Chapter 433
Before this, Corinne never answered the question so straightforwardly nor did she ever call
him first.
Jeremy chuckled. “I’ll be back in a few days. There’s still some work left for me to do here. Be at good girl and wait for me to come back, okay?”
“Okay,” Corinne replied coldly.
Jeremy quickly hung up the phone after that because the toddler in his arms was starting to cry for his mommy.
Corinne’s eyes lost their sparkles when she heard how busy Jeremy sounded on the phone. She then laughed at herself. ‘How could I be so stupid?”
She always thought she was a very rational girl, unlike those girls whose existence was all about finding their soulmates. She was never the one who fell blindly in love or trusted men. However, the fact of the matter was she was human after all.
Corinne never once doubted Jeremy, not even when Anya showed her the cesarean scar on her abdomen and told her she had a kid with Jeremy. She thought Anya was just lying, wanting to drive a wedge between her and Jeremy.
‘And here I thought Mister was the responsible kind who will never abandon his kid, but he lied to me just now. He’s standing right there and yet he told me he’s still abroad,’ she thought.
She could not help but think that in the half-month that he was gone, he was in the city all along to take care of Anya and their kid. ‘Is there a need to lie to me like that? If he wants to be with her then he should tell me! It’s not like I’ll stop him from doing that.”
Corinne understood very well her relationship with Jeremy was just a facade so she had no right whatsoever to interfere in his life. She would not have held out any hope to be with him if he did not suddenly tell her he wanted to start over with her.
She also knew that Jeremy only married her because he was forced to do so by his elders, who were worried that he would not be able to extricate himself from Anya if their relationship were to continue. The elders, they could not stand for that to happen because of the bad blood between the two families.

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...
