Jeremy had no idea he had other kids apart from Benjamin since he had been brainwashed by the hypnotherapist Sophia hired.
'Sh*t! If he knew Benjamin wasn't Benjamin but pretended not to know about it in front of me…that means he's beginning to suspect something,' thought Sophia.
Sophia's eyes darkened. She was the type that would rather destroy the very thing she loved if it meant no one else could have it.
…
Corinne placed the still-sleeping Benjamin on the bed and went to the bathroom to take a shower. After that, she changed into some loose clothes.
Benjamin was still sleeping when she came out. She walked over to the window and watched lovingly at Joey and Christine playing in the garden.
It was only after she summoned a servant to watch over Benjamin that she went down to the garden to check on Joey and Christine.
It was not noon yet, but the sun was scorching hot.
Corinne looked helplessly at the two children, who did not seem to mind the sun at all, before walking over to stand under Francine's umbrella.
"Alright, kids! Time to come in. You two are going to get sunburned if you don't stop playing outside now!"
The two children, who were fighting over who got to hold the kite spool, immediately turned to look at Corinne when they heard her voice. They then threw the kite spool to the ground and ran over to her.
"Mommy, you're back!" said Joey while holding her hand happily.
Corinne smiled and nodded. "Yup. Here I am."
Christine wrapped her arms around Corinne's neck and rubbed her nose on it. "Mommy, I love you so much!"
Corinne's heart nearly melted. "Do you love Mommy or the Mommy who buys you gifts?"
"Mommy, of course!" said Corinne with a straight face, "But I love the Mommy who buys me gifts more. Hahahaha!"
Corinne was speechless. 'Oh well, she is my daughter.'
Francine stood looking at them from the side. "Corinne, do you know they were only willing to put down the kite after you're back?" she asked with a pout. "You have no idea how much I tried to coax them to come in, but they completely ignored me! They said they hadn't finished playing. Look at my skin! They're all burnt. The sunscreen I've put on has already worn off!"
Corinne looked up at Francine and said sincerely, "Thanks, Francine. I really appreciate you babysitting them. You should head back in to rest. I can look after them now."

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...
