The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1985

As expected, Beatrice saw the rumors even though Lucas had buried those stories.

"Grandma, I'm sorry for troubling the family again," Melody apologized.

Beatrice smiled and took a sip from her tea cup. "Silly girl, I’m not here to blame you. You're family now, so your problems are our problems. It's just that I don't know how to respond to those who ask me about this."

Melody did not expect Beatrice to embrace her as a part of the family. In fact, she had expected Beatrice to give her a harsh scolding. Thus, she was immensely touched, and her guilt intensified at the same time.

Beatrice was so kind to her, yet she dragged them into this mess.

"Grandma, things are not as they're portrayed online. Those photos were taken out of context, and the man in the photos was my senior in high school. We're nothing more than friends," Melody explained.

She knew her explanation sounded feeble, but it was the best she could do. She just hoped Beatrice would believe her.

"Grandma, I have a way of proving my innocence. Wait for my return."

Instead of relying on such feeble explanations, Melody decided to find evidence as soon as possible to prove her innocence.

Melody got up and hurriedly ran out the door. She then got into the car Lucas had arranged for her. "Edmund, take me to Parr Group."

"Miss Melody, Mister Lucas has instructed me to take you somewhere else first."

Melody was taken aback. "What? Where?"

Edmund did not answer but simply drove the car away.

20 minutes later, they arrived at city hall. "Miss Melody, Mister Lucas is waiting for you inside."
