The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2021

Stella smilingly replied, "Miss Melody isn't just my friend; she's also friends with Lucas! You must've heard some good things about Melody from Lucas, right?"

With a smile, she walked up to Lucas and looked down at him. "Otherwise, Lucas wouldn't be here today, right?"

Stella kept staring at him, hoping to detect some different expressions on his face. However, she saw nothing.

Lucas maintained a stern expression, his gaze fixed on a certain spot. "If you have something to say, say it directly. I don't like people who beat around the bush."

"I didn't mean anything else!" Stella sounded somewhat disappointed. She found another chair and sat down. "I just feel quite useless."

Stella lowered her head, chuckled self-deprecatingly, and said, "Miss Melody is so good at mollifying people. You've only known her for a short time, yet she has managed to get you to secure a role for her."

This time, Lucas' expression changed. He looked at Stella and asked, "You think I helped her get this role?"

"It's okay, Lucas. I know Miss Melody just entered the industry and needs this opportunity. It'll certainly make it easier for her to gain a footing in the industry if you help her. She won't have to run around like I did back then, begging for endorsements."

Stella smiled bitterly, but her eyes looked like they were about to cry.

"I didn't help her. She got this role on her own," Lucas said, his gaze darkening as he thought of Melody. "I was willing to help her, but she didn't want to rely on me."

Stella was somewhat surprised. After a moment of contemplation, she could not bring herself to believe Lucas' words.
