The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2050

"What does that mean? It's just the literal meaning," Melody sat on the nearby chair and frowned at him. "Do I have to remind you of the things you do yourself?"

Lucas sat up from the bed with a stern face. "Melody, make your words clear. What do you mean by 'acting and pretending skills'? What am I pretending?"

The man in front of her was two-faced, saying one thing in public and another behind her back. Denying the things he had done was not a good trait. She realized she idealized him too much.

"What else do you want me to say?" Melody was determined today and gave Lucas no mercy. "You're just good at pretending, at everything. Lucas, can't you be more genuine?"

Lucas had no idea what he had done to make her say such things. "Genuine? Like what?"

"You and Stella clearly have more than just a casual friendship, yet you pretend to be just friends in front of me. Isn't that pretending?"

This again.

Lucas felt irritated. He had explained this matter countless times, but Melody still did not believe him because of it. "Melody, let me tell you one last time: Stella and I are truly just friends."

After saying this, Lucas stood up. "Making a fuss out of nothing!"

He left the room and went straight to the study. Melody was left in the room, feeling upset. She could not sleep the whole night.

Beatrice, clearly dissatisfied with his response, set the scissors aside and scrutinized him. "You've been with Lucas all this time, not just assisting him with work. What exactly transpired between Lucas and Melody? You'd better tell me now."

Beatrice turned to Edmund, her gaze piercing. "So, are you ready to tell the truth now?"

Edmund genuinely wanted to shield Lucas, but under Beatrice's intense scrutiny, concealing the matter seemed impossible. "Well, it's not a significant issue...just a misunderstanding between Miss Melody and Mister Lucas regarding his relationship with Miss Stella. That's what caused a bit of discord."

Upon hearing Edmund's explanation, Beatrice finally grasped the situation. That tactless woman, Stella, had been getting too close to Lucas. For a while, Beatrice had even suspected that Lucas had a romantic interest in Stella.
