Corinne narrowed her eyes, which were filled with caution and speculation.
'Looks like I wasn't wrong to think that someone has been secretly spying on me and the kids for the past two days. The balloon seller from this afternoon must be in on it, too,' thought Corinne.
After all, how could someone who was selling something forget important things such as a QR code and his phone? It also did not make sense that he would choose to sell his balloons at a high-end residential area instead of the commercial area, which had more foot traffic.
'Sophia must have her eyes on Bryan and Christine after she found out I gave birth to triplets three years ago,' speculated Corinne. 'I was right not to fly out of the country. I must protect the kids at all costs!'
Corinne looked up at the bright moon hanging in the sky and sighed. She took out her phone and called Lucas.
"Mister Lucas, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to Molomia with you to meet the art teacher," she told him.
"I see. Don't worry, I'll call you to give you an update as soon as I've met with the art teacher," said Lucas.
After she hung up, she suddenly felt unbelievably tired. Thus, she turned and went back to her room.
…
The next day, Lucas took the morning flight to Molomia, where someone was already waiting for him.
…
Back at the hotel.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up. "Oh! How could I forget? I can just call her and ask her to come pick us up!"
He then jumped down from his chair and ran to the landline phone.
"Don't touch that phone!" shouted Jeremy.
Bryan stopped in shock. "Why not? Sophia's not going to know."
"You can kiss seeing your mommy goodbye if she finds out who you've been calling. Listen to me. Don't touch that phone."
Bryan pouted. "Fine…"

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...
