"Hey, what are you doing?!" said Corinne. It felt really ticklish for Jeremy to be rubbing his face against her neck.
Jeremy straightened himself and rested his chin on her head.
"What do you think I'm doing?" he asked in a breathy tone.
Their noses were so close together, and it looked like he was about to kiss her again when Corinne quickly put a finger to his lips.
"No," she said sternly with a frown.
"Why not?" asked Jeremy pitifully.
Corinne glared at him. "Do you really think now's the time to be doing this? Let me go. I have a lot of questions to ask you."
Jeremy reluctantly let her go. "I'm not going anywhere. Can it wait?"
Jeremy's reasoning nearly made Corinne cave in, but she mustered all of her willpower to stay rational.
"No! I'm not going anywhere either, so we can have se…"
She was too shy to finish the sentence. In fact, her face had turned beet red by then.
Jeremy laughed and rested his cheek against hers. "Yes? Go on. What can we do later?" he asked dotingly.
Corinne used all of her strength to push him away. "Nothing! Behave yourself!"
Finally, Jeremy let her go but not physically. He was willing to push his agenda aside, but not her body.
He picked her up, sat down on the office chair, and placed her on his lap.
Meanwhile, back in the hotel, Sophia had just woken up. After crashing Annie's wedding the previous day, she went to drink at a bar.
She rarely drank when Jeremy was around as he did not like her drinking. He would always give her the silent treatment and actively avoid her whenever he caught her drinking. Thus, not wanting him to hate her, she stayed off alcohol.
She felt so much more at ease after sending Zachary back to Molomia. At least, in the short term, she did not have to worry about Corinne stealing Jeremy from her.
Her mansion in Molomia was heavily guarded. Even if Corinne went there, she would never be able to step foot inside, let alone take Jeremy away.
Sophia should feel happy and relaxed because she won, but for some reason, she felt a tightness in her chest. Thus, she went to the bar and drank copious amounts of alcohol.
She used to be a party girl in the past. She had a lot of friends and would often go clubbing until the early morning with them.
However, she stopped going out with her friends after she abducted Jeremy; she feared he would be gone if she went out for a long time. Gradually, her old friends stopped contacting her.

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...
