The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 26
Chapter 26
Corinne had a nonchalant expression. “Yes, and no.”
Jeremy was still focused on his documents as he turned over a page. “So it is a yes or a no?”
“Zoey was the one who put up a video, but I recorded their conversation with the cell phone and added it later,” answered Corinne truthfully.
Jeremy snorted. “I brought you here to be a bridesmaid, but you ruined the bride’s wedding on your own accord. How do you plan to explain yourself?”
Corinne frowned. “To be honest with you, I know better than to meddle in your family’s affairs, but scumbags are the bane of society, and I am duty-bound to end their existence if I see one.”
Jeremy nearly let out a chuckle as he smirked. “I never took you for a self-styled vigilante.”
Corinne was filled with righteous anger. “That Juan guy cheated on Annie and even tried to cop a feel when we first met and shook hands earlier. That just shows how degraded that f*cktard’s general behavior is! I don’t think you’d want your niece to marry that kind of man, right?”
Jeremy glanced askance at her. “He ‘copped a feel?”
“Yeah! A sick pervert like him will never treat Annie well!”
“And just how did he do that?”
Corinne felt that Jeremy had completely missed her point, but she answered anyway. “Well, he pretended to shake hands politely with me, but he slyly stroked his finger against my palm.”
Jeremy’s dark eyes darkened, and he did not say another word.
When they arrived, Corinne got out of the car and walked into the yard on her own. Jeremy seemed to have a lot of work to do, so she did not wait for him since she figured he was probably not going to get off.
Tommy got out of the car and yelled for her to stop. “Miss Corinne! Please wait a moment.”
Corinne stopped and turned around. “Is there anything else?”
Tommy went to the rear compartment and took out a picture frame that was tightly wrapped in kraft paper. He walked over and handed it to her, saying, “Mister Jeremy won this painting for you at an auction as a token of you for saving his grandmother yesterday. Please take it.”
‘A painting he won at an auction? It could only be…’ Corinne’s mind went blank, and there was excitement in her eyes as she peeled off the kraft paper wrapping the frame and glanced at it. True enough, it was ‘Geese in
Late Autumn’!
Jeremy bought that painting at a high price as a thank-you gift for her! Had she known earlier, she would have continued to let Aaron drive up the bid. The auction house and the seller could have sold it for much
more!

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...
