Aaron immediately shook his head. "Okay, okay. I'll stop."
"Sit over there." Annie frowned and pointed to the seat opposite her.
Aaron nodded. "I'll do as you say." He then stood up and took his seat across from her. Unfortunately, Annie felt even more uncomfortable as he was able to make direct eye contact with her.
"So, why are you here?" Annie asked, trying to shift the conversation.
Aaron looked at her with a smile. "I heard you were having a blind date here, so I came to check on things."
Annie frowned. "Who told you that? That blabbermouth is going to get it from me!"
Aaron did not reveal that Sunny was the one who gave him that information. After all, he was a man of some principles despite his usual nonchalant attitude. "I have my ways."
Annie blushed and frowned upon hearing that. "Ugh, don't give me that bull! You're just here because you're interested in every woman's business!"
"Easy there!" Aaron raised his hands helplessly. "I'm not that kind of person!"
Aaron raised an eyebrow. "That's not it. I'm shocked that a person of his social status would have that attitude toward Jeremy's niece!"
Annie finally understood what he meant. She laughed at herself and shrugged it off. "The whole world knows I'm Jeremy's niece. I used to enjoy some sort of protection because of him, but this is how everything works since he's missing. My family isn't that close to his family anyway, so it is what it is."
Aaron narrowed his eyes. "Is your family going through a tough time as well?"
Annie did not want to admit it, but she also did not want to cover it up with a lie.

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...
