"Let me walk you out, Jason," said Sunny as he followed Jason out. He seemed like he had something to discuss with him.
After they left, Xante turned to Corinne. "You don't like him, do you, Boss?" she asked softly.
Corinne slowly opened her eyes. "Yeah, no. He's very annoying."
A faint light flashed across Xante's gold-rimmed glasses. "But it seems like he has a crush on you."
Corinne was not surprised. She sat up and said listlessly, "He's up to no good, that's what he is."
Xante raised her eyebrow. "Not everyone who likes you is up to no good, you know?"
Corinne scoffed lightly. "No one in their right mind would confess their feelings to a married woman, let alone the wife of his good friend. Do you know he and Jeremy go way back? Tell me, then—what good can he be up to by liking me?"
Xante actually nodded. After all, men were the same everywhere. Every one of them would have some sort of unspeakable fetish.
At that moment, Annie walked in with her head hung low. She sat on the sofa listlessly without saying a word.
Corinne immediately noticed something was wrong. "What's wrong?" she asked with a frown.
Annie shook her head, and despite her best effort to steady her voice, she said tearfully, "It's nothing. Are you hungry? Should I go get something for you to eat?"
Corinne could tell Annie was crying before, causing her frown to become even deeper. "What happened? Did Aaron do or say something to you?"
Annie's shoulders tensed at the mention of Aaron's name. She then quickly shook her head. "No, Mister Aaron didn't do or say anything to me. He already left with his girlfriend to go to the hotel."

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...
