Chapter 27
After the ‘kiss’ was over, Corinne pushed Jeremy away at once.
She gladly took the painting from Tommy and walked away with her arms held around it. After about two steps, she turned back to give him a wink, even complimenting him, “Thanks, uncle! You’re super handsome today!”
Jeremy’s expression was sullen and vague as he pursed his thin lips. ‘Did that little snob call me handsome only after I gave her a gift?”
Tommy watched Corinne walk cheerfully into the courtyard and unconsciously beamed. “She’s actually… rather cute!”
Jeremy shot Tommy a cold look. “Still staring at her, are we?”
Tommy looked away in fright. “Ahem! So where are we going next, sir?”
“The company.”
“The company it is!”
The next day, Corinne received a call from Annie just as she was eating the sumptuous lunch Pamela made
for her.
“Corinne!”
Corinne did not have Annie’s number saved, but she recognized Annie’s voice and asked, “Why do you have my phone number?”
“I got it from my uncle!”
Corinne was even more surprised. “And how did he have my number?”
“Well, he’s your husband! Isn’t he supposed to have your number?”
“Oh, yeah, you’re right.”
“What are your plans today, Corinne? Why don’t you come and have a drink with me if you’re free?”
Corinne frowned. “Who drinks in the afternoon?”
“I’m hurt, and I need to vent!” grumbled Annie, sounding suspiciously drunk as she slurred her words. Come on, join me! It’s so boring to drink alone!”

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...
