Corinne stroked Jeremy's chin with her thumb. "Now you make people want to bully you until you cry."
Jeremy stared straight into Corinne's twinkling eyes. "So you're here to take revenge on me?"
Corinne frowned and let go of his chin. "You're thinking too much! I've come to see my son."
Jeremy knew Corinne was teasing him, so he thought nothing of it. "He's playing in the living room. Sophia's not here, so you can meet him."
Corinne shrugged and said, "I know. That's why I came."
Jeremy had guessed that Corinne must have received news of Sophia's outing, so she chose to come at that time.
"Well then, you should go see him now. I'm going back to my rehabilitation exercises, so you can show yourself in," said Jeremy.
Corinne looked at him with disapproval. "You almost fell down, and you still want to practice here?"
"This is the most suitable place. Don't worry about me. I'll be careful."
Corinne frowned and scoffed. She was about to say something but stopped herself. She then went into the bedroom and to the living room to look for Bryan.
Bryan was playing happily with his favorite robot toy alone in the living room. Even he had to admit he was really happy and relaxed there since he could play with the toys as he pleased.
Although he was happy at home as well, Corinne would usually limit his playing time. Once the time was up, she would ask the servants to put away his toys.
"Oh, so you still know I'm your Mommy. I thought you were having so much fun here that you didn't want to go back home anymore."
Bryan pouted. "Mommy, I missed you so much! And I do want to go home, but… I can't…"
Seeing he was about to cry, Corinne finally pinched his cheek and said, "I thought you didn't want me anymore 'cause you got yourself a new mother."
Bryan shook his head repeatedly. "No! I never called that woman Mommy. I don't like that woman! I spent all my time with handsome Daddy, not Sophia! You can go ask handsome Daddy if you don't believe me!"
'Daddy?' Corinne was stunned for a moment before she realized Bryan was referring to Jeremy.
The word 'handsome' was not wrong. Even though Jeremy was wheelchair-bound, he was still one of the rare handsome men in the world!

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...
