Chapter 266
Xante hurried over to take the glass of milk from Corinne and placed it back on the coffee table. She then drew out a piece of tissue and passed it to her before she helped soothe her back.
After a while, Corinne finally stopped coughing. “Xante,
you’re right. I’m in a bad mood today.”
Xante nodded and asked, “Okay. Why?”
When this topic was brought up, it seemed like fire was burning in Corinne’s eyes.
“Because Jeremy was ridiculous. I was having a good day, and he suddenly had me witness them seeing each other again after a long time. Regardless of what really went on, I’m still his legally married wife. That was very disrespectful.”
Xante’s lips stretched into a thin line. “That…really is too much.”
Corinne frowned unhappily. “I know he wants me to know his beloved woman is back, or maybe he’s thinking of reminding me to watch myself and avoid causing the apple of his eye any misunderstanding, but he could’ve used actual words to do that. It was totally unnecessary to let me live in that moment.”
Xante agreed by nodding. “Yes. It was very rude of him to do that.”
Corinne leaned back on the couch frustratedly. “That’s why I felt so annoyed and frustrated. How am I going to be his wife when I’m stuck between them during the remainder of my contract period?”
“Oh, I see!” Xante curled up her lips into a smile. “Don’t go back. Let them live happily ever after and just ignore them!”
That was exactly the problem Corinne had been thinking of. “I can’t. The contract is for three months, and it’s only been half a month. I must honor the contract. Besides, that old man isn’t easy to deal with. If I ran away halfway, I’m sure he’d search the whole world just to know where I went. It’s going to be even more troublesome then.”
“So you’re going back tomorrow?”
“Yes. I only have one month and a half left. I have to bear with it, even when I don’t want to.”
Xante got up and went behind Corinne to massage her shoulders, feeling sorry for her. “I feel so bad for you.”
Corinne pursed her lips. Honestly speaking, being Jeremy’s wife was even harder and more exhausting than engaging in hard labor.
Ever since she moved into the Holdens‘ estate, her life had been so dramatic.
Xante thought about it and asked another question, “But… As someone who has experience, I’d like to ask one more
question. Did you sleep with him during this period?”

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...
