"Oh, dear..." Simona exclaimed, noticing the slap mark on Sadie's face. "What happened to you? Did someone slap you? Why haven't you tended to yourself?"
Simona hated seeing someone else injured, and it was in her instinct to reach out and check Sadie's face. Sadie, however, was unaware of Simona's true identity and recoiled impatiently.
"Don't touch me," Sadie snapped.
Sherman then stopped Simona and said, "You should head home and rest, Mom. Don't worry so much over this whole thing."
Upon learning of Simona's identity, Sadie's demeanor changed, and her eyes lit up. She greeted her amiably. "Hi there, Auntie. I'm glad I came here while you're still around. There are some things I wish to discuss with Sherman today."
Simona became curious. "And what might that be?" The sense of familiarity that Sadie seemed to show toward Sherman surprised her, as she had no idea her son had such a close acquaintance.
Then, Sadie continued, "This revelation should be more than enough for you to see her for who she really is! You won't be happy with her! I refuse to witness you trapped in a marriage! Don't ruin your life by marrying her!"
Sherman glanced at his mother in surprise. He had never heard her speak with such gravity to another person before, so it seemed quite clear that she was repulsed by Sadie's actions.

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...
