Annie blushed and said, "What are you doing? Miss Xante and Corinne are looking at us. Let me go now. Behave yourself!"
Aaron laughed. "It's okay. They're not outsiders. Have you picked out a wedding dress? Can I see you wearing it?"
Annie tried to remove his hands from her. "Stop it right now…"
Xante glanced sideways at Aaron. She was used to his antics. Thus, she turned to talk to Corinne.
Aaron became even more shameless. "See. Xante knows not to be a third-wheel."
Annie was beyond mad. "If I had known you were going to be like this, I wouldn't have let you come!"
…
Corinne ignored the young couple's lovey-dovey act. Instead, she discussed with Xante about recent happenings in Adam's company. After a while, her phone rang.
She took out her phone and saw the call was from an unknown number. She would not typically answer a call from an unknown number, but at that moment, she was worried Jeremy had used someone else's number to call her. Thus, she answered the call.
What she heard at the other end of the line was not a man's voice but a little girl's voice she was familiar with.
"Is this Miss Corinne?"
Corinne frowned, and after putting a face to the voice, she finally said, "Yes. It's me."
"Miss Corinne, do you remember me? I'm Lilin, the daughter of the woman you saved before. We met each other at the restaurant that day, too…"
"Um… It's not convenient to talk on the phone about it. Just let me know when we can meet. You can choose the place."
Corinne thought over it with a frown on her face. "Fine. I'll text you the time and place later."
"Yay! See you later then, Miss Corinne," exclaimed Lilin happily.
The puzzled frown never left Corinne's face even after she hung up the phone.
Xante could tell something was amiss, so she asked her, "Boss, who was it?"
Corinne snapped out of her thoughts and looked into Xante's eyes. "It was Adam's younger daughter, Lilin."

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...
