Chapter 536
Anya stayed in the ward to watch over Joey but her mind kept anxiously drifting back to Jeremy. She was not that worried about Joey since the doctor already told her his condition already stabilized and this would not affect his health in any other way.
The reason he was hospitalized was because the doctor was worried Joey’s wound would get infected from improper caring so it was best to monitor him for a few days in the hospital. No, what Anya was worried about was why Jeremy asked to have a word with Corinne in private.
‘Why isn’t he back yet? What the h*11 are they talking about that it needs them to take so long? ‘thought Anya.
Joey fell asleep on the bed due to the overwhelming pain. From time to time, he would make a whimpering noise.
‘Poor child. He’s not even at the age where he can talk yet,’ thought Lucas, who was standing over the bed and looking down at him with a serious expression on his face. How could he, Joey’s uncle, not be angered when he saw how much pain his nephew was in?
‘Corinne is the root of all problems! Trouble seems to follow her wherever she goes! Not only is she a threat to Anya’s relationships with Jeremy but there’s a chance she might put her and Joey’s safety at risk.’
He regretted hiring her to work for him. Yes, she was a very capable woman at work and yes, she helped his grandfather once before, so Lucas did not want to leave her with no recourse. However, he did not like it when Corinne repeatedly challenged his limits by bullying and hurting Anya!
‘I must hire someone to get rid of Corinne for the sake of Anya’s safety and emotional health!’ thought Lucas. He then went outside of the ward to make a call.
Not long after that, Jeremy came into the ward.
Anya’s eyes immediately lit up. She stood up and went to greet him, “Jeremy, you’re back!”
However, she quickly realized something was not right. ‘Why is he back alone? Where’s Corinne?’

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...
