The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 1995

After today's performance, Lucas seemed to see a different side of Melody. She used Wendy's desire to act to teach her a lesson in a process. Not to mention, she got leverage out of the whole thing as well. Melody was certainly more cunning than he gave her credit for.

"Me? Become an actress?" Melody found Lucas' question somewhat perplexing. She walked over, plugged the USB drive into the computer, and began copying the necessary surveillance videos. "Why would I? I'm not like Wendy, who dreams of becoming a famous actress and living the life of a big star. I don't want my every move to be excessively scrutinized by people."

Lucas chuckled softly. "Is that so? But I think you're more talented at acting than your sister. You'll have a bright future if you become an actress."

Melody realized that Lucas was teasing her. She thought about the scene she had just played with Wendy and felt somewhat flustered.

"If you're just going to sit here and mock me about this, I suggest you leave, Lucas."

"I'm not mocking you. You are a very good actress."

Melody rarely saw Lucas' smile, but she had to admit that he was indeed even more handsome when he was smiling.

'Well, if mocking me brings him, then I don't mind it at all. It's not like I'll lose anything if he mocks me,' thought Melody.

She shrugged it off and turned her attention to the progress bar on the computer. Neither of them spoke, and the control room became quiet.

Lucas gazed intensely at Melody's back.

At that point, the copying of the surveillance video was complete. Melody reached out to unplug the USB drive, saying, "Well, I didn't have breakfast or lunch today, so of course I'm hungry."

Lucas' brow creased. "Is it really worth skipping meals over such a trivial matter?"

Melody's expression became serious. "I've been waiting for the day to teach Wendy a lesson, so I had to make sure everything went according to plan."

Lucas understood the feeling of being falsely accused and knew how difficult it must be for Melody.

"Making her suffer isn't that difficult. Edmund can do it for you if you don't want to handle it yourself."
