After a whole day of investigation, Adam finally tracked down his wife and daughter's whereabouts and got there as fast as he could.
When he arrived at the place, he rang the doorbell. After a while, he could hear footsteps approaching.
"Coming!" said Lilin.
Lilin rushed to the door, thinking that it was the food delivery they ordered.
When she opened the door and saw the solemn face of her father, she was startled for only one second before she slammed the door shut.
"Li…" Adam hardly finished uttering his daughter's name when the door was slammed in his face. He took a deep breath to calm his anger and rang the doorbell again.
This time, no one opened the door.
"Mister Adam, should we kick the door open?" asked one of his men when he saw Adam's face had contorted out of rage.
Adam waved his hand and said sternly, "No. She hates it when people do that. Go out and wait for me there."
"Yes, sir!" The men nodded and left Adam alone.
Adam sighed and continued to ring the doorbell repeatedly. He knew they would have to open the door at some point.
20 minutes had passed, but the door remained closed. Adam was running out of patience.
"Lilin, my dear girl, I knew you'd open the door for me! Good thing you're unlike your cold-hearted mother."
Lilin rolled her eyes, collected her takeout from the delivery man politely, and entered the house without talking to Adam.
Adam's smile disappeared instantly. Since Lilin left the door open, he took it as he was allowed to go in as well.
Lilin took the takeout to the sofa, planning to enjoy it with Melinda.
Adam walked in and glanced around the interior of the room. When he approached his wife and daughter, who were eating fast food, he frowned and said, "This is where you've been staying with our daughter? Why, it's so cramped and shabby! And how can you let her eat those unhealthy fast foods? I thought you'd be better off without me!"
Melinda was so annoyed by Adam's words that she lost her usual graciousness. She glared at him coldly.

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...
