Instead of turning his attention to Lucas, Cedric simply smiled and asked Corinne, "Corinne, how old are you?"
Corinne took a sip of tea before answering, "I'll be twenty this year."
"Twenty? Why, that's perfect!" Cedric nodded satisfactorily before his expression became solemn. "If I guess correctly, you're probably still single, right? Well, it's a good thing I know an excellent guy who's still single too. Do you want me to introduce him to you?"
Corinne smiled and said, "I…"
"There's no need to be shy, child! It's best for a woman to get hitched as soon as possible 'cause otherwise all the good men will be taken and all that's left will be crooks and sc*ms!" added Cedric.
Jeremy frowned when he heard this. He took a sip of tea before sneaking a peek at Corinne.
The corner of Corinne's mouth started twitching. She never expected the reason Cedric asked her to stay was so he could set her up with a guy. Cedric seemed to be on a roll as he started selling the good points of the guy he wanted to introduce to Corinne.
"Corinne, you're my savior so I'll never introduce any guy who I don't think is worthy enough for you. It just so happens an old professor friend of mine has a grandson who's a professional singer with his own albums! Meaning to say he's one of those idols who's worshiped by young women like you. He's not only good-looking but he can sing and dance as well! Not to mention he came from a really good family. I know all this because I watched him grow up. He's definitely a good man who you can spend the rest of your life with."
Corinne was about to turn down the offer when Cedric suddenly burst forth with the guy's name. "He's called Eddy Wilde. I must say he's quite popular. You can look him up online if you don't believe me. There are loads of his photos and videos online. One look at them and you'll know I wasn't lying when I said he's very good-looking."

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...
