Annie looked at Corinne with admiration and adulation. “I was right to make you my goddess! You’re the only person who can bring my uncle down from his ivory tower to experience the wonders of this world!”
The corners of Corinne’s lips twitched as she smiled stiffly.
It was not so much her ability as it was the agreement that existed between them. Since he needed her to cooperate in being affectionate in front of his grandmother, he had no choice but to be magnanimous and invite her to a meal.
Jeremy shot Annie a cold look. “Didn’t I tell you to reflect on your mistakes at home? Who said you
could come out?”
Annie pouted and stuck out her tongue. “I don’t want to stay at home and spend my time reflecting on it! Isn’t it depressing enough for me to get cheated on and have my wedding ruined? How could you bring yourself to have me lock myself up at home and reflect on it!”
Jeremy ignored her protests and looked at the two people beside her.
Sunny looked at Jeremy respectfully and greeted him. “Hello, Jeremy.”
Jeremy nodded slightly, as if to acknowledge his greeting. “How did the three of you end up together? Where have all of you been?”
The curly-haired woman smiled warmly and tucked her hair behind her ears as she came forward. Sunny and I went shopping and ran into Annie there.”
Jeremy closed his eyes, responded with a soft grunt, and said nothing else.
The curly-haired woman looked at the freshly-served food on the table and said enthusiastically, You two seem to have just started eating, and we happen to be searching for a place to eat too. May we join in?”
Rather than answering them, Jeremy looked at Corinne as if to get her opinion.
Corinne was concentrating on her food when she realized that he was looking at her. She immediately understood what he was trying to imply and said indifferently, “Sure. I don’t mind!”
He was paying, after all, and she was only there to fill her tummy. Whether or not they joined did
not matter to her.
After Corinne made her stance known, Jeremy nodded and said, “Have a seat then.”
The curly-haired woman was startled to see their interaction, and her expression sank right then.

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...
