Upon hearing this, Lucas glanced at Melody. He then shook his head, saying, "I have to attend a meeting at work tomorrow."
"What about the day after tomorrow? I'm quite free for the next few days," Stella cheekily replied. "You know my schedule is always packed with shoots, so it's rare for me to have so many days off."
Lucas intended to refuse, but the thought of Stella's father once saving him made him hesitate.
Seeing that he did not respond, Stella flashed a radiant smile at him, thinking that he was agreeing to go out with her. She then glanced at Melody while saying, "You're the best, Lucas! I'll text you the time and location, then."
Melody felt quite uncomfortable at listening to her 'husband' discussing a date with another woman. However, she knew she had no right to say anything.
Stella felt a dark sense of satisfaction when she saw the change in Melody's expression. Despite Melody and Lucas flirting with each other earlier, Stella emerged as the victor.
Stella lowered her head and noticed the glass Lucas had just drunk from. Suddenly, an idea formed in her mind.
"What's wrong with the food here today? It all tastes so salty," said Stella with disgust. She then reached for Lucas' glass and brought it to her lips to take a sip.
Melody's eyes widened when she saw what Stella did. The glass Stella had just drank from was the one Lucas had used in front of both of them. Melody refused to believe Stella mistook this fact.
'Stella picked up the cup Lucas had drunk from and took a sip herself. What's she trying to achieve? An indirect kiss?'
Melody bit her lip, lowered her head, and let out a scoff.
'She's really shameless! Drinking from the same glass as a married man is akin to an indirect kiss, no?'
Lucas noticed Stella had drunk from his glass as well. He had every intention to stop her, but before he could do so, Stella had already taken a sip.
Lucas' eyes darkened. His hand paused midair before he withdrew it.

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...
