Chapter 293
Jeremy was not someone the police officers could afford to cross. At the same time, Lucas made it clear to them that they must not let Corinne off the hook easily. Facing pressure from both sides, they were at a loss for what to do at that moment.
“Who said there’s not enough evidence?” Lucas‘ crisp clear voice came from the elevator.
“Lucas!” exclaimed Rosie happily. Her eyes immediately lit up at the sight of him.
Lucas strolled over leisurely with a kind of self–assuredness that only the very wealthy like him and Jeremy could possess.
A certain level of confidence fell over Anya’s face when she saw Lucas walking over to them, but she chose to remain standing passively next to Jeremy. She did not want to leave his side if given a choice.
Sunny was awed and nervous at the same time. He wanted to make a run for it but decided it would be worse if he got reprimanded for that.
“Lucas, good timing! The officers said Corinne would only confess to her crimes if there was circumstantial evidence of her meeting up with the perpetrator. But where can we get that kind of evidence?”
“Well, look no further,” said Lucas with a crook of an eyebrow.
Rosie was stunned. “Do you have it? Do you know where we can find some circumstantial evidence, Lucas?” questioned Rosie quizzically.
“I’m the circumstantial evidence you’re looking for!” exclaimed Lucas with gentle authority. “Coincidentally, I saw Corinne meeting up with the perpetrator two nights ago.”
Lucas positioned himself in the middle of the crowd and nodded politely to the police officer as a form of greeting. Then he cast a ‘friendly‘ glance at Jeremy and said, “Jeremy, I do apologize. I have no choice but to intervene in this matter since it concerns the safety of my sister.”
He pretended to speak humbly, but there was no denying the wilfulness in his energy.

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...
