Chapter 702
Lucas‘ sharp gaze was fixed on his beloved younger sister who had been spoiled since childhood. “Are you sure you were there and saw everything?”
Anya felt rather guilty as she met her brother’s gaze and showed a hint of grievance.” Positive! Do you still not believe me, Lucas?”
Lucas narrowed his elegant eyes, a trace of doubt lingering in his eyes regarding his sister.” Then why did Joey himself say that Corinne didn’t harm him?”
Joey said that? Anya’s expression stiffened for a moment, and she quickly realized that the phone call her brother received earlier was from Edmund. Joey must have said something to Edmund, who relayed it to her brother over the phone!
She did not know what Joey specifically said, so Anya could not help but feel flustered, but she showed no slip–ups outwardly.

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...
