Chapter 56
At that moment, Corinne raised her head and, spotting Pamela, was stunned. Despite feeling weak, she feebly greeted, “Grandma? Why are you here…?”
Before Pamela could say anything. Francine stepped forward with her arms on her waist and scolded, “Corinne Carew! Aren’t you ashamed of yourself? The Holdens would never allow a sl*t like you to be part of the family!”
Sunny looked pleased with the result and joined in, saying, “Corinne, you’re caught red-handed! Stop pretending!”
Corinne’s eyebrows furrowed. At that moment, she did not have the energy to argue with them.
Unlike the others who barged into the lounge, Jason stood quietly and watched them before turning his attention back to Corinne. She looked pale, still. He was amazed by the relationship between her and the people who barged in. Gradually, he connected all the dots.
After he helped Corinne to sit steadily, he got up and smiled. “Hello, ma’am. I didn’t know you were coming. Why didn’t you send someone to notify me in advance? If I knew it earlier, I’d be at the door to welcome you.”
Francine cut in again and snorted with disdain. “You *sshole! How are we going to catch you two red-handed if we informed you ahead? Besides, my grandma doesn’t need to be welcomed by people like you!”
Jason remained smiling and gave Francine a glance, but he ignored her. He tried to explain to Pamela peacefully, “Ma’am, Corinne is resting here because she felt sick. She wanted to go to the bathroom, and she nearly fell due to how weak she was. I was just helping her when you guys came in.”
Sunny sneered sarcastically, “Oh, how nice of you. Do you really think we’re going to believe what you said? It’s just an excuse. What else can a man and a woman do when they stay in the room by themselves?”
Jason’s charming eyes glared at Sunny pointedly. Even though he had a smile on his face, it felt more like he was unhappy with what he just heard. “Oh? You’re here too, Mister Sunny? I don’t. recall you being invited to this art exhibition.”
Sunny was embarrassed when he remembered he cheated his way in. “Ahem! I attended on my
brother’s behalf.”

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...
