Chapter 435
Corinne nodded. “Thank you.”
As usual, she walked slowly up the stairs but halfway through, she stopped, turned around, and asked, “By the way, Bowen. Have my things arrived?”
Corinne arranged the engagement gifts she got back from the Carews to be delivered to Holden’s estate.
“Yes, ma’am. I’ve already asked the maids to keep it in the storeroom. Would you like to take a look?”
Corinne waved her hand. “That’s okay. Just remember to tell Jeremy about it when he’s back.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
She then continued on her way. The reason she got the expensive engagement gifts back was so that she would not own the Holdens anything.
Bowen looked quizzically at Corinne walking up the stairs. He sensed there was something off about her but he could not quite put his finger on just what it was. ‘Oh well, it’s probably nothing,’ he thought. Then he quickly went to the kitchen to instruct the cook to make something for Corinne.
Before he left, Jeremy specially told him what to look out for in Corinne’s diet. She was allergic to quite a few things so he told Bowen to doubly make sure no food that would trigger her allergy should make way to her plate and because of this, Bowen would personally try all the food before giving it to Corinne.

After taking a shower in her room, Corinne changed into a set of loungewear. Then she ate the lunch brought by the maid and proceeded to take a nap. She felt easily tired as of late which she now knew the reason to be because she was pregnant.
A feeling of unbelievable comfort spread through her body as soon as her head hit the pillow.’ I’m going to miss this bed so much,’ thought Corinne, who got used to sleeping in the big bed.
Eventually, she dozed off while planning for her future.
It was late at night. The air turned cold and the wind was blowing fiercely.
Bowen got woken up by the sound of the wind and he immediately ordered the servants to check all the windows were closed properly so that no dirt or cold air could blow in and disturb Corinne’s sleep.

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...
