The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1916

Upon hearing Beatrice's words, Melody finally learned why Lucas wanted to marry her. After all, she did not believe that he was the type of guy who would feel responsible for her just because they had a one-night stand, nor did she think he lacked any potential marriage candidates.

'No wonder Lucas rushed into this marriage proposal. It seems his family is really pressuring him, and he needed a quick solution,' thought Melody.

"Melody, I can tell you're a good girl. With you by his side, we can have a bit more peace of mind," said Beatrice.

Facing Beatrice's goodwill, Melody felt a pang of guilt. Her marriage to Lucas was built on a lie, and she wondered how she would ever face Beatrice after the inevitable divorce from Lucas a year later.

Beatrice shared some heartfelt advice during their stroll. She then had a servant take Melody to rest in Lucas' room.

'Am I dreaming?' Melody could not help but marvel at the room much larger than her old one.

Just a while ago, she had been living in a small makeshift bedroom in the Sanders' residence, but in the blink of an eye, she found herself in this luxurious and spacious room.

The sudden change left her feeling both out of place and slightly overwhelmed. After a moment of silence, Melody decided to take a shower. She changed into a more conservative set of pajamas, and with nothing else to do, she laid down on the bed to rest.

Initially, she felt a bit anxious about how to face Lucas when he returned. However, it did not take long for drowsiness to take over, and she drifted off into a hazy sleep.

After a restful night's sleep, Melody woke up the next day to find that Lucas had not returned. The other half of the bed showed no signs of anyone sleeping in it, which brought her a sense of relief.

In truth, she was not quite ready to share a bed with a stranger.

Noticing it was still early, Melody decided to head downstairs to the kitchen. As she entered the kitchen, a maid was already preparing breakfast.

Melody smiled and walked over. "I'll take care of this."
