All of them—Lucas, Xante, Aaron, and Sunny—clenched their fists when they heard that. They could not stand by and do nothing anymore, so they all rushed into the yard.
However, a figure suddenly appeared before them after they had only taken a few steps. They were first alarmed by the newcomer but then became shocked when they saw who it was.
"I'll take care of them," said the newcomer. After that, he strode over to the small metal gate and kicked it open, surprising the seven or eight men eating and drinking.
"Are… Aren't you supposed to be dead? Are… Are you a ghost?" stammered one of them in shock.
"Where's my wife?" asked Jeremy with a death glare.
"We don't know who your wife is! Men, capture him! The boss will be happy to see him, I'm sure," said one of them.
Jeremy kicked over their grill, and some of the charcoal splashed onto the kidnappers' body and face, causing them to scream out in pain. After they calmed down, they rushed over to attack Jeremy.
That was when Lucas, Aaron, Xante, and Sunny rushed out to fight them too. After they had defeated them, Xante pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses before bending down to pick up one of the kidnappers by the collar.
"Tell us! Where's the pregnant lady you guys kidnapped?"
The kidnapper coughed up a mouthful of blood, revealing a toothless gap in his mouth, before answering, "She… She's inside!"
Xante flung him inside and gave him a kick to the head, causing him to pass out, before walking toward the shabby little bungalow.
Jeremy quickly walked toward the bungalow after he had taken care of the two kidnappers in front of him.

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...
