The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1979
Just as Melody shut down her laptop, she received a call from Sherman. She hesitated for a moment before answering the call.
Yes, Melody promised Lucas not to have too much contact with him, but it should be fine for her to talk to an old friend over the phone… No?
"Hello, Sherman."
"Melody, are you busy?"
"Not really. What's up? Why are you calling?"
"Melody, I was wondering if you've reconsidered joining our company?" Sherman had not given up on recruiting her. "Although Parr Group may not be one of the top companies, the overall benefits are good. Won't you give it another thought?"
The role of Advertising Director at Parr Group was indeed a sought-after position. However, Melody promised Lucas not to have too much contact with Sherman, so she could not go back on her word.
"Sherman, I really can't work at Parr Group. Thank you for your offer, but I'm sorry," replied Melody.
There was a moment of silence on Sherman's end, and he sighed. "Alright, then. Though, Wendy can't come to shoot because you've injured her face, and we can't find a suitable replacement on such short notice. The firm will have to pay a hefty penalty if we can't finish the advertisement by the time stipulated in the contract."
"What?!" Melody felt a pang of guilt at the realization of causing such heavy damage. Sherman had always been very considerate and helpful to her, so she did not want to be a source of trouble for him.
"Sherman, I'm sorry... Is there anything I can do to make amends?" Melody asked.
"No, Sherman! I... I was just joking!" Melody, realizing her misunderstanding, felt embarrassed and quickly found an excuse to cover her awkwardness.
Sherman stopped laughing. "Melody, what I meant is that my company needs a suitable actress for the advertisement. Since Wendy is out for the count, and you two share some resemblance being sisters, how about you step in for the shooting?"
"Me, in a commercial shooting?" Melody frowned doubtfully. "But I've never done shooting before, and I don't have much fame. I don't think I'm the right person for the role."
"Melody, you can do it. If you don't help me now, my company will really incur significant losses!"
'I'll definitely have some contact with Sherman if I go to Parr Group for the shooting. Lucas is gonna blow his top if he finds out,' thought Melody.

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...
