Anya's scream pulled Lucas out of his thoughts. He immediately looked around and saw the door to Luna's childhood room, which was off-limits to everyone, was open. From outside the door, they could see Corinne squatting on the floor, holding the music box in her hands dazedly as though thinking of something.
She slowly turned to look at Lucas and Anya when she heard Anya talking to her.
Immediately after, Anya screamed again, "My goodness, Corinne! Why did you break my sister's music box? That was her favorite!"
Corinne was unsurprised by Anya's false accusation at all. She simply stood up and calmly said, "I wasn't the one who broke it."
Anya pretended to look shocked. She then snatched the broken music box from Corinne's hand to take a closer look, even though she was the one who broke it in the first place. "Oh no… It's really broken. What should we do?"
After saying that, she turned to Lucas and said woefully, "I'm so sorry, Lucas. This is all my fault. I shouldn't have gone down to get some drinks for Corinne. I didn't expect she would come into Luna's room and break her favorite music box. If you want to blame someone, blame me instead!"
Anya knew Lucas hated nothing more than for other people to barge into Luna's room without his permission nor would he forgive the person should they destroy anything inside. Previously, a servant was cleaning the room when her shoe accidentally hooked on the curtain, causing the lace to become unraveled. Lucas was furious after finding out about it, and he punished the servant severely.
Therefore, there was no need for the room to be locked since no one would ever dare go into it. Everything in the room remained as it was before Luna disappeared. In fact, the room had become an eyesore for Anya for the longest time, but she dared not do anything about it since she was afraid of angering Lucas.

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...
