Christine leaned into Corinne's arms, raised her face, and said irritatedly, "Mommy, we're eating out again today? Great-grandma is going to be sad!"
Corinne understood what her daughter meant. Pamela would personally supervise the kitchen staff to prepare exquisite dinners for them every day. What she looked forward to most was for them to go back and have dinner together as a family.
Corinne gently patted Christine's head and said, "It's okay. You can eat less, so that you'll still have room in the stomach to eat with Great-grandma."
"But I heard Mommy ordering lots of my favorite dishes just now…" said Christine pitifully.
Corinne did not know whether to laugh or cry when she heard that. "Oh, no. I guess you have to decide for yourself, then."
Christine frowned as she struggled with her dilemma. 'I won't be able to eat with Great-grandma if I ate too much here… Not to mention, I'm trying to maintain my figure…'
In the end, she decided she would only take one bite of each of the dishes.
Benjamin sat next to Corinne. Although he felt a little more relaxed than before, he still preferred to keep quiet, especially when there were other people.
Between Xante and Sunny was Joey in his highchair, which made Sunny feel a little peeved. As much as he liked Joey, he would have preferred to sit next to Xante.
Thus, he cleared his throat and said, "Ahem! Xante, Joey said he wants to sit next to Corinne. Why don't you swap places with him?"
Joey's eyes widened in confusion. 'When did I ever say that? Why is Uncle Sunny lying?'
Xante was texting Aaron the location of the restaurant when Sunny said that. She turned her head to look at him, then at Joey. She immediately understood what was happening when she saw the look of confusion on Joey's face.
Xante's lips twitched. She started to think he was being immature again, like a brat who would stick out his tongue when the teacher's back was turned.
However, she was too lazy to fight against him anymore. It was a waste of her time, so she simply let him hold her hand and continued to scroll through her phone with her other hand.
Corinne did not notice what happened between the two of them. She was simply too focused on her three kids, but Jason did notice.
He smiled, sighed, and said, "I'm so jealous!"
Corinne raised an eyebrow and glanced at him. "What made you say that so suddenly?"
Jason looked at Xante and Sunny. "Oh, it's nothing. I'm just jealous of a certain loving young couple here."

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...
