Of course, along with the overwhelming praise, there were also some sarcastic and biting comments, mostly from Stella's fans. Shaun's fame, coupled with Melody's acting skills, and the platform-wide promotion kept the popularity high on her personal account.
Lucas, who was in the Rivera Group building, also saw Melody receiving widespread acclaim for her acting.
The first time he watched behind-the-scenes footage of Melody shooting, it was a completely different experience from seeing her perform live. He seemed to have turned into an ordinary audience, captivated by her every expression and movement. She transformed into a different person.
After a long pause, he sent Melody a message. [Congratulations on receiving public recognition for your acting. Keep up the good work.]
Melody happened to be scrolling on her phone when Lucas' message popped on the screen. As she read the message, the smile on her face froze.
'Isn't he supposed to be delivering food to Stella? How does he still have time to pay attention to me?' she wondered. 'Huh! I gotta hand it to him for his time management skills.'
Melody thought that Lucas had only glanced at the headlines in between delivering food for Stella, hence the 'insincere' message he sent her. He probably did not know what she had acted in.
Melody took a deep breath and simply replied, [Thank you.]
As for anything else, she did not want to bother.
…
Lucas was sitting with his legs crossed lazily waiting for Melody's reply, only to be greeted with the two words, [Thank you.]
'Is that all? Is she not going to share any insights from the shoot with me? Doesn't she have anything to tell me about her being the most trending topic?'

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...
