Chapter 603
Gertrude had a repulsed gaze in her eyes, and she shook her head vigorously while saying, “I want Emily. not her… She’s not Emily…”
Edgar frowned when he heard that and felt very puzzled ‘Why isn’t she recognizing her
Anya, who had finally gained Edgar’s trust only to face such rejection from Gertrude, could not help but feel a little quilty. She looked up, glanced at her best friend Rosie to ask for help, and had the expression of being at a loss to beckon her best friend into helping her.
Rosie sensed Anya’s signal for help and immediately spoke up for her.
“It’s her, Madam Gertrude! She’s the one who played Consort Aileen on stage and performed the opera, but you probably don’t recognize her now. She’s changed into a different costume and put on a different style of makeup.
“She was going to sing another piece, which is why she’s dressed differently from earlier. Please don’t get anxious. Take a deep breath and have a closer look.”
Edgar also calmed his wife’s agitation as he coaxed, “Yes, Gertrude! Look carefully. She was the one you wanted to meet earlier. How could you not know what Emily looks like?”
After hearing everyone’s comments, Gertrude looked at Anya again under the guidance of her husband and stared at Anya’s face carefully before finally being convinced.
“Emily?”
Edgar winked, motioning for Anya to say something.
Anya was smart enough to figure out that the old man wanted her to temporarily play the part of their daughter–her Aunt Emily–to appease Gertrude for the time being.

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...
