Chapter 255
“In this world, two things can never be grasped. One is time, and the other is a human’s heart. If the other person’s heart is no longer with you, no matter what you do to please them, their heart will never be yours. Why, then, should you spend so much energy doing something so futile? It’s better to do a good job in your own business, improve yourself, and let yourself be the one who
holds the initiative.”
Annie was caught off–guard, and the confusion in her eyes was replaced with admiration. “Aunt Corinne, what you said is so philosophical! I want to learn from you! Don’t fret about men anymore and just focus on your career!”
Corinne pinched her glabella, fearing that Annie would get the wrong idea and thus patiently explained, “That’s not the case. It’s good to fall in love and enrich your emotional life, but remember to never surrender yourself easily, let alone entrust your future to a man, wronging yourself to please a man. Understand?”
Annie nodded, feeling wholly inspired. “Yes, I understand! Thank you for your advice, Aunt Corinne!”
Corinne did not know if Annie truly understood, so she could only stop talking, lowered her head, and continued to sip her coffee.
‘What could I advise on? I’ve never been in a relationship myself, and I was just talking nonsense based on my feelings.
‘Annie, on the other hand, is an easily impressed girl. I hope my words can give her a little more to think about so that she won’t fall in love so quickly after meeting a man with sweet nothings.‘
All of a sudden, her phone rang.
Corinne took out her phone and looked at it and realized it was Jeremy’s new number.
Well, it was he who gave her the phone in her hand as well as its SIM card, while he went ahead and got a new number for himself.
After answering the call, the man’s deep voice rang through the device. “Where are you?”
Corinne sipped coffee and replied, “Mister, I’m in a shopping mall in the city center.”
“With who?”
“Annie.”
The man said, “Give me a specific location, and I’ll send someone to pick you up.”
Corinne blinked. “Mister, are you back from your business trip?”
“Well, I just got off the plane.”
“Mister, you don’t need to send someone to pick me up. Annie is driving, so she’ll take me home.”
Jeremy was silent for two seconds before he replied, “In that case, both of you come to Lunar Century Manor after shopping. I have something to tell you.”
Lunar Century Manor? Could it be that the man was going to hold a birthday party for himself?
Chapter 5
Thinking of meeting his relatives and friends again, Corinne frowned. “Can I not go-”
“No!” The man seemed to have predicted her intentions and interrupted her almost seamlessly.” You must come. I want to see you.”

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...
