Lucas did not like Jeremy either, but he wanted to get back at him for ruining his time with Corinne. He thus spread his arm widely and said, "Thanks for the piggyback, brother-in-law!"
The title 'brother-in-law' unsettled Jeremy. He felt happy, but he was annoyed as well. In the end, he did not give Lucas a piggyback because he could not accept having another man lying on his back, but he had to find a way to make Corinne happy at the same time.
Thus, he walked up to Lucas and scooped him up into his strong arms. He then carried him into the car as passersby watched on. A handsome man carrying another equally handsome man in his arms was really a sight to behold!
All the eyes of the nurses manning the reception counter lit up, and they quickly covered their mouths to stop themselves from screaming like fangirls. All the other hospital-goers snuck glances at Jeremy and Lucas, wondering what their relationship was.
Only Lucas was unhappy about the situation; he had never been carried by a man like this before. He felt humiliated and worried someone would recognize him. However, he could not jump down, so he glared at Jeremy before burying his face into his chest to avoid being identified.
However, this act only made passersby think he was being shy, which made the others more sure he and Jeremy were a couple. Seeing this, Corinne was nonplussed. She did not know whether she should follow closely behind them.
Finally, the three of them came to the parking lot where there were fewer people. Jeremy put Lucas in the back seat and closed the door roughly. He then smoothed out the creases on his clothes with annoyance before walking over to the passenger seat side.
After opening the door, he turned around to look at Corinne. "Get in, little rascal."
Corinne quickly got in the car and let Jeremy put on the seatbelt for her as usual. He then got into the driver's seat, put on his seat belt, started the engine, and drove out of the parking lot.
Not long after they left the hospital, Lucas took note of the direction they were going in. "Don't send me home."
Jeremy was so focused on driving that he did not hear what Lucas said. Corinne, however, turned to ask Lucas, "Where do you want to go, then? Don't tell me you're going back to work in that condition."

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...
