Chapter 184
Lilliana leaned into Marvin’s arms and coughed twice. “I am an honest woman, and I’m not afraid of some test! Let’s do it right now, Marvin! There’s no point in me living anymore if we don’t clear things up today and…” Before she finished, her eyes closed halfway, and she seemed to be in a state of half-unconscious pain.
“Mom! Mom?! Are you okay?!” Sherlyn rushed over, knelt beside Lilliana, and shook the unconscious woman’s body anxiously. “Mom! Don’t scare me! Don’t leave me… Hic! Hic!”
Marvin panicked, too. “Lilliana! Lilliana! Wake up…”
Lilliana closed her eyes completely and pretended to lose consciousness.
Sherlyn was not too worried because she could tell Lilliana was simply pretending. To play along. with her mother, she cried and feigned resentment. “What else will it take for you to believe Mom? Corinne came back to provoke us on purpose! Didn’t you notice that we’re always at odds with each other every time she comes home? If something happens to Mom today, I don’t want to live anymore either…”
Marvin felt confused. He looked at his eldest daughter who was crying violently, and at his younger daughter who stood indifferently to one side. The scale in his heart began tilting toward the more pitiful looking of the two, which was Sherlyn. He then lashed out angrily at Corinne, “Why are you just standing there, Corinne? Hurry up and call an ambulance! Are you only going to be satisfied if something serious happens to Lilliana?”
Corinne’s heart was filled with cold disdain, and she found the entire charade rather laughable too.
Lilliana was a woman of many tricks, and it was no surprise that she would be so confident in Marvin’s love for her and her daughter. It had been conclusively proven that Marvin’s heart ached for the two of them as long as they shed tears.
Though Lilliana and Sherlyn were stained with evil and malice, Marvin always remembered what little good things they did. In the end, he would forgive them, believe in them, and dote on them again.

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...
