Unpredictably, someone who had shown kindness to her could turn out to be a ruthless murderer in the blink of an eye.
"Don't overthink it. The thoughts of a murderer aren't something you can comprehend. Just know that she's been detained by the police, and she will face legal consequences. After she's sentenced, you can return to the set. Otherwise, I worry there might be more unexpected incidents," said Lucas.
After a moment of silence, he tentatively continued, "Do you really want to continue filming this movie?"
In a short span, Melody had been asked this question twice by two different people, and she had been struggling with the answer.
When Sherman questioned her, she was more annoyed. However, when Lucas asked the same question, she finally had the answer in her heart. 'War Song' was her first movie, so naturally, she wanted to see it through to the end.
Yet, with so many incidents occurring consecutively on the set, she truly did not know if her perseverance was the right choice.
Melody sighed deeply; her gaze was complicated.
In the end, she told Lucas, "Give me some more time to think. If I really can't persist..."
Lucas nodded, preparing to get up and leave. "Alright, take your time. Thalia is waiting for me in the car. I'll go and drive her home first."
Melody clenched her fists under the blanket. She avoided eye contact with Lucas and did not respond. After a while, she heard the sound of the door closing.
There was no sound in the empty hospital room, confirming that Lucas had indeed left. Melody felt a bitter taste in her heart. She knew she had no right to question why Thalia chose to come back at this critical moment.
There was no reason, seeing as Lucas had plenty of time to spend with both of them each year. She could not help but feel like she was the third wheel in that situation.

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...
