Jeremy had no idea why Corinne would address him by his full name, so he asked seriously, "What's the matter?"
Corinne looked into his eyes. "Are you hiding anything from me?"
Jeremy's expression stifled for a moment before it fell back to normal. He held her face between his hands and asked, "Why would you ask me that?"
Corinne did not dodge his hands nor did she react. She simply stared at him. "I had a dream where you lied to me about everything. I want to make sure you aren't hiding anything from me right now. Well, are you?"
Jeremy remembered how scared Corinne looked when she woke up from her nightmare last night. He sighed helplessly and said, "So you're still angry at me for what happened in your nightmare last night? It wasn't real, so don't think too much about it."
"Jeremy Holden, answer my question. Are you, or are you not hiding anything from me?" Corinne asked emotionlessly. "I promise I won't get mad if you come clean to me now, but if you don't and I find out about it in the future… Well, you can kiss this relationship goodbye!"
Jeremy was confused as to why she acted like that. He narrowed his eyes and said, "I'm not hiding anything from you."
Corinne raised her eyebrow. "Are you sure?"
Two seconds of silence ensued before he nodded and said, "Yes."
Corinne scrutinized him silently.
Jeremy moved his hand from her cheek to her chin. He gave it a light squeeze before leaning in for a kiss.
Corinne turned her head away. "Mister, your grandparents came home today, so you better behave."
Not getting what he wanted, Jeremy frowned. He then rested his chin on her forehead. "So we're doing the not-kissing thing again, huh? I knew you went to Rivera Group to visit your brother today… My question is, why didn't you drop by my office for a visit, too?"
Corinne was a little taken aback, but her surprise did not last long. 'Of course he'd know. We're in New Capital City after all. Nothing ever gets past him on his turf.'

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...
