"Yes! Zachary's gone! He didn't go back to Molomia," repeated Sophia tearfully.
Adam thought about what Sophia said with furrowed eyebrows. He then turned and went back to his suite.
Sophia quickly followed him in. "Say something, Dad! Can't you see I'm panicking here?!"
Adam picked up a glass of water and sipped before saying slowly, "What do you want me to say?"
Sophia stomped. "Call the men who are supposed to keep an eye on Zachary now!"
Adam looked at his stubborn daughter before picking up his phone and calling his men. He then put the phone on speaker and put it down on the table again.
All Sophia heard was the automated message saying the number was unreachable before the system operator automatically hung up the call.
All hope disappeared from her eyes. "How… How could this be? Dad, I beg of you. Please help me find Zachary! Please…"
Adam was not surprised that he could not reach his men. It was as if he had expected it. He calmly sipped his water before saying, "Don't you understand? He's planned this all along. It's pointless to find him now."
Sophia wiped away her tears with her arm. "It's not pointless! Dad, you just need to help me find him, and I'll handle the rest!"
Adam slammed his glass down on the table angrily. "Enough! When are you going to wake up?! Everyone can tell he doesn't love you! He won't even let you touch him, so what's the point of keeping him by your side? Just let him go, Sophia!"
Sophia was unwilling to accept the outcome. Even with reality staring straight at her, she still refused to believe it. "No, that's impossible! Zachary doesn't have memories of his past, so why would he go back to his family? No…"
Adam had lost all hope of talking sense into his daughter. "Did you think the hypnotic effect will last forever? He might've gotten back all of his memories and was only pretending when you were around!"
Sophia recalled everything that had happened recently and began to realize her father was right.
"Even… Even if his legs are healed, even if he really recovers his memory, I still have to go find him! I want him to know that I'm the one who loves him most in the world! Not Corinne, but me!" she screamed hysterically.
With that, she got up and ran outside.

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...
