aaron unwaveringly. "I'm so sick of playing around with other girls that I don't even want to look at them anymore. Please, Boss! Please help me get Annie back. Pretty please?"
Corinne had never seen Aaron acting so stubborn about a woman before, so she thought he must be serious this time.
"Well… Let me think about it," she said finally.
Aaron broke out in a happy grin. He knew that was as good as her agreeing to help him, so he hugged her and rubbed his face onto her shoulder.
"You're the best, Boss!"
Corinne simply rolled her eyes.

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...
