Phoebe and Anya were shocked by Sunny yelling at them.
Maxwell simply got up calmly and picked up his jacket that hung from the back of the chair. "Get well soon, Sunny. Press the call button if you need anything, and a nurse will come for you."
He then walked toward the door, and on his way there, he said to Phoebe, "You should let your son rest if you want him to get better."
He was out of the door by the time he said the last word.
Phoebe frowned. With Anya having lost Lucas' trust, Sunny was Phoebe's only hope to stay in the family. Thus, she dared not provoke Sunny anymore, and she quickly dragged Anya out with her.
Maxwell was nowhere to be found once the two of them got out of the room. Instead, they saw the bodyguards Lucas arranged to stand guard by Sunny's door.
A wave of exhaustion washed over Anya as she finally calmed down. She slumped down on the chair and said anxiously, "What should we do now? Even Lucas doesn't believe me anymore! And I'm pretty sure Jeremy won't want to see me again…not after he found out I wasn't the girl who saved him."
Phoebe did not know what to do either; her mind was all over the place. 'That Corinne had certainly bested us…'
"I'm lost too, Anya. It'll be awkward for the two of us from now on. Your grandparents had never liked me… Think of how they'll punish me once they find out about the pomegranate juice."

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...
