Jeremy was raging at Bowen just a second ago, yet he spoke so gently to Corinne a second later.
Corinne yawned and answered, "That's why I thought she should learn. You can see it as training her to be someone's wife in the future."
"Yes, you're right. It's time for her to learn all this," said Jeremy while stroking her head.
Bowen was floored. "When did Mister Jeremy become a man with no principles?"
The smile faded from Jeremy's face as soon as he turned around to face Bowen. "Where is she? Tell her to come see me this instant!"
"Miss Francine is washing the dishes in the kitchen…"
Suddenly, they all heard an ear-splitting crash coming from the kitchen.
"I'll go get her now," said Bowen quickly before running into the kitchen.
A while later, Francine came out of the kitchen with a defeated look. "Oh hey, Jeremy. You're back."
Jeremy looked her up and down. He could feel a headache coming. "What about greeting your sister-in-law, too?" he asked coldly.
Only then did Francine turned to Corinne and said grudgingly, "Hi, Corinne…"
Corinne simply gave her a curt nod.
"At your age, you should be able to clean up the house without breaking anything! It's not like you're good at your studies either, so just what can you do?" asked Jeremy sternly.
Francine lowered her head in shame. "Jeremy, I didn't mean to make all this mess. It's just… I've never ever done any housework in my life, and…"
Jeremy did not want to waste his time listening to her excuses, so he cut her off, "You have one hour to clean up all this mess."
"Fine…"
Corinne tugged at Jeremy's hand. "Mister, why don't you go up and take a bath? I'll stay here to have a little chat with her."

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...
