Lucas stared at Corinne for a while before suddenly offering a gentle smile. "It's nothing. You don't look too good today. Did you not sleep well last night?"
"Yeah, I had a few weird dreams."
Lucas stood up and stroked Corinne's hair. "You shouldn't think too much before you go to sleep. You won't get weird dreams that way."
"Sure, whatever," said Corinne lightly.
After that, Lucas turned to Sunny and said sternly, "Sunny, I've informed your school you'll be taking the day off today, so you can stay home with Corinne."
Sunny did a double-take when he heard Lucas. 'What? Is Lucas being serious? This is the first time he's ever done that for me!' he thought happily.
Seeing how happy Sunny was, Lucas reminded him solemnly, "But that doesn't mean you don't have to do your homework. You have to finish them before I come home from work today, okay?"
"Got it," said Sunny with a nod. 'Why do I still have to do my homework when I don't have to go to school? Oh well, it's better than having to go to school. I can even sneak out when he's not home.'
After Lucas left for work, Sunny looked at Corinne admiringly and said, "Corinne, you're amazing! I can't believe Lucas gave me a day off school just because he was worried you'd be bored staying at home alone.
"I heard Lucas used to spoil Luna a lot, and I always wondered to what extent. Does he spoil her more than he spoils Anya? I see he spoils you even more than Anya! Don't get me wrong, he was really good to Anya, but only if she didn't do anything to test his principles. But the way Lucas treats you is like he has no principles anymore!"
Corinne chuckled wryly. "Hurry and finish your breakfast. You still have a lot of homework to do."
She did not really care who Lucas spoiled more.
"Umm, Corinne, can I go out later?" he asked earnestly, which was a contrast to his usual haughty attitude. "I promise to come back within an hour!"

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...
