Francine asked, "Do you suspect her husband might be..."
Corinne had her suspicions, but she dismissed them as thoroughly illogical. It could not have been Jeremy. Even if Sophia detained Jeremy and eluded their pursuit, he would never be willing to be with—and father a child to—such a despicable woman.
"Forget it. I don't even know why I have this suspicion," said Corinne. "She said that her husband's surname is Finnix. We're probably overthinking it."
Corinne was as yet unaware that she had given birth to triplets. Everyone was afraid that the revelation would upset her, so they all agreed not to mention it to her. Francine was one of those who were in the know, and her first instinct was to suspect that Sophia's child was, in fact, Corinne's.
Francine gritted her teeth warily. "I'm going to find out who her husband is."
Corinne did not pay too much attention to Francine's reaction and sipped her juice with a straw. She contemplated the situation, firmly believing Jeremy's character was strong enough that he would not willingly stay with Sophia, let alone be controlled by her and father her children. That being said, the reason for Sophia's return to the country needed further investigation.
After finishing their meal with the kids, Francine stayed behind and said that she was going to a friend's house for a while. She said that she would take a taxi to her destination. Corinne reminded her not to be out too late and brought her three children back.
Francine headed straight to Newmoon Group.
The long-forgotten name Sophia startled Xante, who raised an eyebrow and asked, "How did she react upon seeing Sophia? What has Sophia done to my boss?"
Francine shook her head. "She hasn't done anything. At least, not yet. Corinne told me that Sophia was holding a child in her arms. Sophia also claimed to be married, and her husband's last name is Finnix! We've been keeping tabs on Sophia's movements for years, right? Did you find out about that marriage? Who is her husband? When did she have that child?"
Xante frowned. "She has a child? We've had people monitoring her and the Adam Group for so long, but we haven't detected anything unusual yet. Adam is pretty skilled at counter-surveillance as well and frequently brings our men around in circles. Furthermore, Sohpia employed her private jet when traveling, and their family even had their own airport. This makes it very challenging for us to gain access to such a location."

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...
