Seeing Sunny's reaction, Xante's suspicion was basically confirmed.
"Okay, I won't call the doctor." She sat on the chair next to the bed. "But how about I open up the bandage to check how the wound is doing?"
Sunny's face froze. "Uh… I don't think that's necessary. I'm really okay, Xante."
Xante pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses and said seriously, "You won't let me or the doctor check your wound, so I can't help but think you're not injured at all."
Sunny blinked and immediately looked away. "Of course I'm injured! Why would I be lying here if I'm not injured?"
Xante stared at him coldly. "Okay, you said you were injured, right? I'm going to check the hospital's emergency records to see if you're on the patient list!"
Xante stood up, turned, and walked out of the room.
Sunny knew his cover was blown, so he quickly sat up on the hospital bed and said, "Xante! Don't go. I admit I was lying! You were right… I wasn't injured at all…"
Xante stopped and turned to glare at him. "Why did you lie to me?"
Sunny got down from the bed and lowered his head like a dog who caused trouble.
"I have to stay in the hospital with my dad, but I miss you so much, so I came up with this lie to get you to come here."
"You could've just told me that instead of putting up this charade!" said Xante with a darkened expression.

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...
