Shaun sounded so sincere that Melody felt bad about turning down Shaun Tate's offer. Still, she was firm in her stance. "I'm sorry, Mister Shaun, but I have no acting experience. To be honest, I'm quite bad at it. I'd hate to cause any problems for the movie."
"Please don't turn me down just that. Why don't you listen to what we have to offer first?" Shaun tried to tempt her with the offer. "If you play the female lead, you'll be paid three million dollars. I'll also arrange an assistant to take care of everything for you in the film set."
Three million dollars? That was just the amount Melody needed!
She never expected that she could easily earn three million dollars just by playing a role in a movie. She could pay off her debt if she took the role, and she would be debt-free!
It was just a movie. No big deal, right? She could give it a try, and if it did not work for her, she could just quit.
"Alright." After a long hesitation, Melody decided to give acting a shot for the sake of money. "But let me make it clear: I have no acting experience at all, so don't blame me if things end up badly."
"Don't worry, I have an eye for my leading roles. Besides, you'll have me to guide you!" Shaun beamed with joy when Melody finally accepted his offer. "So, Miss Melody, I'll get Jelena to send you the time and address, so you can come over to sign the contract."
"Okay. I'll be there."
Melody hung up the phone and started to worry about another problem. She agreed to take the job for the sake of three million dollars, but how was she going to tell Lucas about it?
Lucas never wanted her to get a job, let alone become an actress. Besides, what if someone found out that Missus Rivera took a role in a movie for the sake of money? There was no guarantee what they would say about the Rivera family then.

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...
