Corinne's cheeks felt warm when he called her his 'wife'. She immediately sat up and said, "I didn't take a shower last night, so please excuse me while I freshen up."
Jeremy chuckled as he watched her dash into the bathroom and lock the door. He got up and changed his clothes, too.
After Corinne came out of the shower, Jeremy went in and freshened up as well. The two of them then left the bedroom and went downstairs for breakfast.
However, Jeremy was not too happy when he saw an outsider in the dining hall.
When Pamela saw her grandson and granddaughter-in-law, she beckoned with a smile. "Jeremy, Corinne, you two should sit and have some breakfast. I made some delicious oats today! Taste it and see if it's to your liking."
Corinne smiled obediently. "Thank you, Grandma."
She then looked politely at Greg and said, "Good morning, Grandpa."
Greg was still unhappy over the previous day's incident and let out a disgruntled grunt.
Corinne did not take offense. She was about to sit when she realized that Jeremy did not take a seat beside her.
She turned to look at him. As it turned out, he was staring unhappily at Chester, who sat diagonally opposite Francine.
Pamela noticed Jeremy's odd reaction and introduced Chester to him. "This is Francine's tutor. He'll be helping her with her studies. He came a little early today, so I told him to join us for some breakfast!"
Chester stood up politely, looked at Corinne, and said, "Good morning, Corinne."
Corinne reciprocated with a smile. "Good morning."
Meanwhile, Jeremy was glancing at Chester with some animosity. When Chester made eye contact with him, there seemed to be a subtle exchange of hostility between them.

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...
