Initially, Corinne wanted to say goodbye to Mother Cathrina as well. Fearing she would interrupt her spiritual solemn moment, however, she decided to leave silently.
As soon as she walked out of the convent, she saw Tommy standing by the car talking on the phone. "Yes, Mister Jeremy. I understand, Mister Jeremy. I'll make sure Miss Corinne is safe at all costs."
Corinne frowned. 'Looks like Tommy has told Mister where I am. But why didn't he call or text me?'
She was finding it harder not to think that Jeremy did not care about her at all. Moreover, the Jeremy she knew was a man who was quick to be jealous, so how could he not spam her with calls the second he knew she was with Jason?
'Maybe it's true what Mother Cathrina says; all men will eventually get sick of their wives. The only reason he's asking Tommy to protect me is not because of me but the baby I'm carrying,' thought Corinne.
She silently got into the car.
Jason immediately came rushing out of the convent and followed her into the car too. "Corinne, why didn't you wait for me?"
Corinne rolled her eyes at him. "Why should I wait for you? You should've come out the moment you finished eating."
"But I needed to ask Mother Cathrina for the convent's bank account. How should I know you'll leave without telling me?" whined Jason.
Jason shrugged. "Fine. I'll donate less than what I initially intended. When all's said and done, you wouldn't be where you are right now if it wasn't for this convent. So, I don't mind donating a little to this place. Even if the money ends up in Mother Kalista's hand, I'll just see it as thanking her for raising you."
Corinne frowned deeply and glared at him with great annoyance. "What does it have to do with you who raised me? Don't you think you should stop meddling in my business?"
Jason spread out his hand nonchalantly. "Is that how you think about me? Well… I guess there's nothing I can do about it."
Corinne rolled her eyes. "Then I suggest you don't donate to the convent at all! Mother Kalista never took care of me. The only person who ever cared for me was Mother Cathrina! I know you're rich, Jason, but why don't you keep all that money for your future wife!"

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...
