"How would I know when she debuted? Dad, I just feel like she's been plotting against me all along. She refuses to leave us alone! She'll only get more out of hand in the future if you don't put her in her place this time!"
Wendy was furious. Her eyes were red, and anyone unaware might think she had truly suffered a great injustice. "Dad, I have a way to deal with her, but I don't know if you're willing to help me."
Ethan looked at her doubtfully. "What's your plan?"
"It's..." Wendy approached Ethan and shared her plan with him.
After a moment, Ethan nodded and permitted her to carry out the plan.

Melody was dining with Sherman at a restaurant near their old high school. They reflected on the old days, so the mealtime was very enjoyable. Melody felt less reserved than before, too.
After the meal, Sherman offered to drive Melody home. However, she declined again.
"Sorry, Sherman. I know you mean well, but Lucas doesn't like me getting too close to other guys. It might lead to another round of misunderstanding if he sees us together. I'll just take a taxi home," she explained.
Sherman did not insist further. He went with her to get a taxi and watched her leave before walking alone to the entrance of the high school.
As Sherman took in the familiar sights of the campus, a swirl of emotions tugged at his heart.
'Is it really impossible to undo those missed chances?' wondered Sherman.
Melody took a taxi back home, only to find Lucas waiting for her in the living room with a stern expression.
'Why is he back today?' Melody wondered curiously.
She was not quite used to him being at home, so she walked in slowly. "Lucas? How come you're back today?"

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...
