Chapter 889
Corinne did not think herself special or lucky enough to meet a man who would forever be loyal to her. She just found Jeremy to be different from all the other guys she knew. He made her feel secure, so there might be a chance their relationship would last. ‘Oh well, time tells.’
Today, she found out Jeremy was indeed different from all the other guys she knew, but not in the she thought. He seemed to be tired of a relationship faster than any guy, and being more experienced than her, he even made sure to keep a way out for when he wanted to get out of the relationship.

That night, Corinne – with her back against Jeremy-pretended to be asleep and did not turn around to face him, no matter how much he fondled or hugged her. As the minutes ticked by, she fell asleep and had a depressing dream.
She dreamt she had been pushed into the well, just like when she was a child, and had no strength to climb out of the well. She tried shouting, but no one came. She was overridden by fear, but the only thing she could do was stare up at the opening of the well, hoping for someone to find and rescue her.
A while later, someone did find her, and it was Jeremy!
His face appeared over the opening of the well, looking down at her. She was overjoyed at the prospect of being rescued, so she reached up to him, waiting for him to pull her up, but he remained unmoving and continued to stare at her coldly.
Confused, she shouted out loud for him to save her, but he simply turned around expressionlessly. A minute later, someone else heaved a huge boulder on top of the opening of the well, and this shrouded her in darkness.
No matter how loud or long she shouted for help, no one else came to save her. The air in the well thinned out until she found herself unable to breathe…
Gasp! Corinne’s eyelids flapped wide open, drenched in sweat.
It was also at this moment that she knew the reason for her dream. Jeremy was actually on top of her and kissing her!
The dream put her in a bad mood, so she punched Jeremy to get him to get off her. It was not one of those friendly punches but a true punch that was meant to knock someone out.
Jeremy groaned out of pain and immediately let her go. Panting, he asked, “Why did you hit me so hard? Are you trying to kill your husband?”
‘Husband? Pah! He dares to call himself my husband when we’re not even legally married?’ thought Corinne angrily.
“I told you I don’t want to do it tonight, so why did you ambush me while I’m sleeping?” she asked weakly.
Under the moonlight, Jeremy’s gaze seemed even more beguiling. It was obvious he was riled up from the prospect of getting some intimacy.
‘He would’ve forced himself on me if I hadn’t woken up from the nightmare,’ thought Corinne.
“You kept screaming ‘Mister! Mister!’ just now, so I thought you wanted some,” said Jeremy seductively.
Corinne sat up, turned on the lamp beside her bed, and tried to compose herself.
It was then Jeremy realized she was soaked in sweat, which alerted him. “Hey, what’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?” he asked softly.
“Yeah.”
Jeremy moved closer to hug her. “It’s okay. It was just a dream. I’m here now,” he said while stroking her back lightly.
Corinne remained unmoved. She looked at him coldly. “I dreamt about you.”
This surprised him. “I was in your nightmare?”

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...
