Chapter 277
Jeremy waited for further instruction from Corinne after hearing what Anya said. He knew that the little girl grew up in the countryside and had a relatively poor relationship with the Carews, but if she wanted to see them, he could grant her that wish.
“Thanks for your concern, but unfortunately, I don’t have family,” Corinne answered expressionlessly.
Anya was stunned. “What? Umm… I’m sorry, Corinne. I didn’t know.”
“It’s no biggie,” Corinne smiled and did not seem to mind what Anya said at all. Truth be told, it was better not to have a family rather than have one just like the Carews.
Anya felt very moved when Corinne did not get angry at her, so she stepped forward and gently took one of Corinne’s gauze -wrapped hands while remarking emotionally, “You have such a good personality, Corinne. We share a pretty odd fate too, considering we were both admitted to the hospital on the day we first meet each other! You can treat me like your sister from now on. Don’t hesitate to look for me if you feel like you need anything!”
She held Corinne’s swollen hand carefully and suddenly did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Your hands might be painfully swollen, but they look cute, like little pom–poms!”
Corinne stared quietly at Anya who was being all intimate with her and looked down at her hands. A sudden thought occurred to her, and she seemed to have found the answer to the

conundrum. She had confirmed that she did not touch any

obvious allergens before she suffered an allergic reaction, and the only person aside from Jeremy who touched her hand was Anya, who did so twice!
Anya showed her kindness at the entrance of Holdens‘ estate and came over to hold her hand.
Corinne withdrew the first time because she felt awkward, but she could not bring herself to resist the second time because Anya seemed too kind. Could that innocent -looking girl have done something to her hand?
“At least we can keep each other company and not feel lonely these couple of days at the hospital!” Anya said with a smile.

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...
