"Corinne already has her hands full with everything that's going on. Not to mention, she's also busy trying to get Jeremy out from under Sophia's thumb. I don't think we should add to her problems," warned Lucas in a deep voice.
Sunny's heart naturally went out to Corinne, but he was not going to sit by and do nothing when his father was dying!
"But—"
"Enough! I forbid you from calling her!" warned Lucas again.
"Fine," said Sunny reluctantly. Even so, he made up his mind to ask Corinne for help when he saw how pitiful Maxwell looked lying on his hospital bed.
'Lucas only says I can't call her. He didn't say anything about going over to the Holdens' estate to talk to Corinne. I'm just doing what he's telling me not to do,' thought Sunny.
…
The next day, Maxwell refused to eat when he woke up. He looked at Sunny dully and asked, "Where's Luna? When is she coming to see me?"
"Dad, please eat something first! I haven't called Luna yet. It's so early, and she might still be sleeping," coaxed Sunny helplessly.
Hearing this, Maxwell assumed Sunny was lying to him, and the light in his eyes went out again. He refused to eat, take medicine, or speak.
Sunny had no choice but to ask the servants who had come to stay by his father's side and watch over him. While Lucas went home to comfort their grandparents, Sunny left the hospital and went to the Holdens' mansion.
The Holdens were having breakfast when Sunny arrived.
The Holdens and the Riveras had never gotten along with each other due to the blood feud between them. Thus, it was not surprising Beatrice and Cedric did not look too happy or welcoming when they saw Sunny.
Corinne could tell Sunny had something to say, so she asked Francine to help her look after the kids. She then took a sip of milk, picked up a sandwich, and got up to talk to Sunny in the yard.

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...
