Jeremy would never call Lucas under normal circumstances. The only connection Lucas had with Jeremy was Corinne.
'Did something happen to Corinne?' fretted Lucas. He answered the phone right away.
After listening to what Jeremy had to say to him, Lucas's pupils shrank, and he said firmly, "Understood. I'll be at home today."
When the call was over, Lucas closed his laptop and said to the driver, "Make a U-turn and send me back home."
The driver was a little startled to hear that. He thought he had misheard Lucas, thus he repeated, "Does that mean you're not going to the company today?"
"Yes. Turn the car around and bring me back home."
"Understood."
Lucas ran into Jeremy when he arrived back home. The latter had just dropped Corinne off.
When Lucas saw Jeremy's car, he told the driver to stop at the gate so he could open the door and get off. He immediately walked toward Corinne.
Jeremy had just gotten out of the car with Corinne too. He tucked a lock of hair behind her ear and leaned in to whisper something to her.
Then, he straightened his posture and looked at Lucas, who had just arrived. With a serious expression, he said to Lucas, "Take care of her on my behalf."
Lucas nodded. "I'll take care of her even if you didn't tell me to."
Jeremy said nothing else. He patted Corinne's head and said, "Call me if you need anything."

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...
