The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1976

At that moment, Melody seemed like a completely different person from the one who ignored him at the door.

Lucas gazed at her with probing eyes.

'What's wrong with her again?' Lucas wondered.

Melody noticed his gaze and nervously asked, "What's wrong? Don't you like this dish?"

"No, I love it!" Lucas picked up a forkful and tasted it.

Despite their personal feelings, they had to keep their act in front of Cedric and Beatrice.

Throughout the meal, Melody played the role of the ideal wife, serving Lucas with unwavering devotion. Lucas, in turn, accepted everything she offered, even though there were a few dishes he was not particularly fond of.

Beatrice had her doubts about whether there was some conflict between the two, but as she observed their interactions, she became more at ease.

After the meal, Melody found an excuse to go back to their room. Playing the act of a devoted wife was draining. She found the whole thing quite cringy and nauseating.

Lucas entered their room just after Melody finished showering.

Melody combed her hair, which she had just blown-dry, and sat on the edge of the bed. She then said nonchalantly, "Grandpa and Grandma probably haven't returned to their room yet, so you should wait a bit before going to sleep in the guest room later."

In the past few days, Lucas had not been home much. Even when he was back, he always slept in the guest room. Consequently, they hardly get to spend much time in the same room.

After a brief acknowledgment, Lucas headed to the bathroom for a shower.

When he came out, Melody was sitting on the balcony with a cup of milk on the table.
