The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1915

Beatrice's question made Melody uneasy. How on earth could she explain to Beatrice that their meeting was the result of a one-night stand because she entered the wrong room last night?

Lucas had not briefed her on how to handle this situation, so she was scrambling for the right words.

"We..." After a prolonged pause, Melody finally said, "This one time, I ran into some trouble, and Lucas helped me out. I thanked him afterward, and, well…we got to know each other."

She deliberately made her answer general enough so as to not cause suspicions.

"Really?" Beatrice eyed Melody skeptically. "I never thought of Lucas as the heroic type."

Melody silently agreed with Beatrice. Lucas appeared aloof and uninterested in others' affairs.

Melody forced a laugh and said, "Perhaps it's just fate, you know…"

She had to spin a little tale without giving too much away.

'Seems like she's different from the previous women around Lucas,' thought Beatrice as she observed Melody's sweet demeanor.

Of course, they had sent someone to dig into the Sanders. Rumors about Melody's not-so-great reputation with Sanders had reached them, but the Melody standing before them seemed like a different person.

As Melody felt Cedric and Beatrice's gazes on her, she became a bit uneasy, fearing that they might see through her. She stood up and said, "Grandpa, Grandma, it's almost dinner time. How about I make you some dinner?"

"You can cook?" asked Beatrice with surprise.

"Yeah. I'm pretty good at it, too!"
