Meanwhile, back in the Holdens' estate.
Jeremy and Corinne had a long talk in the study, and she was able to ask him everything she wanted.
She wanted to get up from his lap, but he kept his arms tightly wrapped around her. He then leaned in for a kiss.
Corinne turned her face away and poked his chest. "You better take a shower first."
Jeremy narrowed his eyes. "You want me to take a shower? Why? What are you planning to do to me?"
Speechless, Corinne rolled her eyes at him. "I can ask you the same thing! I asked you to take a shower because I don't like another woman's smell on you!"
Jeremy dropped his head down and said in mock sadness, "I'm very clean. Even though I've forgotten you for a while, I never did anything with Sophia. You'll never find her scent on me…"
Corinne frowned. "I'm talking about the smell of softener on your clothes! I don't like it 'cause it reminds me that she did your laundry!"
Taken aback Jeremy looked down at his own clothes. Indeed, Sophia was the one who bought them and was also the one who washed them. He had been in so much of a rush for the past two days that he did not have the time to change into a new set of clothes.
In the end, he let her go and said, "Okay. I'll take a shower now and throw out all these clothes. From now on, I'll only wear the clothes you get for me."
Corinne might look visibly annoyed, but deep down, she felt somewhat bitter. She pouted and said, "Go now! Grandpa and Grandma must be over the moon to see you. We still need to have a reunion dinner tonight."
Jeremy nodded obediently. "Yes, dear."
…
Corinne went downstairs to look for Bowen. After she found him, she gave him some instructions.
Bowen immediately nodded and did as he was asked.
As Corinne then walked toward the kitchen, someone suddenly broke through the door, causing a huge commotion. The intruder jumped on Corinne, startling her.
Since she was feeling a little hypoxic, she almost fell down while a deep sense of helplessness washed over 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...
