Corinne smiled. "Well, the press conference has ended, so I thought I'd drop by to wrap up a few things with Miss Anya and Miss Phoebe. Though, it seems like I've come at a bad time. Should I…come again another day?"
Beatrice quickly waved for her to come in. "Oh, Corinne, you're always welcome here. Come in, come in! My husband and son were just having a little tiff, and I was just worried that you might've been frightened by it."
Corinne walked over to Beatrice and glanced at Cedric, who was still fuming, before looking up at Maxwell, who was at the stairs.
"Mister Maxwell, you're a grown man. You shouldn't argue with Grandpa Cedric so much. It's really not that nice."
Normally, Maxwell would simply go into his room even when there was a guest in the house. Because it was Corinne this time, he walked back into the living room.
Maxwell looked at her kindly. "You must be tired after the test. Why not go home to rest now? I saw you dozing off at the press conference. Did you not sleep well last night?"
Corinne chuckled. "You watched the live broadcast of the test, too?"
Maxwell nodded. "Yeah, I watched it together with my parents."
Corinne nodded. "Cool."
Beatrice was surprised Maxwell would come back into the living room for Corinne. After snapping out of her trance, she said, "Come sit, Corinne. You too, Maxwell. I'm sure Corinne would be too embarrassed to sit if you keep standing there like that."
"Okay," said Maxwell. He sat back down on the sofa. "Corinne, please take a seat, too."

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...
