Corinne paid no mind to what Jason said. She continued eating as though nothing happened.
Jason was not really eating by then. He rested his cheek on his hand and gazed at her seductively until she finished eating.
"I see you're not a picky eater at all, Corinne. The food here isn't really that great, don't you think?"
"You can't expect a homestay restaurant to taste like a three-star Michelin restaurant, can you?" replied Corinne indifferently.
"I'm just giving my objective opinion. The food is really not that great. How about I bring you to an authentic farm-to-table restaurant tomorrow? You'll know what I say is true then."
"Thanks, but no thanks," said Corinne disinterestedly. "We won't be interrupting your holiday now, Mister Jason. Tommy, go pay the bill."
Tommy nodded and went to the counter to pay the bill. However, not only did the waiter refuse to take his money, but he handed over some change to him. "Mister Jason has paid for the food. This is the change."
Tommy frowned. He first looked at Jason before turning to Corinne with a questioning look. 'What should I do now?'
Corinne heard what the waiter said. She gave Jason a side-eye before getting up and saying, "Thanks for the meal. I'll let Jeremy know so he can buy you a meal when he's back."
After that, she and Tommy left the homestay. She knew it would be a waste of time to offer to give the money back to Jason since he would never accept it, so she might as well let Jeremy handle it when he came back.
Once they were outside of the homestay, Corinne immediately smelled clean mountain air. She looked toward the horizon, which quickly brought to mind her childhood.
She had come here before with Mother Cathrina to collect mountain herbs. Together, they walked past this very homestay many times before.

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...
