Corinne was only teasing him, but Zachary looked into her eyes and said, "Maybe I have."
Corinne was taken aback and looked at him skeptically. "Is it that easy for you to fall in love with someone? You're such a jerk!"
Zachary was speechless.
Corinne seemed to be very stubborn.
He lost his temper and pulled her into his arms. Though he could not move his legs, his upper body strength was not to be underestimated.
Before Corinne could react, Zachary pulled her into his lap and clutched her waist tightly.
"You're very familiar to me, even though I don't remember you. I wouldn't describe what I feel now as love at first sight. It's more like friends at first sight. But, I will admit that you intrigue me."
Corinne struggled as hard as she could but was unable to free herself from his embrace. She eventually decided not to waste her energy struggling. She was not so much worried about being in close contact with him as she was about putting too much pressure on his already infirm legs. Then again, since he was already hugging her that tightly, it was more likely that he was not in any pain.
"Okay, I believe you! Let go of me a little, will you? Your tight hug is getting a little uncomfortable..."
He took in her faint scent and felt an even deeper sense of familiarity. He wanted to be closer to her and instinctively held her tighter as if he could not bear to let her go. "Don't move. You can leave after letting me hug you for a while longer."
Corinne did not protest, but she asked, "Aren't you afraid we might get caught?"
"I locked the door," Zachary replied.

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...
