Chapter 358
Jeremy narrowed his eyes at Anya before turning back to face Corinne with a questioning look, asking her what he should do.
Corinne furrowed her brow. ‘Why is he looking at me like that again? What… Is he asking me to be the bad guy here ‘cause he’s too embarrassed to turn down his ‘savior‘? Man, he’s really devious, huh? Oh well, I’ll help him out this one time, seeing as how he’s been really nice to me for the past
few days.”
Corinne rested her chin on one hand and lazily turned to look at Anya. “Miss Anya, you know that your brother’s subordinate can’t be late to work, yet you don’t seem to realize that this applies to your Jeremy, too.”
The combination of the word ‘your‘ and ‘Jeremy‘ caused the man beside her to frown.
Anya felt wronged. The corners of her eyes turned down, making her look even more fragile and innocent. “No, Corinne. I didn’t mean it like that… I just thought that it’ll be fine if Jeremy is late since he’s the boss of the company, whereas Edmund is just an ordinary worker who has to clock. in at work on time. Lucas has a strict system in place and will punish anyone who’s late to work.”
Corinne smirked. “Oh my, you’re certainly very considerate of others. No wonder the people around you are so willing to go through fire and water for you. However, you’ve forgotten one thing. It was your brother who sent Edmund here, so he’s technically on the clock, therefore he shouldn’t be punished if he’s late to the office. Besides, I believe that Edmund wouldn’t have worked with your brother for so many years if your brother was this harsh to his right–hand man.”
Here, Corinne took a yawn before adding, “But I’m fine if Jeremy is willing to give you a ride ‘cause it’s true what you said–your house is along the way to his office after all.”
She smirked before turning around and raising her eyebrows mischievously at Jeremy. “Am I right,
Mister?”

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...
