"Can you just go?" roared Corinne with annoyance.
Jason stared her down fearlessly with a smile. "I can do that, but you're coming with me too! Or have you forgotten that we've made plans to go to Serenity Bay to talk about work after your meeting? Let's go!"
Corinne did not want to go with him. She waved her hands and said, "No, we don't need to go there. Build your art gallery for all I care. Just make sure it doesn't take up more than one-fifth of the land!"
She was not stupid enough to be in a confined space with a man who could violate her at any time.
Jason was not going to give up when he had spent all that time waiting for her. "Corinne, are you really going to ditch me now? You said you'd go with me if I waited for you!"
"I said you can build the gallery, so why are you still upset? Or is it because you secretly want me to go against your idea after we've been to Serenity Bay?"
"I want you to go with me because I want you to see how bold and creative my idea is! Who knows, you might even fall in love with me then. Corinne, I'm very confident about my idea—so confident that I know you're not going to reject it!"
Corinne's lips twitched. "Well, I'm not rejecting it now! Please leave. That's all I'm going to say about the matter."
Seeing Corinne turned away by him, Jason stopped buttoning his shirt. "Corinne, what you're doing now is just forcing me to run outside half-naked. You can probably tell I'm quite shameless. So if you don't go with me to Serenity Bay, I'm going to go out with my clothes all a mess and say you molested me!"
Corinne was speechless, and she could feel a headache coming.
Jason was about to push the door open when Corinne grabbed his hand. "Fine, I'll go with you," she said defeatedly, hoping this way it would stop Jason from doing something crazy.
"That's more like it! You're going to feel so much better once we take a walk around Serenity Bay," said Jason. He then quickly buttoned his shirt and draped his suit jacket at the crook of his arm. "Let's go!"
Corinne sighed helplessly. "Wait a minute. I need to tell my secretary I'm heading out."
Corinne glanced at him. "How do you know they're two-faced? Maybe they're serious about you."
Jason crossed his arm. "Who cares if they're really serious about me? The woman I like is you, not them!"
Corinne's eyes dimmed. It was so obvious she held his actions in high chagrin. "But I don't like you!"
"The more you say what's on your mind, the more I like you!" said Jason with a smile.
Corinne's lips twitched. She decided to keep her mouth shut. Otherwise, with Jason's skill for the gab, there would be no end to their bickering!
The two of them walked out of the elevator. Jason was about to go to his car when Corinne stopped him.

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...
