Melody nodded. "My bag has been here all along. Anyone can come in here, and someone might've put this eyeshadow palette in my bag. I was with Mister Shaun. He was giving me some pointers about acting, and I haven't come back at all."
"Are you suggesting that someone is framing you?" The makeup artist dismissed her explanation and eyed her in disdain. "One might think you've watched too many dramas! Not everyone is out to get you, you know? Just who do you think you are?"
Melody felt that she could not explain things clearly to the makeup artist. The makeup artist refused to listen.
"Just think about it calmly. Would I put the eyeshadow palette in my own bag if I wanted to steal it?"
"That's enough. I'm pretty sure Melody didn't steal the eyeshadow palette. Anyway, you've found it, so hurry up and do her makeup," said Shaun.
Shaun knew Melody was Lucas' wife, even though Lucas had told him to keep it a secret. He could only try to downplay the situation as much as possible.
The makeup artist, feeling even more upset with Shaun's favoritism toward Melody, decided to ask bluntly, "Mister Shaun, what exactly is your relationship with Melody?"
Shaun was taken aback by the question. "What do you mean? My relationship with Melody is purely a professional working relationship. What else could it be?"
"Is it really? Who'd believe that?" The makeup artist sneered. "She's a newcomer, inexperienced and unprofessional. Just how did she get the female lead role in such a big project on her first acting gig?"

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...
