Chapter 430
Aaron pretended to be embarrassed. “Why me? I’m still a virgin. It’ll be so awkward for me to buy that kind of thing!”
Both Xante and Corinne were speechless.
Aaron was only trying to be funny to liven up the atmosphere but it did not work as both Xante and Corinne were looking at him with disgust and with their mouths in a tight line.
He immediately dropped the act and shrugged. “Okay, okay. I’ll go get the pregnancy test. Huh! I can’t believe that 1, the owner of the Newmoon Group, am being ordered around like a little scullery maid. Sigh! What has become of my life!”
Xante gave him a side-eye and said nothing else as Aaron continued with his blabbering. She then started the car engine and drove to the nearest drugstore. While driving, she kept looking up at the rearview mirror to check on Corinne.
‘She doesn’t look too well after all that retching she did moments ago,’ thought Xante with at worried frown on her face.
Corinne was indeed not well. Recently, she burned candles at both ends in coming up with a design for Holden Group’s new building. She did not rest much even though she spent most of her days cooped up at home. Moreover, she seemed to feel tired easily to the point she suspected she might be suffering from chronic fatigue syndrome.
Aaron pointed to a drugstore outside the window and said, “Xante, we just passed by a drugstore. Why didn’t you stop the car?”
The more Xante thought about it, the more worried she became. “I think it’s best if I bring the boss to the hospital for a checkup,” she said solemnly.
“Did you forget that the boss hates going to the hospital?” asked Aaron quizzically.
“She’ll only need to do a blood test and that won’t take long,” insisted Xante. She looked at Corinne from the rearview mirror and said, “Boss, you should go to the hospital. You don’t look that well. You should do a check-up even if you don’t think you’re pregnant. Besides, what if it’s an ectopic pregnancy? It’ll be easier to treat if it’s detected earlier.”

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...
