The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1949
It seemed that Lucas was not keen on letting Stella know the truth of their relationship.
"Friend? As in, 'girlfriend' or just a normal friend?" Stella teased.
"Just a normal friend," Lucas replied without hesitation.
Melody reacted somewhat awkwardly and pursed her lips. "Yes. Mister Lucas and I are friends—new friends, I might add. I heard about this event and persuaded him to bring me along and experience the sights. I hope you don't misunderstand our relationship."
Since Lucas did not want Stella to know about them, she dutifully played along with him.
Stella did not seem to have any particular reaction toward Melody's remark and reached out to hold Lucas' hand. "A friend of Lucas is a friend of mine. Speaking of which, what was your name again?"
"My name's Melody," she answered. Despite playing the role of Lucas' wife for so long, she had never been so intimate with him in public. He was, after all, averse to physical contact with members of the opposite gender, yet he neither flinched nor pulled away when Stella held her. The intimacy between them was so different from his usual reserved demeanor, and Melody felt indescribably uneasy because of that.
"Nice to meet you, Melody. Since you're Lucas' friend, then please come with me." Stella smiled magnanimously and brought Lucas to the second floor.
Then, Stella appeared beside her and extended a glass of red wine. "Why are you drinking juice when there's wine to be shared?"
Melody took the glass with a grateful smile. "Thanks, but I'm not much of a drinker."
"Loosen up, Melody," Stella insisted and clinked her glass against Melody's. "These people here and friends of myself and Lucas. Just relax and enjoy the night."
Though Melody had already made it clear that she did not drink, she felt that it would be incredibly rude to refuse, especially when Stella had already clinked glasses with her. In the end, she gave in and took a small sip.

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...
