The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1933
Melody nodded with a bitter smile. "When I got to the club, they said they were stuck in traffic and asked me to go in first. I know my mom favors my sister, but I never expected her to put me in harm's way. I guess I was just too naive. They planned from the beginning to offer me to William like some sacrificial lamb."
Lucas narrowed his eyes. At this moment, he pitied Melody.
He could not fathom what kind of parents would plot against their own daughter, treating her as a sacrifice to an older man for the sake of her sister.
'If that's the case, the night when we first met... Was she also manipulated by her family? Is she just an object that can be passed on from one man to another in her parents' eyes?' wondered Lucas.
After a long silence, Lucas finally said, "If you need, I can accompany you back to your family's home. I'm sure they pull a stunt like this anymore once they know you're married to a Rivera."
Melody looked up at Lucas in surprise. She only wanted to clear up the misunderstanding, not play the victim. Unexpectedly, Lucas was willing to stand up for her. After all, apart from that one night, they were practically strangers, not even friends.
Although Lucas' offer deeply touched Melody, she could not bring herself to accept it.
Lucas could indeed step in and warn her family, making them afraid and ensuring they would not force her into such situations again. Alas, Melody knew the true nature of her family. Once they caught wind of her connection to the Riveras, they would use that as an opportunity to climb the social ladder. They would stop at nothing to force Melody to use the Riveras' status for Wendy's benefit.
Moreover, Melody was not genuinely a Missus Rivera. Their relationship was just a contractual agreement.

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...
