'So he still came.'
Jason toned down his provocativeness when he saw Lucas walking in. "Lucas, I've known you for many years, but this is the first time I've seen you like this," he said teasingly.
Lucas glanced at him. "I guess anything could happen, huh?"
Jason smiled and went up to support him. "Here. Let me help you, Lucas. It pains me to see you like this."
Lucas scoffed, but he did not turn down his offer.
Corinne looked at the two of them and fell into a deep thought. 'It's just as Tommy said. Jason and Lucas are indeed closer to each other. At least they can joke around, far from Jason and Jeremy's relationship. If going by that vein, Jeremy, Zeke, and Gerald are closer too since they always roast each other.'
Previously, Corinne thought the five guys were all good friends since they knew each other from a young age. She never thought they would form cliques among themselves too.
Lucas sat down and looked at Corinne sternly. "Why didn't you tell me you were coming here?"
Corinne remained unfazed. She took a sip of her soup before replying, "But you still found out I'm here, right?"
"Don't you know how worried I was about you?"
Lucas did not understand why Corinne would still come to the summer villa to meet Phoebe alone when Phoebe had teamed up with Anya to hurt her in the past. Even though he learned it was to get Joey's custody, he was still angry at her for not thinking about her safety. What if something bad happened again? It would be too late for regrets then!
Corinne scoffed. "There's no need to worry about me since we're neither friends nor family! I hope you'll remember that in the future and stop meddling in my affairs!"
Lucas was struck speechless again.
Jason had never seen anyone speak so brazenly to Lucas before, so this exchange was interesting. At first, he did wonder whether Lucas had a crush on Corinne since he seemed to treat her differently than others. Then again, he knew Lucas did not really go for the cute, petite girls so…
After observing for some time, he guessed Corinne must be Lucas' long-lost sister. After all, only his long-lost sister could humble him to such a state.
"And here I thought you came here to find me, Lucas. It looks like you coming here has nothing to do with me at all," teased Jason.

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...
