The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1951

Melody felt a little awkward as she recalled Lucas' curt words to Sherman. The inferiority that she felt around Sherman during high school only intensified.

"Why are you alone? Where's Lucas?" Sherman was a little surprised to see Melody by herself, but his graceful smile quickly returned.

Melody reciprocated with a smile and said, "Lucas is chatting with a friend, so I decided to go for a walk on my own."

"A friend... Are you referring to Stella?" Sherman asked pensively.

Melody's expression soured at the mention of Stella's name. It seemed all too clear that Stella was indeed Lucas' childhood sweetheart. Otherwise, those around him—say, his cousin Sherman—would not have made the association that it was Stella right off the bat.

"You met her already, I take it?" Sherman went forward. "She's a celebrity with plenty of fans."

Melody nodded. "I have. She's beautiful, but I didn't recognize her at first glance because I don't usually keep up with the entertainment news."

"If I remember correctly, you never kept up with such news even when you were in high school. Other girls crushed on celebrities, but you didn't seem interested at all. You're still the same even after all these years."

She used to be a loner in senior high and never seemed to fit in with the crowd.

"I was just focused on my studies, so I didn't have time for all that," she replied with a smile and omitted any mention of the stress she had to face. It was not like she ever had a good time, anyway.

"Then…" Sherman hesitated before finally asking his question. "Then how did you and Lucas get together?"
