'I better stop crying lest Grandpa and Grandma worry about me again,' thought Melody.
As soon as Beatrice stood in front of her, she noticed Melody's eyes were noticeably redder than usual and immediately held her hand.
"What happened? Why are you crying out of the blue?" Beatrice asked.
Melody forcibly smiled and shook her head. "It's nothing. I'm not crying. It's just that the wind here is so strong and it irritated my eyes. Grandma, please hurry and have everyone spread out to search. Lucas had also gone into the forest. I didn't dare to act recklessly, so I had no choice but to wait for her to arrive."
Beatrice and Cedric's faces turned grim upon hearing that even Lucas had rushed into the forest.
"How stupid can that boy get? Does he really think he'll be able to find Thalia when he's so poorly equipped? The most important thing to do in this kind of situation is to stay calm, yet he recklessly charged into the forest!"
Melody remained silent. She had already advised him, only to receive a scolding. Thus, she did not want to speak up for him.
"You guys go this way, and you guys go along that path. Be sure to stay in touch, and stay vigilant! Got it?" instructed Cedric to the servants.
Melody was very worried and wanted to follow one of the search teams into the forest, but Beatrice and Cedric would not let her do that.
"My child, you can't go. Stay with us outside. We've already sent two teams in, so let's just wait here. There's no need for everyone to go in," Beatrice said, holding Melody's hand tightly.
Melody's hands were icy, proof of the ordeal that she was going through.
'This Thalia is too impulsive for her own good. How could she just run into the forest without thinking of the consequences? Doesn't she know how much trouble she will cause others? Even if Lucas and Melody break up after this, I'll never let Thalia marry him!' thought Beatrice.
Of course, Beatrice hoped that Lucas and Melody could be together for a long time.
Meanwhile, Lucas walked in one direction, shouting as he went. When he reached the inner forest, he stopped and carefully listened for Thalia's voice.

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...
