Lucas' pupils shrank. 'So he's finally come back to life,' he thought while looking at Jeremy. 'But what does he mean that Rosie doesn't need to turn herself in?'
Jeremy lifted his head slightly to look at Rosie. His eyes were hollow, yet the intensity in his eyes was enough to kill with just one look. He slowly walked toward Rosie, who was sitting on the floor. Once there, he bent down and lifted her by the collar.
"I'm going to make her pay with her life!" he roared before dragging her to the end of the corridor.
Anya's heart nearly jumped out when she saw how terrifying Jeremy was. However, her fright was quickly overpowered by relief once she realized she was safe. In fact, Jeremy getting rid of Rosie would work out in her favor since that meant she would not have to worry about Rosie testifying against her in the future.
Lucas watched as Jeremy, who was not obviously in his right mind, dragged Rosie away. As much as he understood how Jeremy felt at that moment, he could not let him commit a crime. Besides, Corinne would not have wanted Jeremy to kill a person because of her either. Thus, Lucas started chasing after them.
'No, Jeremy. Don't act rashly. Let the law decide what to do with her!' he cried internally. He hoped to reach them in time to stop Jeremy from killing Rosie.
Anya smiled in relief when she saw Lucas and Jeremy both gone. She was already in a good mood after getting rid of Corinne, but her mood only improved once she knew Rosie would be out of the picture, too. After all, she would not have to worry about Rosie taking revenge on her in the future.
'Now that they're all gone, I can finally check on Corinne! I have to admit that b*tch is prettier than me even without makeup on, but getting run over by a car should've damaged her face, right?' she thought.
She was about to push the door open when it swung open from the inside. A couple of nurses were wheeling a dead body covered in white cloth out of the surgery room.
One of them frowned when she saw Anya blocking their path. "Excuse me, miss, but could you move out of the way? We need to quickly take this deceased patient to the morgue."
The nurse was moved by Anya's pure-heartedness and bravery. 'They must've been really good friends,' she thought.
"Very well, then. Please follow us this way," she said.
Thus, the nurses wheeled Corinne's dead body to the morgue with Anya following from behind.
It was freezing in the morgue. The air-conditioners were in full blast to keep the dead bodies from rotting.

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...
