Chapter 131
If Corinne shared a drink with another man, It would be equivalent to walking blindfolded into Jeremy’s minefield. The consequences would be disastrous, so the plan could not be executed.
After giving it some thought, Corinne tried to bargain with Jason. “How about another time? I’ll drink as many cups with you as you want.”
Jason was unmoved. “No can do. It’s either now or never. Time waits for no man…or woman.”
‘D*mn him!’ Corinne felt a little embarrassed and turned to look at Jeremy. He was still drinking tea while facing the other side and was not paying attention to her at all.
She looked back at Jason and eventually confirmed with him. “Let me get this straight. You’ll give me Nellie Nymphaea’s works for free as long as I drink with you, correct?”
Jason smiled and nodded without hesitation. “I’ll have them sent with you immediately if you can do it.”
Corinne turned around and looked at the tea table again. Jeremy was still as languid as ever as he faced the other side. He seemed to show no interest in looking at her.
She might not be discovered if she could get it over with it quickly.
Corinne pulled out all the stops to get her mother’s three paintings and picked up the glass of orange juice on the coffee table. “Alright. I’ll drink with you.”
Jason froze for a moment and was surprised she agreed to his request. ‘Does she want those three paintings that much, even at the expense of agreeing to my unreasonable request? Who is Nellie Nymphaea to her?”
When Jason saw the determination in Corinne’s dainty face to go all out for the painting, his eyes flickered slightly as a half-smile appeared on his face. His interest was piqued, and he took the teacup in his hand and slowly moved toward the cup of juice in her hand.
Their cups touched lightly, and their bodies leaned forward too as they got closer and closer locked on each other, they were about to toast when all of a sudden-

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...
