'A certain loving young couple?' thought Corinne. She glanced at Xante and Sunny, and she saw Sunny holding Xante's hand in his hoodie's pocket as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Judging by the smile on his lips, it was obvious Sunny was happy to hear Jason call them a loving young couple. Xante, however, was not very happy, but she did not bother to explain anything.
Corinne decided to ignore them. However, she could not help but think of Jeremy. He used to do the same thing to her in the past. He would not give up until her hand was locked in his. That was how overbearing he could be sometimes.
At that moment, the waiter came over, served a few cold appetizers, and left them to their meal.
On a whim, Corinne took a few photos of the dishes, then sent them through a special channel to Jeremy, asking him, [Do you want to eat?]
After waiting for a long time and not getting a reply, Corinne's eyes darkened. However, she then told herself that it must be inconvenient for him to reply to her, so she stopped worrying and put the phone away.
Corinne's action did not escape Jason's notice. He raised an eyebrow and asked tentatively, "Who were you texting?"
Corinne looked at Jason. "A friend. Jason, might I suggest you stop worrying about me and just eat your food?"
Jason sighed helplessly and started eating.
He thought that he would be able to have a good chat with Corinne over dinner, but his hope was dashed when so many people acted as the third wheel around the table.
Sunny secretly toyed with Xante's hand in his pocket, but she completely ignored him. She did not even look at him, causing him to feel very unhappy.
Sunny half-believed her. "Oh. For a moment there, I thought you guys were just like me and Xante. We skipped work to go on a date."
Xante could not take his nonsense anymore, so she squeezed his hand to tell him to shut up.
"Oh please, do you think I'm blinded by love like you are? That I have nothing better to do than to go on a date?" said Corinne indifferently.
Sunny felt Xante squeezing his hand and immediately understood she was telling him to shut up, but that just made him keep talking.
"What's wrong with being blinded by love? I think everyone should be blinded by love when they're with the person they love! Everyone should put their whole heart and soul into the relationship, and they shouldn't care about 'who did what for who' more. It's not love if you're scared of getting hurt. In fact, love shouldn't be transactional! It's either all or nothing for me!"

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...
