Chapter 52
Corinne respected Jason for being honest in answering. Just as she was about to fight back, however…
Jason smiled and stopped her from talking. “Wait, don’t answer that. It’s going to look bad on me if I continue to bother you when you specifically reject me.”
From the way Corinne reacted, he was sure she was going to reject him. It was not going to happen, even if she tried to be polite.
This startled Corinne. At that point, she had a feeling that this man was very smart.
“Corinne Carew?” Jason tried to call her full name.
“Huh?” She had to look up at him because she was enjoying her dessert when he called her.
He smiled. “Nothing. I heard this name uttered just now, so I wanted to make sure it’s yours. How do you spell it? C-o-r-i-n-e?”
“No. It’s C-o-r-i-n-n-e. Double n,” she corrected him.
“I see. Corinne Carew… What a lovely name. You look very lovely, too but your personality doesn’t really match your look,” he said.
Annoyed, she rolled her eyes at him. This, to Jason, looked adorable.
He chuckled. “Oh, that’s right. There’s a gallery open for the first viewing today. Are you free? Do you want to go see it with me?”
She shook her head without considering it. “No.”
He was slightly disappointed, having been rejected. Nevertheless, it did not stop him from continuing to persuade her. “Are you sure? I heard the art gallery is exhibiting many famous paintings that were once lost in the world. It’s a once-in-a-lifetime chance to see the real pieces!”
Corinne still shook her head. “Thank you for the offer, but I should be heading home.”
After all, Grandma Holden cooked soup for her and was waiting for her to go back to drink it.
Jason raised his hand to look at the time on his watch. It was not even four in the evening yet.” Going back home so soon? So you’re a good girl after all!”
Corinne merely ignored him because there were incoming messages on her phone. The
notification beeped a few times.

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...
