Chapter 276
“Uncle Jeremy! You’re back!” Annie immediately got up from the hospital bed to make way for Jeremy as soon as she saw him appear.
However, her expression froze when she saw Anya coming in with Jeremy, and she subconsciously turned her head to see how Corinne reacted.
Corinne’s expression remained calm, and there seemed to be no emotional changes at all.
“Did you just wake up?”
Jeremy walked slowly to the side of the hospital bed. He stood in a dignified and relaxed posture, with his hands inserted elegantly in his trouser belt. His calm eyes were indecipherable as he gazed downward at her.
“Yeah.” Corinne nodded, looked at Jeremy’s handsome eyes, and shifted away without lingering too long on him as she looked at Anya who was by his side.
The man could tell what she wanted to ask and turned around
to look at Anya beside him. He then turned back to Corinne and said softly, “She wanted to see you.”
Annie stood to one side and let out a barely discernible cold
snort from his nostrils.
Anya, like Corinne, was wearing a puffy hospital gown. There was gauze wrapped around her forehead, and her injured appearance made her look even more slender and weak–the very epitome of a sick woman who needed to be cared for.
Chapter 276
However, she did not seem haughty at all and had a cheerful yet easy–going smile on her face. She took the initiative to step forward and ask concernedly, “I heard Jeremy say that you were hospitalized due to allergies, and I came with him to see you because I’m a little worried about you. How are you feeling now?”
Corinne replied politely, “Thanks for your concern. I feel much better now. How about you, Miss Anya? You look injured too. Are you okay?”
Anya touched her gauze–wrapped forehead and sighed helplessly, “I’m fine. It wasn’t a very serious car accident. All I suffered was a graze on my head. My family’s a bit fussy though, and they insisted that I had to be hospitalized for a couple of days‘ worth of observation!” She had something of an annoyed expression on her face, like there was nothing that she could do with what her family members imposed on her.
Yet, that very helplessness inadvertently revealed how much she was cherished by her family, who lavished her with love and affection. Since she received such care ever since she was a child, she did not lack wealth, companionship, and love— anything she wanted could be had without any effort, which allowed her to act like a child. The good life she had then probably meant that she had saved the world in her previous life.

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...
