Chapter 447
Compared to the pretentious answers given by the candidates before, Corinne’s answer was like a breath of fresh air.
‘Wait a minute. Why does her voice sound so familiar?’ thought Edmund. He looked up and his eyes immediately widened in recognition. ‘Corinne Carew?!’
Corinne smiled amicably at him.
Edmund snapped out of his shock and frowned. He reminded himself to be wary of her since. her history with both Lucas and Anya were less than desirable.
“Miss Carew, what are you doing here?”
“I came here for the interview, of course.”
The frown on Edmund’s forehead became deeper. “You want to be Mister Lucas’ executive secretary?”
Corinne nodded confidently. “Yup.”
Edmund did not have a good impression of her. He thought she came here to make trouble for the Riveras so he said coldly, “I’m sorry but, given your past, I don’t think Mister Lucas would have to have you as his executive secretary. You may leave now. Next!”
Corinne remained seated. “How do you know he wouldn’t want me to be his executive secretary?” she asked with the same amicable smile still on her face.
Edmund was just about to answer her question when Corinne added, “Don’t tell me it’s because you have a gut feeling.”
Edmund became speechless.
Corinne smiled. “Well, I must say this certainly isn’t very professional of you. How can an interviewer reject someone based on their personal feelings instead of meticulously going through the candidates’ ability to carry out the work listed down in the job description?”
“Well, what would you do if you were in my shoes?” Edmund asked. He was not at all happy at having to deal with her.
Corinne straightened herself up and said, “You should at least take a good look at my resume to see whether I’m qualified for the job, and if I’m not, you’ll need to give me a valid reason for not being selected.”
Edmund’s face became as black as thunder. Not being able to come up with a comeback, he could only grit his teeth and flipped through her resume.

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...
