Lucas turned toward her. "Go on. Spit it out."
Corinne got up and looked at him with resolve in her eyes. "Mister Lucas, I think there's something wrong with the way you're disciplining Mister Sunny."
Lucas smiled. "Miss Corinne, I didn't expect to run into you again so soon. Why, it was just moments ago we ran into each other at the hotel. I haven't even asked you what you're doing here and yet you dared to question the way I discipline my brother? In any case, who made you the queen of discipline?"
The contempt in Lucas's voice was obvious but Corinne was unfazed by it. She continued to look at him indifferently and said, "I might not know everything there is to know about disciplining a child but I do have first-hand experience of what it feels like to grow up in a house that gives out bad disciplinary actions so I thought I should warn you to stop doing what you're doing or else you'll come to regret it in the end."
Lucas pulled out a chair, sat down on it, rested his elbow on the support, and placed a side of his face on his hand. "Then what do you suggest I do instead? Tell me, I'm all ears."
Corinne raised her eyebrows and glanced at Sunny, who was acting like a mouse who saw a cat, before casting her calm and sharp eyes back at Lucas.
"Mister Lucas, I know you're doing this in the hopes that Sunny would turn out to be a decent human being but don't you think attacking his self-esteem is not the way to go about it? He'll only learn to doubt or even hate himself whenever he runs into a problem in the future."
Sunny was stunned. He looked up at Corinne with surprise. He never imagined Corinne would understand what he was feeling and stood up to his brother for him.

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...
