Sunny pulled out two tissues from the dispenser behind Xante to dry his hands before throwing them into the trash can. He then turned and walked out of the restroom.
It was as if he found her disgusting.
Xante snickered at Sunny's retreating figure, thinking, 'He's behaving like he's a forty-year-old man…'
She turned back around to look at herself in the mirror. 'Has my face really become saggy? Is it really that obvious that I've grown old? But I'm only twenty-six years old this year…'
…
While going back to her seat, Xante passed through the dance floor and saw Sunny dancing the waltz with a girl who looked to be around 20 years old.
'That should be his girlfriend. She's probably from some wealthy family like him as well. Well, they certainly make a good match,' she thought.
"What took you so long? Were you having a secret meeting with a certain someone?" teased Aaron after Xante got back to her seat.
Xante rolled her eyes at him. "As if! I'm leaving the party now. Are you coming with me?"
Aaron raised his eyebrow. "Why are you leaving so soon? It's not like we have anything to do at home. What's the matter? You jealous that your old flame is dancing with another girl right now?"
Xante could not be bothered to argue with him, so she simply said, "I'm planning to visit the boss and the kids while the night is still early."
After that, she picked up her suit jacket and strode out of the room.
Aaron wanted to see Corinne and the kids as well, but he saw Sunny suddenly push away his dance partner and follow Xante out.
Seeing this, Sunny sat back down in his seat with a knowing smile and continued to drink his wine alone.
…
Once outside, Xante got into her chauffeured car and was typing out a text message to Corinne when her driver honked.
"You're welcome."
Xante thought he would sit in the front passenger seat since he acted like he was really repulsed by her moments ago. Thus, she was surprised when he sat next to her in the backseat instead.
The inside of the car with its window closed was like a secret dark room. It would not be surprising if a man and a woman suddenly felt the rush of lust overpowering them.
Thus, it was a good thing the driver was with them and the playing music served to lessen the awkward tension in the air.
"Where do you want to go, Mister Sunny?" asked Xante.
"Anywhere is fine," replied Sunny.
'Anywhere is fine?' thought Xante.

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...
