Francine scoffed and muttered to herself, "She might as well continue with the threats instead of pretending to be forgiving…"
Corinne turned to look at the mess on the floor. "I wouldn't have asked you to clean up the house if you didn't barge into my room and order me around. So tell me, do you now know what it feels to be forced to do something you don't like?"
Francine had lost her previous bravado, but because of her pride, she decided to stand her ground. "Who… Who do you think you are to teach me a lesson?!"
"Let me ask you something. How old are you?" asked Corinne calmly.
Francine rolled her eyes. "Twenty-one. Why?"
"Okay, so you're one year older than me, yet here you are living a life of an adult baby when you should be doing an internship right now."
"Why do I need to do an internship? Only commoners need to go through an internship to find a job! Besides, I'm rich!"
Corinne nodded. "You're right. Being born into a family like yours means you'll never have to worry about money, but what if you fall in love with someone one day? What do you think he'll like about you?"
Francine was speechless. It was not a hypothetical question to her since she still was madly in love with the hunk she wrote those love letters for, but he never returned her feelings. She never knew why either.
"How would you feel if your future husband only married you for your money? And not because of how kind, independent, or charming you are? Which of the reasons do you think will ensure your marriage will last long?" asked Corinne again.

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...
