"I have to go back to my friends' wedding since I left my kids there," explained Corinne.
Melinda felt relieved when she heard that. "Alright, go ahead. I'll call you once Emily and I arrive at the new hospital."
"Thanks!" Corinne nodded and gently patted Lilin's head before leaving.
Unbeknownst to her, Sunny had been secretly observing her from a hidden corner.
However, Corinne did not immediately head back to the wedding after leaving the hospital. Instead, she drove to the Carews' residence, a place she had not visited in years.
Meanwhile, the Carews were in chaos.
As soon as he got back from the hospital, Marvin wasted no time in confronting Lilliana and Sherlyn. "How could you stab someone with a knife?! Do you even realize who you've hurt? You've stirred up trouble with a bigwig, and I'm getting dragged into this mess, too!"
Lilliana and Sherlyn were in tears as they knelt on the floor.
Sherlyn tried to explain through her tears, "Dad! Mom and I didn't mean for this to happen... We thought they were trying to seduce you!"
"She's right, Marvin! It's because I care about you too much and was afraid that someone else would take you that I acted without thinking! Look, they've already punished us! Can't we just let this whole thing go?" begged Lilliana in a trembling voice.
Marvin scoffed. "You say you care about me? Come on, we all know you're more interested in the properties I own, Lilliana! Let me be clear: I've seen through your reasons for being with me over these years! You've even taught our daughter all of your scheming ways!"
"Dad, how can you say that about me? I'm your daughter!" cried Sherlyn pitifully.
Marvin's face was marked with injuries, and his body also bore the signs of numerous bruises. Every movement was a struggle, and sitting down also brought him unimaginable pain.
Marvin was visibly frightened when he saw Corinne. "What… What are you doing here?" he stammered.
Corinne smirked. "What's the matter? Aren't you going to invite me in?"
After checking around and making sure Corinne had come alone, Marvin opened the door a bit wider. "Come… Come in."
Corinne walked in with her arms crossed and saw the battered Lilliana and Sherlyn on their knees.
Sherlyn gritted her teeth with hatred upon seeing Corinne's return. "What are you doing back here? Are you here to enjoy our misery, you little b*tch?"
Lilliana, too, glared at Corinne. "You really know how to pick the time to come back huh? Only a fool would believe you didn't come back to laugh at our misery!"

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...
