Chapter 133
‘Sigh. He saw me after all…’
Without waiting for Corinne to give a reason to explain, the man leaned over and approached her for a while with a stern, oppressive tone. “Didn’t I forbid you from drinking anything other people offer you? Did you forget what I said?”
There was such a disparity in height that Corinne was forced to tilt her neck upward
uncomfortably. “I didn’t. I remember…”
Jeremy lifted her small face forcibly again, with his fingers pinching her cheeks gently and the web between his index finger and thumb propping her chin up. He held her condescendingly and said, “And you still did it?”
Corinne explained uncomfortably. “Mister, it’s not what you think…”
The man’s face was calm as usual, but there was a bit of sullen annoyance in his expression. “How do you think I should feel when my wife is drinking with another man in front of me?”
Corinne was helpless. She knew she had been wrong and could only say concisely to him, “That’s because he has something I want!”
Jeremy’s hands relaxed slightly. “And what’s that?”
Despite her reluctance to let him in on more details about herself, she was unable to explain her situation clearly unless she told him everything. Corinne could only tell the truth and say, “Mister Jason has three paintings in his gallery that I want. He refused to sell them to me, but he said that he’d give them to me if I drink with him.”
Jeremy frowned and let go of her. “You can let me know which paintings you want. There’s no need for you to drink under duress.”
Corinne lowered her eyes and said plainly, “We’re not a real couple, so I don’t think it’s appropriate to bother you, let alone owe you.”
Jeremy looked at her indifferently. “It’s not a debt. As I said, I can give you everything except my feelings as long as you become Missus Holden for three months.”

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...
