Chapter 872
Corinne came out of the kitchen and placed the bowl of noodles in front of Jeremy, who was sitting at the dining table and scrolling through his phone.
He immediately put down his phone when he saw the steaming bowl of noodles with a boiled egg in front of him. He turned to her and said, “That was fast.”
Corinne untied her apron, pulled out the chair beside him, and sat. “It would’ve been faster if you didn’t get in my way just now. Eat up while it’s still hot.”
Jeremy smiled faintly, picked up his fork, and took a bite. “Not bad! But you don’t have to cook for me anymore. We have servants for that, y’know.”
Corinne raised her eyebrow. “Is this your way of telling me my cooking is awful?”
Jeremy pinched her cheek. “You little rascal. Is that how you see me? I was just worried that you’ll tire yourself out.”
Corinne’s face was all bent out of shape with all the pinching Jeremy was doing. She pouted and said, “It’s just a bowl of noodles. How tiring can it be?”
“You’re pregnant right now, so it’s best to not do anything. In fact, you should just stay in bed and rest,” lectured Jeremy sternly.
Corinne put both of her elbows on the table and rested her face on her hands as she looked at Jeremy eating. “Mister, do you want to be a dad?”
“Maybe.”
“What do you mean maybe? It’s either yes or no. So which is it?”
Jeremy had always been a fast eater, so he finished the bowl of noodles in no time. He put down his fork and took a sip of water before answering, “I do want to be the father of our child, but I’ll have to share you with our child when he’s born. And I don’t want to share you with anyone for the time being-not even our child.”
Corinne was a little stunned to hear him say that, and she broke out in laughter. “Hahaha! Why, you’re still just a kid inside! I can’t believe you’re jealous of our unborn child.”
Jeremy gulped down half a glass, put down the glass, and raised his head to gaze seriously into her eyes. “So you think I’m still a kid, huh? I might not have a lot of experience in relationship matters, but even I know that it’s best to enjoy some time to ourselves first before having a kid. If possible, I want us two to have more quality time together, but since our baby decided to meet us earlier…then I’ll do my best to welcome him with you.”
Corinne thought Jeremy looked cute when he spoke so seriously about relationship matters. She stood up and held his handsome face. “Don’t worry, Mister, I promise you I’ll still have time for you after the baby comes. I’ll split my attention fifty -fifty with you and the baby.”
Jeremy wrapped his arm around her tiny waist and pulled her to sit on his lap. “But what about now? I mean, I have to hold myself back from ravaging because of the baby,” he whispered into her ear.
Knowing what he meant, Corinne immediately blushed. “Here you go again, Mister. Is that all you can think about now that your turnmy is full? If I had known this would happen, I would’ve let you go hungry…”
“I’m a man after all, so it’s normal for my mind to go there after filling my stomach…” He then nuzzled her face and gently kissed her from the earlobe to the corner of her lips.

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...
