Corinne looked at Lucas serenely and called him again. "Lucas."
Lucas was pleasantly surprised. He was so excited that his hands started trembling. "Corinne, can you please call me again? I didn't hear it the first time."
Corinne frowned, but she did as she was told. "Lucas, I want to eat cream puffs."
Lucas was so touched that his eyes became red. "Okay. I'll get someone to buy it for you right away!"
Corinne nodded docilely. "Okay. I'm somewhat thirsty too, so can you please get me some water?"
Lucas quickly stood up. "Sure! I'll go get you a glass of water right now!"
He looked around the empty room and saw there was no drinking water since Corinne had just moved in. Out of habit, he turned and wanted to have Edmund get some drinking water, but he realized Edmund was still not back yet.
"Wait right here, Corinne. I'll go get Sunny to get you some water," said Lucas.
Corinne nodded docilely again.
Lucas brought out the thermos from the hospital room and was about to order Sunny to get him some warm drinking water when he realized Sunny was not outside.
"So I asked your butler, and he said Corinne has been rushed off to the hospital…but he didn't say which. I then guessed you'd bring her to the nearest hospital, so here I am. How is she doing right now? Is she okay?"
Lucas narrowed his eyes. "Drop the act, Miss Sophia."
Sophia looked at him innocently. "What do you mean? I'm not acting at all."
Lucas smiled coldly at her. "Don't pretend you don't know how Corinne ended up in the hospital. Didn't you go to my house in the afternoon with the sole purpose of provoking her? I've questioned the servants, and they told me that Corinne found out about Jeremy's death from some fliers.
"Just how stupid do you think I am, Miss Sophia? Nobody has ever dared to distribute fliers around my house unless they have some hidden agenda. Plus, the Holdens would never do this sort of sh*t. Who else could be behind the fliers but you?"

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...
