Lucas nodded at the servant standing by, and he immediately brought another chair to the table.
Jeremy sat down, but he then waved his hand at the tableware the servant was bringing to him. He had no intention of eating, but he did not mind waiting for Corinne to finish.
It was obvious the Riveras did not welcome Jeremy due to the bad blood between them. Jeremy, too, did not want to be there, but he had no choice since Corinne was there. Hence, both families decided to be courteous toward each other for Corinne's sake.
Seeing Jeremy waving the servant away, Anya thoughtfully walked over to give him a fork. "Jeremy, why don't you just have a little food? You must be tired from working."
Jeremy glanced at the fork in her hand. "No, thanks."
At that moment, Corinne picked up a fried shrimp and placed it near Jeremy's lips. "Hey, Mister, try this. The chef here really knows his stuff."
Jeremy's eyes softened. He opened his mouth and ate the fried shrimp before patting her head lovingly. "Thank you, but you don't have to do that. Just focus on yourself, and we'll go home after you're done eating."
"Okay," replied Corinne with a nod.
Anya, who was still holding the fork out to Jeremy, stiffened as her expression darkened. Everyone could tell who Jeremy really loved.
In the past, the Riveras fully objected to Anya marrying Jeremy, not only because of the bad blood between the two families but also because they thought Jeremy was not a good man. After all, they had never seen the warm, loving side of him. To them, marrying Jeremy was as good as being a widow.

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...
