"I want to save my son, my precious little one! Corinne, please help me, help me break open that door together!" Anya exclaimed, raising the chisel in her hand in excitement.
Corinne watched Anya's distressed and desperate state, squinting her eyes, feeling skeptical.
At this moment, Anya did indeed seem different from her previous acts. It did not seem like she was pretending.
If what Anya said was true, there might be a man inside that utility room who possibly took her child hostage.
Could it be a burglary? The thief was discovered by the child and, fearing the child's cries would alert the adults in the house, resorted to harming the child to silence them.
Considering this, with the safety of the child at stake, Corinne temporarily set aside her biased perspective of Anya and calmly advised her:
"Don't act rashly for now. Even if we break open the door, it won't solve the problem if someone is holding your son, hostage. It might even provoke the person to take extreme measures and harm your son! We don't know the situation inside the door or how many people are in there, so we should first call the people in your house before making any decisions!"
After speaking, Corinne prepared to go find someone from the Riveras.
However, Anya grabbed her, her eyes filled with panic, her voice trembling, "No need to call anyone. I've already called my brother. He and Jeremy will come right away! Corinne, we can't leave. If we go, what if the bad person inside takes the opportunity to escape with my precious child?"
Anya's grip stopped Corinne in her tracks, plunging her into deep thought.
Anya's concern is indeed valid. Both of them going out would provide an opportunity for the bad guys to escape, but it wouldn't be safe to leave one person here alone either.
Since she mentioned that she already called her brother, Lucas, let's wait here for a while!

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...
