Melody was the instigator of the whole situation. She would feel immensely guilty if Sherman ended up losing money because of her.
After much hesitation, Melody succumbed to her sense of guilt and reluctantly agreed to Sherman's request. "Alright. But I'm not sure if I can make your client happy…"
"Don't worry! They'll definitely be happy with the change once they see how beautiful you are," said Sherman quickly. Next, he confirmed the shooting schedule with her.
Melody still felt a bit uneasy after hanging up the phone. 'Can I really do it?' she wondered.
Moreover, she had to keep it all a secret from Lucas. After all, it would surely lead to another argument if he found out. Therefore, Melody aimed to complete the shoot as quickly as possible and cut off contact with Sherman in the future.
Sherman promptly sent the script to Melody.
Melody immediately got to work memorizing the script to ensure that the shoot would go smoothly.
The fact that Lucas had not returned home in the past few days provided Melody with a sense of relief. It allowed her to focus on her task without the need to be discreet about it.
On the day of the shoot, Melody got up early and took extra time to make herself presentable before heading out.
"Melody, where are you going so early?" Beatrice asked as Melody was about to leave.
Melody turned and smiled sheepishly. "I need to run a few errands. I'll be eating out too, so there's no need to wait for me."
Beatrice did not press for details, only reminding her to be careful and to contact Edmund if needed.
"Yes, Grandma."

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...
