Chapter 864
“Lucas! Lucas…!”
Anya collapsed onto the floor and kept crying. ‘Sh*t! Sh*t! Sh*t! It’s all over for me!’
The ‘good girl’ image she so painstakingly built over the years was destroyed in an instant by Corinne. She was out of ideas as even Lucas turned his back on her, too!
Phoebe started to panic when she saw her daughter, who everyone used to pamper, was rebuked by everyone. Her heart broke when she saw how hard Lucas slapped Anya.
She looked unhappily at Maxwell. “Say something, Maxwell! Didn’t you just see how Lucas slapped Anya? As their father, shouldn’t you do something about it?!!
Maxwell sat there calmly. His face had lost its youthfulness, but in return, he looked like he gained a certain acceptance of life.
“The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. This is all karma, so you have no one else to blame but yourself.”
Phoebe’s face paled. “Maxwell! How can you talk like this about me and Anya? Haven’t I always given the best to your family? What have I done for you to treat me so harshly?”
Maxwell did not want to waste his breath on her anymore. He looked down to compose himself. ‘Is it just me, or does Corinne really look like Emily?’
Phoebe could not contain her outburst anymore. “I’m talking to you, Maxwell! Why won’t you even look at me? Why do you always treat me like I don’t exist? Even if you don’t like me, you should at least be a good father to Anya!”
Anya had lost all of Lucas’ trust and love, so she was hoping her father would at least speak up for her.
“Dad! Don’t tell me you don’t believe me too. You mustn’t believe Corinne. That evil woman planned all of this…”
“That’s enough!” shouted Sunny, who was leaning weakly against the headboard. He had never taken that tone or attitude with Phoebe or Anya before.

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...
