Chapter 159
Jeremy merely glanced coldly at Corinne. As he held her cell phone up high, he slid his long thumb across the screen and accepted the call before putting it on speaker.
Aaron spoke gently from the other end of the line and said, “Why did you hang up on me all of a sudden when you called me earlier?”
Corinne was speechless.
Jeremy stared at the guilty-looking Corinne. “Is this the friend you spoke of?”
Corinne did not respond to him. ‘We’re friends and he’s my subordinate, but it’s just not that convenient to tell you!”
Luckily for her, she did not save Aaron’s number, or Xante’s for that matter. She had long. committed them to memory, and as long as Aaron did not let anything slip about their relationship, Jeremy would be none the wiser as to her long-standing friendship with Aaron. “Why aren’t you saying anything, Miss Corinne? Where are you? Should I come and look for your right now?” Aaron asked earnestly and enthusiastically once again.
Jeremy’s handsome eyes narrowed and he slowly retracted his raised arm to lower the cell phone to face level. He then said coldly, “She’s already married. His tone was very flat, but it was thunderously strong and laden with a possessive intent that so perfectly emphasized his supremacy.
Aaron then asked in a surprised voice, “What?! Who are you?”
Jeremy gave a cold, three-word reply, “I’m her husband.”
Aaron remained silent for a moment and his tone sounded very hurt as he said, “No! That’s impossible! I won’t believe it! Where’s Miss Corinne? I want to hear her say it-”
Before he could continue to ramble on, Jeremy pressed the ‘end call’ icon and did not want to listen to it anymore.
He lowered his face and threw the phone back harshly to Corinne. He smirked and said. sarcastically, “I didn’t know you were this impatient. Were you that eager to call him back?”
Corinne’s lips twitched. “It’s not what you think! What Mister Aaron said to me in the lobby of Newmoon Group was super weird, and I didn’t understand what he meant by that. I only called him back to ask if there was some kind of misunderstanding…”

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...
