The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1863
Calling Anya his mother made Joey extremely uncomfortable.
However, Anya was delighted that Joey finally came to his senses and was not that scared of her anymore. She showed a more sincere smile and said, "Of course, my boy. But, before Mommy lets you out of the cage, you have to answer some questions. If you answer them well, Mommy will let you out immediately. Deal?"
"Deal," replied Joey with a nod.
Anya grinned and asked, "First, sweetie: How was your life with the Holdens?"
Joey thought for a while and answered, "Umm… Not bad…"
Anya did not like what she heard. "What do you mean, not bad? Be more specific!"
Joey observed Anya's reaction and grasped an idea of what answer would please her, so he answered, "Not bad… As in so-so… I was given food and clothes, but they still favored Daddy's biological children more. I'm different from them, so I never get what they have."
Joey knew those were all lies. He had a great life with the Holdens, and Corinne treated him and his siblings equally.
Luckily, Anya bought his lies. It was exactly what she wanted to hear. She looked at him sympathetically and said, "My poor boy. You must've endured so much hardship just because you're an adopted son! But you don't have to go through that anymore now that Mommy's back! You're going to stay with Mommy. We'll be together forever, okay?"
"Okay," answered Joey uneasily. It took a lot out of him to go against his conscience.
'Mommy said that we must learn to endure, so I'll obey this scary lady as much as possible until I can see Mommy again. Yes, I'll do just that!' thought Joey to himself.

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...
