Chapter 286
In the quiet hospital corridors, Corinne could be seen hurriedly striding past the nurses‘ station as she made her way to her ward with Jeremy following closely behind her.
Witnessing this, the nurses began to whisper excitedly
between themselves.
“That’s him! That’s him! That man is Miss Anya’s boyfriend!”
“Oh my god! He’s so handsome!”
“But why is he chasing after another girl right now instead of being with Miss Anya in Room 302?”
“Please don’t tell me the three of them are involved in a love triangle!”
A frown immediately appeared on Corinne’s face when she overheard what the nurses said. Annoyed, she sped up her pace.
She turned to close her door once she was back in her ward, but Jeremy quickly blocked the door from closing with his hand. “What is the matter with you?” asked Jeremy through the gap.
“You shouldn’t come in, Mister,” said Corinne as she struggled to close the door.
“Give me a good reason why I shouldn’t go in,” demanded Jeremy with a darkened face.
Corinne nodded and said, “Fine. Move your hand, and I’ll tell you.”
Jeremy, being the trusting fool he was, immediately moved his hand only to have the door closed with a bang in his face. Then, he heard the sound of the door being locked from the inside.
He was rendered speechless for a while.
“Don’t be like this. Open the door and let me in!” said Jeremy as he knocked on the door, his patience running thin.
No sound came from inside the ward. Corinne had made up her mind to ignore him completely.
Jeremy furrowed his brow and said, “Corinne Carew, open the door this instant, you hear?”
No sound, still.
Jeremy was at a loss for what to do. He sighed and made up his mind to swallow his pride.
“Hey now, won’t you be a sweetheart and open this door for me? Could you at least tell me what’s wrong? I know it’s my fault that I came back late, and I should be punished for that. But Corinne… Corinne dear…sweetheart…” Jeremy cooed.
Suddenly, Tommy spoke up from behind Jeremy, causing the latter to whip around with a scrunched -up thunderous face.
Tommy had no idea what was happening. All he knew was something was off, so he tried to explain himself, “Umm… Sir, I was caught up in a traffic jam and the food you asked me to buy went cold, so I went back to the same place to get a new one. This here is still hot. Please let Ma’am eat it while it’s still hot.”

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...
