Lilliana was scared witless. She only snapped back to the present when she heard Melinda telling her to call an ambulance.
'Marvin might be downstairs, and that woman is bleeding a lot. Marvin's definitely going to kick me out of the house if he knew I hurt that woman!' thought Lilliana.
At this rate, she thought she might as well be the bad guy until the end.
She brandished the knife in front of her. "Get back! None of you are getting out of this room today!"
Lilliana looked panic-stricken, nonetheless. She knew excessive blood loss would lead to death, but Emily looked fine to her. She would wait until Sherlyn had lured Marvin out before taking Emily to her father's clinic to treat the wound. She was not stupid enough to have Emily's blood on her hand.
Just when she was waiting for Sherlyn to come back after luring Marvin out, she heard a scream coming from downstairs. She could hear the scream as the attic door was open.
'What's going on? Did something happen to Sherlyn?' thought Lilliana.
She became even more anxious when she heard Sherlyn's scream. After thinking over it, she held the knife against Melinda and Lilin, telling them not to come close to her as she slowly backed away, closed the attic door, and locked them inside again before hurrying downstairs to check on Sherlyn.
Only the injured Emily, Melinda, and Lilin were left in the attic.
Lilin continued to cry. "Mommy, what are we going to do? Is Miss Emily going to die?!"
Not wanting to scare the girl, Emily endured the pain and squeezed out a smile at her. "Don't worry, Lilin. I'm okay. We're all going to be okay."
He took a big step and entered the mansion as though it was his home. He looked around the first floor, and when he saw no one, he turned to Sherlyn. "Where's Missus Addison and Miss Lilin?"
Sherlyn was confused. "I have no idea who you are talking about! I don't know you or the people you're looking for! You've got the wrong place!"
After that, Sherlyn tried to close the door to keep the men out.
However, the man with the tie was not going to leave when there was a chance the two people he was supposed to protect were still inside.
He pushed back on the door, causing Sherlyn to fall.

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...
