Stella was overjoyed to receive that message. She had sent those text messages as a probe. It was true that there was a power outage at her home, but there was also a backup power supply, so she had no reason to be 'afraid'.
Unexpectedly, without much begging, Lucas agreed to come to her house.
'So what if Lucas is with Melody? He still came running as soon as I asked him to,' she thought smugly.
This time, she was determined to turn things with Lucas into a reality. Humming a song, Stella got ready to welcome him.
…
Meanwhile, Cedric watched as Beatrice neatly packed her belongings. He followed her closely and asked, "Where are you going? Shall I go with you?"
"No, it's okay. You just stay at home and keep an eye on Lucas and Melody. I'll be back very soon."
…
Stella heard the doorbell ring.
Beatrice quickly covered the peephole.
Stella, in her excitement to see Lucas, never considered the possibility that the person on the other side of the door might not be him.

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...
