Lucas checked the time and stood up. "Let's go. We can go in now."
They gave their tickets to the usher and found their seats. To let them experience the life of an ordinary couple, Beatrice deliberately chose a regular screening, and the surrounding seats were all occupied.
Lucas, dressed in a black suit, looked a bit out of place among the casually dressed crowd.
Seeing his somewhat awkward expression, Melody could not help but smile and leaned in close to him. "I bet you're regretting not changing into casual clothes before coming out. Ordinary people rarely wear suits for leisure."
"Just watch the movie," Lucas said with a straight face, pushing her head back with his hand.
Melody touched her head and then sat quietly watching the movie. As the movie began, it turned out to be a romantic love story. It seemed that Beatrice had spent a long time selecting a movie to enhance the relationship between the two.
"Hey." Not long after the movie started, Lucas's phone rang. He answered it in a hushed tone, "Now?"
Melody turned her head to look at him, seemingly aware of who might be on the other end of the call.
After hanging up the phone, Lucas looked somewhat uneasy and gave Melody a meaningful glance.
Melody realized what was happening and quickly smiled. She leaned toward him and whispered, "It's okay. Go ahead if you have something to attend to. I can watch the movie on my own. If Grandma asks later, I'll cover for you."
The call was from Stella. She was injured on the set and hoped Lucas could come over.

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...
