Chapter 285
Amazingly, Corinne left the man stumped with just a few words.
Jeremy leaned lazily against the door frame and placed his hands on his belt. There was a gentle sense of pride as he watched his wife gain the upper hand against Lucas. ‘That’s my girl!‘
He then walked over and asked, “Why did you come out instead of resting in your ward?”
Corinne saw that Jeremy had come out of Ward 302 at some point and was walking toward her, which drew a frown from her as she said unhappily, “I’ve been sleeping too much and I’m bored, so I thought of coming out to check whether or not you’re still alive.”
Jeremy’s expression turned sullen, but he seemed to have gotten used to her ability to irritate people and was not angry as a result.
His big rough hands covered the top of her head and massaged her impudently. “Sorry to burst your bubble, but I’m still alive. Were you disappointed?”
Corinne dodged the man’s touch smoothly by moving a step. She despised having him touch her when his hand had just been hugging another woman! Tiredness began to sink in, so Corinne waved her little swollen gauze -wrapped hands and said, “Carry on, folks. I won’t be joining your conversation anymore!”
She then turned and left.
Jeremy followed Corinne naturally, and Anya ran out suddenly to hold the corner of his clothes. Tears welled up in her eyes as she said, “Don’t go, Jeremy! Stay with me, please. I’m scared…
Jeremy paused and looked at Anya. Rather than responding directly to her, he looked up at her brother Lucas and said, ” My family is very strict, and it’s inconvenient for me to take care of your sister.”
Lucas’s eyes dimmed slightly, and he nodded gracefully.‘ Understood.”
Jeremy then calmly broke away from Anya’s hand and said to her, “Your brother is here to keep you company. Rest well.” He then picked up the pace with steady steps and caught up with Corinne who was far ahead of him.
Anya wanted to catch up when she saw Jeremy leave, but Lucas took his younger sister’s arm and advised her kindly, “Be good, Anya. He’s already married.”
Anya shook her head aggrievedly. “I know that Jeremy only got married to deal with his old man. He never really intended to marry…”
Lucas reminded her in a gentle but stern tone, “Whatever his reasons for marrying, the fact remains that he’s married. You’re an innocent girl, Anya. Don’t get too close to married men in the future. Listen to my advice!”

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...
