Lilin tilted her head. "I think Miss Corinne is a very resilient woman, so she'll be fine with the news. What I'm worried about is that she and Miss Emily may end up disappointed if it turns out she's not her long-lost daughter."
Melinda took a sip of her coffee and stayed silent. She was almost a hundred percent sure that Corinne was Emily's long-lost daughter, Luna. Not only did Corinne look like Emily when she was little, but they shared the same behavior and air.
Speaking of which, Corinne's brows and eyes looked more like Maxwell's, but the expressions she made with them were more like Emily's when she was little. It could not be possible that Corinne could share so many similarities with Maxwell and Emily and not be their daughter.
Corinne was definitely Luna, and all Melinda had to think about was how to break the news. After all, it was not every day she had to reveal news like this to someone. She was still trying to form the sentences in her head when she saw Corinne walking into the coffee house.
Corinne was walking at a leisurely pace and looked relaxed. She looked around before walking over to Melinda and Lilin's table. Once there, she pulled out a chair and sat.
"Hello, Missus Addison. Nice to meet you again," she said politely, albeit a little distantly.
Melinda knew Corinne was being careful because they were Adam's wife and daughter.
Lilin's eyes immediately lit up when she saw Corinne as though the woman was a goddess. "Miss Corinne, you're finally here! We've been waiting a long time for you!"
Corinne smiled at the little girl before looking at her watch. "But it's not our meeting time yet, so I'm not late."
"Miss Corinne, you lost your mother when you were little, right? And you've been looking for her since then but always came up empty-handed?" chimed in Lilin.
Gone was Corinne's relaxed expression. In return, a frown appeared on her face. She looked at Lilin sharply, and then at Melinda.
"Missus Addison, did you look into my past?"
Flustered, Melinda quickly waved her hands. "No, no. Don't get us wrong, Corinne. We didn't look into your past, nor do I have the resources to do that. Even though I'm married to Adam, Lilin and I have never gotten ourselves involved with what he and Sophia did. Please don't overthink this. We have no ill intention toward you."

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...
