Corinne raised her gaze calmly. "I'm innocent, why should I admit to anything?"
Lucas narrowed his eyes darkly. "If it wasn't you, then why were you holding the murder weapon?"
Corinne lifted the chisel in her hand. "Are you talking about this? Miss Anya forcefully gave it to me, saying it was for self-defense!"
Lucas found her unreasonable. "Corinne, don't you find these words you're saying laughable?"
Corinne's expression remained calm. "I'm speaking the truth. If you find the truth laughable, then it's your problem, Mister Lucas."
Lucas's face darkened, believing that her current attitude was not only an attempt to escape blame but also a challenge to their family's authority.
"Corinne, I'll give you another chance to confess. I can still let you bear the consequences of your actions. Otherwise, I'll make your whole family pay!"
Corinne looked at him unperturbed, feeling a tinge of irony and amusement in her heart.
Make her whole family pay?
Does this so-called 'whole family' refer to those with blood ties?
If so, then this Mister Lucas would probably be the first to die!
If it doesn't refer to blood relations, it doesn't matter even more. She doesn't have any so-called family, to begin with.
"Whatever."
The word softly spoken by Corinne left Lucas shocked and bewildered.

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...
