Sunny frowned in consternation. "Jeremy must have developed feelings for you during the three months you were together. Otherwise, he wouldn't have treated you so well. He became depressed after you left and it took him a long while to get out of it. Now that things are going well with him and Anya, I hope you'll leave them alone. Compared to you, Anya needs Jeremy more since her health is failing as we speak."
'Jeremy was depressed because of me?' Corinne thought with disbelief. 'Huh! So what? He brought it on himself. Serves him right for tricking me into believing he has feelings while he goes around playing a happy family with Anya and Joey. He's probably just depressed because I called him out on his bullsh*t and he couldn't take the humiliation.'
Sunny stared at Corinne pointedly, causing a frown to appear on his face. "Corinne, there are plenty more fish in the sea. You can be my sister-in-law if you're interested in Lucas. He's every bit as good as Jeremy. H*ll, I'll even help you to get him in the bag."
The corners of Corinne's mouth started twitching. 'So this kid is willing to sacrifice his brother to secure his own sister's happiness.'
"Don't worry, Mister Sunny. I won't steal your sister's man because I have better things to do than that and thank you for your kind offer but I'll take care of my own love life. You should know there are plenty of guys lining up at my door so you can keep your beloved brother to yourself."
Sunny was a little peeved at Corinne's refusal of Lucas. He scoffed and said. "Oh, I'm very well aware you don't lack any suitors at all 'cause I saw someone pick you up in a luxury car at the airport."
Corinne did not deign to give him an explanation. She was perfectly okay with letting him think whatever he wanted.
Seeing Corinne unfazed by his little jabs, Sunny became even more upset at not reaching his goal so he said angrily, "Corinne, do I need to remind you of the many women who got thrown away after the rich men got bored of them? Men like that will never take responsibility for the women they used. It's fine if you don't like Lucas but that doesn't mean you should just accept any man that comes your way! That's how you end up getting hurt. In fact, why don't you just marry me? I promise to treat you right as long as you don't fight over Jeremy with Anya!"
Corinne looked at Sunny, who was sporting an expression of a martyr, with her brow raised. "You make it sound like I'm forcing you to marry me."

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...
