Chapter 404
Everyone inside the villa living room was chatting
enthusiastically with each other, but as soon as Corinne
walked in, they all turned to her and stared at her with curious glances.
“Who is she? Why did she come in like this?”
“Is she trying to seduce someone with that wet, see-through look?”
“How the hell is she supposed to do that when she’s wearing denim shorts?”
“Don’t you think she’s super pretty though?”
“Who came with her? Why didn’t I see her around earlier?”
They speculated on her identity while staring at her and evaluating her appearance.
Corinne did not care one bit about their gazes when she came in, and her main purpose there was to look for Zeke-the villa’s owner-so she could ask him whether or not he could
spare her a set of clean clothes.
However, Zeke had never returned after his supposed
bathroom break’, and he was nowhere to be seen on the first floor of the villa. ‘Isn’t he the birthday boy? Where did he go?’
As Corinne was looking around, Jason-who was busy chatting with a friend-narrowed his eyes pensively and placed his wine glass down as he got up and walked toward her. “What happened, Corinne? Why are you all wet?”
Corinne heard the sound and looked over to see Jason. It had been a while since she last saw him, and he was still as charming as ever before with his picturesque eyebrows, succulent red lips, and pearly white teeth. Each of his movements was elegant and delicate, almost as if he had calculated the exact angle every single time.
“It’s you, Kind Sir! Now’s the time for you to show your kindness! Did you bring any female plus-ones here today?”
Although Corinne was in a wet and messy state, her expression was still calm and composed as ever, and her wittiness did not diminish in the slightest.
Jason was speechless. Despite finding it amusing, he was not used to the nickname ‘Kind Sir’.
“Hey! Look, you guys! Mister Jason is talking with that drenched woman!”
“What’s going on over there? Is she his girlfriend?”
“He always chooses the daughters of upper-class families as his companions, so why would he suddenly bring with him a girl that no one knows?”
“The way she dresses is nothing to shout about, but her beauty is simply out of this world!”
“What’s the use of being beautiful? Reputation and status are far more important than looks when it comes to being Mister Jason’s girlfriend!”
“That’s right! How did she even become his girlfriend? The clothes she wears look so cheap that they probably don’t even have a brand label.”
“Yeah, we dress way better than her, so why does she deserve to talk to Mister Jason?”
Zeke only invited his close friends as well as a few others who have a good relationship with him for his simple birthday celebration. Some of his guy friends brought along their female companions just to liven things up a bit more.

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...
