"I've told you a thousand times that I'm not a kid anymore!" warned Sunny.
Corinne did not take what he said to heart. She simply said, "I'm going to finish all the steak if you don't want to eat them."
"I do want to eat them!" said Sunny arrogantly with a lift of his chin before grabbing some steak off the grill. He did not have many opportunities to eat barbecue since he did not have the money to.
Lucas feared that Sunny would pick up bad habits if he gave him lots of pocket money, and he would not allow him to eat fast food either. Thus, Sunny would either eat at the school cafeteria or at home.
It was only when Sunny got together with Xante that he got to eat outside. Frankly, he did feel ashamed that Xante had to pay for all of their dates. Thus, he vowed to make it up to her once he got a job.
Corinne went up to her room to take a shower after she finished her dinner. Even though they had the air-conditioner on in the dining room, the heat from the tabletop grill still caused her to sweat a little.
After she came out of the bathroom, she scrolled through her phone with one hand while drying her hair with a towel with the other. It had been two hours since she wired the money to Jeremy, but he still did not accept it.
Corinne did not want to owe Jeremy, so she texted him to remind him to accept the money. She wanted to block him after he received the money since there would be no point for them to keep in contact after that.
However, not only did Jeremy not accept the money, but he did not reply to her either.
'Ah, well. I'll just remind him again tomorrow if he doesn't want to accept it today,' thought Corinne with a frown.
The painting had already been delivered to Corinne's room. It was resting against the wall, waiting to be put up. Fragmented memories from when she was little began to rush into her mind as she stared at the painting.

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...
