The living room light was still on as Lucas sat on the sofa and sighed. He lit a cigarette and asked the servants to have an early night. He wanted to be alone for a while.
Wisps of smoke rose from the burnt end of the cigarette, but Lucas only took a few puffs. He was lost in thought.
Suddenly, a strong light shone through the French window and into his eyes. It was the headlights of a car.
'Who'd come at this hour?' thought Lucas irritatedly as he saw the car stopping at the main gate.
When he flicked the cigarette ashes, his phone on the table rang. His eyes immediately lit up after glancing absent-mindedly at the caller ID.
He quickly picked up the phone and answered, "Hey, Corinne. What's wrong? What can I do for you?"
"Open the gate!" said Corinne from the other end.
"Oh, that's you out there?" questioned Lucas with a raise of an eyebrow. "Hold on a sec, I'll get someone to open it for you right away!"
While Lucas was still on the phone, he ran to the yard and asked two servants on duty to open the gate.
When the gate was opened wide, Jeremy stepped on the gas and whizzed in, stopping right before Lucas.
Corinne got out of the car hurriedly and ran toward Lucas. "Where's your sister Anya?"

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...
