After leaving the ward, Corinne and Jeremy walked to the end of the corridor. They glanced out of the window at the small garden for patients to have a stroll and exercise.
Corinne was bored, so she turned around and wrapped her arms lazily around his waist. She buried her face in his chest and rubbed her face shamelessly.
It was not often that she would throw herself into his arms. Jeremy allowed her to do as she pleased, but he was also keenly aware that she was not her usual self.
“Are you in a bad mood?”
Corinne turned her face so it was facing the man’s chest and listened to his strong heartbeat. Men are all buttfaces, aren’t they?”
“What?” Jeremy frowned. There was a difference of nearly 10 years in their age gap, so there might be occasions where he did not fully understand the slang used by young people such as her. Nevertheless, he could tell that the word ‘buttface’ was a derogatory term.
Corinne’s gaze was vapid, and she had a sarcastic smile as she explained, “Just look at Mister Maxwell. He comes from a renowned family, dresses nicely, and speaks in a well-mannered tone, but he cheated on his wife with another woman. Now that he abandoned his wife and married the mistress, he doesn’t care about her anymore! Do all men lose interest in their wives after marriage?”
Jeremy felt that she was testing him, so he said in a deep voice, “Don’t worry. I’m only interested in you.”
His serious confession left Corinne feeling a little weird. She curled his lips and said, “But that’s because you and I haven’t gotten to know each other better yet! You might get bored of me after we’ve been together for a long time!”
Jeremy raised his hand and massaged the back of her head reproachingly. “Haven’t gotten to know each other better? We’ve gotten to know each other inside and out. How much deeper do you want us to know each other?”
The phrase ‘know each other inside and out’ was very suggestive, and Corinne could not help but blush as she rolled her eyes and stared angrily at him. “I’m talking about feelings and our time together! Not… ‘that”!”
Jeremy cocked his eyebrows slightly. “And by ‘that’, you mean…?”
Corinne was so irritated that she removed her arms from him and slammed her fist against him. “I’m not talking to you anymore! You’re being indecent!”

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...
