He asked this question, indicating that he already investigated the ins and outs of the matter. Corinne pursed her lips and truthfully replied, "On that day at the hospital, Lucas happened to have the same blood type as a victim of a car accident. I saw that the victim's daughter was young and pitiful, so I wanted Lucas to help by donating blood. But he negotiated with me and demanded that I terminate the pregnancy. In my desperation, I agreed."
Jeremy coldly snorted, "May I ask, Miss Corinne, did you obtain my permission before deciding to terminate my child?"
Corinne furrowed her brow and her gaze trembled with guilt. "What child of yours! Please, Mister Jeremy, do not jump to conclusions. The child in my belly has nothing to do with you!"
"Turn around and look at me when you speak!" The man's tone became more severe.
Corinne took a deep breath, adjusted her mindset, and turned her face to stare at him with wide eyes. She repeated, "The child in my belly has nothing to do with you!"
Seeing her like this, Jeremy's brows furrowed displeasingly as he coldly glared at her. "Fine, even if it's not mine, Miss Corinne, you and your husband have such a good relationship, how could you bear to terminate the child?"
Corinne's eyes drifted a bit, and she fabricated a lie, "Because, because we planned on being childless, terminating the pregnancy was already part of the plan!"
Before she could finish her sentence, her chin was gripped by the man's rough, large hand, lifting it. "Keep making up stories! Go on!"
Corinne blinked her eyes and looked away, toward the window. "I-I'm not making it up!"
She could only maintain a defiant stance with her words, but she felt childish and foolish. Why couldn't she be more composed in front of Jeremy? Every time, she ended up looking like a passive fool! It was so frustrating!

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...
