Beatrice's words were obviously intended for Stella. After all, she knew Lucas the best. He would not have waited until then if he had feelings for Stella. The two have known each other for a long time, and Lucas had always been indifferent to Stella. In fact, he did not like her at all.
Unfortunately, Stella was too deep in her delusion. Thus, Beatrice had it in her mind that she would make it clear to her that she would never allow her to marry into the family.
After casting a seemingly benevolent glance at Stella, Beatrice led Melody away protectively.
Stella discreetly glanced at the old lady and Melody's retreating figures before inviting Lucas to sit on the sofa with her.
Even though Lucas grunted in agreement, he chose not to sit next to her. Instead, he settled on a nearby armchair.
Stella felt a bit unhappy, but it did not matter. They were the only two in the living room, so what difference did it make if they were seated far apart?
'Finally, we're the only ones here! As long as I bring up the experiences we've shared in the past, it'll surely rekindle Lucas' affection for me. Who cares about Melody? Lucas and I are meant for each other!' thought Stella.
With that in mind, Stella sweetly said, "Lucas, do you remember the first time we met when we were kids..."
"Mister Lucas, this document needs urgent attention, and we need you to review it personally."
Edmund suddenly appeared. He swiftly strode over to Lucas as if Stella was invisible, handed him the iPad in his hand, and interrupted Stella's attempt to reminisce about the past.

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...
