"What? Uncle Jeremy isn't here? Why are you here, then?" asked Annie in confusion.
"He asked me to stay here to protect Miss Corinne."
Annie's lips twitched. "Oh my god, he's hopeless! Doesn't he know that what Corinne needs now is for him to spend time with her instead of asking you to stay to protect her? Ugh. You know what? Forget it! I'm going to see Corinne now."
After that, she went into Corinne's room with a box of chocolates in her hand.
Tommy sighed helplessly. He then texted Jeremy, [Mister Jeremy, are you going to visit Miss Corinne later?]
A few minutes later, he received a reply from him. [Did she say she wants to see me?]
[No. She didn't say anything.]
This time, Jeremy replied faster. [Okay. All you need to do is keep an eye on her.]
Tommy sighed again. [Understood, Sir.]
Somehow, he was panicking even more than Jeremy. He had just put away his phone when he saw Annie walking out of Corinne's room.
She handed him some chocolates. "Here, these are for you."
"For me?" repeated Tommy with surprise. "Oh, it's okay, Miss Annie. Please keep them for yourself."
Suddenly, Annie remembered something. "By the way. Uncle Jeremy—"
However, before Annie could finish her sentence, she felt someone coming up from behind her and whispering into her ear, "What are you guys eating? Is there any for me?"
She immediately jumped up from her seat as though she had seen a ghost before blurting, "Your… Your share is with Corinne. You can go get it yourself!"
Aaron crossed his arms and smiled. "Someone here doesn't like me going into the boss' room. Would you be so kind as to grab it for me?"
Both Tommy and Annie were speechless.
In the end, Annie went to Corinne's room to get Aaron his chocolate.

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...
