Melody hesitated to enter the car. It was only when the car behind honked at Sherman that she hopped in. "Sorry," she mumbled.
"You don't need to apologize. It's not like you did anything wrong," Sherman reassured her as he continued to drive. "Let me send you home. Did you move in with Lucas, or are you staying at the Riveras' estate?"
Melody froze as she adjusted her skirt and said with a smile, "At the Riveras' estate. You should know where it is, right? You can just drop me there."
"Yeah," Sherman answered with a wry smile. The remaining journey was silent, up until they reached the destination.
Sherman parked the car and suggested, "Let's exchange numbers. It'd be great if we could grab coffee sometime in the future."
Melody nodded and exchanged numbers with him.
Sherman tucked his phone away and said with a smile. "It was good seeing you today, Melody. Take care."
Melody waved goodbye and went into the Riveras' estate.
Sherman felt a combination of bitterness and regret as he looked at her walk past the gates. He wondered if things would turn out differently if he had returned sooner.
Melody was unaware of his thoughts, however. She was exhausted after going through so much that day, especially since she had to wear a fancy dress and high heels. The emotional rollercoaster she just experienced weighed even heavier on her mind. She had previously made a firm decision to confess to Sherman if she ever had the good fortune of meeting him again. Unfortunately, her situation rendered that impossible, and she felt unworthy of someone like him.

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...
