Chapter 195
Jeremy had a straight face as he turned around and went to get the bacon from the refrigerator Inside the kitchen, the two of them silently did the respective tasks without talking to each other. Jeremy’s gaze was constantly transfixed on the petite girl beside him as he chopped the bacon
The mac and cheese with crispy bacon were finished in mere minutes, and Corinne said to Jeremy, “You can bring the bowls to the dining table now I’ll head to the bathroom for a bitt
Jeremy had no objection as he picked up the two bowls and walked out of the kitchen.
At that moment, Bowen the butler came in from the outside and was terrified to see Jeremy bringing the bowls to the table He looked all around and saw that no servants were wailing on duty. They had sneaked off somewhere and neglected their duties just because Jeremy was not there!
“Sir! When did you return? Please allow me to help you! You shan’t be allowed to do these things!
Jeremy glanced at Bowen but did not hand over the bowls to him. He placed them down on the dining table, pulled out a chair, and sat down before asking in a deep voice, “Are you saying that t shouldn’t be allowed to do these things, but my missus can be left to her own devices?”
Bowen was taken aback and immediately understood what Jeremy was implying. He explained shamefully. I’m very sorry, sir. I have failed in my duties. Thad just gone to the yard to water your grandfather’s orchids, and I didn’t know that the young ma’am had woken up and wanted to have dinner. The servants at home are resentful because of what happened to your sister, so…”
Jeremy lowered his eyes and rebuttoned his cuffs. If they’re resentful, I can replace them with those who aren’t. “His tone was calm, but there was an intimidating boldness about him that sent chills down one’s spine
Bowen did not dare to intercede for the servants because he could see that the young master was genuinely angry and not just giving him empty threats.
Corinne came back from the bathroom to see Bowen, so she asked politely. “Would you like some mac and cheese, Bowen? There’s still some in the pot!”
Bowen was flattered and quickly waved his hands. “Thank you for your kind offer, but I’m not hungry! I, uhh… I still have some things to do, so please enjoy the meal with Mister Jeremy. I’ll send someone to clean up the dishes later.”
After saying that, Bowen excused himself, went to look for the lazy servants, and gave earful.

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...
