Corinne did not really want to stop Aaron and Annie from getting married. She was just worried that Annie would be heartbroken by Aaron again.
She and Aaron had grown up together, so she naturally had faith in him as a friend. As a husband? Aaron was definitely not husband material.
She turned to the not-so-smart Annie and said very seriously, "Annie, since you've already decided that you are willing to trust Aaron again, I won't say anything more and wish you both the best. But If he does happen to let you down in the future, you must remember to come to me, and I'll deal with him for you."
Annie looked at Corinne with tears in her eyes. She then stood up and crossed over Aaron to hug her. "Oh, Corinne. You're still so good to me, even though Uncle Jeremy isn't here anymore."
Corinne was not used to this kind of close contact, so she took Annie's hand away with a dry chuckle and pushed her into Aaron's arms. After that, she sat a little further from the two of them.
"Now, why don't you two go and do the wedding planning? I'll be sure to attend with the children."
Annie nodded gratefully. "Speaking of it, this is the second time you attended my wedding. I am really touched...and also a bit sad. You and Uncle Jeremy were still together when you guys attended my first wedding, but now he's…"
Annie would inevitably feel sad, and not to mention feel sorry for Corinne, at the thought of Jeremy. 'It must be hard for Corinne, yet she still stubbornly waits for Uncle Jeremy to come back.'
Almost everyone in her family and in the Holden family presumed Jeremy to be dead.
Corinne said nothing. In the past, if someone mentioned Jeremy in front of her, she might have felt a little sad. However, things changed. She already knew where he was, though he did not remember who she was. She had not told anybody else about it, however.

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...
