They went to a private dining restaurant that was world-famous for its delicious food. It was notoriously difficult to get a table there. The owner was also a very mysterious, eccentric person. He never looked into the background of the guests and only arranged for reservations in the order they came in.
No matter who the guests were, how rich they were, or what powerful family background they came from, it all came down to luck whether one would get a table.
Adam had always loved the food there even before he moved abroad. When he came back this time, instead of considering those Michelin-starred restaurants, he thought of this restaurant first.
However, because he only made the reservation the day before, he did not manage to get a private room. In other words, he had to make do with a table in the main dining hall.
The 'family' sat around the table. Adam first took the menu and ordered a few special dishes that suited his taste before ordering some of the usual favorites of his wife and younger daughter. He then gave the menu to his eldest daughter.
Sophia took the menu and asked Jeremy, "Zachary, what would you like to eat?"
"I'm fine with anything, but order something light for Benjamin."
Sophia was a little disappointed that Jeremy only cared about what 'Benjamin' wanted to eat. He did not even bother to pretend to care about her in front of Adam.
However, she still nodded and did as she was told and ordered some light food for 'Benjamin'.
After ordering, Sophia handed the menu to the waiter and tried to strike up a conversation with Adam so there would not be any awkward silence among 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...
