"The driver is taking Stella? What about you?" Judging from the expression on Lucas' face, Melody figured he was not planning to leave. "Don't... Don't tell me you're planning to take the bus with me?"
Lucas turned to look at her and nodded. "What? Am I not allowed to do so?"
"No, that wasn't what I meant." Melody glanced around and leaned in, lowering her voice. "It's just that you're the president of Rivera Group, so isn't taking the bus a bit beneath you?"
Seeing her acting furtively, Lucas narrowed his eyes. "Is there a law saying that people of my status can't take the bus?"
"Of course not." Melody straightened herself and decided not to dwell on the fact that he was taking the bus.
Melody was, however, secretly pleased. The fact that he was there at least proved that he was not that concerned about Stella.
The bus arrived around 15 minutes later, and the two of them boarded.
To Melody's surprise, there were many passengers on the bus. After all, it was not rush hour. The two of them were almost squeezed onto the bus, and Melody found herself pushed into a corner.
She turned to glance at Lucas, who was beside her. He had completely lost the calm demeanor he had just moments ago with a frown plastered on his face.
Melody lowered her gaze, chuckling mischievously. She then teased him in a hushed tone, "What's the matter, Lucas? The life of ordinary folks not suiting you?"
It was Lucas' first time taking a bus, and he had not expected it to be so crowded. The bus was packed to the point that he could not even find a place to stand.
"Ouch!" Melody was jostled by someone behind her, causing her to fall onto Lucas' arm.

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...
