The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2917
Karen stayed in the marriage and endured the abuse day in and day out for Sadie's sake. She did consider running away with her daughter, but she knew that once captured, she would be subjected to even harsher beatings. Thus, she lost the ability to fight back and no longer dared to escape.
Karen never imagined Esmond's departure would be so abrupt at the time. It was as if he had an awakening and took all the cash from the house before leaving their world. At that time, Karen often wondered if Esmond had died somewhere. Otherwise, he would not have spared her and her daughter so easily.
Then, she realized he was probably fighting for territory with other thugs on the streets.
Karen felt contempt at the time. Esmond's life amounted to nothing more than earning money through force. She would never touch that kind of money. The last time she contacted him was because she could not think of any other way to deal with Rita, only for that brat to escape again.
Esmond had called a few times afterward, but she did not answer as she did not want to give him any hope that their relationship could be rekindled. To Esmond, their shared past was one of immaturity, but to Karen, it was a complete nightmare. She never wanted to return to that man's side again.
"Karen? Karen!"
Rita called out several times before Karen seemed to hear her. "Oh, what's the matter?"
Rita asked her, "Are you unwell? I called you several times, but you didn't respond. I thought something was wrong."
Karen smiled weakly. "Maybe it's because I didn't sleep well last night..."
Upon hearing that Karen had not slept well the night before, Vince immediately stood up and helped her up, saying, "Let me take you upstairs to rest for a bit. I'll also call the doctor to come and check on you."
"It's nothing serious. I just didn't sleep well last night, so it's only natural I'll feel tired right now. Besides, I haven't even finished eating," said Karen.
Rita could only detect the sweetness in her words. Regardless, her father did indeed know how to take care of a pregnant woman.

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...
