Corinne sat in the car as Lucas brought her back to the Holdens. She seemed to be lost in thought as she leaned against the window.
Lucas turned to her and asked, "Is Jeremy all right?"
"He's fine," Corinne replied wearily, "nothing serious happened."
Lucas then asked, "When do you plan to set the plan in motion?"
"Soon." Corinne narrowed her eyes.
Sunny escorted Xante back to his father's ward. Xante intended to leave the hospital with Corinne, but Sunny had been teasing her so much in the hospital hallway that she had no choice but to go back with him. It was nothing short of embarrassing.
Maxwell was already resting on his hospital bed. Upon seeing the two of them return, he sat up and immediately greeted his future daughter-in-law.
Xante had never been one to take advantage of other people, but since she returned with Sunny, she had no choice but to use Corinne as her subject of conversation. "I've heard that you're quite concerned about Corinne's well-being. Sunny mentioned that you've been feeling down today and that you'd like to hear more about her. Corinne and I grew up together, so feel free to ask whatever questions you want. I'll do my best to answer them."
'Sorry for dragging you into this, boss. It'll be too awkward here if I don't talk about you,' Xante thought to herself.
Maxwell's face lit up, and he seemed to have gained a bit of color on his face. "Oh? You were childhood friends with her?"

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...
