Chapter 55
Suddenly, Jason bent down and got close to Corinne’s ear. He whispered, “But, if you like them, I can give them to you….as proposal gifts for your hand in marriage.”
Corinne grimaced and shot him an annoyed stare. She was going to ignore his joke, but as she tried to think of a way to get Jason to sell those paintings to her, an ominous feeling rose in her
chest.
She frowned, and her expression was looking terrible, too.
Jason noticed Corinne was feeling unwell and asked, “What’s wrong?”
There was sweat coming out of her forehead, and her lips had turned pale. “I’m just…not feeling quite well.”
Jason looked worried. “Did you catch a cold because of the low temperature in the art gallery?”
“M-Maybe.” She gritted her teeth uncomfortably. She even started to shiver.
Jason took off his jacket to put it on her. He said softly, “Let me bring you to the lounge so you can rest. There’s no air-conditioner there, so the temperature is slightly warmer.”
“Thank you.”
Corinne had a hard time standing firmly. In the end, she had to accept Jason’s support just so she could walk to the lounge.
Meanwhile, Sunny, sneakily hiding, recorded everything with his phone. He snorted. “Tsk! It’s broad daylight, and they’re heading toward the empty lounge by themselves. If that’s not something, I don’t know what is!”
With evidence at hand, he quickly shared the location of the art gallery with Francine.
Corinne and Jason arrived in the lounge, and her face had gotten paler by the minute. Not only was she shivering, but her teeth even clattered slightly too.
Jason brought a glass of hot water for her. “Are you feeling better? Should I send you to the hospital?”
It was so uncomfortable for her that she had to hug her stomach. Despite the pain, to rest for a while. Don’t worry about me. Go and be with your friends.”

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...
