Anya was completely shocked because Lucas had never spoken so harshly to her before.
"But I really, really love him… You of all people should know that…"
Lucas knitted his brows together. "It takes two to make a relationship work. Yours is a one-sided love. If the other party doesn't love you, then it doesn't matter what you do, he still won't love you. Why don't you let him go, Anya? Time will heal all wounds and you'll definitely come out better for it."
Anya's eyes immediately reddened as tears spilled out of her eyes. "Lucas, what's the matter with you? Did Corinne say something to you? Why does it feel like you have completely become another person? Don't you love me anymore?"
No matter how annoyed Lucas was with Anya, there was one thing he could not stand to see and that was her crying. She was still his baby sister after all. 'Maybe I was a little too harsh on her…' he thought.
Lucas patted Anya on the shoulder in a bid to comfort her, "Come now, don't cry. I only want what's good for you, Anya. Do you know how much it hurts me to see you losing yourself over Jeremy?"
Anya rubbed her tear-stained face against Lucas' arm. "But I really, really love him! I can't help myself…"
Lucas put his hand to his forehead to quell the throbbing headache that was starting to show itself. 'The gods must be playing a joke on me! Why did both of my sisters have to fall for the same man? Why do I have to be caught in the middle?'
After sending Anya, who was tired out by all the crying, home, Lucas went straight to his office. Now that there were only the two of them, Edmund deigned to ask, "Mister Lucas, how did the talk with Miss Corinne go? Did she accept you as her brother?"

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...
