Seeing this, Corinne quickly helped Pamela up. She propped up her pillow behind her so it would be more comfortable for her to lean against the headrest.
After settling herself, Pamela patted Corinne's hand. "Corinne, why didn't you tell me you were pregnant? I would've still been kept in the dark about it if it weren't for what happened today."
Corinne smiled and explained, "I didn't mean to keep it a secret from you. I just didn't want you to worry about me and…stopping me from doing all sorts of things to keep the baby safe."
Pamela frowned. "We're family. How can I not worry about you and the baby? You're both equally important to me! Look what happens when I'm not there to stop you from doing things! You got hit by a car, for god's sake! Fortunately, you're still alive. I don't think I can handle losing you and the baby."
Corinne nodded docilely. "Okay, I promise you I'll listen to everything you say from now on."
A smile finally appeared on Pamela's face. 'Thank god both she and the baby are okay!' she thought and made a mental note to herself to arrange for more security to protect Corinne.
Greg was relieved to see Pamela getting better, but he could not help but grumble to Francine, "Your grandmother only has eyes for her granddaughter-in-law now…"
Francine actually found her grandfather's jealousy hilarious, which was a testament to how far she had come to change her opinion of Corinne. If this had happened before, she would be angry over the fact Pamela seemed to favor Corinne above anyone else.
After spending some time with Corinne and getting to know Anya's true colors, all the prejudice she held toward Corinne vanished. In fact, she quite liked the lively and harmonious atmosphere in the room.
'I'm going to be an aunt soon! Yay!' she thought happily. Suddenly, she realized one person was missing from the scene. 'Huh? Where's Jeremy?' She looked around the ward but saw no signs of him.
At that moment, Corinne was cajoling Pamela to eat a few bites of oatmeal when Francine tugged at her sleeves.
"Corinne, can you come over here for a sec?"

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...
