Chapter 554
Corinne nodded without hesitation.
“Yes. Since your sister has pretended to pass out, and we all know it’s impossible to wake person who’s pretending to pass out, you need to apologize on her behalf as well!” Lucas was speechless. No one ever so brazenly asked him to apologize to them before.
At that moment, Jeremy who was sitting not far away smoking a cigarette smirked. He narrowed his eyes slightly in both admiration and sarcasm as he watched Corinne trying to extract an apology out of Lucas.
‘She’s still as spunky as ever. No matter where she is or who she is going up against, she never backs down from a fight to uphold justice for herself and others. Lucas has certainly met his match this time,’ thought Jeremy.
He puffed out some smoke rings. The more he admired Corinne, the more unhappy he became. This was because it was the same spunkiness that made her ignore his feelings and run away without telling him to get married to another man.
At that moment, looking at Corinne, the amusement in Jason’s eyes became even stronger.’ She might look like a cute pushover but it would be foolish for anyone to mess with her alright. Interestingly, she would dare to make her boss apologize to her.’
After a long while of silence, seeing that Corinne was not joking, Lucas’ face darkened as he said coldly, “On behalf of my sister and I, we would like to apologize to you, Miss Carew. There. Are you happy now?”
Corinne smiled. “Yes. I accept your apology. And as compensation for framing me, be so kind as to give me the rest of the day off?”
Lucas frowned and glared at her in disbelief.
The smile on Corinne’s lips became even wider as she explained, “The whole matter has exhausted me so I’d like to go home to have a rest. I trust that an understanding and generous person like you will allow me to do that, right?”
Lucas never met such an opportunistic woman before! He scoffed and said, “Yes, go home and rest all you want. If it pleases you, you don’t ever have to come to the office again.”

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...
