"But it's not like they'd hastily throw together a wedding announcement. It feels more like they're just trying to fulfill a task. And who knows if they even had a wedding? Maybe you'll still be the one standing beside Sherman in a wedding gown someday, so you need to pull yourself together."
Claire immediately stopped crying when she heard that. She wiped away the tears on her cheeks and nodded. "You're right. I can't afford to be so despondent. At the very least, I need to find out his current situation."
Seeing that Claire had calmed down, Serena stopped holding her back. "Alright, make it fast. Remember to leave through the underground parking lot to avoid the paparazzi. They're waiting to see you make a fool of yourself, so it's best to avoid exposure for now."
However, Claire smiled brightly. "That's exactly what I want. I want everyone to know how heartbroken I am, to let Sherman see how much I care for him. Serena, this exposure was handed to me on a silver platter, so I might as well not let it go to waste."
Serena still felt concerned. After all, Claire was a dancer, and exposing too much of her emotions in public was not a good idea. Ultimately, she could not control her.
As expected, Claire was surrounded by dozens of paparazzi as soon as she appeared. She wore oversized sunglasses that covered most of her face, but her red nose could not be hidden. Within half an hour, news of her heartbreak had already topped the online trending list, and everyone was talking about it.
[Told you guys. The Parr family would never consider such a small-time dancer. It was her scheming that got Sherman last time, but alas, her scheming this time failed to get Sherman to marry her.]
[Yeah well, it's not like Sherman is marrying you either! Honestly, you keyboard warriors are too righteous for your own good. Maybe she was just crying from a sad movie. You guys speculate so much. Aren't you afraid of being sued for defamation?]
Meanwhile, Sherman had not noticed the online commotion. He was in his office, handling his usual business, just like every other day.
It felt strange. Despite the unresolved issues between him and Rita, a simple document had now tied them together. After their marriage, Vince seemed to have somewhat settled down.

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...
