Chapter 403
Corinne looked at Anya in confoundment as the latter lay on the ground and put on a dramatic act.
At that moment, Lucas-the figure who had just walked out of the villa-rushed over and pushed Corinne away from Anya. She asked coldly, “Go away! What are you trying to do to Anya?
Then, without waiting for Corinne to offer an explanation, he bent down in distress and helped Anya up from the ground. Are you okay?”
A man’s strength would always be greater than that of a girl, so regardless of how stable Corinne’s center of gravity was, she nearly fell over after being pushed by Lucas. She staggered a step back and tried to stand firm again, but she unfortunately slipped on the cobblestone path that was made for the villa and failed to steady herself as she fell into the small fish pond next to her.
The water in the fish pond was not that deep, but because the villa was facing the mountain and thus had low night temperatures, anyone who fell into the water suddenly would be able to feel the biting cold. She propped her body up and poked her head out of the pool, looking like a drowning rat.
Just as she was about to get up, a tall figure suddenly appeared beside the fish pond and jumped down before wading through the water to reach her as soon as possible. The person stretched out his long arms and then carried her up completely. It was none other than Jeremy.
Corinne shivered. “It’s…s-s-so…c-c-c-c-cold…”
Jeremy took off the jacket he was wearing, wrapped her wet little body tightly, then lifted her in a bridal carry, and brought her out of the pond. “You’re all right now. You won’t feel cold anymore if you go back in and change your clothes”
On the edge of the pond, Lucas glanced at the dripping -wet Corinne in Jeremy’s arms, noticing that he had a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. He stepped forward and stood in front of Jeremy, saying, “Before you leave, I just want you to know
that I merely pushed her away to prevent her from hurting Anya. I didn’t think she’d make the most of the situation and fall in the water too!”
Corinne frowned because Lucas was trying to suggest that she threw herself into the water on purpose to try and draw

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...
