Chapter 704
“Grandpa, you’re back!” Anya immediately ran up to her grandfather upon seeing him returning, wiping away her tears in an aggrieved manner.
Cedric Rivera glanced at his granddaughter, whose eyebrows were furrowed and had reddened eyes. “What’s the matter? How did you end up crying again? You’re such a child, always complaining about this and that, or crying, endlessly over trivial matters! Your grandmother and 1, at our age, have never been as difficult to please as you!”
“…” Anya trailed off.
She had hoped to receive comfort and support from her grandfather, but instead, she was met with a lecture full of disdain. Anya felt embarrassed and could not find a way to respond.
Although she had been pampered at home since childhood, with her parents, older brother, and younger brother treating her like a precious gem, her position as a granddaughter to her grandparents was slightly inferior to that of her older brother Lucas and younger brother Sunny. She always felt that her grandparents favored boys over girls.
“Grandpa, I didn’t cry on purpose. It’s because someone came to our house and caused trouble today…”
“Grandpa, it was just a small incident that’s been resolved. You don’t need to worry,” Lucas. walked over, forcefully interrupting Anya’s attempt to express her grievances to their grandfather. He gave Anya a stern gaze and addressed Cedric, “Grandpa, you’ve had a long day. Let them assist you in going upstairs to rest.”
Cedric did not like the sight of this talented eldest grandson either and snorted. “I think this girl is spoiled by you, my boy! She’s become so fragile, crying over every little thing. She could. break from a gust of wind!”
His words made Lucas’ brow furrow, and he started to reflect on whether he had truly spoiled his sister all these years….
Seeing that there was nothing unusual in the kitchen and not wanting to delve deeper, Cedric gestured for his attendants to assist him and prepared to go upstairs to rest.
As Cedric turned to leave, the people in the kitchen dispersed.
Corinne yawned wearily. “Mister, it’s getting late. Let’s go home and sleep.”

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...
