Lucas nearly called Corinne 'Luna' again but quickly stopped since he did not want to anger Corinne any further. "Ahem! I'll get you when it's dinner time, Corinne."
Corinne decided to take him up on his offer. "Very well, then. Thank you. Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to rest. Can you please go out?"
Lucas stared at her before he turned and walked out of the door, closing the door with the broken music box still in his hand. As soon as he was outside, he instantly noticed Anya acting suspiciously not far off.
Frowning, he walked over and asked, "Why are you still here? Shouldn't you be taking care of Joey?"
Anya started to panic when she saw Lucas walking over to her. Unable to hide, she had no choice but to explain, "Lucas, I was worried you'd blow up at Corinne for breaking the music box, so I decided to stay and—"
Lucas' face darkened. "I won't blow up at her, so stop worrying about other people and go look after Joey!"
Anya frowned. "Why did you come out alone? Where's Corinne?"
"She's tired, so she's resting inside the room for a while. Don't you dare bother her, okay?"
Anya's eyes widened in shock, and she could not keep the emotion out of her voice. "You're letting her rest in Luna's room? I thought you hated nothing more than for other people to touch her stuff!"
Lucas frowned, and after two seconds of silence, he said, "She's Grandpa's savior, so she deserves to get the best hospitality from us. She has the right to rest in any of the rooms."
Lucas' explanation did not seem to convince Anya. 'There's something off about the two of them…' she thought.

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...
