Chapter 157
Corinne sitting between them, but since she could not lose her temper right there, she relieved her anger by secretly reaching out to pinch the flesh just behind Corinne’s waist and twist it hard to relieve her anger.
Corinne was not prepared for that at all, and she hissed while wincing in pain. Her first instinct was to dodge and lean to the other side, but In doing so, she ended up bumping right into Jeremy’s chest.
He raised his arm to support her shoulder and lowered his eyes to ask in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”
Corinne immediately realized what had happened and wanted to avoid him like the plague, but he continued to hold her shoulder firmly. ‘What is he doing? Let go, d*mn it! Didn’t we agree that we’ll pretend not to know each other in front of Sherlyn?”
Sherlyn was even more upset when she saw Corinne getting so close to Jeremy. She gritted her teeth and reminded with a smirk, “What are you doing, Corinne? Don’t take up so much space on Mister Jeremy’s side! Move over here!”
Corinne glanced at the hypocritical instigator, Sherlyn, and then looked up at Jeremy to say, “I’m sorry, Mister Jeremy. I felt a sharp pain earlier, and I didn’t mean to do that…” As she spoke, she even winked at him to try and remind him not to forget his promise to her.
Jeremy remained silent for about two seconds and finally raised his hand to let go of her shoulder.
Corinne immediately moved back to her original position and unconsciously rubbed the pinched area on her lower back. Every movement of hers was captured by Jeremy’s sharp vision, and he narrowed his eyes as he watched her calmly.
Once Corinne sat back properly, Sherlyn no longer dared to pull any tricks on her for fear that it would have the unintended result of causing Corinne to take the opportunity to lean on Jeremy.
Sherlyn was beyond angry. ‘You’re such a shameless little b*tch, Corinne! You take every single chance to get close to men!”
The Wild Bites, the restaurant that Sherlyn chose, was situated in the city center and was only a 10- minute drive away. When they walked into the restaurant, the server led them to their table.
Sherlyn stood up gracefully once more and said, “Go ahead and order, Mister Jeremy. I’ll be right back after I go to the restroom,”
Jeremy nodded casually, and his indifferent eyes barely glanced at her for a second.
Sherlyn then turned to Corinne and said, “Come and keep me company, Corinne!” Her request to Corinne was merely an excuse to avoid allowing Corinne to seduce Jeremy in her absence.
Corinne nodded indifferently and got up to follow her.
Inside the restroom, Sherlyn looked in the mirror and touched up on her makeup, and through the reflection in the mirror, she stared in disgust at Corinne who was standing at one side while carrying her bag. She sarcastically remarked, “You can dream on if you think that Mister Jeremy will be attracted to a country bumpkin like you just because Newmoon Group’s Mister Aaron was blind enough to fall for 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...
