Sophia then said, "Well, you don’t need to move then if you're already lying down. I'll ask the hotel staff for a key and bring in the medication for you. The sooner you eat it, the better." She then proceeded to leave.
"Wait," Zachary called out to her.
Sophia stopped and asked, "Yes, Zachary?"
Zachary replied, "Don't trouble the hotel staff for a key. I'm already getting dressed. I'll open the door for you once I'm done."
Sophia responded, "Are you out of bed already? Be careful, okay."
Zachary exchanged glances with Corinne, and she wordlessly broke free from his embrace. Corinne stood up, opened the balcony door, and left.
After Zachary closed the balcony door, he moved over to tidy up the sheets before undoing two of his shirt buttons. He then went to open the door for Sophia.
Sophia scanned the room instinctively after she entered. Something seemed to be amiss, but she was somehow unable to pinpoint what it was.
Zachary saw her glancing around and asked, "Where's the medicine?"
Sophia looked at Zachary and was no longer suspicious after noticing the two unfastened buttons on his shirt. She handed him the pillbox and said, "This is it. Take two pills twice a day."
Zachary accepted it calmly and repeated her instructions. "Two pills twice a day. Got it."
Sophia reached out to touch his forehead. "Your fever seems to have subsided a bit. It'll improve even more if you take the medication now. I'll get you a glass of water!" She then turned around and went to fetch a glass of water.
Zachary looked at the medicine with a frown. He was perfectly healthy, so there was no need for him to take the medicine. Sophia had persuaded him into taking numerous different medications over the years, claiming that they would help aid his physical recovery. However, he could feel his legs grow weaker with every new medicine he consumed, so he stopped taking them.

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...
